In a landmark moment for Indian gastronomy, Leo’s Pizzeria, a beloved neighbourhood pizza kitchen in New Delhi, has been ranked #99 in the world by The Best Pizza – Milan 2025 — an internationally respected list that celebrates excellence in global pizza craftsmanship.
Known for its minimalist menu, honest ingredients, and unwavering commitment to quality, Leo’s has earned a cult following both in India and now across borders. The Milan-based awards are considered a gold standard in the pizza world, and this inclusion places Leo’s among a league of world-renowned pizzerias celebrated for tradition, technique, and flavour.
What sets Leo’s apart is its focus on doing the simple things right. Each pizza begins with a slow-fermented 48-hour dough, layered with thoughtfully sourced ingredients like imported Italian tomatoes and fresh mozzarella, and baked to perfection. The result is a pizza that is light, balanced, and deeply satisfying — no frills, just flavour.
“We never set out chasing awards — just the pursuit of honest, well-made pizza. To be recognised on a global stage, among names we’ve long admired, is incredibly humbling. This isn’t just a win for Leo’s — it’s for everyone who believes that world-class food can come from anywhere, as long as it’s made with heart and integrity.” said Amol Kumar, Head Pizzaiolo and Founder, Leo’s Pizzeria.
Leo’s Pizzeria has long been a go-to destination for those seeking comfort food made well. With this international milestone, the pizzeria reaffirms its place on the global culinary map — a proud reminder that excellence and authenticity can shine from any corner of the world.
