ABOUT US

It started in 1975 when I was just a little boy of 6 years old. I knew that I wanted nothing more than to become a chef. I would come home from school, and my Grandma and my aunts would be making homemade pastas, desserts, pizzas and all of the old Italian favorites. I would change out of my school clothes, and off I went to our family restaurant, Villanova. This is where I would do my homework sitting on flour bags and a chest freezer. When I was hungry I would tell my dad, and he would grab the milk crate from under the oven where he always kept it for me, then he would tie the apron on me, and I would make my own pizza. Here we are more than 40 years later, and I still love making pizza! I know that my parents would be very proud and honored to have me sharing their family recipes with all of the community to enjoy. I hope that you enjoy these recipes as much as I did growing up! 

We take great pleasure in being able to provide you with a taste of italy in our family's traditions just like mama used to make them. as well as techniques like my father's Sicilian way of pizza making. Our hand tossed, thin crust pizza dough is made with Caputo "00" flour imported from italy.. Our pizzas are topped with the highest quality tomatoes in a thin layer to complement the crust.  Our mozzarella cheese is hand shredded for full aroma and flavor.  We fire our pizza in a stone oven for a light delicate crust.
