Of the numerous exceptional pies on the menu is a customer favorite called grandma pizza. One taste and Italians are instantly transported back to the pizza their grandma made, filled with flavor and love. The crust acts like a fluffy pillow, holding a combination of Big Italy’s signature sauce and just the right amount of mozzarella.

The choice of parm heroes is impressive. Whether it is the chicken, veal cutlet, meatball, eggplant, sausage, or cold Italian hero, all come filled to the brim.

A special nod must be given to Big Italy ‘s meatballs. These luscious stars have just the right consistency and are a perfect addition to your pizza, hero, or as a stand-alone offering with their signature sauce and Italian bread.

Make sure to leave room for the homemade cannoli. This heavenly confection features a crispy hand-rolled pastry and velvety sweet ricotta cream filling topped with a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
