Ardovino's Pizza is a locally owned Italian Restaurant that specializes in pizza and pizza delivery, but also serves other Italian dishes such as lasagna. We also serve a variety of appetizers, soups, salads and sandwiches. You can place an order for delivery or come in and enjoy a nice meal with friendly service. We hope to see you soon! Ardovino's first opened its doors in 1961 at its Cincinnati Street location. The original Ardovino's was an Italian gourmet food mart. The evolution to a restaurant and delicatessen happened over time as the business evolved. Today, over 50 years later, Ardovino's Pizza has established itself as one of El Paso's landmark dining venues with four restaurants across the city including: downtown, west, east and on the northeast side. Ardovino's Pizza built its reputation on creating mouthwatering signature pizzas, salads and sandwiches. Their house favorite pizzas, most notably: The Joanna's, Royal, Four Seasons and Woody are a wonderfully unique blend of vegetables, sauces, pepperoni and other specialty toppings. The Garden Green and Antipasto salads are an easy choice for those looking for something light. Guests craving an old-fashioned deli sandwich will enjoy the Turkey Pesto Sandwich. The walls of the restaurant are adorned with wine racks holding an impressive array of wine and their cooler is lined with cold, domestic and craft beers from across the globe...
A family-owned operation, Ardovino's Desert Crossing has been delighting residents of the El Paso area since 1949. A ranch house by the name of Ardovino's Roadside Inn has been transformed into this wonderful Italian restaurant which has delicious preparations like Pizza Greco and Pork Chop Ardovino to offer you. The Mecca Lounge, which stays open later than the restaurant, has a great wine selection to enhance your meal. Ardovino's Desert Crossing is also famous for the annual farmers' market it hosts.
This charming restaurant has been given the Award for Excellence multiple times by Wine Spectator. But if you're one of those pessimists, there's nothing quite like trial and error. So come by for some upscale American Southwestern cuisine and give them a run for their money. An interesting aspect of this cafe are the paintings by local artists, so take time out and have more than glance. The wine list has a few hard to find South American vintages as well as the staple dessert wines.
