"The Neapolitan-style pizza restaurant, owned by chef Anthony Mangieri, beat out two Italy pizzerias that tied for second place, as well as a Tokyo pizzeria that was crowned third. Mangieri, who previously sat down with Chowhound to talk about the biggest pizza-making mistakes, has been in the business for decades. He opened the original Una Pizza Napoletana in New Jersey in 1996, later moving it to Manhattan in 2004, then to San Francisco in 2010, and ultimately back to the Lower East Side of Manhattan in 2018."
"Mangieri has certainly zeroed in on his craft - if you stop by for a visit, you'd better like pizza, as it's the only item on the menu, with the exception of two snack-like appetizers (olives and roasted peppers) and a couple of desserts (a seasonal gelato and fresh fruit sorbetto). The restaurant's exterior is pretty unassuming, but the line of people down the sidewalk waiting for their chance to try it will certainly give its location away."
Una Pizza Napoletana is a Neapolitan-style pizzeria owned by chef Anthony Mangieri that was named the world's best pizza in 2024 by the Italian guide 50 Top Pizza. The restaurant began in New Jersey in 1996, moved to Manhattan in 2004, opened in San Francisco in 2010, and returned to Manhattan's Lower East Side in 2018. The menu focuses almost exclusively on pizza, with two snack-like appetizers and a couple of desserts. The exterior is unassuming but often has a line; the space offers a fair amount of seating and an open pizza kitchen. The crust is soft and fluffy, and toppings are well-executed.
