Savoy Pizza in Azabujuban was an unforgettable experience! The pizzas are super freshly made, with an authenticity that’s hard to find outside of Italy. The chef himself had an incredible aura—rocking those sexy sunglasses while crafting each pizza with precision. His methodical approach was stellar, hand-making every pizza with care and expertise. My favorite was the Marinara pizza—the preparation was next level, with thinly sliced garlic. I also tried the Pacific Tuna pizza, which was surprisingly amazing! I didn’t expect to love it as much as I did, but the combination was unique and delicious. This place has mastered simplicity, letting high-quality ingredients shine. While I’ll always be more of a fan of NYC-style pizza (I love that crisp crust!), I can absolutely appreciate the appeal of this authentic Neapolitan style.

A great spot for truly delicious pizza, with some creative twists like the tuna pizza that pleasantly surprised us. The dough was soft, the flavors were excellent, and sitting right in front of the oven added to the experience. The staff and chef were welcoming and attentive, which really made the visit special. The only reason for the 4-star rating is the indoor temperature — it was quite warm, and a cooler environment would’ve made the seating more comfortable. Otherwise, a fantastic place we’d gladly return to.

Best pizza we’ve had in Tokyo – proper wood-fired, springy base, spot-on flavours. The stewed tripe was a surprise highlight! Great vibes and warm service, just a bit too hot inside.

My sister and I tried two pizzas here, the margarita and a special and both were incredible. The crust was fluffy, soft, and light. We came at the end of the night, and actually saw the chef tossing out leftover dough, since they make it fresh every day. That attention to freshness really showed in the taste. Absolutely worth a visit for great pizza.

Savoy in Tokyo is a pizza haven. Reservations are recommended, but if you can’t secure one, arrive early when they open at 5:30 PM, as it fills up quickly. The appetizers were outstanding: the octopus salad was refreshing, with tender octopus paired perfectly with crisp bell peppers, and the sautéed mushrooms, featuring a vibrant mix of varieties, were packed with flavor. The “Pizza O” was phenomenal—its soft, chewy crust had a delightful bounce and texture, complemented by a magnificent, well-balanced tomato sauce. Generous Ozaki beef portions added a rich, savory depth. The service was exceptional, with our waitress speaking perfect English, ensuring language was never a barrier. The upbeat vibe and counter seating, where I watched the pizza master at work, made the experience truly memorable. A must-visit!

After several years of trying, we finally made it to Savoy Azabujuban—and it was well worth the wait. We sat at the counter right next to the oven, which was definitely warm but added to the experience. It was fun watching the action up close, and pizzaiolo Yasushi was incredibly kind and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The only real downside: the main reason for our visit, the “Y Pizza” with tuna, was unfortunately sold out. That said, the pizzas we did try were absolutely delicious—perhaps a touch on the salty side, but that seems to be quite typical in Japanese cuisine and didn’t take away from the flavor at all. To top it off, we had some truly lovely counter neighbors who brought great conversation and helped make the evening even more enjoyable. We left Savoy with a great memory and one more reason to return—next time, we’re getting that tuna pizza!🍕

Exceptional pizza — far beyond expectations. I tried the Tuna, Wagyu, and Diavolo pizzas at Savoy Azabujuban, and each one was outstanding in its own way. The crust was near perfect — pillowy and light with just the right amount of chew, beautifully charred from the wood-fired oven. Not soggy, not dry — exactly how Neapolitan pizza should be. For those unfamiliar, Neapolitan-style pizza has a naturally thin, airy crust with a bit of char and a subtle smoky flavor. It’s nothing like your typical chain pizza — this isn’t Papa John’s. The Tuna pizza was the standout: sushi-grade bluefin, gently seared, paired with fresh wasabi. It was unexpected but incredibly balanced and flavorful. The Wagyu pizza was rich and decadent, and the Diavolo offered just the right amount of spice to round things out. I’ve had highly rated Neapolitan pizza in Naples, but honestly, Savoy delivered a better overall experience — from the dough to the toppings. It’s a must-visit for any pizza lover.

