It's National Pizza Day ... Find the Best Pizza in Southeastern Wisconsin Here

MILWAUKEE -- The readers of ON Milwaukee have spoken, and have named the top pizza place in Milwaukee for 2016. That honor goes to Pizza Man.

As quoted by ON Milwaukee:

"For several years, the domain of Milwaukee's best pizza was dominated by the East Side staple Zaffiro's. Last year, however, found the voters rebelling against their regular choice, mixing it up with a surprise Transfer Pizza upset. And now 2016 brings us another new winner: Pizza Man, which narrowly beat out Zaffiro's for the crown."

Runners-Up include:

• Zaffiro's
• Transfer Cafe
• Balistreri's
• Calderone Club

Here are the top 20 pizza places in the southeastern Wisconsin area as ranked by Yelp! users:
