A Different Kind of Pizza Franchise

Fresh food.
Italian roots.
A reason to gather.

Russo's story starts with Chef Anthony Russo's Italian roots and a simple belief: good food starts with good ingredients. We bring that approach to premium New York-style pizza, fresh pasta, and the warmth of an Italian kitchen.

Handcrafted pizza. Fresh pasta. Cooking with extra virgin olive oil and no seed oil. It's a concept built around the food people come together to enjoy—with dine-in, takeout, delivery, and catering bringing Russo's into everyday life.
