How It All Started
The Story Behind
Jet's Pizza
Jet's pizza was born in 1998 on the bustling corner of Amsterdam Avenue in New York City. What started as a single family-run shop fueled by a love of authentic Italian recipes and fresh, local ingredients has grown into one of New York's most beloved pizza destinations.
Founded by chef Marco "Jet" Rosario, jets pizza was built on a simple promise: use only the freshest ingredients, handcraft every dough from scratch, and treat every customer like family. That philosophy hasn't changed in over two decades of serving New Yorkers.
- Hand-stretched dough made fresh every morning using a 25-year-old family recipe
- San Marzano tomatoes sourced directly from our partner farms in Italy
- Locally sourced toppings from trusted New York-area suppliers and markets
- Wood-fired ovens that deliver the perfect crisp crust in every single slice
