Emiliano’s Pizzeria brings New York-style to FM 2978
At Emiliano’s, customers can create their own calzone ($12.99) with a variety of toppings.
To Emiliano Munoz, owning his own business was a dream he aspired to accomplish at retirement age. However, to honor his immigrant parents and business aspirations, 23-year-old Munoz opened Emiliano’s Pizzeria last February. What’s special about it? Crediting his love for cooking to his mother, Munoz said his business aspirations started with his family’s taco truck, Bucchia’s, where he, along with his mother, sold Mexican bites from tacos to tamales. “My mom’s a great cook. So I get my love for cook- ing from her,” Munoz said. “My mother can make a tortilla and cheese taste like a 10-star gourmet meal.”
From the oven Fresh from the oven, Emiliano’s Pizzeria o ers scratch-made New York-style pizzas with dough fermented for up to 72 hours and baked in a natural gas brick oven, Munoz said. Baked at 550 degrees, Munoz said each pizza is made with quality ingredients to prevent some of the bloating and indigestion other mainstream pizzerias can cause. Favorites from the menu range from the Emiliano Special, an enhanced version of the margherita pizza, to the Hot Honey Bu alo Chicken made with the local Texas Hot Honey.
