April 8, 2026
What's the best pizza in Valrico?
The short answer: Valrico has solid pizza options, but your pick depends on what style you're craving. New York-style, Neapolitan, deep dish, and chain — it's all here within a 10-minute drive.
Here are the spots Valrico residents keep coming back to.
1. Gino's Italian Restaurant
Gino's has been a Valrico staple for years. It's a sit-down Italian restaurant with a full menu, but the pizza is what keeps families coming back. Their white pizza and meat lover's are standouts.
Best for: Family dinner, full Italian menu with pizza Location: SR-60, Valrico
2. Westshore Pizza — Bloomingdale
The Bloomingdale location of Westshore Pizza is convenient and consistent. Their Philly cheesesteak pizza is a local guilty pleasure. Good lunch deals and they deliver.
Best for: Delivery, specialty pizzas, lunch combos Location: Bloomingdale Ave
3. Jets Pizza
Jets brought Detroit-style deep dish to Valrico and people love it. The 8-corner pizza with the caramelized cheese edge is addictive. Not thin crust — this is thick, square, and crispy on the bottom.
Best for: Detroit-style deep dish, something different from NY-style Location: SR-60
4. Mazzaro's (Worth the Drive to St. Pete)
Okay, this one's technically in St. Pete — about 35 minutes from Valrico. But if you're a serious pizza person, Mazzaro's Italian Market is a Tampa Bay bucket list item. Wood-fired, Neapolitan-style, and absolutely worth the drive.
Best for: Special occasion, best-in-Tampa-Bay pizza Location: St. Petersburg (22nd Ave N)
5. Papa's NY Pizzeria — Brandon
Right over in Brandon on Causeway Blvd, Papa's serves oversized NY-style slices. It's a popular spot for a quick slice after shopping at the Westfield Brandon mall area.
Best for: Quick slices, feeding a crowd Location: Causeway Blvd, Brandon
6. Napoli's Italian Restaurant
Another Brandon-adjacent option on Lithia Pinecrest, Napoli's does solid traditional Italian-American pizza. Their calzones are enormous and their garlic knots are legit.
Best for: Calzones, garlic knots, classic Italian-American Location: Lithia Pinecrest Rd
