UTAH – When it comes to pizza, Utah probably isn’t the first, or even second state that comes to mind for the best pie. Regardless, there are plenty of good options to scratch that pizza itch, which made narrowing the list down to just five difficult. Taking into account value, taste, environment, and other factors, here are the top five pizza places in Utah!
5. Two Jacks - Provo
For great-tasting, filling pizza that won’t break the bank, you can’t go wrong with Two Jacks. A cut above the chain stores, Two Jacks is the perfect party pizza. Looking to feed a large group pizza that’s better than the national chain on the corner without dropping a fortune? Two Jacks has you covered.
4. The Pi Pizzeria - Salt Lake City
A classic for students of the University of Utah and beyond, the Pi Pizzeria in Salt Lake has been serving up quality slices for decades. Whether you fold your pizza like an authentic New Yorker or flat on the plate, the Pi offers a great New York-style-adjacent pizza that consistently delivers.
3. Slackwater - Ogden
In an environment that feels almost like an outdoor store-meets-restaurant, our number three pick offers great food for a great price. There’s a little something for everyone at Slackwater, and with the ability to order any pizza as a calzone, you’re bound to leave with a full stomach, and a wallet that’s not too far behind.
2. Rusted Sun - Salt Lake City
Number two on our list could easily have been number one. The Rusted Sun in Salt Lake features handmade artisan pizza that is bursting with flavor. The unique menu brings amazing flavor combinations that will keep you coming back again and again. Despite a small dining room, this meal is definitely worth the wait.
1. Antica Forma - Moab
Finally, number one is Antica Forma down in Moab. So many visitors go to Moab for the outdoor recreation, and rightly so, but, nestled right in downtown is perhaps the best pizza place in the state. Antica Forma’s housemade mozzarella, their desert pizza, and their woodfire oven give this restaurant its first-place rating. λ
