A Passion for Flavor, A Commitment to Quality
From day one, our goal has been simple—serve great food with honest ingredients. Every dish we create is made with care, bringing together tradition and fresh flavors that keep you coming back.
From a Small Café to New York-Style Pizza
In 2013, my brother-in-law and I took a leap of faith. We moved from Massachusetts to Florida with a dream—to create a place where people could enjoy great food made with care. That dream started with Sunnyside Café, a small breakfast spot that quickly became a local favorite. We poured everything into it, making sure every plate was prepared with fresh ingredients and served with pride.
A Helping Hand from an Unexpected Friend
One day, a customer told us about his son, Tony Villani. He thought Tony could help us grow, but we didn’t know just how much. I traveled to Texas to meet Tony, and before I knew it, he sent his own chef to Florida. In just a week, my team was learning how to make some of the best pizza I had ever tasted. I had to ask—why was Tony so willing to help?
A Full-Circle Moment
Tony’s parents had been longtime customers at Sunnyside Café. They loved our food, and when Tony heard we wanted to start a pizza restaurant, he wanted to give back. Helping us was his way of supporting the place his parents had always enjoyed. That kind of generosity is rare, and it reminded me why we started in the first place—good food has a way of bringing people together.
What Makes Us Different
At our restaurant, everything is made from scratch— no shortcuts. Our dough is prepared the old-fashioned way, hand-tossed and baked on stone hearths for that perfect crisp. The sauces are fresh, the ingredients are real, and you can see it all come together in our open kitchen. It’s more than just pizza—it’s a craft.
