Determining the best pizza joint in the world. One slice at a time.

His Criteria

What makes a great pizza so great? How does Jon decide what is the best of the best? Let’s break down some of the major factors.

The Crust

Often overlooked, the crust is what pushes a good slice to a great slice. A great crust is well seasoned, and enjoyable to eat on its own.

The quality of the sauce is paramount. Ingredient quality across the board is important, but the stakes are even higher here.

This is the first step in any given review. Before the first bite is taken, the slice should be picked up and assessed for a quality flop.

The “One Bite” Philosophy

Here at Jon’s Za review, we believe taking one really big bite is a vital part of the grading process. More than that, it’s a way of life. A Big Bite helps the reviewer test how all the flavors of the pizza blend together, providing them with a holistic view of the flavor profile.
