Gene and Kathy Odato founded Artisan Pizza in 2016 to honor their heritage as Gene is a second generation Italian immigrant. The pair dish out top-notch pizzas across the Landisburg and the central Pennsylvania area. The Odatos' background means these pies are authentic, adhering to the flavor profiles and cooking practices that made this cuisine beloved throughout Italy. If you consider yourself a pizza connoisseur, this is fare worth sampling. When the Odatos decided to get cooking, they built a brick oven in their backyard and began experimenting. Over 25 years of trial and error went into the pies you’ll find at Artisan Pizza, so the name is pretty apt. Each dish is a true work of art. Pizzas are named after Italian painters or artwork, a nod both to the craftsmanship of the eats and the fact Kathy is a retired art teacher. The flavor profiles may be simple, sticking to veritable classics rather than new spins on tradition, but pizza does not have to be fancy when it’s made right. You’ll taste each and every ingredient individually given the meticulous preparation that goes into these pies. Sound good to you? Book Artisan Pizza for your next event to give guests a pizza party they won’t regret. MUST TRY The Mona Lisa - A crisp, golden brown crust smothered in bubbly romano and provolone cheese seasoned with a mix of tomato and fresh basil. Yum.
