Fahrenheit in Asheville at #17?? LOL! I have eaten there a couple of times and their pizza is good, but it is nowhere near that good. Joey's in Nashville should be much higher.

I know it’s all subjective, but at least 50 out of the 100 should be places from New York and Chicago.
Uncle Paul's near Grand Central Station. Everybody ends up in Grand Central eventually. Instead of eating at Pershing Square (which ain't bad,) step in Uncle Paul's for a slice.

Only one in Atlanta is Plant Based Pizza. They are one of those places trying to convince you plant based substitutes taste as good as the real thing. They dont. Same with some of the vegan not real cheese stuff.

Good pizza, nothing spectacular, unless you are a vegan I suppose. I would like it better if they didnt pretend it was meat, or cheese. Not even sure I would put it Top 10 in Atlanta.

I’ve never even heard of A Dopo
Just north of downtown. I believe it was started by a former chef from Blackberry Farm who went to Italy and learned their method. Wood burning tile Italian oven, makes you wanna smack yo mama.

You can't beat the Italians at their own game. OTOH, I know people from the midwest who believe Chicago style pizza is real pizza, and say they didn't like pizza in Italy.
Many of those ovens in Italy are hundreds of years old. Those volcanos along the west coast of Italy have provided some unique exceptional soil which produces some great tomatoes for sauce.

I don't care for Chicago style pizza at all. Give me some simple light, wood-charred crust with San Marzanos and fresh mozzarella, basil, and homemade sausage or pepperoni all day.

Cheese Board in Berkeley is really good. Vegetarian pizzas only and always a long line.
Golden Boy in SF is great, good place to get slices.
Been to Zachary's in Oakland and Berkeley countless times. They are known for their deep dish, but they do a great thin style as well.

I haven't heard of Crust in Miami, I will check that out soon. It is very close to where I live.

What about Hard Knox? I haven't had A Dopo, but Hard Knox takes the best pizza in K-Town for me currently. Also their Garlic Knots are heavenly.

I’ve never been to A Doppler either, but everyone I know raves about that place. I love Hard Knox pizza, especially their Iron Mike.

You guys knocking the true Chicago deep dish……we can’t be friends anymore. 🤬

The two best that I have ever eaten are 1. In Italy at a little bistro where moma came out and confirmed that you liked it and
2. In Brooklyn or the Bronx.

Upon eating those, it was like I had never actually eaten pizza before. Everything else might as well have been cardboard with spaghetti sauce.

I lived in Brooklyn for 3 years, and sadly, I have never been to any of those pizza places in NY. However, Pizza Plus in Park Slope Brooklyn was the best pizza I ever had. I honestly can't imagine it getting much better than that. When we lived there, we got that once a week for dinner.

I would love to try one of the Chicago Deep Dish pizzas. I have considered getting one shipped from Uno's just to see what's going on.

I’ve done Giordano’s and Lou Malnati’s shipped before. My preference is Giordano’s. Your best price is if you order 6 so find some friends to go in with you and it’ll come out to 20 bucks a pizza. I’m not sure where you’re from but made fresh is always better. 312 in Nashville makes a great Chicago style pizza.

I'll second his pick of Giordano's as well as eating it fresh. Its hard to beat Giordano's or Connies from Chicago. (Hint: always order a small. No matter how fat a** you are, order a small).
