These pizzerias have earned their spots on the list of the Top 100 Pizza Spots of 2024 as decided by Yelp users. Lombardi’s Pizza holds the title of "America’s first pizzeria" and is recognized by the Pizza Hall of Fame.  Serving crispy, thin-crust pies since 1905, this historic pizzeria in Little Italy has been satisfying pizza cravings for over a century.

If you find yourself in the mood for a different kind of pizza experience, look for Prince Street Pizza. Located in the heart of The Big Apple, they have made a name for themselves with its Sicilian squares and “secret” slices. Don't about their hot-honey-drizzled Naughty pie - a blend of sweet, that'll your taste buds doing a happy dance.
