Our Story
How Philly flavor met Florida coast—and fired up something fresh
Two Chefs. One Roof. Endless Flavor.
Philly Pizza Authority was founded by Chefs Ricardo (Rich) and Roberto (Rob), two industry veterans who brought their Philly roots to New Smyrna Beach. With over 80 years of combined experience, they’re serving bold, authentic Philly-inspired dishes along Florida’s coast. Their new menu blends classic staples with fresh favorites, all made with care. At Philly Pizza Authority, it’s more than food—it’s a story of flavor, family, and pride in every bite.
