Boise’s pizza scene is a reflection of the city’s vibrant growth, westward spirit, and love for mixing the classic with the modern.
From artisanal wood-fired ovens to classic slice shops and local family gems, Boise’s five best pizzerias in 2025 capture all that’s great about Idaho’s capital.
1. The Wylder
Downtown’s destination for wood-fired, thick-crust “pan-style” pies.
The Wylder’s dough ferments for 48 hours, generating a crisp yet airy base. Toppings lean on local Idaho ingredients—from prosciutto and hot honey to farm-fresh veggies and artisan cheeses.
“The Honey Badger” (sausage, spicy honey, goat cheese) and the “Sweet Corn & Ricotta” are standouts.
The chic, rustic dining room and creative drinks round out the experience.
2. Guido’s Original New York Style Pizzeria
The real deal for NY-style pizza west of the Mississippi, Guido’s is all about gigantic, foldable slices, that perfect cheese-to-sauce ratio, and chewy crusts.
The pepperoni, white pie, and loaded “Special” are customer favorites.
Fast service, classic city-pizza vibe, and fair prices make this a hero for lunch, carryout, or feeding a hungry crowd.
3. Flying Pie Pizzaria
A quirky Boise institution since 1978, Flying Pie is renowned for its massive, loaded specialty pies (try the “Combo Supreme” or “Hot Friggin’ Wing Pizza”), offbeat toppings, and wild monthly specials.
They also host a “super-topping challenge” for intrepid eaters.
A family-friendly funhouse, Flying Pie is pure Boise spirit—creative, big-hearted, and a beloved piece of local food culture.
4. Tony’s Pizzeria Teatro
For elegant, artisan Neapolitan pizzas, Tony’s combines charred, airy crusts, imported Italian tomatoes, house-pulled mozzarella, and a refined, sleek setting attached to the Boise Contemporary Theater.
Menu highlights include the “Funghi” (mushrooms, truffle oil) and “Diavola” (spicy salami, olives). Great for pre-show meals or a downtown date.
5. Spitfire Craft Pizza & Pints
A local neighborhood hit, Spitfire serves up creative, stone-baked pies with both classic and offbeat toppings (“Local Pig” features Idaho-raised pork and caramelized onions).
Their rotating Idaho craft beer menu, huge salads, and reputation for friendly, fast service make this a crowd-pleaser in a chill, casual setting.
