The Best Pizza In Sacramento California

Pizza is a much-loved dish, but it is also highly susceptible to personal preference; some may prefer their crust thick and chewy, others thin and crispy. Aficionados may consider it sacrilege to add barbecue or ranch sauce to the base instead of tomato, while the less snobbish may swear by changing it up. Luckily, Sacramento has a number of dining establishments that specialize in pizza, and they all share at least one thing in common; quality. Here are the best pizza joints in the area.

Masullo Pizza

At Masullo Pizza, artisan pizzas are served up straight from a traditional 800°F wood-burning oven in a restaurant that has a welcoming neighborhood feel to it. A fermented sourdough crust and award-winning Frate Sole extra virgin olive oil, procured from nearby Woodland, go into making the authentic thin-crust Neapolitan-style pizzas here. The Eileen (mozzarella, crimini mushrooms, bacon, cream, sage, and black pepper) and Gilda (mozzarella, fontina, olives, red onion, and a garlic, parsley, and anchovy persillade) are particular favorites.

Zelda’s Gourmet Pizza

Established in 1978, Zelda’s Gourmet Pizza is a Sacramento institution that has stuck unapologetically to its roots in the 35 years it has been in business. Its dark and cozy interior is full of character, lit mostly by fairy lights and candles. What makes Zelda’s truly unique, though, is their Chicago-style deep-dish pizza that always comes loaded with toppings. Perhaps the most popular menu item is the Spinoccoli, which foregoes tomato sauce but piles on broccoli, seasoned spinach, fresh tomato slices, feta, mozzarella, and cheddar.
