What varieties of pizza can you find in Baton Rouge?

Correction: Motza’s Pizza Pub does not serve deep-dish pizza. 225 regrets the error.

Plenty of places in Baton Rouge serve pizza inspired by New York or Italy.

But here’s where you can try …

New Haven-inspired

at City Slice

Oblong-shaped thin crusts topped with a lighter portion of melting cheeses

Detroit-style

at Reginelli’s

Thick, rectangular-shaped pizza with crispy edges. It’s topped with brick cheese and then layered with tomato sauce and other toppings

Chicago-inspired

at Rotolo’s Craft + Crust

Deep-dish pizza rich with cheese and chunky tomato sauce

French-style flambees

at Pizza Byronz

The super-thin cousin of pizza

Supersized pizza

at Fat Boy’s Pizza

30-inch pies and 16-inch slices so big they’ll barely fit through your car door (for reference, a whole New York-style pie is usually only 18 inches!)
