Our Approach to Pizza Rating

When it comes to rating pizza, I focus on three key components: the crust, the sauce, and the toppings.
While cheese is an essential part of pizza,
it usually doesn't have a significant impact on the rating.

To determine the overall score, I calculate the average of the individual scores for the crust, sauce, and toppings. Now, the question arises: does the perfect pizza truly exist?


Worst pizza ever 0-1 · Pretty bad, but edible 1-2
Won't eat again 2-3 · Standard pizza, would eat again 3-4
My favorite pizza 4-4.5 · Nearly perfect 4.5-4.9
Reserved for the best pizza in the world 5.0
