Yelp says the list is based on reviews and comments by readers.
The highest-ranked New York pizzeria on the list is on Long Island: Saverio’s Authentic Pizza Napoletana in Massapequa, which checks in at No. 6.
The eatery, which has been in business since 1967, says on its website that it uses buffalo-milk mozzarella and San Marzano tomatoes imported from Naples as well as our "fresh, home-made mozzarella.
"All pizzas are drizzled with 100-percent Italian extra-virgin olive oil and then baked to perfection at 850 degrees in a Mario Acunto wood-fired brick oven from Naples. The finished product is a pizza whose taste will bring you back to Italy."
Three pizzerias in the Hudson Valley made the Top 100, with two in Dutchess County and one in Westchester.
