Tokyo, a city beloved by foodies around the world, is filled with incredible dishes born from a fusion of fresh ingredients and masterful technique. Recently, three Tokyo pizza restaurants were recognized on a list of Asia's top best pizza spots. From authentic Neapolitan style to creative omakase, WAGU introduces three of Tokyo's best pizzerias.
No. 1. The Pizza Bar on 38th
With just eight seats at a bar right in front of the pizza oven, this place isn't just a pizzeria—it's a sanctuary for food lovers where you can experience a master's craft up close. The Pizza Bar on 38th was named No. 1 in Asia for its unique 'pizza omakase' concept, where pizza is served course by course. The menu features creative pizzas that add a modern flair to classic recipes, using fresh, local Japanese ingredients like seasonal seafood and vegetables. Located in the Mandarin Oriental in Nihonbashi, Tokyo, it promises a truly special experience.
No. 2. RistoPizza by Napoli sta ca
This spot has earned its reputation for creatively reinterpreting Neapolitan pizza with a modern sensibility while honoring its traditions. Its signature 'Don Salvo' pizza, with a star-shaped dough filled with ricotta cheese, is a must-try. Situated in the Azabudai Hills Tower Plaza, its convenient location makes it the perfect place to stop for a delicious pizza after a day of shopping or sightseeing.
No. 16. La Tripletta
La Tripletta, boasting a menu of over 20 classic pizzas, offers the true essence of authentic Neapolitan pizza. The pizza here is baked in a 'Stefano Ferrara' oven, often called the 'Ferrari of pizza ovens,' resulting in a perfectly crispy yet chewy crust. From a classic Margherita to a rich special pizza, this is a must-visit for any lover of traditional Neapolitan pizza.
