About Imos Pizza
Crafting authentic wood-fired pizza with passion since 1973
Our Story
Born from a simple dream in Philadelphia, Imos Pizza began as a family vision to bring authentic wood-fired pizza to our community. What started in a small kitchen has grown into a beloved local institution.
Every pizza tells our story. From hand-stretched dough to carefully selected ingredients, we honor traditional techniques while embracing innovation. Our wood-fired ovens create that perfect char and smoky flavor that keeps customers coming back.
Today, we remain committed to the same values that guided our founders: quality ingredients, authentic methods, and genuine hospitality.
