Pesto Pizza
At Anthony’s Italian Restaurant in DeLand, our Pesto Pizza is a vibrant and flavorful twist on traditional pizza, perfect for anyone who loves fresh, aromatic ingredients. Instead of the classic tomato-based sauce, we start with our homemade pesto sauce, a rich blend of fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. This sauce infuses every bite with bright, herbaceous flavor, giving the pizza a unique and irresistible taste that stands out from the rest.

Next, we layer on generous portions of mozzarella cheese, melted to perfection to create a gooey, creamy base that balances beautifully with the fresh, fragrant pesto. The combination of melted mozzarella and pesto creates a harmonious mix of textures and flavors — the richness of the cheese paired with the aromatic punch of basil and garlic makes every slice truly unforgettable.

To elevate the flavor even more, we sprinkle fresh minced garlic and oregano over the top, giving the pizza an extra layer of depth and a subtle, savory bite that complements the pesto perfectly. Every ingredient is carefully selected for freshness and quality, reflecting our commitment to authentic Italian flavors and the care we put into every pizza we serve.

Baked in our hot ovens, the crust achieves the ideal balance of crispiness on the outside and soft, chewy perfection on the inside, creating the perfect foundation for our flavorful toppings. The result is a pizza that’s both light and satisfying — full of freshness, flavor, and that unmistakable Anthony’s touch.

Whether you’re sharing it with friends, enjoying it as a solo indulgence, or pairing it with a crisp salad or appetizer, our Pesto Pizza is a delicious choice for anyone seeking a fresh, gourmet pizza experience. With every bite, you’ll taste the quality, passion, and tradition that make Anthony’s Italian Restaurant a favorite in DeLand.
