It’s hard to know what kind of quality you’re getting behind the scenes. It’s not always clear at first glance when looking at pictures on Instagram if pizza dough is high-quality and made in house. By the time you purchase a pizza, it could be too late and you’re stuck with a dried out, cardboard crust wishing you had done your research. ETNT is here to help make your life a little bit easier by pointing out five popular spots where the pizza dough is made in the house.

At MOD Pizza, you can top the pizza with unlimited toppings for one price. They really prioritize quality, pressing the dough daily and paying attention to every detail. “Food authenticity is a huge deal with us – where it comes from, how it’s prepared – and of course, how it tastes,” the website says. “From pressing our dough daily to roasting vegetables – we’ve made it a priority to keep our food true. We’re also mindful of animal ethics, environmental impact, and working with food partners that share our commitment to quality. If we wouldn’t serve it to our kids, we won’t serve it to you. It’s that simple.”
