February 9 is World Pizza Day. In Lyon, as in the rest of the world, the Neapolitan specialty is worshipped by a veritable cult. To honor this popular dish, we’ve listed the 7 best pizzerias in Lyon.
Gio Gio Pizzerias
A little nugget just a stone’s throw from Place Bellecour, Gio Gio Pizzeria is the talk of the Presqu’île. Quality ingredients, Italian craftsmanship and a venue as modern as it is cozy, this pizzeria really does have it all. A flawless performance!
📍 4 Rue Confort, 69002 Lyon
Casa Nobile
A veritable institution in Lyon, the Casa Nobile is a Sicilian trattoria that’s always packed to the rafters. With no reservations since 2017 due to the long waiting list, customers are prepared to queue for several hours every day to get a taste of its famous Italian dishes – including its famous pizzas.
📍 3 Pl. de l’Hôpital, 69002 Lyon
Stile Italiano
Looking to get away from it all? Head for Italy with a dinner reservation at Stile Italiano! The brand’s delicious risottos, pastas and above all its wide choice of pizzas have contributed to its reputation, making it a must in the 2nd arrondissement. Unquestionably one of the best pizzerias in Lyon!
📍 21 Rue Sainte-Hélène, 69002 Lyon
La Scala Siciliana
A small trattoria in the 3rd arrondissement, Scala Siciliana offers generous, ultra-gourmet pizzas to eat in or take away. Pizza parmiggiana, trufalina or tartufo, the hardest part is choosing!
📍3Rue Commandant Dubois, 69003 Lyon
Le Piccolo
If you can’t tell from the outside what kind of culinary experience you’re in for, you’d be wrong not to stop! In the 7th arrondissement, the Piccolo neighborhood pizzeria offers a simple, effective menu. Four-cheese pizza, honey goat cheese or truffle, the menu features all the great classics, simple but masterful. That’s all we asked!
📍 5 Rue des Trois Pierres, 69007 Lyon
Vico Pizzzza
It’s a real love story between Vico Pizzza and us. Born during the period of confinement, the pizzeria is only a few years old, but has already managed to conquer the hearts of the Lyonnais. Special mention for the Mortadella Al Pistacchio, which we think is the best on the menu!
📍 72 Rue Auguste Comte, 69002 Lyon
Pizza Cosy
Of course, it’s a franchise. But given the quality of the products, it would be wrong not to tell you about them. In Croix-Rousse, the 2nd, 3rd and 6th arrondissements, Pizza Cosy offers original recipes for everyone. Market pizza with beet cream, vegetarian tartufine or haute savoyarde, there’s something for everyone!
