「Pizza Studio Tamaki (PST)」is a cult favorite on Tokyo’s pizza scene. At the center is chef Tsubasa Tamaki (玉城翼), an Okinawa-born, self-taught pizzaiolo who trained in Tokyo, having studied under Susumu Kakinuma of「Seirinkan」. His style is rooted in Neapolitan pizza, but pushed in a more experimental direction. A proprietary flour blend, a 30-hour fermentation, a custom-built oven fired to around 480°C / nearly 900°F, and even Japanese cedar shavings added to the fire all shape the final pie.

That difference shows up in the pizza itself. PST‘s offering is more expansive and modern, with pies such as the Tamaki, 5 Formaggi, and Bismarck alongside the classics and seasonal ones. The crust is still unmistakably Tokyo-Neapolitan—light, blistered, and deeply charred—but the flavor profile leans more expressive, with smoke, salinity, and richer combinations playing a larger role.

Few names carry as much weight in the pizza 🍕world as this one. Scored a walk-in seat and honestly… it lived up to every bit of the legend. One of the true pioneers of Tokyo’s pizza scene, and still ranked among the best in the world 🌎 This small shop delivers pure mastery with blistered crusts, balance and precision in every bite.

Loved the pizza at PST. Tokyo is definitely one of the world’s best pizza cities alongside Naples and Copenhagen. The margherita was great here but the tamaki was even better (amazing cherry tomatoes, fresh smoked mozzarella, pecorino Romano and basil). The dough is heavily salted, light and so delicious. #foodinlondon #tokyo #pst #pstpizza #pizza #pizzastudiotamaki #psthigashiazabu #tamaki

Lunch at Pizza Studio Tamaki

First experience with PST. Tasty, but the dough isn't as soft and wet as Neapolitan-style. We could only try two options but liked both.
