As our leader, Ruth created a world of more than pizza – her vision of Pizzeria Paradiso during its formation was of her standing near the kitchen laughing with her co-workers. This vision serves as the bedrock of Pizzeria Paradiso and is fundamental to the creation of a nice, respectful and good place to work. Founded on the spirit of laughter, Pizzeria Paradiso evokes the warmth one feels in the home of a close friend. Chef Gresser’s vision continues to guide the staff and influence our customers extending the Pizzeria Paradiso community beyond the walls of our restaurants.

We are so proud and honored that Chef Gresser has been recognized by the James Beard Awards!
