13 are the countries represented in 50 Top Pizza Asia – Pacific 2026: Australia, China, South Korea, the Philippines, Japan, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. Japan is the most represented country with 11 pizzerias, followed by Australia with 9, and China with 6. The most represented city is Tokyo with 7 pizzerias, followed by Hong Kong/Melbourne with 4 pizzerias each, and the trio Bangkok/Singapore/Sydney with 3 pizzerias each.

The Asia-Pacific region is becoming increasingly attractive to pizza lovers – say the guide’s three curators Barbara Guerra, Luciano Pignataro, and Albert Sapere -. Japan remains the benchmark in terms of both quality and quantity: Australia has made significant progress in recent years; in terms of emerging quality, we can definitely pinpoint Seoul, South Korea; over the past two years, we’ve been paying close attention to a new style of pizza, the Neapolitan Tokyo Style, which has expanded beyond Japan and is gaining popularity across other continents. We’ve also observed that cocktails are becoming a more popular choice to pair with pizza in place of wine or beer, particularly among younger generations”.

The next 50 Top Pizza event is scheduled for April 14th, live from Rio de Janeiro, to discover the best pizzerias in Latin America for the year 2026.
