Pizzas.

7 rankings across New York City, built from 49 scored dishes. Pick the exact pizza you want — each ranking compares only that dish.

Best New York-Style Pizzas 10 dishes ranked Large round hand-tossed pie with a thin, foldable slice — crisp-bottomed, chewy cornicione, low-moisture mozzarella and a simple tomato sauce. Sold by the slice or as an 18-20 inch pie. Not Detroit square, not Neapolitan.

#1 House Slice Mama's Too · Upper West Side, Manhattan 9.1 High confidence
Best Detroit Pizzas 8 dishes ranked Detroit-style square/pan pizza with cheese to the edge (frico/cheddar lace), crisp bottom, and airy interior. Prefer a specific named pie (e.g. The Pepperoni, Detroit vs Everybody, DET Combo Americano) at a restaurant.

#1 Red Top Frico on 2nd · Upper East Side, Manhattan 8.5 Limited data
Best Margherita Pizzas 8 dishes ranked The Neapolitan classic: tomato, mozzarella and basil on a thin, blistered crust, and nothing else. Judged on the sauce, the pull of the cheese and the char on the rim, with no toppings to hide behind.

#1 Margherita Pizza (personal) Juliana's · DUMBO, Brooklyn 8.8 Limited data
Best Cheese Pizzas 7 dishes ranked Plain cheese pizza — tomato sauce and mozzarella on a baked crust, sold by the slice or as a whole pie. No pepperoni, no margherita basil-forward builds, no deep-dish or stuffed pies.

#1 NYC Round Cheese Pizza NY Pizza Suprema · Chelsea, Manhattan 8.4 Limited data
Best Pepperoni Pizzas 6 dishes ranked A pizza topped primarily with pepperoni (cured, spiced sausage slices that cup and char at the edges when cooked). The named SKU on the menu is 'pepperoni' — not plain cheese, not margherita, not a specialty with pepperoni as one of several toppings. Includes NY-style, Detroit-style, Neapolitan, tavern, and Sicilian pepperoni pies when those are the menu's ranked pepperoni offering.

#1 14 inch pie with full pepperoni John's of Bleecker Street · West Village, Manhattan 8.9 Limited data
Best Vodka Pizzas 6 dishes ranked Pizza topped with creamy, pink vodka sauce (tomato, cream and a splash of vodka) plus mozzarella, often finished with basil and parmesan; a New York slice-shop staple.

#1 Vodka Pizza Rubirosa · Nolita, Manhattan 9.1 Medium confidence
Best Deep Dish Pizzas 4 dishes ranked Chicago-style deep-dish pizza: a tall-sided pan pie with cheese under the sauce and a thick, often cornmeal or buttery crust, baked long and cut into wedges. Distinct from Detroit square, New York thin and Neapolitan margherita.

#1 Deep Dish Emmett's · Greenwich Village, Manhattan 7.9 Limited data
