Everybody loves pizza! Santa Feans think Back Road Pizza has some of the best; it's constantly on the annual Best of Santa Fe list. The eatery was featured on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-ins and Dives in 2009. You can catch it in reruns. Back Road Pizza started in Madrid, a small "ghost" town south of Santa Fe. It moved to its current 2nd Street location in 2003. What sets them apart? The thin flour crust gets a local twist. It's rolled in cornmeal, creating a unique texture and flavor. All food is hand-crafted on site. Meats are locally raised and much of the cheese is produced in New Mexico. Can't eat wheat? They offer a gluten-free crust. The signature pizza, the New Mexican sports New Mexico green chile, pepperoni and red onions. Enjoy Santa Fe micro-brews on tap as well as Santa Fe Cider Works' hard cider.

EXPERT TIPS BY:
Billie Frank
Santa Fe Local Expert
- Best Restaurants: "Try the popular Penny's Bruschetta, a recipe that came from owner Piper Kapin's mom. This favorite is one of the recipes Kapin cooked with the Food Network's Guy Fieri. Tune into the show next time the episode is on and learn how to make it at home."
- Recommended as Best Restaurants Because: Every best list should have this popular "American" food and Back Road's version rocks.
