Based on reviews and opinions from its users, TripAdvisor has announced the top 10 cities for pizza in the U.S. And the results might surprise you.

1. San Diego

Really. TripAdvisor users praised locations like Bronx’s for having pizza “just as good as being home in New York.”

2. Las Vegas

Sin City comes in at No. 2, where users enjoy places like Secret Pizza on the Strip.

3. Boston

The North End is a big reason why Boston comes in at No. 3, even besting New York. “In Boston, the pizza is done the old fashioned way, the way it should be,” one user commented. Pictured: Pizzeria Regina.

4. New York

“Home of the American pizza,” one user commented about Manhattan joints like Lombardi’s, who helped New York come in at No. 4.

5. Seattle

Seattle is known for coffee and seafood, but pizza? “Excellent pizza, high quality ingredients,” one user said about the pies at Fying Squirrel Pizza, which prides itself on making pizza with a fine selection of local meat.

6. Austin, Texas

Texas? “Best pizza outside of NYC,” one user commented. At Roppolo’s, guests can try the “Italian Mex” pizza, which honors Austin’s Tex-Mex heritage with spicy flavors of jalapenos and red and gold peppers.

7. San Francisco

Tony’s Pizza Napoletana is one of some 200 pizza destinations in the city by the bay.

8. Indianapolis

Well, that seems odd. Still, as one user said about spots like Jockamo Upper Crust Pizza, “Best pizza west of Italy.” OK, then.

9. Philadelphia

Tony’s Place specializes in the “Original” thin-crust tomato pie. One TripAdvisor traveler commented, “Some of the best pizza anywhere.”

10. Phoenix

On the menu at Pizzeria Bianco guests will find unique varieties including the “Sonny Boy,” and “Wiseguy,” homemade dough topped with wood-roasted onion, house smoked mozzarella and fennel sausage. “My favorite pizza in the world,” said one TripAdvisor traveler.
