Grandma Pizza (16″ only)

At Anthony’s Italian Restaurant in DeLand, our Grandma Pizza is a tribute to the classic, old-world style of pizza that has been cherished in Italian households for generations. Crafted as a 16-inch thin Sicilian-style pizza, it delivers a perfect balance of crispiness, flavor, and authenticity in every bite. Unlike traditional thick-crust Sicilian pizzas, our Grandma Pie is thin and delicate, allowing the fresh ingredients to shine while maintaining a satisfying chewiness that makes each slice irresistible.

We start with our freshly prepared dough, stretched to a thin, even layer and baked to achieve a golden, slightly crisp crust. On top, we layer creamy, melted mozzarella cheese, which creates a rich and gooey foundation for the flavors to come. Unlike many pizzas, our Grandma Pizza features a fresh red tomato sauce placed on top of the cheese, adding a vibrant, tangy contrast to the creamy mozzarella and enhancing the natural flavor of the pizza. This method of layering gives each slice a perfect harmony of textures and flavors that is distinctively traditional and exceptionally delicious.

To finish, we add fresh basil leaves, providing a fragrant, aromatic touch that brings a bright, fresh note to every bite. The pizza is then carefully baked to perfection in our hot ovens, ensuring that the cheese melts evenly, the sauce remains flavorful, and the crust achieves that perfect golden crispness. The 16-inch pie is cut into eight generous slices, making it ideal for sharing with family, friends, or even enjoying as a hearty meal for one.

Our Grandma Pie is more than just a pizza; it is a nostalgic taste of Italy, honoring a simple yet sophisticated style that Italian families have loved for decades. Perfect for lunch, dinner, or any special gathering, it embodies the care, tradition, and quality that Anthony’s Italian Restaurant is known for in DeLand. Fresh ingredients, authentic preparation, and a dedication to flavor make our Grandma Pie a must-try for anyone who appreciates true Italian pizza craftsmanship.
