Top 4 Pizza Spots in Cleveland Ohio

Cleveland has some of the most delicious pizza anywhere.  Despite being in the midwest, there are many phenomenal restaurant spots where the slices are as good and in many cases better than pizza meccas like New York City and Chicago.  One of the many ways you can tell if a restaurant has outstanding pizza is how far customers are willing to travel to enjoy a slice.

The following places we will highlight are so good that loyal fans will drive across town and the nation whenever they are home to visit.  Another way to tell if a place is among the elite when it comes to pizza is longevity.  All of these places have been in business for many years. There are dozens of top notch pizza joints in town, but these have been deemed the best of the best by Clevelanders and have the trophies and sustained success to prove it.  We also referenced ClevelandLeader.com in our process to find the top spots.

#2 – Angela Mia Pizza

Celebrating 50 years of being in business in 2018, Angela Mia Pizza is an Eastside legend when it comes to pizza.  Ask any Cleveland Heights or Shaw graduate and they will tell you stories about how they have flown in from California, New York, Las Vegas, etc just to have a slice.  I know a fan personally who drove from Avon Lake to the East Cleveland location for some pies before they closed one night.  Still family owned and operated, Angela Mia continues to serve high quality food and with their new location in Richmond Heights the pizza icon will only increase in stature.
