With over 600 pizzerias, Buffalo can be considered one of the best pizza cities in America. Unlike the most popular styles of pizza in the United States, Buffalo-style pizza can usually only be found in Buffalo itself, making it as elusive as it is delicious.

This western New York pie is characterized by its sweet and spicy sauce, layers of melted cheese, and, most importantly, plenty of pepperoni. Buffalo pie is often described as a hybrid of Chicago pizza and New York pizza with a thin crust, making it the best of both worlds of dough, according to yahoo.com.

To showcase the best of Buffalo when it comes to pies, experts have prepared a list. This selection includes places where pizza-loving tourists go and centers where locals grab a slice on the go. Use this list on your next tantalizing escapade to The Nickel City, and you can stray from the style of New York and Chicago.

Daddio's Pizza

Daddio's Pizza has everything that makes it the best one-stop shop for Buffalo locals to grab a slice, an ice cold beer, and hot fresh wings. The restaurant offers creamy, savory bleu cheese to accompany the pizza and wings, which keeps visitors coming back for more. If the pizza, wings, and sauce weren't enough, Daddio's has a fun, casual atmosphere and a bar, making it a place where residents can meet up with friends at a low price for a quality meal.

Daddio's specializes in a traditional Buffalo-style large pepperoni pie, topped with flaky dough and exactly 1 pound of fresh mozzarella, covering almost the entire pizza. For no extra cost, you can get yours with a specialty crust - garlic, sesame, honey, or any combination of the three. Daddio's restaurant is open daily until late in the evening, where you can enjoy authentic Buffalo appetizers and nightlife.

Lovejoy Pizza

This pizzeria has been specializing in serving Buffalo locals since the 90s. The authentic slice is made right in Lovejoy, where just the right amount of cheese and a heap of juicy pepperoni make it one of the best in town. The restaurant also specializes in the best stuffed hot peppers, as well as tacos, fajitas, and chicken fingers of your choice.

Enhance your pizza from Lovejoy's with free crust toppings - including garlic, onion, poppy seed, hot pepper and cajun - and a variety of toppings for an unbeatable decorated pie. For an authentic Buffalo experience, get the Lovejoy's chicken finger pie and be sure to top it with the city's sauce.

Macy's Place Pizzeria

This pizzeria brings non-traditional slices to different neighborhoods of the city, including Cheektowaga and Kenmore. Choose from over 50 varieties of pizza or combine toppings to create your own Macy's masterpiece.

A simple slice of cheese and pepperoni is more than impressive. But you'll be hard pressed not to snag one of its signature pies in the "fun" section of the menu. The colossal '90s-style pizza called "Nick at Nite" includes BBQ dinosaur chicken nuggets, Totino's pizza buns, and fries-that's right, all on top of an expertly crafted Buffalo-style pizza. Try the smoked gouda poppy seed and cheese pie or the crab rangoon topped pizza. The eatery also offers breakfast and dessert pies, including flavors such as sausage sauce and apple pie. Both Macy's Place locations are open daily for lunch and dinner.

Olisi's New York style

Olisi's in Tonawanda boasts one of the best pizzas in New York City outside of the Big Apple. This pizza has a thin, chewy crust and fresh toppings. Although these slices come with a high price tag, as they do in New York, it's worth it to indulge in one of the most famous styles of pizza around the world.

Try Olisi's Bruschetta pie, made with dark red tomatoes and aromatic herbs, for a fresh vegetarian pizza. If you're a meat lover, try the Stinger: a steak and chicken finger pie for a savory, meaty flavor paired with cool blue cheese. Olisi's is open daily for lunch and dinner.

Picasso pizza

Picasso's pies are incredibly large, but that's not the only reason why Buffalo pizza has become popular. The dough is flaky, the toppings are plentiful, and the signature pies come in an exciting variety of styles. Picasso's offers party combos at a great price.

Get The Kitchen Sink pie for a flavorful mix of hot and fresh toppings. Picasso's makes Hawaiian pizza the right way, with crispy bacon, juicy ham, and sweet, juicy pineapple chunks. Picasso's restaurants are open daily for lunch and dinner.