I'm not a chef, but I'm Italian, I love pizzas, and I ate my fair amount of pizzas in Italy and elsewhere.. And Savoy's pizzas are just Wow! We tried them all, they're all excellent but their tuna pizza is both innovative and stunning! The best pizza I've ever had without a doubt. Complimenti allo chef👍

My last meal in Japan was at Savoy, and it was absolutely incredible! They open for lunch and dinner. When I arrived at 12 PM, the line was 20 deep. Some groups were willing to split up so they could be seated faster. They have two benches that you sit once you're really close. Everyone else stands single file on the sidewalk and doesn't block the path for those who are passing by. I waited for 30-45 min and it was completely worth it. They say me down at the corner of the bar. The entire restaurant was bustling and both counters were packed. I ordered the lunch set which came with iced peach tea, salad, and your choice or either a Margherita pizza or marinara pizza. I went with Margherita and it was perfection. The mozzarella and basil were so fresh and tasty. The dough was the perfect balance or chewy without being too burnt at the crust with the right amount is sauce, not too much and not too little. The personal pan pizza was perfect for one. I saw others ordering a second pizza. All staff were friendly and you need to remember that they are cash only. I would like to go back and try one of their speciality pizzas. My friend recommended this spot to me and I am so happy I went! Hope you'll go too if you're craving a perfect pizza.

The wait for walk ins was not bad compared to other TikTok viral restaurants we visited. Unique combinations here (wasabi with pizza!?). The crust was chewy with a fantastic char. The toppings were incredibly fresh and flavorful. The service was also top-notch - friendly and attentive. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed and delicious meal. Highly recommend on your next Tokyo trip when you want something other than ramen, sushi, or a bento box.

We visited Savoy pizza while in Tokyo (traveling from Austin, Texas). There's a sitting area out front where you can wait with no reservation, we waited about 30 minutes on a Friday evening at 6pm-ish. Pizza was good, not great but still worth a visit. A little less oil on the pizza would have been preferable.

Best pizza I've ever eaten in my life, and that says a lot. Small restaurant, doesn't take reservations, and it's all bar seating. My partner and I both had a pizza each, which sounds like a lot but it's actually quite thin. We loved the BLUE FIN TUNA & WAGYU PIZZA & THE WAGYU PIZZA on it's own. A very different thing was putting wasabi on the pizza! I thought I'd hate it, but I loved it!! ENJOY! PS: Coming 10 min before they open is perfect timing.

The crust on this pizza is heavenly. It is so bready and rich, a result of their special fermentation technique. My favorite part of Savoy was the crust. We got the tuna pizza and the toppings were DELICIOUS. The tuna was nicely seared. There was no tomato sauce, but the pizza didn't feel too oily. Whatever ratio of ingredients they had, it all just worked. We tried both matcha and sake crust. I liked the matcha more, but I think original crust should be fine too. Staff were very friendly. I liked the seating, as you can see them preparing and firing the pizzas right in front of you.

A friend recommended Savoy to us on our trip to Japan, and it was some of the best pizza that I have had. We made a reservation, but the restaurant was pretty empty at ~6pm on a weekday. We were able to get seated early. Upon entering the restaurant, we were seated at the counter where we can see the chef make and fire the pizzas. We got the tuna pizza- a large chunk of raw tuna (with the outside seared bc the pizza went into the oven) with a cream sauce and lots of cheese. The crust was heavenly. It was light, fluffy, chewy with just the right amount of char. Amazing pizza place and definitely would recommend!

Wanted to try pizza in japan and we were suggested this place. It was cold and rainy so we just ordered uber eats to our hotel (which may have been a mistake). The pizza came out looking really good, but the dough ended up really soggy and oily. This might have been the result of having it delivered, but i would have preferred the undercarriage of the pizza slices to be a bit more crispy. The crust was super breast (in a good way), and there was a ton of flavor in both pizzas. I preferred the one without as much cheese, since after the pizza cooled the cheese had a bit of a waxy feel to it. Would recommend (in person) and the pizzas are a bit small for the price.

