50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Tierra Verde

“Definitely a diamond in the rough!! There were 5 in our party and even tho we waited awhile it was definitely worth it. Our waitress was excellent and let us know from the beginning that she was backed up but would be back to us as soon as she could check on the other tables. She was actually the only server on duty!! The food was also excellent and well worth the wait and the price was very reasonable. We also sat where we could watch the kitchen staff working their butts off handling table orders as well as a stream of take out orders. All 5 of us agreed our experience was worth every minute. While we were there I didn't hear any complaints at all, which is highly unusual when you have any kind of wait. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We even tipped the kitchen staff for their hard work.“

“Best Italian flood in Pinellas County“

“😁We discovered Flippers during our evacuation from the Hurricanes. Great Pizza and appetizers. Red was our server and she was terrific - attentive, knowledgeable about the menu and considerate of our situation. We weren't rushed and enjoyed our experience. Thanks, Red!“

“This is my go to spot for pizza in St Pete! Eddie always does it right!!“

“I’ve never eaten there, but I can tell you that I know Kelley. And Kelley is the kindest soul and she knows how to make pizzas. I will be making a stop next time I’m back in the Burg. Support friend’s small businesses 🫵🏻“

“Lunch at St Pete Oak and Stone was hands-down, one of the best experiences we have had while visiting St. Pete. It was all because of the exceptional service by our server, Peyton. Thank you, Peyton! Also, kudos to the manager, Stu! They both teamed up to make our afternoon the absolute best! Payton was absolutely phenomenal, attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel like valued guests from the very moment we sat down. She recommended the popsicle drinks from the Summertime Cocktails menu, and we decided on the Midnight Sun and Blue Crush. Both were amazing and refreshing for a hot and muggy day. We never would’ve tried them without her recommendation and we are so glad we did!

The food was also top-notch. The wings were the best we’ve ever had. We were pleased that Stu, the manager, personally delivered the food to us. He was so personable and engaging and spend a few minutes chatting with us like we were old friends. It’s not too common anymore to see a manager so involved and genuine with guests and his hospitality made our experience feel truly special.

From the outstanding service to the delicious food and drinks, every part of our visit exceeded our expectations. Peyton and Stu have clearly mastered what first-class service and hospitality should look like we can’t wait to come back! Thank you for making our afternoon absolutely perfect!“

“We had lunch at Buona yesterday (2/4/26) and it was absolutely delicious! Portion sizes were perfect and the staff was cheerful and efficient. I highly recommend everyone go have a wonderful meal there!“

“philly cheese steaks were hot fresh and delicious. price is right. customer service is top notch. comfortable and easy to order and quick service.“

“Delicious food! Pear and gorgonzola should be a go-to pizza combo at more places. ❤️“

“We ordered for the first time last night after reading many recommendations on Facebook. The pizza was absolutely amazing. We are from up north and haven’t really found good pizza in this area. We will definitely be ordering from Bruno’s from now on! We had a large cheese, which was fantastic. The sauce was delicious and tasted like it was simmering for a while and not out of a can, the crust was crispy and tasted like New York City pizza. The Philly cheesesteak was great as well. We will definitely be ordering from here again.“

“If you come to Gulfport, do yourself a favor and come to Tommy’s Hideaway. It is a do not miss destination here. I am local. Trust me. Lol.“

“My daughter & I were in St. Pete for a Doctors appointment & I just googled places near by. Reviews were great so we stopped in & I’m so glad we did because it was Delicious! The Burrata Caprese was a definite must for me, pizza was awesome & definitely kid approved & lastly we had to finish with the Caramel cookie gelato which was So delicious! Staff was very very nice 😊 Thank you for the great experience! We’ll be back next time we are in St. Pete!“

Their prices are great, the staff is super nice, service is fast and the food is delicious!!! It is just the gem we needed on the Southside!!!“

“I Love Going To Gianni NY Pizza with my Mom it’s Always A Fun Time With Her Haven’t Been There In A Few Months But It’s Worth The Reive Across Town.“

“this is my favorite pizza place in St. Pete! wait times are long even if you call right when they open but, it's so worth the wait!“

“Passed this place for too long. Ordered an 18 inch pepperoni. Price was great. Pizza was even better! Delivery was fast. Very good. Thanks 4th St. Pizza!“

“We dined at the Colony Grill last Sunday 1/4/26. We had ordered takeout and sat outside. I only went went in to use the restroom. After we left and went out to a couple of other places, I realized I did not have my purse. We backtracked to all the places we had been in Saint Pete that day, about five different places. But for some reason, we did not go back to the colony Grill. I never found my purse. I was devastated. I had a lot of valuable items in it and figured someone had decided it was too enticing and kept it. But Tuesday morning when I was at home, I received a box from FedEx addressed to my brother, whose ID I had in my purse. Someone had taken the time and money out of their own wallet to send my purse back to me fully intact down to the last penny! I am so very thankful I tried calling the restaurant to find out who had done the good deed, but was just met with an automated service. If someone in the restaurant reads this review, please reach out to me. I would like to give a proper thank you to the person that really made my day and set a great tone for the new year!“

“My family brought this pizza home and it's really good pizza! The XL is actually huge, the quality is great. Will be returning in person because I'm sure it's even better fresh in the moment. :)“

“Absolutely the best delicius We love my family and friends Reasonable price,“

“The food was fresh, flavorful, and served at the perfect temperature. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. The staff provided excellent service, being friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the visit. Overall, a very satisfying dining experience“

“Great pizza!! New York style at its best !!“

“Best pizza in st pete. My friends and i all agree, so. The crust has that extra flavor, it's perfectly cooked and they nail the toppings. Their limited special pizzas are amazing (Nashville hot chicken). Pricey but worth it.

