The chart produces several annual rankings and they\u2019ve just dropped their latest list of the greatest pizzerias in Europe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Paesano, on Mitchell Lane, is famed for their mouthwatering “100 per cent Authentic Neapolitan pizza<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

The judges said: “The space is furnished in a post-industrial style with iron and wood, featuring a large bar counter that dominates the room.<\/p>\n

“However, the name and wood-fired oven bring us back to the typically Italian dimension where food is the result of artisanal craftsmanship with fresh products.<\/p>\n

“The goal of this Scottish<\/a> establishment is very clear: to be obsessed with Neapolitan pizza, with a dough that is left to rise for 24 hours in the Coccia style.<\/p>\n

“And a traditional menu where the great Neapolitan classics are combined with local flavours and seasonality.<\/p>\n

“Perfect and efficient service, great atmosphere in the dining room, and an unmissable drink selection.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Salerno customers go wild for their fresh, Napoletana dishes using the “finest traditional Italian ingredients”.<\/p>\n

The pizza guide review reads: “A pizzeria called Salerno that serves a perfect Neapolitan pizza: something that may have seemed strange until a few years ago.<\/p>\n

“Just as in the Campania city, a fantastic Mediterranean experience is also lived in the Scottish capital.<\/p>\n

“The atmosphere is very beautiful and personalised with wicker baskets used as chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, a large counter with a visible oven.<\/p>\n

“The pizzas have a good leavening and in addition to the classics, many are ‘reinforced’ according to local tastes but always with Italian products: ham, salami, dairy products.<\/p>\n

“The service is cheerful and youthful, with a menu of Italian wines, beers, and excellent cocktails that complete an unmissable offer of quality when in this magnificent city.”<\/p>\n

Also making the chart were Napoli<\/a> on the Road, London<\/a>, Da Valentina, Paris, Calvello\u2019s, Munich and Pizza Popolare in Reykjav\u00edk.<\/p>\n
