Whether you are dining at a fancy Italian bistro or simply grabbing a slice from the pizzeria down the street, everyone loves a good slice of pizza. Hawaii isn’t necessarily known for their delicious Italian food, but luckily for us, there are still a few excellent pizzerias across the islands to satisfy that ever-present pizza craving. So, without further ado, here is your ultimate Hawaii pizza bucket list, complete with 15 mouthwatering pizzerias across the four main islands sure to satisfy your cravings. Let’s dig in:
This pizzeria describes itself as serving up "Kauai-style pizza with a fresh, local flair." And while we aren’t quite sure what Kauai-style pizza is, it sounds pretty delicious.
Though this shop features a variety of entrees, their pizza is marvelous, with several unique options — like chili shrimp pizza. They also have a location in Waimea, if you’re in the area.
This little pizzeria located next to the airport is known for their garlic cheesy balls, a perfect appetizer to enjoy while waiting for your pizza. Also cool is the fact that any pizza can be ordered as a sub sandwich. Be warned though — they can get incredibly busy, so be sure to call in that order way in advance.
Housed in a once-abandoned Lahaina plantation home, laid-back pizzeria serves up mouthwatering speciality and build-your-own thin-crust pies, plus calzones and beers.
This cozy Italian restaurant serves up authentic neapolitan-style pizza that’s cooked in an woodfire oven. Outside, you will also find a walkup window with outdoor seating reminiscent of a New York pizza.
This roadside pizza truck located on Oahu’s north shore near Shark’s Cove might not look like much, but the pizzas you’ll find here are absolutely divine.
Because this little shop makes their own meats, the prices can be a little steep. However, it’s totally worth the price tag when you sink your teeth into that first delicious bite. Enjoy your meal on their covered courtyard for an enchanting experience.
Boston’s Pizza, found in Kaimuki and Hawaii Kai on the island of Oahu, has all the markings of your favorite hole in the wall pizza joint, and trust us, the pizza pies do not disappoint. With the atmosphere of a classic east coast pizza joint and a local twist, Boston’s does pizza, by the pie and by the slice, just the way we like it - delicious, cheap, and all around top notch.
Hawaii Kai: 515 Pepeekeo St A, Honolulu, HI 96825 Kaimuki: 3506 Waialae Ave, Honolulu, HI 96816
This Italian bistro offers a changing menu of brick-oven pizzas, housemade pastas, and small plates. Utilizing fresh, local ingredients and creative presentation, you’ll love the pies at Sale Pepe.
This hole-in-the-wall establishment serves up fresh, made to order pizza, calzones, lasagna, and pasta. No matter what you order, we bet it will be mouthwatering.
Don’t judge a book by its cover at this Kauai pizza joint. This Neapolitan pizza food truck is a favorite among locals, and their mushroom pizza is truly to-die-for.
