INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Saturday is National Pizza Day, according to a number of online holiday calendars.
Making a pizza at home with the family is always a fun option, but going out to eat can be a treat, too.
Here is a look, thanks to the Yelp! app, of the top pizza picks from Indianapolis reviewers.
King Dough: The Indianapolis location is at 452 N. Highland Ave., but it also has a pizzeria in Bloomington. Adam and Alicia Sweet said on their website they began it all from a food truck.
Bazbeaux Pizza: The one ranked on Yelp! is at 333 Massachusetts Ave. Bazbeaux has locations in downtown Indianapolis, Broad Ripple and Carmel. The original Bazbeaux opened in Broad Ripple on May 12, 1986.

Jockamo Upper Crust Pizza: Reviewers gave high marks to the one in Irvington, but there are also locations in Lawrence and Greenwood. Jockamo, which has a logo featuring a monkey, started Oct. 22, 2007. Voters on the Nextdoor social media site in 2019 ranked Jockamo No. 2 in the nation.
WB Pizza: It’s at Allisonville Road and East 62th Street. One reviewer wrote, “This place is wonderful. It’s a cozy little place ran by very friendly, casual people. They have delicious pizza and desserts and it’s all super fresh and housemade!”
