The Best Pizzerias In Florence, Italy

This tiny locale is situated in the Santa Croce area, and is a great place to stop by for those tourists who want to stay near the historic center. Be warned, however – it is not for those who are in a rush. The pizzas here are so popular that the few tables inside the restaurant are always full, and since they do not accept reservations, waiting outside or getting a takeaway is usually a must. They only have three different types of pizza, focusing on quality above quantity. Their margherita is one of the best in the city, and it costs a mere eight euros.

Located near the San Frediano church in the Oltrarno, at Da Gherardo’s visitors will get a true taste of what it means to eat a Neapolitan pizza. The antipasti are also to die for, and if visitors are unsure of what pizza to get the Regina is a great option, made with basil, eggplants, fresh tomatoes, provola buffala cheese and tomato sauce. The food here is really great value, and it will be difficult for diners to forget this authentically Italian culinary experience.

Run by a Neapolitan family, the pizza at Pizzeria Santa Lucia is the real deal. The authentic dining area, decorated with quirky paintings and pictures, and the delicious pizzas will keep visitors coming back for more. For those who have maybe had too much pizza, but are still looking for an authentic Italian restaurant, never fear, the pizzeria’s fresh fish is also an optimal – and traditionally Neapolitan – choice.
