The new store is scheduled to open in spring next year and will span an area of 1,600ft² to 2,000ft² with an open kitchen design and a large outdoor patio.

Russo’s New York Pizzeria & Italian Kitchen franchisee Phuong Thai said: “My husband and I are based in Arizona but spend part of our time living in Houston.

“We’ve been Russo’s customers for years and love the food, service and the entire Russo’s concept and franchise model.
