Da Francesco Pizza & Cucina reopens at 552 Grand Street! Da Francesco is a Pizzeria and Italian restaurant that was previously located at 442 Graham Avenue for 22 years. Owner Francesco Cuozzo is bringing decades of experience in the restaurant business to this new location. Da Francesco offers delicious pizza, alongside Italian classics like Penne Ala Vodka, Ravioli with Mushrooms & Truffles, and even desserts like Tiramisu.
Da Francesco is known for using high quality ingredients imported from Italy, and is an established community staple. When we visited the pizzeria, two longtime customers swung by and were delighted to see that Da Francesco is still in the neighborhood.
Francesco came to this country 22 years ago from Salerno, Italy. He has a deep love for the community in East Williamsburg - that’s why this new location isn’t too far from the original. He considers himself “a people person, who’s happy to feed folks”. He’s hardworking and loves to cook; when he’s not making pizza he’s spending time with his family. That family time is almost always about food as well; and when it isn’t, he’s talking to his sons about Juventus and other football clubs.
Swing by Da Francesco at 552 Grand Street for a delicious slice of pizza, plate of pasta, or cannoli!
