Everyone knows the best food for lazy, stay-in days and also for sharing with friends is pizza. It's a step up from the guilty-pleasure fast food takeaway and a nice break from the usual suspects at the neighbourhood hawker centre. Stuffed crust, with or without pineapples, crisp thin crust, pizza margherita or topped with pepperoni and extra cheese, we love pizza in all its forms.

Chew your way through the best pizza joints in town

Osteria Mozza

American celebrity Chef Nancy Silverton dishes out10 signature pizzas showcasing an array of expertly sourced and prepared ingredients. The ultra-airy base eats with a crisp crunch followed by a deep beautiful tang from each chew. For lighter cleaner flavours, go with Silverton’s all-time favourite, the Burrata ($40) served with slow-roasted tomatoes and Silician oregano. The Singapore exclusive is the BLT ($38), an explosive riff on the American classic sandwich. But before you make a beeline expecting these pies for dinner, know that the famed pizzas are only served during lunch.

TRY The Bianca ($34) left us wanting more. It is a simple amalgamation of three kinds of cheese – the truffle-kissed sottocenere stood out against the distinctively savoury fontina – and crispy fried sage.

La Bottega Enoteca

Once a private home dining experience, La Bottega Enoteca is now a cosy Italian bistro in the Joo Chiat area - it’s got a reservation waitlist of at least one month. You’ve got just two choices: the 6-course menu ($139/person) or crunch into the a la carte options. While their double crunch pizza is the piece de resistance, their “Newpolitan” pizzas are obvious winners too, showcasing both traditional and modern flavours.

TRYFor cheeseheads, the Pachino will do no wrong. Think 24-month-aged Parmigiano Reggiano, luscious tomatoes from Pachino and fresh basil. Simple yet intensely flavoured.

Formerly known as a pop-up concept to pizza-loving hipsters, Puffy Bois has gained much fanfare from their restaurant takeovers at Caffe Fernet, Tippling Club and Meatsmith. Now, the fun-loving entourage finds a permanent home on Bali Lane in the trendy Bugis enclave.Chow down on five different pizza options that either go by the slice orwhole (from $6 and from $22 respectively). The base is made from a 36-hour sourdough, resulting in a nice crackling snap when bitten into while the middle remains nice and chewy. Here, classics like a meaty pepperoni or the moreish margherita are well-made and hard to beat.

TRY Sink your teeth into playful creations ofcrisped-up savoury parma ham with sweet pickled chillis, roasted artichokes on spiced butter chicken gravy, and an oceanic combination of clams and squid ink. By the side is a punchy housemade lao gan ma-inspired chilli that is best chased with your leftover crusts.

As far as we know, Milano Pizza & Wine is the only restaurant in Singapore where you can order up Sicilian grandma pizza. They do also offer regular Neapolitan pizzas, just that they pride themselves on baking their naturally fermented sourdough base higher and longer. Since it’s all done in a stone-fired oven, you can expect a charred crust and a chewy texture. Like any solid pizzeria, they do have a classic Margherita ($26), but you could also try the more unique pizzas: crab & lobster bisque ($42) or the beef cheek bolognese ($34).

TRYTheobvious pièce de résistance is the Sicilian grandma pizza. Airy and light, but still somewhat dense thanks to the crispy edges. If you're only having one, go for the Mortadella & Burrata Sicilian Grandma Pizza ($27).

This cosy 36-seater is the latest baby of The Cicheti Group. At Wild Child Pizzette, flour, water, yeast – and fresh ideas – are mixed to create unconventional plates. Everything comes served on a smaller 10-inch canvas, which then comes topped with bagna cauda, pickled onions, and kale ($18.50) or a trio of cheeses ($19).

TRYFried pizza ($21) is worth an order – best washed down with some homemade chilli oil and sips of wine or sake.

Italian Osteria X

This tiny Italian joint seats just two tables. There’s nothing snazzy about the storefront and the menu’s a simple one-pager, but Italian Osteria X has already made its impact on the local food scene. With the chef-owner having trained in a Michelin-starred restaurant in New York City, you can expect some NYC influence on these pizzas - hand-tossed and with a thin, crisp crust.

TRY Their Parma Garden pizza ($19.90) for a classic combo: parma ham, arugula and mozzarella cheese.

Blue Label Pizza and Wine

Set up by American chef Travis Masiero, the brains behind Luke’s Oyster Bar and Chop House, Blue Label follows that same NYC to SG formula for success. Follow the flickering “pizza and wine” neon sign and you’ll find the restaurant in B28’s old digs. Instead of chill jazz tunes, the space reverberates with Guns N’ Roses and AC/DC and people screaming over each other trying to get a word in.

TRYStart with the Chicago-style spinach and artichoke dip ($21), it's not pizza but one of the best things you'll ever eat. For pizza, there’s the J-Dog ($35) an upgrade on the meat lovers packed with pork sausage, bacon, pepperoni and a tinge of spice from finely cubed jalapeños. Plus The Travis Supreme ($33) – if you’ve ever wondered what a McDonald’s cheeseburger pizza would taste like, here’s your answer.

