Frequently Asked Questions

  • What makes hand-tossed pizza dough different from regular dough?

    Hand-tossed dough is stretched by hand rather than pressed or rolled, creating a lighter, airier texture with a crispy yet chewy crust. At Pizza By Marchellonis, we make our hand-tossed dough fresh daily to ensure optimal flavor and texture in every pizza we serve.
  • What are Marchelloni Rolls and how are they made?

    Marchelloni Rolls are freshly baked rolls stuffed with savory fillings like cheese, meats, and spices. They're made to order with a golden, crispy exterior and a soft inside, then served hot for maximum flavor and freshness.
  • How do oven-toasted subs differ from cold subs?

    Oven-toasted subs are heated until the bread is crispy and the cheese melts, creating a hot, hearty sandwich with enhanced flavors. At Pizza By Marchellonis, we load our toasted subs with generous portions of meats and cheeses, making them ideal for lunch or dinner.
