Italy and United States share top spot for pizzeria of the year but pizza maker of the year goes to Peppe Cutraro of Peppe Pizzeria in Paris

September 7, 2022 by Ivan Brincat Leave a Comment

Peppe Cutraro of Peppe Pizzeria in Paris was awarded with the pizza maker of the year award. Meanwhile Francesco Martucci’s I Masanielli in Caserta and Anthony Mangieri’s Una Pizza Napoletana in New York have tied for the best pizzeria in the world.

The results were unveiled by the 50 Top Pizza list released at the Palazzo Reale in Naples. Third place went to Giuseppe Cutraro’s Peppe Pizzeria in Paris. This was the first time that a 50 Top Pizza World list was compiled.

50 Kalo and 10 Diego Vitagliano Pizzeria in Naples captured fourth and fifth place, sixth went to I Tigli in San Bonifacio, seventh to to Francesco and Salvatore Salvo pizzeria in Naples, eight to Seu Pizza Illuminati in Rome, ninth to La Notizia 94 in Naples and Tony’s Pizza Napoletana in San Francisco took the 10th position.

Forty Italian pizzerias, 25 from Europe, 15 from the United States, 15 from Asia-Pacific, 4 in South America and 1 in Africa complete the 2022 classification for the top 100 positions.

50 Top Pizza World 2022, the ranking of the best pizzerias in the world, was designed by 50 Top Pizza, an online guide created and curated by Barbara Guerra, Albert Sapere and by the journalist Luciano Pignataro.  The guide selects the best pizzerias in Italy and around the world.  This first edition of the worldwide ranking was full of excitement and great satisfaction for all of the participating pizza makers and for the three curators: “This classification – they say – was made possible thanks to the annual work of our inspectors who collaborate with this project.  They have examined and assessed an enormous number of pizzerias all over the world.  As per the policy of our guide, this was always executed under absolute anonymity. 

This was an extremely important challenge – continue the curators. – After presenting the guides for Europe, the USA, Italy, Asia-Pacific, the selection from South America and from Africa, we invited the top establishments from each ranking to Naples for the final worldwide classification for 2022.

This guide encompasses many different styles of pizza, even if, obviously, the Neapolitan style, both classic and contemporary, is the most popular.  The most important cities for pizzas in terms of quality are:  Naples above all, then New York, Tokyo and São Paulo.  We are immensely satisfied because this journey around the world to capture the current pizza panorama was particularly rewarding.”
