Nine Inspectors’ Favorites in Florida in 2025

"Celebrated as a fantastic new Bib Gourmand centered around pizza with a spark of originality, this casual, contemporary spot in trendy Flagler Village shows how being single-minded can pay off. It’s all about pizza here, with a few pastas, salads, and starters like crispy Roman artichokes, but the pies are far from run-of-the-mill marinara-topped discs. Instead, they’re highly customized with different sauces and unusually appealing toppings, exemplified by a squash blossom and cold-pulled burrata pizza sauced with chunky sherry marinara. The style leans more New York than Neapolitan, making it hard to leave leftovers, though it’s worth trying, since dessert shouldn’t be missed—especially the olive oil cake topped with mascarpone whip and served with strawberry sauce and vanilla semi freddo." - Nancy DePalma
