Scornovacca's Legacy...
50 Years of Authentic Family Recipes and Unforgettable Flavors
Pizza...
The way it should be!
At Scorno’s, we don’t just make pizza - we craft a legacy. Our Chicago-style thin crust is hand-stretched from dough made fresh daily, stone-baked in our hearth ovens for that perfect crispy bite. Every pizza is loaded edge-to-edge with freshly shredded, all-natural Wisconsin mozzarella and topped with hand-chopped vegetables, flavorful ingredients, and house-made sauces. From our legendary onion rings and hand-cut mozzarella sticks to our scratch-made meatballs and signature Scorno’s Italian Sausage, every ingredient is prepared with care and tradition. This is more than a meal - it’s a labor of love passed down through three generations.
Fresh Ingredients.
Authentic Recipes. Innovative Dishes.
At Scorno’s, we believe pizza should be bold, fresh, and unforgettable. That’s why we make everything we can in-house - from hand-chopping produce to crafting our famous sausage blend. We pile our thin crust pizzas high with top-quality ingredients and bake them in a hearth stone oven for unbeatable flavor and crunch. Whether you’re craving the classics or something totally new, you’ll taste the difference quality makes - from the very first bite.
