50 Best Pizza Restaurants in Rochester

“Every dish my friends and I shared tonight we LOVED. Such unique flavors! The staff is also so warm and hospitable. I will definitely be back!“

“This posh place stays busy, so just remember to make a reservation unless you want to eat at the bar! Now, everything I ordered was big and too much! Had leftovers for days!!! ?The ceiling is exposed, the cocktails are strong, and the menu is niche! Dimly lit, you can access this restaurant from outside or inside of Village Gate. And don't forget the food is delicious! My falafel was a bit overcooked, but hey... ??‍♀️“

“Everything was awesome. Steak sandwich, pizza, wings, drinks ….. and a cookie ta boot!“

“This place is a 10/10! The food is outstanding, and the staff is always so friendly. I could eat here everyday. If you haven’t been, you are absolutely missing out. My favorite pizza place and I would very highly recommend.“

“Peels On Wheels does great vegan pizza! The toppings are extremely high quality. I don't remember exactly what it was called, but they had this kind of sundried sweet red bell pepper that was out of this world. I had that New York style with shallots, banana pepper rings, and vegan pepperoni. The owner works in the kitchen alongside his employees and really cares about producing superior pizza. Their pies are so much better than what you'll get ordering from a chain!“

“Great food very fresh, nice place to sit and eat lots of options for kids too.“

“Been to the Pizza Shoppe several times in the past month and a half. Let’s start with service. Fast, friendly and fantastic. I got my pizza nice and hot each time and my chocolate chip cookies were to die for. Seriously, maybe the best I have ever had.I have had several different varieties of this Detroit Style Pizza and it is second to none. It is now my go to for Pizza without a doubt.I also love the small pizza shoppe atmosphere not like one these chain pizza shops that has no personality. It was quiet and pleasant to just take a seat and enjoy my pizza. Hoping to try their chicken parmigiana in the near future.I don’t give many 5 star reviews, however this was an easy one to write.Great Job to your team at The Pizza Shoppe.“

“Great place great beer great food…Heaven!“

“Delicious pizza and the cronuts are an ingenious dessert!!“

“Outstanding. Wildflour's recipes are definitely well thought out, have extremely fresh ingredients and are bursting with unique flavors. Their pasta and bread have layers of texture and I hear use ancient grains in some of the process.“

“The Pizza was Delicious! Owner's are super nice and very friendly. Made us feel at home! I'll definitely go back before we leave town! If you haven't tried them out , your definitely missing out!!“

This neighborhood is fortunate to have this story here.“

“We had our wedding reception at the Railroad Street Beer Hall and it was everything we could’ve ever hoped for, and more! Nikki, the event coordinator, was amazing from the start. She was happy and willing to accommodate any and every request we had. She was always 3 steps ahead of us, and made sure everything went off without a hitch- and it did! Reception planning can be very stressful, and Nikki really helped make it a fun and relaxed experience for us. The staff during the party was phenomenal, especially the bartender! So many of our guests commented on how fun and kind the staff was during our party! The food was also fantastic, and the atmosphere ensured that everyone had a wonderful time. We are so grateful for Rohrbachs and the wonderful people that work there - I would (and have) recommend having an event here to anyone! It was the perfect place, and will forever be a special spot for us. We had so much fun we wish we could do it again! Laurel & Julie“

“1st time at Nino's & our pizza was delicious. I do enjoy great food & music from hole in the wall, family places like Nino's. He made a special pizza for my mom & it was so crispy, & delicious, loaded with toppings that we enjoyed it to quickly for pictures. Thanks again:)“

“Cozy atmosphere, amazing service and the food was great! We don't go out a lot and we were very happy we landed here!“

“Had a wonderful family dinner! Sam was attentive and friendly! Definitely recommend while in Rochester!“

“I ordered a pizza and wings last night and left an honest and fair review on #Doordash the restaurant went in and changed it. My review: The pizza arrived hot and was as good as always plentiful toppings. The Wings were good very meaty although the sauce was uninspiring. I posted a photo of the foods let's just say the picture of pizza wasn't beautiful, the toppings had shifted during delivery the wings look really goo. The dishonesty of Cams is sad.“

“Very nice people really good food“

“I used to frequent the other cam's by east and Alex before the pandemic hit and swept it away. I used to love it as it reminded me of nj boardwalk pizza . I finally stopped into this other location and got my two favorite slices and a drink for 10 bucks. Still love it and this isn't a bad deal these days! The guy behind thel counter was incredibly friendly too. I'll be back to top up my punch-card until I get some free stuff! ?“

“A Symphony for the Mouth. The perfect pizza. The best pizza in Rochester. Pizzaiolo and boss Jerry makes culinary works of art the rest of us call "pizzas." I've eaten pizza all over Rochester and hands down La Famiglia is our favorite place to go for pizza...pizza mervigliosa.The thin crust is crispy on the bottom and chewy on the top. The sauce is not overly seasoned nor salty, and you can taste tomato rather than oregano or some other additive. Lots of toppings. Everything just plain works together.Thanks also to "Jean from Long Island" who is a sincere, kind and knowledgable person who served our drinks and pizza. Made this meal a pleasure.Seriously, if you love pizza you have to have it here at La Famiglia. No other pizzeria comes close.“

“nothing there nasty the place is nasty the food is spoiled rat infestation health department has violations food poisoning cases owner is a supposedly a Christan but a compulsive gambler“

“Great food service and atmosphere“

“I love pizza stop! I'm originally from the New Haven CT area and miss the pizza so much. This always reminds me of home. They have over 10 slice options all fresh and hand made. They hear it up for you. I also love their garlic knots and their sauce is delish. They have a good selection of drinks! Don't forget to tip. They are on grub hub so order soon!“