This was our second dinner meal of the day (first place did not quite fill us), and boy were we lucky to have Savoy as the next place. Italian pizza in Japan? why not. Now while we are not pizza connoisseur, we can at least tell good pizza vs bad. Well Savoy is GREAT pizza. We ordered the Marghertia and Marinara. I prefer the Marghertia, while wife preferred the Marinara (she prefers more sour, and hence likely reason why Marinara was her choice). To give you an idea of how good it is, wife usually lets me take over the leftovers - she finished her own portion without my help (even though this was our second meal). Perhaps my only regret was not being able to try their Bianca (it looked really good and popular as many of the other customers were getting it). Would recommend this place! Overall Kel rating: /5 The good: Lots of seating (we were able to walk-in without reservation). The decent: Can be heard to find at night. We were unfamiliar with the area, as we came around evening time when it got darker. The ugly: Make sure you eat the pizza hot! (cools down quick)

After 2 weeks in Japan, we were craving something other than ramen, sushi, and katsu. Found this place near our hotel and let's just say, it greatly exceeded our expectations. We were able to be seated right away and the menu was very simple. We went right at lunch time and they had a special lunch set menu: iced tea, salad, and a margherita pizza. All for 1100 yen (about $7.50 USD at the time went). What a deal! Everything was so delicious and all seating is at the bar so we could see them making pizzas. Highly recommend if you are ever in the Roppongi area!

quite delicious pizzas. it was awesome to be able to see them made at the bar. that being said, the 40 minute wait for a group of 3 led me to expect something mind blowing, and while this pizza was good, it wasn't mind blowing. they're quite thin, which i like, but also they aren't that filling.

Did we go to a pizza place in Japan? Yes. The pizza is the cook fast and not super crunchy variety. Was it cozy and friendly? Yes. Was the beef pizza amazing? Yes. Was the tuna pizza curious? Um...yes. It wasn't bad (which was a surprise) and was the favorite of one person in our party. You'll wanna get a reservation because it might get busy (and we saw them turn away many people because this location is a bit tiny.

AMAZING pizza in Tokyo! Freshly made in front in a matter of 15 SECONDS! Fresh dough and ingredients I was blown awayyyy~ the pizza came out so fast i was so shocked. I barely had time to process anything. I also like their open bar concept so you can see how they're cooking it. I loved both pizzas but the tuna was so interesting, it was served with wasabi. It was pricey (¥3000 = 30 cad) but so worth. I am not a fan of wasabi but I wanted to gobble all of it, it matched the pizza so well. The tuna was also mildly cooked so it still had a raw centre. I love that thin center and chewy crust that Savoy did. I highly recommend coming here!

Life changing. Show up early and get the blue fin tuna pizza. Best pizza I've ever had, including spots in NYC and Chicago.

One of the best pizza in Tokyo, it's funny cuz it's better than most pizzas I've had in Italy. We only go there for lunch but you should go when it opens because this place packs up really fast. Their salad is one of our favorite as well. Can't wait to go back when we are back in Tokyo. It's worth the visit if you're close by...

Great pizza and nice staff. The only problem - from my personal experience - is that they have the habit of snapping photos of their non-Japanese patrons (of course, they ask before taking the photos ... two seconds before doing it) that they subsequently post in the social media. The "animals at the zoo" sensation somehow makes the experience less enjoyable.

Is it strange to say one of the best places in the world to get a Neopolitan style pizza is in Tokyo, Japan? If you don't make reservations, you will likely have a 30min+ wait since it was featured on a popular Netflix food/travel show (and the place is not big). But once inside, it's super cozy and you get a front row view of the chef's technique and attention to detail. Worth the wait!

Who knew that the best pizza I've ever had would be in Japan? I've been to Italy, NYC, etc, but this place really nailed it. After being featured on David Chang's Ugly Delicious, I knew I had to see what the hype is about. The space is quite small. Limited bar seats surrounding the chef and pizza oven. Expect to wait. We decided to show up around 5:30 and were the first to be seated when they opened at 6. The menu is also limited -- margherita, marinara and Bianca, the 'secret' menu item which is basically a white pizza consisting of cheese and alfredo sauce. I went for the margherita. Once you give the chef your order, he starts assembling your pizza together and pops it in the oven for 30-60 seconds. It comes out piping hot and steamy. The pizza tasted fresh, chewy and fluffy. So delicious! The pies are pretty small, so you wouldn't have trouble finishing it by yourself. It's also pretty light, so you feel satisfied, but not overly full. Seems like this place also has great lunch deals!

Savoy was recommended to me by a close friend and after seeing photos of this place from his past two Tokyo trips, I had to see what all the fuss was about. As you can see by my photos, this place is tiny, understated and conceptually perfect. I'd recommend arriving 30 minutes early (I was) and was able to snag not only the first couple bar seats but the first two pizzas too! We opted to try both: the marg and marinara. The result...two of the finest pizzas I'd ever eaten. Seriously, that good. Lives up to the hype and exceeds all expectations. The marinara was surprisingly the better of the two and I'll dream of it forever. Nike said it best, "just do it".

