Just 10 years ago, Guangzhou only had a few pizza restaurants. Today, you can choose between fine Italian dining, home-style Italian, and small pizza parlors along with numerous Pizza Huts and similar Asian chains. If that's not enough, many of the Western cafs serve pizza, with the better ones tasting reasonably good. Below are some of Guangzhou's top pizza destinations.

Danny's Italian American Restaurant was opened as a bagel shop in 1997 by an Italian from New York City. Since then it has evolved into a quality Italian restaurant, where you can dine in its warm countryside atmosphere, with wood, plants and classic checkered tablecloths.
