Pizzeria Felicita
At Pizzeria Felicita, the pizzas have a thick rim and elastic body (similar to the Neapolitan style), an anatomy that is essential for containing their dense toppings. But before jumping into the pizza, begin with fritti (fried starters) and a glass of delicious in-house wine. The restaurant also offers a great variety of pasta and Italian-style salads.
Address: 1, Mitskevycha street, Lviv

Celentano Ristorante on Rynok Square
With its Ukraine-sourced (when possible) ingredients, friendly service, and rapid turnover, the original upscale branch of Celentano fast-food franchise network, remains, for our money, the best pizza joint in Lviv. Both indoor and outdoor seating overlooks the bustling Lviv Rynok Square. Here you can sate a craving for genuine, Neapolitan-style pizza, with a flavorful slow-rise sourdough crust and a variety of traditional and innovative toppings. Purists will prefer either the tomato, garlic and oregano or the tomato, mozzarella and basil, in season. Other menu choices and daily specials include a variety of seasonal vegetable and cured meat-laden pizzas. Side salads and the restaurant’s unusual lemonade are highly recommended, being thoughtful additions to the carb-heavy pizza. Wine and beer are also available. The other branches of Celentano Pizza are fine, but haven’t reached the perfection of this particular branch.
Address, 1, Galytska street, Lviv (just on the corner with Rynok Square).
