Finding The Best Waltham Pizza

By Amy Phillips


Pizza is such a popular dish that many have sought to open a pizzeria or pizza restaurant around to give in to the demand for it. If you are in the city of Waltham, Massachusetts then you are probably thinking of where to buy the best Waltham pizza around. Of course there are several criteria for this before you make a decision.

Typing out the query of where the best pizza places in Waltham are will give you a list of about twenty top favorites, mostly voted in by Yelp voters. This does not mean that they serve the best pizza, but actually are pizzerias that have pizza on the menu among other things. They are voted as best but not for the pizza they serve. It will be really up to you then to go out and search for yourself if decide to, just be mindful of some basic facts.

Non traditional and traditional varieties of the famous Italian flat bread abound in Waltham. The ones closest to the traditional make will be the ones of the Marinara variety, excluding variations that has pineapples and fruits in it like the Hawaiian. In essence, the best ones become the best because of the sauce that is used and that is basically it.

Most if not all the pizzerias in Waltham will have the Margherita as well as the ever popular pepperoni on hand. A rule of thumb on pizzas however, is that if it has five or less toppings on it, then the closer it is to the original how the Italians want it to be, but the jury is still out on anchovies though. Most Italians will say seafood and fruits do not belong on top of their beloved flat breads.

Neapolitan flavors, although also available may not be as authentic as what is required. The real Neapolitan will require San Marino tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella cheese, ingredients not readily available anywhere. You can choose also from thin or thick crusts for your pie. In relation to this, your crusts can also be chosen as either crispy or chewy depending on your taste.

Non traditional ones which are of the deep dish variety, such as the Chicago and the New Yorker are also available in this city. Taste will vary of course depending on what crust you will want to have these in and also definitely the kind of sauce that is used. You will just have to decide for yourself again.

If you are one that likes their crust crispier than normal, with the additional smokier flavor, then you should go for ones that are baked in wood fire ovens. Thus look for a pizzeria with a wood burning oven, it will not be hard to find for those with such ovens will usually advertise it. They will always assert that their creations, due to the oven, will be more authentic than most.

And there you have it, how to look for the best pizza in the city of Waltham. Just stick to the rule of the thumb, the better the sauce the better the creation, and the lesser ingredients the more traditional it is basically. And of course, if real blooded Italians go to the same place, then it must be a good place to start.