I first heard about this place from David Chang Ugly Delicious. This is the original location, they also have another one that is more fusion pizza. This place is super small, so make sure you come early or make reservations! It's super cozy inside and you get to the see the whole show how they make the pizza. They only offer two types of pizza, so you already know they are super skilled and good. We ordered the Marinara and Margherita pizza and both were delicious and super cheesy. The dough is more on the thin side, but super delicious and fluffy. I do not usually eat the crust, but I really enjoyed eating this one. Overall, experience and food was super memorable. Must try!

Thank you Ugly Delicious for introducing me to Savoy because basically after having pizza here, my opinion of pizza COMPLETELY CHANGED. This is coming from a person that has NEVER really liked pizza or ever craved for pizza or ever wanted to go out for pizza, but oh. my. god. How can two very plain types of pizza's be so good? I have NO idea, it was AMAZING. They are only two pizzas on the menu: margherita and marinara. Between the two of us, we ordered one of each and literally devoured it in less than 10 minutes. The staff even commented on how quickly we finished our food, haha. Honestly, we probably could've had another two more but refrained from doing so. It was hand kneaded and just piping hot out of the wood oven, perfectly seasoned and salted on each individual pizza. Not only does the same guy make the pizza, but he also closely monitors the temperature in the oven and adds fire wood every so often to make sure the pizza comes out perfectly each time! I came back to the US a changed person and have since been searching for a pizza place that is equally as good. No luck yet, but Savoy will forever be the one that captured my heart and remain as #1. If you're looking for the chef/guy that was highlighted in the Ugly Delicious episode, he works at the newer location. This location is the original location but not where he tends to work at. Still the best pizza I ever had though. Also quick tip - they don't take reservations, but if you come before they open, chances are - you should be able to make the first round of seating. We got here around ~5:45 PM on a Saturday night when they open at 6 PM and we were the first party to be seated.

The highly rated pizza place in Tokyo straight out of Netflix's Ugly Delicious. Being an avid David Chang fan, I just had to visit Savoy. As customary in Tokyo, be prepared to stand for approximately 30 minutes before having your meal. Once inside, there are two options for pizza. Marinara or Margherita. Legend has it, that if you order both and eat both, there exists a third white sauce pizza option. I wasn't able to handle both pizzas, so the mystery remains unsolved. The pizzas are made on the spot directly in front of the 8 customers that fit in the shop. The pizzas are cooked in an old Italian style pizza oven. I can definitely verify that these are some of the best Neapolitan style pizzas you will have. Believe me, I just went to Napoli last summer. Savoy delivers and adds another element to all of the greatness that is Tokyo. Pro tip, get the wine. It's lit! Arigato mi gato! ¡Provecho!

After watching ugly delicious, I knew I had to stop by here. They open at 11:30, I suggest you come a little before to beat the rush. We were the first group on a Tuesday around 11:20. We were seated in front of the oven and it was pretty hot. But we got to watch the chef make the pizza!! It's a small cozy spot that seats like 10? The lunch menu is iced tea, salad, and one pizza for 1,000 yen. Omg even the tea and salad was on point. I preferred the margarita pizza because that cheese doe. The pizza dough is so thin and light.

I'm convinced this is the best pizza in the world. I know what you're thinking, best pizza in the world from Japan? Trust me, it is. I've had pizza in Italy but there's something about Savoy that makes it so much better. Maybe the simple ingredients or the fact that there are only two pizzas on the menu, whatever it is, Savoy has absolutely perfected it. There will always be a line out the door and it's well worth the wait. The peach tea is so tasty and refreshing. This place is a must!

