About us
Welcome to Ilforno Pizzeria
A Frederick Tradition for Over 35 Years
At Ilforno Pizzeria, we believe that staying true to your roots is the secret to great taste. Proudly family-owned and operated, we have had the honor of serving Frederick and our surrounding communities for more than three decades. While we have grown and evolved, our commitment to quality remains unchanged—we still use the same time-honored recipes and signature homemade dough that first made us a local favorite.
Excellence in Every Slice
We are humbled to be consistently recognized as "Best Pizza" by both Frederick Magazine and The Frederick News-Post. It is a standard of excellence we strive to meet with every order that leaves our kitchen.
New Flavors, New Spaces
We are thrilled to announce our latest expansion: The Taproom at Ilforno. Featuring a curated selection of craft beers from Vanish Farmwoods Brewery, the taproom offers a fresh way to enjoy the Ilforno menu you know and love. Whether you prefer the energy of our new taproom, the casual atmosphere of our bar, or the classic comfort of our dining room, the choice is yours.
Perfect for Every Occasion
No matter the size of your party, we have a seat for you:
- Intimate Evenings: Enjoy a quiet, relaxed dinner for two.
- Family Traditions: A welcoming environment for parents and children alike.
- Team Celebrations: The go-to spot for Little League teams and local clubs.
