The other Florida pizzeria, ‘O Munaciello, was ranked at No. 55.

O’ Munaciello is originally from Florence, Italy, but now has locations all over the world, including one in the MiMo District and on Coral Way in Miami.

The restaurant brands its pizza as having a true “authentic Neapolitan taste,” with “dough that rises 48 hours, the best Italian products, and wood-fired oven.”
