Il Panificio Pizzeria - Sarasota

Best pizza I've found in Florida for thin crust, semi-new York Pizza

The go to pizza place for our family since 2000 when not making our own. Shout out to Jose as he keeps it ‘thin for the win’’ at the mainstreet location. Fresh whole pie is the way to go or you can try by the slice to explore combinations and they can be a touch crispier. This is a thin crispy crust pizza with a hint of aged cheese flavor from the slight sourness of the dough. Not the place if you like thick crust, Chicago or grease ‘down the elbow’ pizza.

Great pizza. A new building is going up in their current location I hope they relocate somewhere close by; I'd be a shame if they shut down.

Every Sunday I head out on the boat and order the Sicilian pizza half and half. It’s the closest thing to ny pizza I’ve found so far. Must try. Won’t disappoint.

I find it hard to find good pizza in Sarasota, but that's great. The crust is thin and not gay. It comes with just the right amount of cheese and sauce (good technical, you can never have too much cheese) and many Wharves toppings you choose. The disc selection is also very, very good.