Chooby Pizza

At Chooby Pizza, it’s a cafe (Old Hen Kitchen) by day but a busy pizzeria by night. Their specialty lies in Naples-style pizza, a light and thin crust that typically features an overload of tomato and mozzarella cheese. It helps that their dough is naturally leavened too, meaning that it’s been left to ferment longer - which helps create an entirely new depth of flavour.

When a pizza shop is open just three days a week, there’s bound to be a crowd clambering for seats. Reservations open every Monday, 12pm - you can book here ($30 deposit needed).

TRY The Spiced Coconut Chicken ($18) for a Thai-inspired pizza. It uses a lightly spicy tom kha sauce, chilli oil and coriander, while balancing flavours with a mild grana padano and mozzarella cheese.

Japanese restaurants aren’t where most get their pizza fix, but Ristorante Luka is certainly onto a good thing with their wood-fired pizzas. Both rosso (red) and bianca (white) pies make an appearance in this Italian-Japanese spot. Some of their pizzas are evidently inspired by Japanese cuisine, like their Bianca Bianchetti ($26) which comes with white bait, seaweed and anchovies.

TRY The tomato-based Bismark ($26), with its oozy mozzarella cheese and scattering of mushroom, egg and bacon. Otherwise, their Chef’s Omakase Platter (from $22/person) with uni egg and foie gras dorayaki also make an excellent start to a meal.

Sonny’s Pizza

No doubt that the origin of pizza is Italy, but its honorary hometown? New York City. The pies at Sonny’s Pizza are inspired by the grab-and-go culture of high-speed NYC. They’re sold by the slice so not exactly artisanal, but delish nonetheless. Their pies are made using a low-gluten 00 flour and fresh beer yeast, which promises a pizza that’s equal parts crispy and chewy.

TRY Their “I’m Going Green” slice for $6.50. Put aside all prior beliefs: a vegetarian pizza can be as tasty as a meat-based pie, and this pizza with mushrooms and a rich bechamel sauce proves just that.

Far from the thin-crust, crisp pizzas we know, Goldenroy Sourdough Pizza specialises in San Francisco-style sourdough dough. It’s more airy than it is fluffy, and they’re appropriately heavy-handed with the ingredients - it makes for a substantial bite. It’s a delivery-only or pick-up pizza joint and is available for online order here.

TRY A standout is their aptly-named That-10K-Bitcoin-Pizza which comes with handfuls of beef pepperoni and rare cheese.

Here’s a place that takes its pizza very seriously. In fact, Pizzeria L’Operetta is the onlyrestaurant in Singapore to be certified by the Associazone Verace Pizza Napoletana (AVPN), which means it follows an internationally consistent procedure tocreatea ’True Neapolitan Pizza’ – from dough preparation right down to the type of ingredients used.

TRY Bufala ($25), made with ingredients (tomato sauce, buffalo mozzarella, basil, and parmesan) sourced from the Campania regions will bring you closer to the Naples with every bite.

The crown jewel of new InterContinental Singapore Robertson Quay, Publico, is drop-dead gorgeous. Think granite floors laid in bold geometric patterns that call to mind Italy’s many piazzas, dramatic green walls that double up as vertical gardens, furniture set in neutral hues that channel breezy coastal vibes, and floor-to-ceiling windows that open out to the riverside terrace.

TRYGo for the classic margherita($26) or live your cheesy dreams to the fullest with its range of other pies like the burrata ($35) or the diavola($32).

Cicheti

In true Italian fashion – although we'd argue that Cicheti's food refuses to be pigeonholed and instead offers a mix of Mediterranean and Singaporean flavours as well – the menu is split into sections of antipasti, primi, second, pizza and dolci. Cicheti's beloved Neapolitan-style pizzas ($18-$28) are undoubtedly a highlight on the menu, all nicely charred in its wood-fired oven imported from Italy, of course.

TRYPopular options include carbonara ($25), Bismark ($26), and more.

Like the scenic Capri island, this restaurant whets the appetite with the coastal destination’s strong focus on fresh seafood. The pizza selection here leans traditional, with a base of tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese, topped with ingredients ranging from tuna flakes ($24) to in-house air-dried beef with truffle oil ($28)

TRY Cheese lovers should opt for the Quattro Formaggi ($25), a white pizza filled with a cheesy blend of gorgonzola, mozzarella, scamorza, and parmesan cheese.

La Nonna, meaning"The Grandmother" in Italian is a charming and rustic restaurant where you can expect hearty Italiandishes a jolly grandmother would make. Besides the pasta dishes, pizza is also what La Nonna does best. Everything served is good for sharing so the more, the merrier!

TRY Get the signature La Nonna Pizza ($24.50) that comes with a gooey egg and black truffle. For the cheese connoisseur, try theCinqueFormaggi ($23.90)that has some goat cheese in the mix.

