Top 100 Pizza Spots in the U.S., According to Yelp

February 8, 2022

In celebration of National Pizza Day on February 9, Yelp is launching a search for its first-ever Chief Pizza Officer, who will serve as the authority on all things pizza, from deep dish to Detroit style, pizza cones to personal pan. 

During their six-month engagement, the Chief Pizza Officer will be responsible for spreading their love for pizza and sharing the latest pizza trends with the Yelp community. To apply, pizza pundits should submit a 30-60 second video explaining why they’re qualified to take on the role, at ChiefPizzaOfficer.Yelp.com. Participants will be judged based on their love for local businesses, pizza pride, geography and social media presence.* 

So far this year, pizza is one of the top five most searched items on Yelp and pizza variations are regularly a top trend for Yelpers. In 2021, Detroit-style pizza was a must-order dish with review mentions up 52% and in 2022, we expect blonde pizza, often referred to as white pizza, to reign supreme. Searches for the tomato-less pizza were up a whooping 953%. The winning pizza connoisseur will be awarded $25,000 to continue their pizza education across the U.S. and help us stay abreast of what’s next in the world of pizza.

When it comes to the state of the slice in the U.S., we wanted to know where the best spots are for a slice right now. That’s why Yelp is also releasing a list of the Top 100 Places for Pizza to commemorate the holiday. Topping this year’s list is Cheese Board Pizza in Berkeley, CA, where Yelpers love to try out new toppings with the daily pizza menu. Whether you’re in the mood for classic Sicilian square (try no. 2 Prince Street Pizza) or creative toppings (no. 37’s Sixty Vines in Plano, TX) – there’s something to satisfy every pizza craving.
