Una Pizza Napoletana in New York City has been named the best pizza restaurant in the world by 50 Top Pizza. Located in the Lower East Side, Una reclaimed the top spot after dropping to second place last year. This ranking solidifies Una as a premier destination for pizza lovers, offering an authentic and unique take on Neapolitan-style pizza.
Minimalist Approach with Exceptional Quality
Chef and owner Anthony Mangieri is renowned for his minimalist approach, using only the highest quality ingredients to create a simple yet extraordinary pizza experience. The dough is thin and chewy, with charred edges that give it a distinct flavor. Mangieri’s menu includes classic pies like Margherita and Marinara, alongside a rotating special pizza that changes based on seasonal ingredients.
Despite its simplicity, the execution is where Una stands out. Reviewers from 50 Top Pizza noted that Mangieri’s pizzas bring back traditional pizza flavors with a contemporary twist. The limited variety—only five main pies—ensures a focus on quality over quantity.
A Coveted Dining Experience
Una Pizza Napoletana’s exclusivity adds to its allure. Open only three days a week, Una serves approximately 400 pies each week. With reservations filling up quickly, diners often need to book weeks in advance. The restaurant’s policy allows for only one pie per person per reservation, emphasizing the scarcity and special nature of each dining experience.
For those who are lucky enough to score a spot, Una promises a pizza experience unlike any other. Fans from around the world flock to the restaurant, cementing its reputation as the best in the world.