My husband and I, just like many other reviewers, had seen Savoy featured on an episode of Ugly Delicious (Netflix series, check it out if you haven't already!). The pizza shop is located next to housing units in a neighborhood. There is limited seating inside, a few seats right at the counter where the pizza is prepared. The menu is small and very reasonably priced (pizza is ~$14 USD). We ordered three of the pizzas on the menu: - Margherita - This comes with Mozzarella & Basil. - Pizza O - This comes with Mozzarella & Ozaki Beef. - Pizza Y - This comes with Pacific Bluefin Tuna. All of the pizzas were amazing, Ugly Delicious was right to hype this place. This was the best pizza I have ever had in my life. The cheese is melted to perfection, the pizza breading was light and flaky and the ingredients were all fresh. My favorite pizza that I would say is a must try is the Pizza Y. Tuna on pizza might sound weird, but it was so delicious, some of the pieces of tuna are lightly cooked and other pieces are raw. I went here TWICE during my stay in Japan because it was THAT good! You can tell that the staff really take pride in serving the best pizza to their customers. I really liked watching my entire order being made, I ate an entire pizza by myself (don't judge me!)... I was full, but not disgustingly full where I felt sick. This will be one of my top recommendations to anyone traveling to Japan :)

Who would have thought that the best pizza I've ever had would be in Japan!? This small 8 seat restaurant is the perfect example of simplicity and quality being best. They offer 2 types of pizza - with and without cheese. The crust is perfect. Just perfect. As there are only 8 seats I recommend going early and waiting in line outside just before they open.. you won't regret it. I'm still shocked that pizza was one of the highlights of my trip to Japan!

Pizza in japan eh? "Who would've thought?" I thought to myself. Thanks to my buddy who came here last year and said it was the greatest pizza he ever had, we came here to give it a try. Boy do I owe him big. The best way to explain the entire meal is that you can tell a lot of love was put into it. Being a small restaurant that it is, you can watch right in front of you as the lone chef spreads out each dough, lather on the tomato sauce, add the cheese on top, and shave garlic to flavor each pizza pie before he throws them into an old school brick oven. The thin crust pizza is flavored just right. And the sauce is out of this world fresh. I would suggest ordering 1 of each pizza pie. There are only 2 on the menu and they are both delicious for the price of about $15 each. Two pies fed my girlfriend and I just fine along with an appetizer. The cherry on top for me was being able to watch the enjoyment of the chef as he makes each pizza. You can clearly tell when a person is absolutely passionate about his craft. And this guy is the definition of passion. The restaurant only seats about 8 so make sure to make a reservation! They take card so don't worry!

This place definitely ranks up there in terms of the top five pizzas that I have eaten and I have consumed pizzas all over Europe including Italy, of course, the US and Asia. Its focus on only serving margherita and marinara pizzas but doing it impeccably well speaks to the level of focus on high-quality.

This was a pretty fabulous pizza for downtown Tokyo. I had a couple of friends who ranted and raved about this place and described a life altering pizza... life altering.. well no, but fantastic - definitely yes! This place is a tiny spot, maybe 13-15 seats altogether all crowded around a little wood fire oven. The pizza style is traditional Neapolitan and is very simple - great dough, fresh tomato sauce, mozzarella from Italy, basil and a small dash of salt over top (this is the secret - really helps to bring out the flavor!). It was a great pizza, and finishing off one doesn't leave you so bloated or heavy that you can't function - it's the right balance of flavors, ingredients and simplicity. They only create enough dough for the lunch rush and then that's it - when they run out they run out until dinner time. I love this little shop - great pizza and a nice adjustment from the foods of Tokyo :)

I'm basically a Ninja Turtle, I love pizza...and this pizza has ruined me. I won't get into the details, but the pizza here is seriously good. It made my trip to Italy, the home of pizza, depressing because I missed good pizza in Japan. It made my pizza in Chicago seem like a heaping pile of mess and in NYC like floppy day old dough. Tips: Have your hotel call and make you a reservation. I also enjoyed strolling around the neighborhood - cobbled, narrow streets, exotic cars... Also, don't be cheap, there is limited seating so you should spend enough to justify taking a seat for an hour.

Ugly Delicious was right, this place is amazing. They have 2 pizzas you can pick on the menu but 1 you can order that's not on the menu (the Bianca). Well worth it and I liked that one the best. Food 5/5: So good, So amazing. Weird that one of the best pizzas can be found in Tokyo isn't it? Price 5/5: It was about $14USD per pizza, they were a decent size but because it was so delicious, we kept ordering more. Ambiance 5/5: you get to watch the chef make the pizza! His hands are amazing! It's basically bar seating around the oven and the chef. Service 5/5: Since you're surrounding the chef, he can give you as much attention as you need. Water was always filled, food always came in a reasonable time. Tip: you can make reservations the day of and I definitely would recommend it since you could be waiting for a while. Seems like they can only seat maybe 12 people or so at a time.

