The 14 Best Pizza Places In Philadelphia

"At the original Tacconelli’s in Port Richmond, it's better to reserve your dough ahead of time so they know exactly how much pizza to make for your group. If that seems ridiculous, then you’ve never had a slice of pizza here. If there’s an equation that determines the perfect ratio of cheese to sauce on a pizza, Tacconelli’s has it stashed away on a piece of paper in a vault somewhere. The crust is crispy and super thin, so don't add more than two toppings to your pizza unless you want half of them to end up on the plate. But you really want a plain pie here, anyway—each slice folds in half like it has a perforated edge right down the middle." - candis mclean, alison kessler
