About Us - Your Pizza Restaurant | Our Story Since 1985

Our Story

Your Pizza Restaurant has been a staple in South Boston, VA since 1985. What started as a small family-owned pizzeria has grown into a beloved local restaurant serving authentic Italian cuisine.

Founded by Michael Romano after immigrating from Naples, Italy, he brought with him generations of family recipes and a passion for traditional Italian cooking. The restaurant began as a small 10-table establishment focused primarily on pizza and a few pasta dishes. Over the years, as our customer base grew, so did our menu and our restaurant.

Today, Your Pizza Restaurant is run by the second generation of the Romano family, who continue to uphold the traditions and quality standards established by Michael. While we've expanded our menu to include a wider variety of Italian dishes, our commitment to using fresh, high-quality ingredients and making everything from scratch remains unchanged.
