My Story

Built by a Pizza Lover,
for Pizza Lovers

I didn't build The Pizza Review to make money. I built it because I'm obsessed with pizza — and I wanted a better way to remember, rate, and compare every slice I've ever had.

After years of trying to keep mental notes of which places had the best crust, the crispiest cheese, or the most flavorful sauce, I realized there was no app that took pizza rating seriously. So I built one myself.

The Pizza Review uses a weighted 5-category scoring system across 10 pizza styles — because a New York slice and a Detroit deep dish shouldn't be judged the same way. Every score means something here.

"Pizza should be taken seriously. Judged, ranked, and argued about, otherwise what's the point!"

— Brian O'Rourke, Creator of The Pizza Review
🎯

The scoring guide encourages real, thoughtful reviews — not inflated 10/10s on every slice. We built the UX to promote genuine critique.

How It Works

The TPR Scoring Guide

Every pizza is rated on a 100-point scale. Here's what the scores actually mean.

0–50
💀 The Incident
We don't talk about what happened here. This pizza hurt you. File this one away as a cautionary tale and warn your friends.
51–60
🤷 Technically Pizza
It meets the legal definition. There's dough, there's sauce, there's cheese. But there's no soul. A participation trophy in pie form.
61–70
😑 The Reliable Mediocre
Not bad. Not memorable. This is the pizza you order when you can't agree on anything else. It showed up on time, it was warm, and it asked nothing of you emotionally.
71–80
👌 Now We're Talking
Good crust, solid sauce, cheese that actually behaved itself. You'd come back. You might even recommend it to someone you mildly like.
81–90
🔥 A Genuine Contender
This is a destination pizza. You'd drive for this. You told at least one person about it unprompted. Don't give this score lightly.
91–95
⭐ Reserved for the Extraordinary
This pizza has no meaningful flaws. Every element was intentional. You may have sat in silence for a moment after the first bite. These scores should be uncommon.
96–100
🦄 The Unicorn
This pizza fundamentally changed you. Professional critics spend careers searching for this. If you're here, you've either discovered something transcendent — or you skipped lunch.
