Our Story
Since April 29, 2016 A Journey of Love, Simplicity, and Authentic Pizza
Love & Pizza by the Tuscan Sea
In the charming town of Marina di Pisa, Gloria met Mauro on a sunny Tuscan day by the sparkling Mediterranean. Despite his many attempts, her heart remained unmoved—until one bold moment. Mauro climbed the rocky reef, shouted “Ti Amo, Gloria!” for all to hear, and won a hidden smile. That love now inspires Ti Amo Wood Fired Pizza, bringing passion and warmth to every bite.
That simple yet powerful phrase, Ti Amo—"I love you" in Italian—marked the beginning of their love story. Mauro’s heartfelt declaration won Gloria over, leading to a beautiful marriage and three children. Their story became a testament to how love, courage, and simplicity can create something timeless.
In the Spirit of Love & Tradition
In that same spirit of love and tradition, Mauro and Gloria introduced Ti Amo Wood Fired Pizza, a place where fresh, artisan pizza becomes a part of new memories, cherished traditions, and budding love stories.
From Street Food Roots to Wood-Fired Mastery
My name is Arjan, and I am proud to continue the legacy as the current owner of Ti Amo Wood Fired Pizza. My journey with food began in India, where I grew up savoring vibrant street food. What fascinated me most was how the best dishes were created with simplicity and mastery—street vendors specializing in one dish, perfecting it over years, and serving it fresh daily. It wasn’t about complexity; it was about using a few local ingredients to create something extraordinary.
The Beauty of Simplicity
Italian cuisine, India’s best street food, thrives on simplicity—letting fresh ingredients shine. A Caprese salad of tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, olive oil, and balsamic is proof: fresh, simple, satisfying. When I came to America, I worked in Indian restaurants with long menus that made freshness hard to maintain. Discovering true Italian wood-fired pizza captivated me—one dish, fresh ingredients, and quality above all.
A Family Tradition at Ti Amo
My bond with Italian food grew through my wife, raised on it after her mother’s mission to Italy. As I fell in love with her, I embraced the cuisine’s warmth. At Ti Amo, I hand-select fresh, high-quality ingredients daily so every pizza tells our story. My wife, our two daughters, and I welcome you to share in the magic of Italian food—where every slice is a celebration of love, tradition, and fresh beginnings.
