Majstor i Margarita
Possibly the best pizzeria in Serbia. At least that’s what the compilers of the Top 50 pizzerias in Europe (outside of Italy) rating think — «Majstor i Margarita» has made it onto the list for the second year in a row. In 2022, a second location opened in Belgrade on King Alexander Boulevard. You’ll have to choose carefully — the menu offers several dozen pizzas. There are both familiar names and original recipes — for example, the «Molto» with zucchini cream, mozzarella, salsiccia (Italian sausage) from Mesara Morava, bacon, and spices, as well as a pizza collaboration with the Zagreb restaurant Franko’s — «Calabrian Red» — featuring mozzarella, marinated onions, nduja, salsiccia, chili, and basil.

Crust
A very beautiful pizzeria in the Palilula market area. The establishment features an open kitchen with a two-ton brick wood-fired oven (you can sit at the counter and watch the pizzaiolo at work). The menu is small, with half of it consisting of signature pizzas — for example, there’s an option with mascarpone, mozzarella, guanciale, and wild figs. One of Crust’s specialties is dessert pizzas, such as with mascarpone, Nutella, roasted pistachios, and chocolate.

Ciao…Andiamo
A new establishment with authentic Neapolitan pizza in the heart of Dorćol. The venue boasts a striking interior with vibrant patterns on the walls and subdued lighting in the evenings. Special attention is paid to the quality of the pizza, particularly the dough, which undergoes a 72-hour fermentation process. Be sure to try the «Antica Romana» pizza — topped with mozzarella, pecorino romano, parmesan, egg yolk emulsion, and crispy guanciale. In addition to pizza, the menu offers a good selection of breakfast options, so it’s worth stopping by in the morning as well.

Figo
The «Figo» pizzeria is located in one of the corners at the Palilula Market. The pizzas here are cooked in a real wood-fired oven, with only nine varieties available. We recommend trying the signature «Srbizza» — with urnebes, mozzarella, red onion, rosemary, and ćevapi. While waiting for your pizza, order one of the signature cocktails.
