Italian Village Pizza
Italian Village Pizza has served delicious Italian lunches and dinner since 1980. The menu includes a wide variety of starters, such as breadsticks, meatballs, and wings. You can create a pizza from a wide array of toppings and sauces. Specialty pizzas include a Supreme White Pizza, Carnivore’s Special, and the new Burrata Margherita that features fresh basil and buttery Burrata cheese. All pizzas are available with either a Napolitana (extra thin) or thick Sicilian crust. Gluten-free and cauliflower crusts are available for those with special dietary needs.
Other menu options include calzone, stromboli, and the local-favorite Village Rolls. These scrumptious rolls are made from pizza dough stuffed with mozzarella, Parmesan, and your choice of pepperoni, sausage, steak, or spinach. Homemade soups, salads, baked hoagies, burgers, cheesesteaks, and pasta dishes round out the menu. For dessert, Italian Village Pizza offers hand-filled cannoli and zeppole.
