10 Northeast Florida Pizza Places Ranked by Google Stars, With Their Latest State Inspection Results

Jacksonville, Fla. - Main St Pizza & Ice Cream0 in Hastings tops our list of 10 Northeast Florida pizza places with 4.7 Google stars from 445 reviews. But its latest state inspection, on Oct. 21, ended with an inspector recommending an emergency order, a reminder that star ratings and health inspections measure very different things.

The Jax Times compared Google ratings, review counts and Florida restaurant inspection records for 10 pizza places in Duval, St. Johns, Clay and Nassau counties.

The ranking uses Google star ratings pulled in October 2026, with review counts breaking ties. Inspection results come from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) and did not affect the order.

The 10 pizza places, ranked

All dates are 2026. This is a ranking of Google ratings in our database, not a taste test or an independent food review.

No. 1: an emergency order recommendation

Main St Pizza & Ice Cream, at 125 N. Main St. in Hastings, leads the group with 4.7 stars.

Its recent inspection history tells a separate story:

• Oct. 20: An inspection found 5 high-priority, 2 intermediate and 3 basic violations. The inspector recommended an administrative complaint.
• Oct. 21: A callback found 1 high-priority violation and again recommended an administrative complaint.
• Oct. 21: A second visit that day found 1 high-priority violation and ended with "Emergency order recommended."

A recommendation is not a final state ruling, and results can change after later visits. Readers can check the current status in the Jax Times restaurant inspection lookup at jaxtimes.com/restaurants.

Five Star Pizza takes Nos. 2 and 3

The Five Star Pizza at 3325 Plymouth St., Suite 2, in Jacksonville ranks second with 4.5 stars and 1,306 reviews, the most reviews of any place on the list.

Its Aug. 10 inspection ended with a warning after the inspector found 2 intermediate and 4 basic violations. The Oct. 19 callback found zero violations and was marked "Call Back - Complied."

The Five Star Pizza at 987 Ponce De Leon Blvd. S. in St. Augustine ranks third, also with 4.5 stars, from 1,265 reviews.

Its Oct. 21 inspection found 2 high-priority, 1 intermediate and 2 basic violations, and the inspector recommended an administrative complaint.

Same name, same star rating, different latest results.

Four got "No Further Action"

Four of the 10 had a latest result of "Inspection Completed - No Further Action," which means they met standards that day. Inspectors can still note violations on those visits:

• Mama Mias Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant5, 12220 Atlantic Blvd., Suite 114, Jacksonville: Oct. 21, 1 high-priority, 1 intermediate and 3 basic violations.

Three fixed their problems on a callback

Three places had a latest result of "Call Back - Complied," meaning a follow-up visit found earlier problems fixed.

Brooklyn Biggies Pizza0, 1053 Park St., Jacksonville, got a warning Oct. 19 after the inspector found 2 high-priority, 1 intermediate and 4 basic violations. The Oct. 21 callback found zero.

Stoner's Pizza Joint Jacksonville Southside, 3837-7 Southside Blvd., had 23 violations on Aug. 20: 3 high-priority, 4 intermediate and 16 basic. Its Oct. 21 callback found zero.

Bronx House: 19 violations on its latest visit

Bronx House Pizza0, 13500 Beach Blvd., Unit 36A, in Jacksonville, ranks sixth with 4.4 stars from 287 reviews.

Its Oct. 21 inspection found 3 high-priority, 7 intermediate and 9 basic violations. That's 19 in all (3 + 7 + 9), the most of any place's latest visit on this list. The inspector recommended an administrative complaint, which is not a final penalty.

How to read Florida inspection results

Florida doesn't give restaurants number scores. It reports results:

High-priority violations are the most serious kind. Intermediate and basic violations are counted separately.

The latest results by the numbers

What it means for pizza lovers

In this group, star ratings and inspection results didn't line up. The highest-rated place got the most serious recommendation on the list, while the place with the most reviews passed its follow-up.

A star rating reflects what customers think of the food and service. An inspection reflects what one inspector saw in the kitchen on one day. Both are useful, and checking both takes about a minute.

Quick Q&A

Does "No Further Action" mean zero violations? No. All four places with that result had at least one violation noted.

Does "administrative complaint recommended" mean a fine? Not necessarily. It's the inspector's recommendation, not a final ruling.

Can results change? Yes. Brooklyn Biggies, Stoner's and Five Star Pizza on Plymouth Street all went from a warning to a clean callback.

Are these the only pizza places in Northeast Florida? No. Our database lists 246 places with "pizza" in the name. These 10 are the ones matched to a Google rating.
