Our Top 5: the best pizzas in Toulouse

Are you more Margherita, or Calzone? Neapolitan or Roman? On site or to take away? When it comes to pizza, there is something for everyone in Toulouse, but the hardest part is to decide! Here is a small selection of the best pizzas in the pink city, but beware the pizz'addict, I will stop you right away, do not read these few lines on an empty stomach, you could risk a tomato sauce massacre!

1. The Stella from Alexis: our favorite!

Open since 2013 in the heart of the Saint-Cyprien district, Alexis' pizzeria is no longer to be presented to locals. Quality ingredients, well-sharpened know-how, and a warm welcome; these are the 3 pillars of the establishment. As in Naples (Mecca of Alexis, the owner), they serve thin- crust pizzas, seared at very high temperatures. “This is what makes the difference” he confides to us.
We recommend the Stella, specialty of the house: a star-shaped pizza, each branch of which forms a small turnover filled with a different filling, just to fill your taste buds!
