Our Story
About Anthony's
Coal Fired Pizza
Discover the passion, people, and purpose behind anthony's coal fired pizza — crafting bold, authentic flavors in United States since 2002.
The Beginning
Our Story of
Anthony's Pizza
It all started in 2002 when Anthony Bruno opened a small coal-fired oven in Doral, Florida, with a single mission: to serve the most authentic, boldly flavored pizza in the United States. Armed with generations-old family recipes and an unwavering commitment to craft, Anthony's quickly became a local legend.
What sets anthony's coal fired pizza apart is our signature 900°F coal-fired oven — the same method used by traditional Italian pizzaiolos for centuries. The intense, even heat creates a perfectly charred, crispy crust while sealing in every drop of moisture and flavor. No shortcuts. No compromise.
Today, Anthony's serves thousands of pizza lovers across the United States, but the spirit remains unchanged — fresh ingredients, real craft, and a fire that never goes out.
