About Us
Rubirosa is Angelo (AJ) Pappalardo's family-run neighborhood Italian restaurant and pizzeria. The menu at Rubirosa consists of Al DiMeglio's (Olana, Osteria del Circo) take on Italian classics including a wide array of house-made pastas as well as its flagship thin-crust pizza dating back to a 50 year old family recipe. The family recipe originated at Joe and Pats pizzeria in Staten Island which is the namesake pizzeria of AJ's father Giuseppe. The food is complimented by a unique Italian focused wine, cocktail and spirits program.