“Food was very good and they accommodated us around other reservations“

“The people were incredibly nice and the pizza was great. Recommend trying the Dill Pickle Pizza if you like pickles. It's a lot of pickles so you have to really like pickles. If you don't really like pickles I would get a different type of pizza. I can't emphasize enough how many pickles are on the dill pickle pizza.“

“A bit overhyped. "The best in Rochester" I've heard a few times.Only thing preference wise I wasn't a fan of was the sauce and dough. Tasted bland. The cheese and pepperoni were great and cooked well. Smokes Pontillo's and Salvatore's off the map.8 outta 10“

“Food was excellent, pizza was cooked perfectly (the Californian pizza, quite a good flavor combination). Service was quick, I do recommend.“

“Amazing food, and atmosphere. Staff made our visit to the city a welcoming experience for artists. 100% recommend.“

“My daughter is from NYC and loves coming here when she is home. Cozy cute little place with the best food! We had cheese and broccoli soup with chicken salad on toasted croissant. Delish! We ordered chi latte with spice added in. Very affordable, highly recommend!“

“Erin is outstanding! She made our Blaze experience amazing. Thank you Erin G.reat service. Great food“

“Their food is always on point and is so delicious cannot go wrong with this place“

“A great place in an unlikely spot: an old Abbott's in a plaza that has seen better days. Lovely people and good food. We found them because our regular spot for safe gluten-free food was temporarily closed and we just keep going back. They have gluten-free pastries including apple fritters--a must try! Would love to see more vegetarian options show up, but they are very agreeable and understanding if you request light cheese or no cheese. The regular pizzas are also amazing; really good sauce and crust. Highly recommended.“

“whether it's a huge lunch slice or an entire pizza, they are my favorite by far. Family owned and operated, clean, consistent and always fresh!“

“Went for Bloody Mary drink which was excellent. They have the specialty ones only Sunday yet very enjoyed their in-house made. Server VERY friendly, pleasant. Was very nice, comfortable there. Didn't have any food but will go again for sure.“

“Been going here when they was called Yemani's. I was going here before the Feds raided (2001) them as if they were criminals. These my peoples!!!! Young boi tried to stab me in there and Joe disarmed the little MF. ???Big Shout out to Joe and Salah. #700 if you get a sub make sure that bread toasted.“

“Love love love! While my family orders from Two Ton Tony's, I order from New Ethic, and I'm never disappointed. I feel lucky to have such a great option for dairy free pizza- and their milkshakes are incredible too! Matt and Kathy are great along with the teens who work there. Quality control is on point, and last time... I couldn't decide between a traditional pizza and my favorite- the pickle pizza. It's sooooo good!! I highly recommend New Ethic. You're treated like family if you're a regular, and I always look forward to going there. The dining room is back open as well!! :-) Go try it, even if you're not vegan. You won't be disappointed!!Dietary restrictions: I'm so grateful for a dairy free option nearby!! Woot!“

“Just found Tom and Nancy's again after years of thinking they closed, they just moved. Best pizza ever! Highly recommend.“

“Amazing pizza and great atmosphere! Love the owners and staff“

“We moved to the Chili area a couple of years ago. For a bit, we struggled to find a good pizza on this side of town. Then we tried this place, we have now ordered from there 4 times and this has become our go-to spot. This seems to be the only pizza place on this side of town that is capable of consistently producing great pizza. This time, we ordered a white pizza with broccoli, onions, and spinach. It was absolutely delicious, not to mention visually appealing as well. It was coming out of the oven right at pick up as well. This Pontillos location is amazing. We will be back for sure.“

“I love Pudgie’s pizza and especially their chicken wings….cooked so nice and crunchy….the customer service was great and it’s nice to dine inside again❤️“

“Cinelli's Pizza and Italian Kitchen has the best menu in Rochester!! Vegan, dairy free, GF and regular menu.“

“Great food and service. Always a fun night.“

“great quality and customer service. outstanding bread and great place lunch or dinner.“

“If you’re in the Rochester area, I highly recommend Linda’s and more specifically their pickle pizza with the ranch sauce base. The pizza was made to perfection and the sauce was creamy and tangy. They also had an old bay fry pizza that was introduced today (2-16-24) as part of their Funky Friday line up for a limited time. Being from Jersey I had to try it, and it did not disappoint. A must try if you love old bay fries. I hope to see it become a permanent item on the menu. Thank you Linda’s staff for the great pizza and super friendly atmosphere!“

“Great hosts and hospitality good food great music“

“I ordered the Buffalo Bills pizza for the playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. First off, they contacted me when the game was rescheduled and offered accommodations so that I could get the pizza and bake it myself as they weren’t open on Monday when the game would be played. THEN called back again to let me know they were going to open on Monday after all and scheduled a time for me to pick up my pizza. Awesome customer service and only outdone by the delicious pizza!! Fair price as well!! I would highly recommend Savastano’s , give them a try you won’t be disappointed!!! 5 ⭐️’s“

“Don’t be fooled by the mall location. Cosimo’s pizza is seriously the best we’ve had in Rochester. Their pizza has great crust that is light, has perfect “pizza oven crunch” and is flavorful. Their sauce and cheese also have great flavor, and toppings are always fresh and cooked perfectly. The calzones are so filling and to die for. I don’t know why it took us so long to realize we could order full pizzas ahead of time but this is our new pizza night in go-to.“

“Pizza Krunch is a fantastic new pizzeria. Some of the best Brooklyn-style slices I’ve had since moving to Roc!I tried the Buffalo, BBQ Chicken, and Veggie. All styles were delicious, the dough had a delicious taste and I’m told it’s made in-house. The service was fast and easy, and enjoy the chicken on both the Buffalo and BBQ.Highly recommend this pizza spot, especially if you’re craving a NYC style slice!“
