Villa Italian Kitchen is known for their Neapolitan and pan pizzas handmade with fresh dough, 100% whole milk mozzarella and homemade sauce to make their New York style Italian pizza. Now, guests can try Villa’s newest summertime favorite, BBQ Chicken Pizza bursting with flavors of tangy sweet barbecue sauce and red onions with chicken on top.
Villa’s famous handmade Stromboli is a favorite menu item and is now made with BBQ chicken for a delicious taste of summer! Stromboli is a form of Italian “pizza imbottito,” or “stuffed pizza,” in which various fillings are sandwiched between layers of fresh made dough and baked in an oven until golden brown. The result is a delicious hot classic Villa Stromboli.
Guests can choose to make their BBQ Chicken Pizza slice or Stromboli into a value meal with one side and a drink for a special price at any participating Villa Italian Kitchen location.
Besides Villa’s new Mountain Dew beverages and their famous handmade Stromboli and pizza both now with BBQ Chicken, the menu includes Italian Pastas, Salads and Entrees which make for a delicious lunch or dinner.
