Niseko Pizza consistently ranks as the best pizza parlor in town, although most pizza places are considered among the best globally. Therefore, for this review, I’ll focus on the Alpha, the top-tier establishment.
One standout feature of Niseko Pizza is its wooden plates. Unlike other places, these plates absorb moisture, allowing you to enjoy your pizza for a few more minutes. This is particularly beneficial when the pizza is topped with ingredients like tomatoes or wet mushrooms, which can quickly make a regular plate soggy.
The toppings at Niseko Pizza are generous, so you’ll likely find extra cheese and meat on the crust. While most places serve pizza crosswise, Niseko offers a unique experience where you can almost get a second bite of the crust.
Another unique offering at Niseko Pizza is chinotto cola, a classic Italian take on Coke. Pairing this cola with the pizza creates a flavor combination that transcends the traditional taste profile. It’s a nostalgic experience that adds a special touch to the meal.
The overall flavor profile of Niseko Pizza is more robust compared to other pizza places. The grizzle on the dough, the punchier garlic, and the stronger cheese all contribute to a satisfying flavor that complements the cold weather. While delicate and sophisticated flavors are possible, the deeper flavors at Niseko Pizza seem to be a better match for the chilly weather.
