Today is National Cheese Pizza Day and if you’re looking to grab a slice or maybe go out with some friends and share a pie or two (we won’t judge), PHL17 has compiled the ten best cheese pizza spots according to Yelp.
1. Lazaro’s Pizzeria Grill : 1743 South St
Reviewers say:
“Lazaro’s is one of the best pizza places in Philly. Their pies have it all, a great blend of cheese, sweet sauce, fresh crust, and tasty toppings.”
“Flew in from SoCal hoping for authentic Philly-style pizza. This is it! Wife said it’s the Best cheese pizza she ever had”
Reviewers say:
” We had the best cheese pizza we’ve ever had in Philly by far. The crust was crunchy yet soft in all the places, the cheese was strangely crispy on the outside but nice and gooey on the inside, perfect amount of sauce, the basil brought in some crisp and freshness to the pizza. Textures and tastes were amazing across the board. There is something about taking simplicity and making it so impressive and they did that. If you can make a plain cheese slice with such perfection, I’m just tryna figure out what other moves you got ”
3. Lorenzo & Sons Pizza: 305 S St
Reviewers say:
“My friend told me next time I am in town I need to try this pizza. So when I was there over the weekend I stop by got a slice and I was hook on the first bite!!!! It was sooo good I just got a plain cheese pizza and it was the best cheese pizza I’ve ever ate! 1 slice fits a whole box for only $6!! I writing this review makes me want to fly back and get some more! Will definitely be returning.”
“Great pizza! The place is small, nothing fancy, friendly service… serves cheese pizza as a pie or by the slice. The slices are massive, taste great, and have a crispy thin crust. Not much more I can say except go get a slice!”
Reviewers say:
“A friend who used to live in Philly told us about a pizza spot off Snyder that he used to frequent 10 years ago that was incredible. He couldn’t remember the name so we googled the area and this spot popped up. Not sure if this is the place or not but in either event his recommendation lead us here and we are grateful. Super light dough. Cheesy. Very delicious and affordable. We just ordered the cheese pizza. Next time we will try something a little more adventurous.”
5. Zio Pizza Palace & Grill: 157 N 9th St
Reviewers say:
“Their cheese pizza and white pizza have such great flavor!”
6. Paulie Gee’s Soul City Slice Shop: 412 S 13th St
Reviewers say:
“I enjoyed the cheese pizza we got. It had a nice crust. The pizza was NY style (thin) which is how I like pizza.”
“I heard great things about Paulie Gee’s Soul City Slice Shop and decided to stop by with a few friends before we went to the Phillies game. Paulie Gee’s has a number of premade pizzas that you select and they will heat up for you. I had a slice of the cheese pizza and the white pizza… Altogether, Paulie Gee’s Soul City Slice Shop is a solid place to get a slice of pizza in Philadelphia.”
Reviewers say:
“Love this place! Service was great Pizza was good..”
8. Pitruco Pizza Franklin’s Table: 3401 Walnut St
Reviewers say:
“Outstanding pizzas and side salads. Friendly staff and homemade pizza with fresh ingredients are the keys here to some of the best pizzas in Philadelphia.”
“The artisan pies you get here are fresh, cheesy, crispy, and yummy. Props to pitruco for the fresh pizzas!”
Reviewers say:
“This pizza is the best of the best and definitely recommend!! We really loved the cheese pizza and the ‘not pepperoni pizza”. So good!”
“Amazing Pizza every time….What makes this Pizza so good is the melt in your mouth cheese and crispy crust. Always a favorite. Be prepared to picnic in your car as this is one pie that is best served hot out of the oven”
10. Aldo & Manny Pizza and Pasta: 1431 Arch St
Reviewers say:
“We went to love park and visited this pizza place without checking the reviews. I ordered only a slice cheese pizza because we only want to try it. And we loved it! The cheese is creamy and gooey. The dough is freshly made and I can eat even the crusty side. I am not hungry because we just ate at a fast food restaurant an hour ago :D We also went there to cool down since it was 96F outside. Will definitely come back and try other flavors.”
“Stopped in waiting for train. Absolutely fantastic cheesesteak and pizza, will return if in the area. Super convenient to everything”
