The tradition started by Gennaro Lombardi.

Excellent pizza created by master pizzioli.

The coal fired oven is a key ingredient to this amazing pizza. Thin crust Neapolitan pizza cooked to perfection.

Lombardi’s does not disappoint. The pizza is excellent.

From The History of  Pizza from Pizza Therapy:

“The first American pizzeria was opened in New York in 1905 by Gennaro Lombardi.  This restaurant ( Lombardi’s) is still in operation today. The pizza is baked in a coal burning oven with the same recipe Gennaro Lombardi brought from Naples in 1897.”