Other places considered: Nona's, Toby's, Pizza Box, Colony Grill, Original 1889, Top Slice, Joey Brooklyn's, Gianni's, Britt's, Cappy's, Fabrica, DeLosa's, Violet Stone, Noble Crust, Siri's, Tommy's Hideaway.“

“I usually love everything that I've ordered but today I ordered 10 chicken wings with medium sauce from the Seminole location and they were horrible unless you like pepper on your wings. I'm not a fan of pepper and when I called to ask if I received the correct order was informed that this location adds pepper and you have to request no pepper. Wasted money on them today. It should be on the menu that they do this to all of the wings. Disappointed 😞“

“La Mamma's pistachio gelato is phenomenal! Wonderful atmosphere and staff. Highly recommend.“

“Stopped in for a quick bite, food was delicious 🤤 🤤🤤“

“If you're looking for a fresh take on pizza with top-notch ingredients, best pizza by far and have lived here 25 years, you absolutely have to check out
Slice of Gulfport! It's already become a new favorite spot for a delicious pie, Thank you. Sven“

“Gyro was Devine! Best sandwich platter ever.“

“First try, never knew this place was here.. hidden Gem.. food is decent, portion size is fantastic. I got ravioli, didnt know it came with garlic bread and a salad.. I was so full!! I'd pay 10 bucks for all that, any day... versus 12 at McDonalds.. yuck.. this was great!“

“The best pizza we’ve ever had! Warm and friendly staff, great service. Can’t beat it!“

“Best place in St Pete to get a killer authentic fire cooked pizza and enjoy some great craft beer. Some amazing live music can be found here as well.“

“Great food,love the wings, pizza, homemade lasagna, Shannon the server is great 👍“

“Never had a bad experience, which says a lot about the owners and employees running this place. Food is always great and if something happens that isn’t great, they always make it right and then some. If you love great food and great service, you should try the bowls or the hummus appetizer.“

“i ordered a large cheese pizza with very little sauce. i love the sauce but cant eat it. The man waiting on me said he could take care of that and he did!!! The pizza was absolutely wonderful as always but even more so because there was hardly any sauce so i could eat and enjoy!!!!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Well, I would leave 10 stars, but they only allow you 5.

📣🍕 Calling all pizza fans! 🍕📣

As a pizza connoisseur who's tried pizza all over the world, I can honestly say Paizano's is one of my favorite spots in St. Pete. When I first moved here, it was one of the first places I visited, and I completely fell over on my two feet when I tried their pizza. The garlic crust is absolute perfection. 🤌🧄🍕

What keeps me coming back besides the word class pizza, is the family atmosphere. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and they practically know my order before I say it. You can tell this place is a community favorite where customers and staff genuinely enjoy seeing each other.

Don't let a line or a packed dining room keep you away—if anything, that's a sign you're about to have some outstanding pizza. 🔥🍕

And Josh, if you're reading this, the mozzarella sticks are to perfection. 🤌🧀

Great pizza, great people, and great service. Paizano's has earned every one of these five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I love this place! Whether it’s late night spur of the moment after party food, or I plan to come here for dinner, it’s always delicious. The guy who makes my food (penne pasta with mozzarella cheese thrown in the oven 😉) you’re the best! My kids love their pizza and if they had it their way, they’d be here every other day for lunch.“

“I had short rib stuffed ravioli and my husband had the Swordfish special. Food is amazing. Well done!!“

“Its an all right pizza, but good for what it is. This pizza is perfect to feed a bunch of hungry kids for fairly cheap. Very Lil Caesars like type pizza. They have a bunch of crust toppings you can add. Which we did butter cheese. I'd say get the crust topping to enhance the pizza. They also have stuffed crust which my son loves. If you use a deal to bring the price down, I say its worth it. We got it to go and it was made quick and cashier was friendly and offered me paper plates 👍. No dine. To go or delivery.“

“We LOVE this place! The ribeye in the cheesesteaks is so fresh and cooked to perfection. We had cheesesteaks and small classic pizza well done! DELICIOUS! If you are a foodie this is your place forREAL cheesesteak and well done pizza!“

“Siris is always our first stop when we get to Gulfport. We love their Strombolis, garlic knots and burgers. This place is the best in a “sea” of great restaurants.“

“Was in the Tampa area for vacation the past two years and had to get back to DeLosa’s Pizzeria!!! Hands down, one of the absolute best pizza selections out of all the pizzerias I’ve gotten to try. I have had several of their menu selections. You can’t go wrong with anything they serve. Oh I I always grab a few new DeLosa’s Pizzeria Tshirts. Gotta represent the awesomeness even when I’m back home in Wisconsin or traveling for work!!! Thank you DeLosa’s Pizzeria, for always preparing devious menu options!!“

“The pizzas are great we ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and it was fantastic. But the pasta entrees are my family’s favorite. The pasta puttanesca is truly amazing. We have been here a few times and we order it with shrimp or blackened chicken. The portions are American Italian so you will have some to take home. The house salad is also excellent. The Italian Margarita is a refreshing drink after a few hours in the burning sun.“

“St Pizza Catering are the nicest people I have ever met! I love their taco night but honestly all of their food is super yummy and there has yet to be a meal from them that I hadn't liked. Highly recommend this sweet couple for any event you might have!“
