Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Pizza Review at 5.0 against PizzApp+'s 4.4. The Pizza Review also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). PizzApp+'s advantage is ratings volume (186 vs 7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
