About Florencia Pizza Bistro
At Florencia Pizza Bistro, spreading tomato sauce on a disk of housemade crust is indeed tradition, but a tradition that has a few exceptions. The Snow White—a recipe that has been with the bistro staff for more than 30 years—arranges basil, minced garlic, tomatoes, and cheese atop extra-virgin olive oil. Eight specialty pizzas and five pesto pizzas embrace this tomato-less approach, allowing the richness of toppings such as walnuts, italian sausage, and kalamata olives to hold the tongue's attention.
With the menu as their guide, guests can select a pre-established pizza or build an original one of their own. Gluten-free crust and low-fat cheese options accommodate dietary restrictions, and half-baked pizzas allow patrons to heat up their meals later, in the comforts of their gym’s sauna. Calzones, sandwiches, and panini—made with the same housemade pizza crust for bread—also wrap meats and veggies in a toasty embrace.
