Poorly sourced, appears to fail WP:GNG. The one cited reliable source, a LA Times article, is a dead link. A Google Books search finds little evidence that this is a distinct and notable method of preparation of pizza (see Pizza#Styles), as opposed to just pizza as served in Iran, maybe with some local spices and ingredients. If this can be sourced better, it could be merged to List of pizza varieties by country#Iran. Sandstein 16:26, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I found an archived version of the Los Angeles Times review by going directly to http://web.archive.org/ and choosing the oldest archived version of the review. And I found and added two journal articles that make reference to Iranian pizza, although not as their primary topic. The trademark application doesn't really matter, but I think notability has been shown. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 17:43, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure about notability but as for one I can certify it is delicious Mardetanha (talk) 16:20, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - there are multiple passing references to help establish that this is more than just a combination of <country_name>+<pizza>; its a specific variation of a notable dish and a spin-out article seems appropriate. Sources like this provide enough information to substantiate an article, I think. St★lwart¹¹¹ 02:16, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – Below is a source that provides significant coverage. It appears to be reliable, as per the bottom of the page, where it states, "Bittersweet is a Blogo supplement. Blogo is a registered newspaper. ROC registration n. 22649". The article translates well into English using Google Translate. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 09:17, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mariani, Carlotta (25 January 2021). "Persian pizza, l’opulenta e conditissima pizza dell’Iran". Blogo. (Italian).
