Washington: MOTO Pizza

In Seattle, MOTO Pizza has quickly shot to the top of the city’s pizza rankings with its unorthodox yet irresistibly delicious creations. Since opening in 2021 in West Seattle, this spot drew such long lines for its inventive, thick-crust pizzas that it has already expanded to new locations in nearby neighborhoods. MOTO specializes in hearty Detroit-style rectangular pies made from a 100-year-old sourdough starter, often loaded with unconventional, Filipino-inspired toppings — imagine a slice topped with pork belly, Dungeness crab, or even a drizzle of banana ketchup. Their most famous concoction is the Clam Chowdah pizza, a playful take on New England clam chowder that marries clams, smoked bacon, Parmesan, chives, and a creamy “chowdah” sauce on a chewy pan crust. It’s the kind of boundary-pushing pizzeria that has won over Washingtonians (traditionalists included) and has them lining up for a taste.
