Sacramento has over 200 different pizza joints, so no matter what neighborhood you're in, what kind of crust you prefer or how spicy you like your tomato sauce, there's bound to be several good options available to you. If you're feeling adventurous, go beyond the standard pepperoni offerings and try one of the more creative signature dishes at these highly recommended joints.
Why bother paying for dinner and dessert, when you can get both in one dish? Hot Italian serves up The Murino pizza with a chewy crust, sliced pears, gorgonzola and drizzled honey for a salty, sweet, creamy treat that costs $13. Their menu also includes 16 other pizzas along with calzones, paninis, salads and a nice wine, beer and cocktail list.
If your mouth waters at the thought of a crust loaded with caramelized onions, yellow potato slices, salty pancetta, arugula leaves and goat cheese, you should pay a visit to OneSpeed and ask for Rick's pizza. You also have nine other tasty pizzas to choose from for $12 to $15, as well as fish, pasta, burgers and dessert.
Chicago Fire shows up on many 'Best of Sacramento' lists, and for good reason. You can feed two or three people for $12 to $20 in a casual yet classy diner with a full bar. Authentic Chicago-style crusts are available in deep dish, stuffed, or thin crust variations. Try the Canadian Bacon & Pineapple pizza or the Chicago Fire Combo with Italian sausage, pepperoni, onion, green pepper and mushroom.