Came here because of an episode I watched of Ugly Delicious where David Chang and Aziz Ansari ate at Savoy. Simply the best pizza I've had.. and the chef is a one man show. Very impressive! You can watch him kneading the dough from scratch, preparing homemade tomato sauce, and using fresh ingredients to top it off like grated garlic before he places it in an oven. I can see how passionate he is about his culinary. Really nice guy and just so grateful for everyone coming in to try his mouthwatering pizzas. Seating is really limited, only about 10 chairs. Waited about 15 minutes out in the rain, so worth it! I ordered the margherita pizza which was the first item on the menu and it was delicious! Great ingredients on a thin crust pizza. I ate it to myself and didn't feel gross so I ordered another. I got the Bianca which I found out through other yelpers is a secret menu item. Simply put, it was the bomb! If you're in Tokyo, Savoy is a must! Who would've thought the best pizza would be in Tokyo?

I gotta say, this is the best pizza I ever had in my life. Sure I never went to Italy and I live in LA where we are not necessarily known for a pizza culture but I had my share of napolitan style pizza. By far the pizza at savoy holds its own and tastes super fresh and it is simple, which I appreciate. You can really taste all the flavors and freshness in each pizza. So good that we ordered four pizzas between three adults and a kid and a plate of prosciutto and there were no leftovers. Still thinking about this place. The best part? The marinara pizza is vegan by default because it doesn't come with cheese and the pizza dough is just flour, water, salt. For people with allergies (my kid is allergic to dairy and eggs) this was a godsend because we didn't have to customize anything and it actually tasted so good with the garlic. Yum!!

A very small pizza bar that only sits about 10 people - at a bar! So, it's not best for very young children. They open at 11:00 but, it's best to line up outside about 20 minutes before. The closer it gets to 11:00, there will be a line. The lunch special is 1,000 yen for one pizza, iced tea, and a small salad. Not bad at all for a lunch special! The pizza is prepared in front of you, and once it's in the brick-oven, it's cooked and taken out in what seemed to be less than 5 minutes! It is then served to you right away - It's very tasty, juicy and just right! Japan really does know how to make pizza - and Savoy probably is one of the best in town.

Best pizza ever! I loved it so much. We got the Margherita and Marinara pizza and boy was it good. We especially liked the marinara pizza. I'd recommend to call for a reservation first. We went without one and the wait for us was roughly 20 minutes. Well worth the wait. The seats at the bar give you a front view of the pizza making process which is awesome. Every pizza is made to order with fresh ingredients and takes just minutes because the crust is so perfectly thin. The marinara pizza has freshly sliced garlic on it that's to die for. Have the pizza with a gin beer and you're on your way to a perfect meal there. We had meatballs as an appetizer too. They were quite good. The cheese tastes different than in the US, in a good way. Must try in Japan!

Savoy! I have traveled all over the world! USA, Greece, Italy, London, and more. But the pizza at Savoy is PURELY AMAZING! I have never had a better pizza in my life! The people that work there are so nice and friendly which only make for a better overall experience! In the last 3 years traveling to Tokyo I have been here 14 times! Amazing! I wish they opened one in Los Angeles! Arigato Savoy! BEST PIZZA IN THE WORLD!

Exquisite. A buddy of mine recommended this spot and was not flippant about it. "Dude, it's the best pizza I've ever had. Have your sushi, your ramen; a standard Tokyo visit, but get to Savoy!" The crust is remarkable. Refined, limited and specific ingredients. Don't expect customizing with toppings. Margherita and marinara. It's what they got and they got it good. A few appetizers exist, too. My pizza came out of the oven so quick, I'm glad I didn't fill up on other things, (but those olives were calling my name!). Make the trip out to Roppongi for this meal. I wanted another pie, but wisely held off because I remained tummy-comfortable. Seating is limited and the space is cozy. There's classic Italian, Sinatra et al, joining the baking in the atmosphere. Enjoy!

Great place if you walk in without reservation. Food: it's a pizza place! Pizza is very tasty but for the price its a bit small compared to other good pizza places. The crust can sometimes come a bit burnt because of the wood burning too hot and pizzaman not keeping a good eye. Service: everyone is friendly and approachable. They speak english which is great! Decor: small space so make a reservation. Maybe 9 people tops. Summary: dont make reservations to be the first ones there as the smoke from the oven will hurt your eyes. Cool spot but be warned you have to wait outside to get in because its so small.

