A big congratulations to Loryn Nalic on being named James Beard Award Best Chef: Midwest

The hard work, creativity, and dedication that go into earning an honor like this cannot be overstated.

Happy Father's Day from all of us at Monte Bello Pizzeria.

We'll be closed Sunday, June 21.

We hope your day is filled with family, good food, and at least one story you've already heard three times.

We'll see you Wednesday at 4 PM.

The World Cup is bringing visitors from around the globe.

Many are discovering something Americans sometimes forget:

The best parts of America usually aren't found in a travel brochure.

They're found in family businesses.

Neighborhood restaurants. Places that have been part of their communities for generations.

Years from now, many of those visitors won't remember every place they ate.
They'll remember the one they still talk about when they get home.

The place with a story.

The place the locals recommended.

What's a place in St. Louis you'd tell a visitor they absolutely can't miss?

Not pizza.

Dennis has been cooking brisket all day for a catering order going out Monday and Tuesday.

And right now, the entire building smells incredible.

Get your pizza before the match starts.

Because showing up to a watch party without Monte Bello is a red card offense.

Some pizzas come with a box. This one came with documentation.

We wanted to make sure every topping combination was clearly identified, so a map was created.

A complimentary sticker was included to ensure there were no hard feelings. 😂🍕🗺️

We're back!

After a week of independent pizza and food research, our crew had a chance to recharge, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy a well-deserved break.

Now it's time to get back to work.

The dough is being made, our old oven is warming up again, and we'll be ready to see you at 4:00.

We're also kicking off our summer hours today:

🍕 Wednesday, Thursday & Sunday — 4 PM to 9 PM

🍕 Friday & Saturday — 4 PM to 10 PM

Thank you for your patience while we were away. We can't wait to see everyone again.
