PHILADELPHIA — Who doesn't love pizza? It's bready, cheesey, saucey, and perfect with all kinds of toppings. And according to a website that's all about pizza, Philadelphia has one of the world's best pizzerias.

50TopPizza, an Italian website that specializes in ranking pizza across the globe, recently crowned the 50 best pizzerias in the United States.

In the top 25 is a popular Philadelphia spot, with two locations.

Pizzeria Vetri was listed at No. 21 in the ranks.

Here's what the website has to say about Vetri:

This is a small, very welcoming locale in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. It is an absolute landmark for lovers of a good-quality pizza in this city. It has a relaxed atmosphere, a post-industrial décor, and it is truly a pleasant experience. It was founded in 1998 by Chef Marc Vetri with Jeff Benjamin. The Vetri family uses a wood-fired oven and good-quality products with super-fresh, daily primary ingredients. The menu changes based on the season. In warm weather, the tables on the sidewalk allow patrons to observe the passersby and the background of the Philadelphia skyline.

The top five pizzerias featured on the list are Tony's Pizza Napoletana in San Francisco; Una Pizza Napoletana in Atlantic Heights; Spaca Napoli Pizzeria in Chicago; Ribalta NYC in New York City; and Razza Pizza Artigianle in Jersey City.

The neighboring state of New Jersey had two spots on the top five list: Una Pizza Napoletana in Atlantic Heights and Razza Pizza Artigianle in Jersey City.
