Widely regarded as America’s very first pizzeria – and one of its very best – New York’s Lombardi’s was founded by Neapolitan immigrant Gennaro Lombardi in Manhattan’s Little Italy in 1905, and is credited with establishing New York-style pizza as we know it. Back then, Lombardi would sell tomato pies, wrapped in paper and tied with a string, to local factory workers at lunchtime. Over the years they evolved into the big, cheesy pizzas we know and love today.
Lombardi’s legendary pizzas are still made the same way they’ve been for decades. These pizzas start with fresh dough made daily, which gets topped with homemade tomato sauce, fresh whole milk mozzarella, and only the highest-quality toppings. Legions of pizza lovers have flocked to Lombardi’s for generations, and now their world-famous pizzas are shipping to your door!
