About
Antonio Scotto di Carlo is the real deal. Where better to learn how to cook Italian food than Italy? Antonio started learning cooking technique while working on a cargo ship in the Mediterranean. In 1980 he immigrated to the United States. His family owned successful pizzerias in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. After working in the family business for years he was finally ready to step out on his own. When Antonio opened Tony’s Pizza he couldn’t have know he would happen upon an eager young kid who would someday become his business partner. He instilled in his employees a sense of care for the people being served and the food they were served. His attention to quality carried over to his protogé.
Tony Smigelski found home in the kitchen as a teenager. He took his first job in the kitchen of Tony’s Pizza in Williamsport, MD. He was mentored by Antonio Scotto di Carlo, who would later become his business partner. When he wasn’t learning the art of pizza making he was working in his cousin’s upscale restaurant learning how to create and prepare gourmet dishes. All of this while attending college full-time. In 2006 he was presented with the opportunity he had worked for for 10 years – his very own restaurant. And even though he has the restaurant he always wanted and a college degree, he hasn’t satisfied his hunger for learning. He is currently pursuing his culinary degree. Tony is a great example of hard work and determination bringing great success.
Together, these two pizza gurus changed the face of "just another pizza place". Brother’s Pizzeria first opened its doors in 1979 to Charles Town, WV. With a great location right off of Rte 340, it was only a matter of time before all of Jefferson County knew about this little pizza place. In March of 2006 the previous owners sold the pizza place to Tony and Antonio. This teacher and student combination proved to transform a small pizza shop into an Italian dining experience. They introduced fresh ingredients and homemade sauces and reworked the entire menu. Tony and Antonio brought in their knowledge of great food and the Italian culture, creating the Panhandle’s very own slice of Italy!