When a man meets your eye with a big pizza pie, that’s amore – especially if that man is chef Beppe De Vito and the pizza’s from his new restaurant, Amò. Part of the ilLido Group, the eatery is sophisticated yet casual, with dim lights that draw all attention to the open kitchen where De Vito and his pizza chef Federico Schiraldi toss dough through the air before it’s baked in a wood-fired oven that’s made in Italy, of course. Schiraldi’s pizzas are light and doughy, with a crisp and slightly charred base. But if you’re looking for variety, you’re not going to find it here – there are only eight pizzas on the menu.

TRYOpt for one with creamy stracciatella buffalo cheese, prosciutto, rocket, and fig vincotto ($32), which is an Italian vinegar similar to balsamic but a touch stickier and sweeter. There’s also a pie with mushrooms, truffle, mascarpone and a generous shaving of pecorino from Tuscany ($35).

Bella Pizza serves your usual fare of red and white pizzas but they do it really well. Easily one of the best slices in town, it's the classics that stand out. On top of that, it alsohas Sicilian pizza boats which are essentially boat-shaped pizzas and layered with ingredients like ham and cheese and calzones, a folded pizza stuffed with all the good things stuffed in it.

TRYGo for a simple red pizza like the Pizza Burrata ($28) or get on a Sicilian pizza boat with the Barca Siciliana con Bufala E Prosciutto ($26), where you have roasted tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella wrapped in lots of prosciutto.

Peperoni Pizzeria started out in 2004 in a leafy enclave at Greenwood, welcoming friends and families with comforting Italian classics and a warm atmosphere. While Peperoni’s wood-fired pizzas and traditional pastas are well loved by the young and old alike, over the years, the pizzeria has become synonymous with its signature offering – the one-of-a-kind XXL 21-inch pizzas. From prosciutto to pepperoni, ham, chicken, and seafood, there is something for everyone on the menu.

TRYProsciutto Di Parma ($62 for XXL) with parma ham, rocket salad and shaved parmesan and Frutti Di Mare ($62 for XXL), a seafood lover's dream.

La Braceria

Hearty, rustic Italian cooking is the draw at La Braceria. Wonderful, thin-crust pizzas with dense, flavourful toppings emerge from the blackened dome of the oven, but best of all are the home-made sausages – fat tubes stuffed with fresh meat, marinated for days in a secret blend of seasonings and spices. It’s very popular and can get pretty squashed on weekends.

TRYAlla Bismark ($25)with mozzarella, cooked ham, egg and creamy truffle and Calzone ($23) which is pretty much a folded pizza full of tomato, mozzarella, cooked ham, mushrooms and parmesan cheese.

Bonus points for its grungy, back alley vibes.

Wood-fired pizzas and craft beer land on the quiet side of Bussorah Street, with Spanish chef Matteo Boifava – who’s spent three months at Heston Blumenthal’s Fat Duck part of his culinary experience – heading the kitchen. The rustic and traditional dishes are paradoxical to its interiors – Boifava channels more of his Italian roots than cutting edge Blumenthal innovation.

TRY Even if it's a vegetarian option, it still packs a punch: try theVegetariana ($22) with mozzarella and grilled eggplant. For a meatier option, choose theGorgonzola Fichi e Prosciutto di Parma ($30) with parma ham andfigs.

The Italian restaurant at Fairmont Singapore went through a revamp, and with it a new space serving hearty Italian fare. Piping hot pizzas from its brick wall ovens are a highlight of the menu. Those who aren’t fans of thick, chewycrusts will appreciate Prego’s wood-fired version: light, airy, and crisp.

TRY Prego ($40). The name might not sound creative, but the restaurant’s signature pizza is topped with a winning combination of sun-dried tomatoes, ham, mushrooms, fresh cream, and parmesan that will have you going back for seconds.

The brains behind OverEasy are combining the Neapolitan and Roman styles in its twin Woodstone pizza ovens: chewy and tender meets thin and crisp. The dough for each of the ten pizza selections is hand-stretched, made with soft-grain Italia Caputo 00 flour from Naples and topped with organic Californian Saporito tomatoes.

TRYIf you fancy an egg on your pizza, pick the Guanciale & Egg ($27), a white-based pizza with béchamel, mozzarella, Italian cured pork jowl and an egg cracked in the middle of it. Or else stick to a good ol' classic like the margherita ($20).

Sitting alone in a lesser-known corner of Robertson Quay, this modern Italian restaurant’s decor echoes the sweet satisfaction of the eponymous liqueur after a meal. White wicker chairs at modern wooden tables are spaciously arranged indoors and on an outdoor terrace. Drawing from the cuisine of the Amalfi coast, wood-fired pizzas are pulled from the white brick oven, while charcoal-grilled meats and seafood are the specialities.

TRYNamed after the restaurant, the Limoncello ($29) is a white-based pizza topped with mozzarella, beef sausage, porcini mushrooms, button mushrooms and parmesan. For a good red pizza option, stick to the Diavola ($24) with tomato, mozzarella and spicy salame.
