When it comes to pizza in Greater Boston, there are better options and more variety than ever before for takeout or at sit-down restaurants.

Blame the COVID-19 pandemic, a period in time when people had no other options but to order takeout, like pizza.

But pizza is in its golden age for other reasons. Chefs, influencers, and food media have brought the pizza lexicon to the masses, and now diners are demanding not just more pizza options, but higher-quality pizza. 

Now seemingly everyone is making wood-fired pizzas, cooking up their own versions of pies with New York, Naples, New Haven, and Detroit influences. Some shops utilize fresh or locally-sourced ingredients. Several pizzerias that are considered to be the best in Boston have only opened up in the last handful of years.

But at the end of the day, pizza is incredibly personal, and therefore old-time, no-frills spots still mean a great deal to diners in Greater Boston. 

Boston.com is putting together a best pizza bracket, and we need readers’ help in figuring out what makes the initial cut. 

It can be round or square; served by the slice or as a pie; it can be from a pizza house or a high-end Italian restaurant; but it must be pizza served at a restaurant in Greater Boston. 

We included multiple options below that come from our 2023 readers’ picks of pizza, and some other restaurants that opened up after. If you don’t see your favorite Greater Boston pizzeria, share your vote in the write-in option. You can also email [email protected] with your answer. Responses may be used in future pizza coverage.
