Fun, lighthearted and charmingly unpretentious, Modesto’s has consistently good food—we love the deliciously thin, crispy and light pizzas. House specialties include the linguine, the 20-inch pizza and, of course, their signature tiramisu—with mascarpone cheese, espresso, savoiardi fingers and coffee liqueur. Yum.

It's more than just dough and cheese at these gourmet pizza joints: expect lovingly hand-crafted pizzas with an imaginative array of toppings and perfectly blistered crust. Check out our top 10 pizza places.
