Rejoice, Filipino pizza fans!
Two Philippine pizzerias rank among the 50 best pizzerias of the Asia Pacific (APAC) region this year, both placing in the top 10 restaurants.
Crosta Pizzeria, run by Ingga S. Cabangon Chua and Thomas Wudwyk and helmed by Yuichi Ito, is the top pizzeria in the country. Ranking 5th on the list, the restaurant is renowned not only for its sourdough crust, but also for its multitude of pizza offerings — even catering to different diets and lifestyles.
Here, dough, wine, and local favorites converge, offering a little bit of something for everyone. Crosta currently has two branches, one in Makati and another in San Juan.
At 9th place, Amado Forés’ A Mano rounds out the two Philippine pizzerias in the list. Known for its traditional approach to pizza, the outcome is light and easily digestible, yet still incredibly contemporary. One of its locally flavored pizzas, the authentic Ilonggo Chorizo Pizza, is a stellar choice to try, among many other flavors.
Joining the two Philippine pizzerias on the list are RistoPizza by Napoli Sta Ca (1st, Japan), The Pizza Bar on 38th (2nd, Japan), Fiata (3rd, Hong Kong), Gigi’s (3rd, Australia), Spacca Napoli (4th, South Korea), Massilia (6th, Thailand), SHOP225 (7th, Australia), Pizzeria Braceria CESARI!! (8th, Japan), and Bottega (10th, China).
According to the 50 Top Pizza, the Top 15 Best Pizzerias will automatically enter the Top 100 Best Pizzerias in the World. All will meet in Naples for the announcement in September 2026.
