Russo’s New York Pizzeria
Russo’s Family Kitchen is more than just a pizza restaurant.
Owner & Chef Anthony Russo grew up in New Jersey learning how to cook family recipes that came from his parents’ home in Naples and Sicily. His family moved to Galveston in 1978, when Anthony was a boy, and opened Russo’s Italian Restaurant. Anthony says he’s been working in the kitchen ever since.
Russo’s continues to follow the same traditions and concepts started by his parents half a century ago. “I still use the same cheese, the same sauce products, the same olive oil,” Anthony says. “For 30 plus years, I've been using them in our system.”
While classic pepperoni pizza is always the most popular, Russo’s offers a variety of different options and toppings for their pizza. Their Truffle Mushroom Pizza and Pasta dishes are favorites this time of year. Although pizza is their specialty, the restaurant offers various kinds of pasta, salads, sandwiches, as well as vegan and gluten free options. “It's all Italian family recipes, and we've been doing it for 50-60 years when the recipes originated. It hasn’t changed.”
Although Russo’s started in the Houston area, it has grown to include 56 locations in cities across Texas, California, Florida, and Arizona, and as well as international locations in Dubai and Doha. Russo’s New York Pizzeria in Bridgeland operates as the restaurant’s corporate store, where Anthony says they enjoy giving back to the community. “We like giving back to kids and working with the schools,” says Anthony. “And supporting the community with special events.”
