Sure, the triangle slice is close to a\u00a0New\u00a0York\u00a0slice,\u00a0it\u00a0has the ability to\u00a0fold with ease\u00a0yet\u00a0still retains that telltale crispness. The square versions easily draw similarities to\u00a0 Detroit\u00a0slices, with their sharp caramelized edges that encase a puffed-up center of dough. But, however you want to slice it (see what we did there?), we call it seriously good. Because what seals the deal for us is how Tuttolomondo tops his pies. The Angry Nonna is a solid trifecta of hot soppressata, Calabrian chili oil\u00a0and\u00a0hot honey. But one bite of the Cacio\u00a0E\u00a0Pepe with its creamy base of\u00a0marscapone, aged\u00a0mozz\u00a0and\u00a0a literal shower of Pecorino Romano and Parmigiano Reggiano\u00a0ranked\u00a0in the life-changing category.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"2a5cd860-3604-b6b4-68db-d5c00bafa997\" class=\"photo lazy inline\" loading=\"lazy\" data-component=\"lazy-embed\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1761320188_281_image.webp.webp\" alt=\"L'Industrie\" data-caption=\"\" data-credit=\"Photograph: Courtesy L'Industrie\/Emerald Layne\" data-width-class=\"\" data-image-id=\"106056390\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\nPhotograph: Courtesy L&#8217;Industrie\/Emerald Layne&#13;<\/p>\n<p>A close second on the list is the one and only <strong><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/newyork\/restaurants\/lindustrie-pizzeria\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">L\u2019Industrie Pizzeria<\/a><\/strong>. Regardless of its 2017 opening date, both of Massimo Laveglia\u2019s shops draw steady single-file lines every day. <\/p>\n<p>Before you utter the phrase, \u201cI don\u2019t do lines,\u201d we are here to report that the slices are absolutely worth waiting for. Laveglia\u2019s long-fermented doughs lead to a crispy thin, shattery crust that you can quite literally hear. And Laveglia\u2019s leans on his Tuscan roots for toppings, as slices don strips of prosciutto, fig jam and truffle.\u00a0But the best in the house has to be\u00a0the\u00a0Burrata Pie, which always comes dressed with two creamy dollops of the cold stuff on it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"033f3269-1685-871c-dbf3-27c05f53e643\" class=\"photo lazy inline\" loading=\"lazy\" data-component=\"lazy-embed\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1761320192_191_image.webp.webp\" alt=\"A pizza with pepperoni and basil\" data-caption=\"| Lucali\" data-credit=\"Photograph: Morgan Carter\" data-width-class=\"\" data-image-id=\"106320713\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\nPhotograph: Morgan Carter| Lucali&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Coming in at number three is another pizzeria\u00a0that also demands some waiting: <strong><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/newyork\/restaurants\/lucali\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lucali\u2019s<\/a><\/strong>.
