TWO GENERATIONS OF HISTORY
BRING FOOD AND FAMILY TOGETHER
FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS...
The Original Brothers Pizza is more than a name, it is a family story of the American dream built on dedication, determination and a vision. Looking to make a life for his family, my dad, Anthony Pistone, and his brothers set out to create a dining experience that would offer the authentic Italian traditions that came from his family’s table in Sicily to America. With three locations, the Original Brothers Pizza at Northland Center, Stormstown and Snow Shoe do their best to create just that.
Cherished childhood memories were filled with lively family get togethers and a table full of home cooked Italian dishes. Our dinners involved a tradition of taking time out to cook together, laugh, chat and just relax among family and friends. Today we do our best to continue the same beautiful heritage that extends beyond our home. We believe that the fondest memories are made when friends and family gather around a table filled with delicious food.

OUR STORY
TIMELINE OF US
Anthony Pistone is born in Carini, Sicily. His love of Authentic Italian Cuisine begins and will continue throughout the 14 years that he and his family live in Sicily.
In a frightening, yet hopeful, journey to the United States, the Pistone family boards the Conte Biancamano and sets sail for Ellis Island, NY.
From our love of classic cars and history, the Original Brother's Pizza truck is re-built and the OG logo is created.
Anthony passed away, living a life full of adventure and creation. His legacy is continued in his family, the businesses he built, the community he cultured, and the recipes he created.
KEEPING TRADITION...
What I have learned from my father is invaluable. Growing up in the restaurant business I watched as he (Anthony) tirelessly worked hard on creating fresh, quality menu items. Dough was made daily, cheeses shredded, quality meats cut daily, lasagna made fresh and so much more. But it was not only that, he was always able to greet everyone with a smile and truly appreciated their patronage.

Today, we continue all of these traditions at each of our 3 locations.
STOP BY AND GET TO KNOW US...
Our vision has always been to bring family and friends together around a great meal. We invite you to stop by and get to know us. Our three locations each offer a beautiful display of old photos telling the legacy of my father’s story and capturing a moment in time. We invite you to ask questions about our past and sit back and enjoy true NY style pizza. At all of our locations, our goal is to offer you a place to feel at home while enjoying great food with your friends and family. All of our establishments are BYOB and offer free wifi.
Our family would like to personally invite you to be our guest and come, eat, and stay a bit… we don’t mind!

STORMSTOWN LOCATION EVENTS
ANNUAL EASTER EGG HUNT
Each year we have a HUGE easter egg hunt for the kids in and around our Stormstown location. We spread thousands of eggs all over our 4-acre property and watch in amazement at the sugar-frenzy that ensues. This is simply not a sight to miss. If you have younger children, we will keep you posted on the time that this event happens each year.
AUTHENTIC CAR SHOWS
In the warm summer months, we host car shows for visitors, diners, and mechanical gurus alike. These events happen every other week at our Stormstown location and often include live music from local talent. Feel free to bring a blanket, a bottle of wine, and enjoy the sights and sounds. We are just a few steps away if you end up getting hungry!
LIVE MUSIC
From acoustic sets to a full-band experience, we now offer live music either outside in the summer months or inside in the winter months. A perfect atmosphere to support local talent or even do a performance yourself! We are always looking for new talent so if you have any requests feel free to contact us directly.
