Where to find the best pizza in Paris
Paris pizza has grown up. Neapolitan pizzaioli, Roman specialists and big Italian trattorias now compete for the same crowd, so the real question is which style you want tonight. Use the filters above to narrow things down by neighborhood, price or opening hours.
A quick way to spot a serious pizzeria: a short menu, a dough that rests for hours, and a pizzaiolo who talks about flour. Every place below passed that test in at least one of the guides we track, and each page shows the pies people order most, so you know what to ask for before you sit down.
Neapolitan: soft, puffy and blistered
The Naples school dominates this list. Peppe Pizzeria, run by the 2020 world champion, bakes cloud-like crusts on a charming square in the 20th. La Vera Pizza Napoletana, in the 15th, carries on five generations of a Neapolitan pizza-making family. Dalmata limits how many pizzas it makes per service, so don't show up late and hungry.
Roman: thin and crisp
If you like a crust that cracks, head to AVE Pizza Romana in the 11th, where the dough is rolled ultra-thin Roman-style. Leave room for the maritozzo, a cream-filled brioche.
Pizza night with a crowd
The Big Mamma addresses turn pizza into an event: Pizzeria Popolare seats hundreds near the Bourse, and La Felicità fills a giant food hall in the 13th. Perfect for groups; see more in our lively restaurants. For a drink afterwards, Moonshiner is a 1920s-style speakeasy hidden behind a pizzeria's fridge door in the 11th, one of our favorite bars.
Where to look, and when
The 11th and the 2nd have the most pizza on this list, so start with the 11th arrondissement or the 2nd. On a tight budget, our cheap eats have more slices and quick bites; for a pizza after midnight, check the late-night restaurants. Then open any place to see its must-try pies, prices and what reviewers loved (and didn't).
