12. Pizzeria Bianco • Phoenix, AZ
Begun in 1988 in the corner of a local grocery store, Pizzeria Bianco has become a Phoenix favorite. Artisanal pizza, a sandwich shop, a bar and even cans of the restaurant’s organic red sauce are available to further whet your appetite.

13. Pepe’s Pizzeria Napoletana • New Haven, CT
As a young man, Frank Pepe immigrated to the United States from his native Italy.  He and his wife opened Pepe’s in 1925 and quickly established it as a New Haven favorite. Pepe’s grandchildren still own and operate the restaurants using their grandfather’s recipes.
