“These awards hit home because they reflect the fundamentals-sauce, cheese, and a well-executed classic pie,” said Lunardi. “We're honored to bring a taste of our pizza to the West Coast and represent Pittsburgh on a national stage.”
Lunardi competed alongside several fellow members of the U.S. Pizza Team, each showcasing their own unique take on America's favorite food. A standout moment came when teammate Mike Pitera, of Pizza A Modo Mio in Charleston, South Carolina, earned First Place for Best Sauce. “If I had to lose to anyone, I'm glad it was my friend and teammate,” Lunardi said. “It was a great experience to compete with such talent and passion in one room. The level of creativity and dedication to craft was truly inspiring.”
