ANNOUNCING THE RETURN OF LAROSA’S MONTGOMERY INN PIZZA AND RONDOS

Cincinnati’s Iconic Flavors Reunite Again for a Limited Time

CINCINNATI, OHIO – August 22, 2023 – A legendary culinary reunion is back in Cincinnati for a limited time; beloved family pizzeria LaRosa’s and Montgomery Inn, an iconic barbecue favorite, have rekindled a partnership that began nearly twenty years ago for the return of a culinary creation that captured the hearts and taste buds of Cincinnatians; LaRosa’s Montgomery Inn Pizza and Montgomery Inn Rondos – now available at LaRosa’s.

For those who savor the unique blend of LaRosa's traditional pizza crust, Montgomery Inn's world-renowned barbecue sauce, and the tender goodness of their authentic pulled pork or chicken, the wait is over. Mark LaRosa, President and Chief Culinary Officer at LaRosa’s shared his excitement about the revival of this culinary masterpiece, "Our collaboration with Montgomery Inn has always been about celebrating two exceptional flavors that define our city. The return of Montgomery Inn Pizza and Rondos is a tribute to the Gregory family’s recipe and an opportunity for our guests to enjoy Cincinnati's favorite pizza and barbecue together again."

LaRosa’s Montgomery Inn Pizza features a combination of Montgomery Inn's sweet and tangy barbecue sauce, provolone cheese and pulled pork or chicken, creating a combination of flavors that is unmistakably Cincinnati. LaRosa’s Montgomery Inn Rondos, the perfect starter, are oven-baked blossoms of pizza dough infused with creamy garlic-pesto sauce, filled with provolone cheese, and topped with Montgomery Inn's authentic pulled pork or chicken. Finished with a drizzle of Montgomery Inn barbecue sauce, recently lauded as “one of the best barbecue sauces” by Bon Appetit Magazine, and accompanied by additional sauce for dipping, LaRosa’s Montgomery Inn Rondos are fast becoming a delightful part of Cincinnati's culinary heritage.

"We understand the deep connection our guests have with these distinctive tastes," Mark LaRosa remarked. "The return of Montgomery Inn Pizza and Rondos is a testament to our commitment to honoring our city's rich culinary traditions."

LaRosa’s Montgomery Inn Pizza and Montgomery Inn Rondos are available now through October exclusively at LaRosa's pizzerias throughout Greater Cincinnati, along with LaRosa’s menu of over 40 selections including starters, calzones, hoagys, salads, and pastas for dine in, pick up or delivery in the neighborhood. This long-awaited reunion promises to delight old fans and introduce new ones to the irresistible harmony of Cincinnati's favorite pizza and barbecue.
