Pizza spots are a dime a dozen these days, but Dish Miami is here to help you find the best pies in town. When that cheesy craving hits, make sure to order from one of these Miami hot spots.
One of the newer spots on this list. Downtown’s Eleventh Street Pizza is all about crafting the perfect New York-style pies. This pizza shop in the former Fooq’s space is open late and boasts both round and square pizzas for the taking.
Options include crowd favorites like pepperoni and hot honey, spicy vodka, and wild shroom pies. If you just want a slice, you’ll have to stop in and get it, though, as they’re only available in-store. Starters abound, too: the Fooq’s meatballs and chicken parm are a must.
Eleventh Street Pizza is located at 1035 North Miami Avenue, Miami, FL 33136. For more information, visit their official website.
“You’re saying Westchester has some of the best pizza in Miami?” Yes.
The humble municipality is home to Frankie’s Pizza, which has been feeding the masses for 65 years. The idea for the concept started after namesake owner Frank B. Pasquarella and his wife Doreen noticed a lack of pizza shops in Miami. They opened the original store in South Miami on Valentine’s Day 1955. Two years later, they moved to their current location on Bird Road. The rest is history.
The first thing you’ll notice about Frankie’s is the retro look; the website jokes that the newest item at the store is the cash register (and we believe them). Even the website is a blast from the past. Another blast from the past: the prices. A square-shaped slice will only set you back a dollar or two, and a small pizza can cost anywhere from $7 to $10. Medium (eight slices) and large pizzas (10 slices) don’t cost much more.
Don’t feel like driving all the way to Westchester? Did you move away and miss a piece of your childhood? Frankie’s can deliver its half-baked pies anywhere in the U.S. A half-baked pizza is just that—half-baked; you finish baking it at home. It’s ideal if you want to freeze the pizza to enjoy later. That said, the best way to enjoy Frankie’s is fresh out of their oven.
Frankie’s Pizza is located at 9118 Bird Road, Miami, FL 33165. Call 305-221-0221 for more information or to order.
Ironside Pizza is a hidden gem – literally. It’s easy to miss unless you’re familiar with the area. If you’re fortunate enough to stumble upon this wood-fired Neapolitan pizzeria, you’re in for a treat. White pizzas, classic pizzas, gourmet pizzas … Ironside Pizza has it all and then some.
Keep things simple with a tasty margherita or funghi pizza, or spice things up with a calabrese pizza whose mix of N’duja and Calabrian chili pepper will wow heatseekers. The restaurant’s name is a little deceiving as there’s a lot more here than pizza. You’ll also find paninis, pastas, and calzones galore.
Ironside Pizza is located at 7580 NE 4th Court, Miami, FL 33138. For more information, visit their official Instagram.
Lucali is one of those places that needs no introduction. The Brooklyn favorite is also a Miami favorite, as waits to get in can last hours. Our advice: Show up right when they open or at an off-time to avoid the crowds.
Once you’re seated, you’ll notice that there’s only one pizza size and it’s a little pricey since each topping costs extra. Trust us when we say that it’s all worth it – these pizzas are huge enough for two to three people (although you won’t want to share). Appetizers like eggplant parm and chicken wings are available, but odds are that you won’t have any room.
Lucali is located at 1930 Bay Road, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.
“We are that famous hidden place.” That tagline is everywhere in Mister-01’s marketing — and rightfully so. The humble beginnings of Mister-01 — back then known as Visa-01 — trace back to a nondescript office building on Miami Beach’s Michigan Avenue. You’d need to enter through a secret back entrance, and only “those in the know” would be able to find it. If you were one of those lucky people, you were in for a treat.
Well, the secret’s out. The “secret” Miami Beach location is not-so-secret anymore, and the concept has expanded into other neighborhoods, including Brickell and Wynwood. The brand’s popularity should come as no surprise, considering the extensive and delicious offerings on the menu. Prepare to be overwhelmed (in a good way).
Purists can stick to traditional pies like the margherita, pepperoni, and mushroom selections, all of which are the best versions of the basics. The aptly named Special Pizzas are where Mister-01 truly shines, though. The literal star of the menu is the Star Luca, a star-shaped pizza stuffed with ricotta, spicy salami, and mozzarella. Best of all: The pizzas are priced reasonably at anywhere from $11 to $19. And if you want a smaller 8-inch pie, the price goes down to as little as $6. All budgets are welcome here.
Fun fact: Mister-01 operates a pizza school out of its Wynwood location. So if you want to learn how to make your own pizzas at home, consider signing up. Each class runs for about three hours and includes a complimentary chef’s hat and apron. Prices range depending on the number of people in your party.
Mister-01 has multiple locations throughout Miami. To find the one nearest you, visit the official website. A Coconut Grove location is scheduled to open later this year in Coco Walk.
La Natural, located in Miami’s Little River neighborhood, has quickly earned a spot among the city’s best pizza destinations, even securing a prestigious Bib Gourmand from The Michelin Guide. This accolade speaks to the restaurant’s exceptional quality and value, making it a must-visit for pizza enthusiasts.
La Natural is known for its sourdough pizzas, which are crafted with a 48-hour naturally fermented dough that delivers a perfectly airy and chewy crust. The menu is a carefully curated selection of pizzas that highlight the restaurant’s dedication to simplicity and quality ingredients. One standout is the White Sauce with Wild Mushrooms and Provolone—a rich, savory pizza topped with wild mushrooms, provolone, and fresh parsley, which perfectly balances the earthy flavors of the mushrooms with the creamy provolone cheese.
Other popular choices include the Tomato Sauce with Burrata and Basil, offering a luxurious twist on the classic Margherita, and the Tomato Sauce with Calabrian Chili and Provolone, which brings a delightful kick of heat balanced by the creamy provolone. Each pizza reflects La Natural’s commitment to using the finest organic ingredients, ensuring every bite is a testament to the art of pizza-making.
Brickell restaurants come and go, but Stanzione 87 has withstood the test of time. Since 2013, the neighborhood joint has been cranking out Neapolitan pies for the masses. Pizzas come out fast – they take about 90 seconds to cook – so this place is ideal for a quick and affordable meal.
Pizza options are divided into two categories – red pizzas and white pizzas – and you can’t go wrong with either. Best sellers include the buratta, salami, quattro formaggi and truffle pizzas. In addition to its pies, Stanzione 87 sells subs, salads, and an assortment of starters like meatballs, salumi, and wings.
Stanzione 87 is located at 87 SW 8th Street, Miami, FL 33130. For more information, visit their official website.
