Travelers Landing or Before Take-Off Can Now Enjoy New York Style Pizza, Stromboli, Pastas and Fresh Salads!
Villa Enterprises, multi-brand restaurant operator and franchisor celebrating 50 years in business, announced Villa Italian Kitchen is now open at Pittsburgh International Airport, Pittsburgh, PA. The airport recently completed their master plan to improve customer experience with a $10 million renovation of the airport’s airside terminal, which created a new retail mall and Center Core Food Court. Villa Italian Kitchen is conveniently located in this Food Court and features a variety of freshly made menu items daily.
“Villa is proud to watch guests at the newly renovated Pittsburgh International Airport enjoying our popular New York style pizza and famous Stromboli,” said Adam Torine, Executive Vice President of Development, Villa Enterprises. “A slice of pizza or a homemade Stromboli can make a long layover and time pass quickly when waiting for a flight!”
Villa Italian Kitchen features Neapolitan and pan pizzas handmade with fresh dough, 100% whole milk mozzarella and homemade sauce. Villa’s handmade Stromboli is also a favorite, and Italian pastas and entrees make for a delicious lunch or dinner. Villa offers large to-go orders and catering, perfect for pizza lovers, the family or events.

Villa was founded 50 years ago, and built its business on the strict loyalty to authentic old-world recipes that Michele Scotto brought with him from Naples, Italy in 1964. From the first pizzeria that opened in 1964 next to the Ed Sullivan Theater on Broadway in New York, to their new restaurants at Pittsburgh International Airport, that commitment to quality food and genuine hospitality is still the hallmark of Villa.
