Pizza is a $20 billion industry in the U.S. and a global favorite. Gourmet pizzas came from California, topped with goat cheese, lamb sausage, smoked salmon, barbecue chicken, even BLT, with B.J.’s pizzeria purveying designer pies.

Sometimes, you just want an old-fashioned pie, garlicky crust, sizzling cheese and a meatball, mushroom or pepperoni. No veggie, no Hawaiian, definitely no caviar. An anchovy on the side, for sure. New York style pizza, you’ll never forgetaboutit. Here’s some of the best pizza in Tampa, Florida:
