Ever wonder how Antonio’s can make so many pizzas? Our ovens are made by Pizzamaster - a company out of Sweden. The main one holds 24 large (18”) pizzas at the same time. The secondary oven holds another 12. With a bake time of 6-8 minutes per pizza, it means we could - in theory - put out 240 pizzas in an hour. Problem is, we cannot make that many in an hour. So many restaurants never replace their ovens and get stuck at a plateau when investment in a new one would take them to new heights. Technology in ovens is like cell phones- if you’re still using a Startac flip phone, you’re missing out! Lol

What's round, has plenty of garlic and combines the best tastes in pizza? Antonio's Red and White Striped Pizza! It starts with Bacio Mozzarella, fresh garlic, ricotta, then stripes of our homemade pizza sauce are added along with our garlic olive oil drizzle.

New York Pizza? In the flesh! Hi, my name is Antonio and I moved here from Long Island, NY in 2006. What does this mean and why does it matter? Authenticity is key to making a pizza that accurately represents an entire region. 4 generations of my family occupied the NYC area starting in the late 1890's. Food is central to Italian and Portuguese families and I'm a mix of both. The taste of our pizza represents my 38 years living within 30 miles of Manhattan; working in Manhattan for years, growing up visiting family in Brooklyn and enjoying the diverse tastes Long Island is know for.

When we arrived in Colorado, we found what many already knew- the slogan "NY STYLE" on a pizzeria sign is not entirely accurate in many many pizzerias except that the pizza is round and consists of sauce and cheese. We literally have people drive anywhere from 100 to 800 miles to eat our food after almost 6 years of being open. That does not happen in NYC because excellent pizza is common and available within a block or two; it's just a matter of the taste you want that day. Antonio's is located in the Rocky Mountains which makes it even more unlikely of a success. People do not come to the mountains expecting this level of taste. It has been our distinct pleasure to grow from a guy selling slices of Sicilian pizza out of a coffee shop in 2013 to one of the largest pizzerias in the state of Colorado both in ability to seat 150+ people (in non-covid times) and in volume of pizzas made. It's an unlikely story that is more common when a New Yorker moves away from home to share his/her tastes and experiences. New York teaches you many things and my tool box is full. Thank you for the opportunity to continually hone my craft, teach others and help the community of Estes Park. You all are in my heart and that heart is present in every pizza made here at Antonio's Real NY Pizza.