The short 5 minute walk from my apartment is dangerous for me. I have been many times over my short 4 months here. My only complaint is that being an English speaker, I can't read the menu and only know how to order one type of pizza. I would be happy eating that one type of pizza for the rest of my life though. I kid you not it's THAT good. The restaurant is very intimate and is located on a hidden corner. The limited seating and lack of personal space makes the experience very Japanese. I have and will continue to take all of my visitors to Savoy.

We did not have reservations and arrived at noon on a Saturday. They were kind enough to fit us in for 30 minutes which was plenty of time to eat two pizzas. We ordered the Margarita and Bianca(not on the menu) pizza's. I come from Los Angeles and have traveled to New York and various other "foodie" cities and I did not think I would have the best pizza of my life in Tokyo. The Bianca pizza that we ordered(it is not on the menu but I recommend you order it) was hands down the best pizza I have ever had. If you are traveling to Japan for your vacation, I highly recommend fitting this place into your itinerary, you will not be disappointed and may have the best pizza of your life.

In the same way as the Japanese have perfected whiskey, they are seemingly attempting the same thing with pizza. Savoy is leading the charge with amazing dough and a 500 degree wood-burning pizza oven. In a 13 seat pizza shop, you get to watch a lump of dough as it is floured and stretched and shaped, then sauce imported from Italy, fresh basil, garlic and shredded mozzarella cheese are added before it is slide into the pizza oven. Lunch is a bargain at ¥1,000 for a small salad, a pizza and peach ice tea. The pizza is amazing with one of the best crusts I have ever tasted. So where does the name Savoy come from? There are two theories. First, named after the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem since the playlist here is entirely jazz. Second, named after Margherita of Savoy, Queen Consort of the King of Italy, and the mother of the Prince of Naples. According to legend, the Margherita pizza, whose red tomatoes, green basil, and white cheese represent the Italian flag, was named after her. But who really cares where the name comes from when the pizza is this good.

This might be the most perfect pizza you'll ever have. The crust has just the right amount of crunch and chewiness with a bit of salt. The marinara is so simple - sauce and garlic - but has the perfect combo of salty and sweet. And the margarita is just amazing. After you've torn through those, ask the chef for a pizza Bianca. He'll pull some other cheese from the back kitchen (where the salads and other items are made) and make the best cheese pizza ever. There isn't much seating so best to make a reservation in advance if you can.

Like others, I saw this on "Ugly Delicious" and wanted to try it out. We came for dinner one night and were lucky to score a table without a reservation. In order to get the "white pizza" which is off the menu, you have to order and finish both pizzas from the menu first. The pizzas were delicious, the flavor was simplistic but refined, the dough had that chewy quality to it that I love. We ate all 3 pizzas. :-) We wanted to order dessert but was then told we were out of time so just make sure you are aware you only have an hour to eat so eat up and enjoy!

Savory did not disappoint. I know you probably aren't coming to Japan for pizza, but this is some of the best pizza I've ever had. There's only two options: A traditional margarita pizza and a marinara. We ordered both pizzas and were equally impressed with both. Try to come early if you can as it's a very popular spot and also pretty small inside.

It's just as excellent as everyone says. Obviously the pizza is amazing but so are the other small dishes. The green salad is just lettuce with a light dressing, but so flavorful! They only offer 2 pizzas, both perfectly crafted: a margarita, and a marinara (tomato sauce, garlic, no cheese). We had 4 pizzas between 3 of us - we couldn't stop eating because they were so tasty! The crust really is perfect. Menus are in English & Japanese. There is only 1 table and otherwise bar seats around the oven. Best to make a reservation if you can, though we got very lucky and they squeezed us in without one. They serve beer & wine, and they take credit cards. The staff is incredibly nice.

Best pizza I've had! They only have 2 pizzas on the menu - margherita and marinara - both are excellent. I like the marinara flavours in particular (chef's fav). Also ordered bianca (off the menu) and like the other reviews have mentioned, it's all cheese and right level of salty.

This is the best pizza in the world. We have pizza everywhere and nothing compares. The location is small and Cousy. The service out of this world, warm and fun. Can't wait to go back to Tokyo and have it again...
