July 12, 2018 // Franchising.com // HOUSTON - “If it isn’t fresh, don’t serve it!” - that’s the Russo’s New York Pizzeria promise. The brand’s commitment to fresh, made-from-scratch food is the driving force behind its recently introduced menu items, which burst with new and exceptional flavors.

Chef Anthony Russo, founder and CEO of Russo’s New York Pizzeria and the brand’s creative culinary mind, announced today the introduction of several creative new menu items. These new Italian inspired dishes blend generations of Russo family recipes with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Russo’s New York Pizzeria uses only the highest-quality and authentic ingredients.
