Angelo's Pizza

About Angelo's Pizza

Some places are more than restaurants. They become part of the rhythm of a town, woven into family routines, celebrations, and everyday life. Angelo’s Larchmont Pizzeria is one of those places.

This is a story about family, hard work, and the kind of consistency that builds trust over generations.

The roots of Angelo’s go back to 1968, when the Cusumano family opened their first pizzeria, Riccardo’s, in Brooklyn, New York. That same year, many New York families were growing up on neighborhood streets where local pizzerias were more than businesses. They were gathering places.

The Cusumano family had emigrated from Sicily just three years earlier, bringing with them a deep respect for quality, freshness, and honest work. From a young age, Pino Cusumano was immersed in that world, helping his father sell slices, sandwiches, pizza, and Italian ice. That early experience shaped not just his work ethic, but his understanding of people and community.

Eventually, the family moved to New Jersey in search of opportunity, opening pizzerias in Willingboro Plaza and beyond. At 29 years old, Pino took a leap of faith and opened Angelo’s Larchmont in Mount Laurel, building the restaurant from the ground up. Today, decades later, he continues to operate with the same values that were instilled in him as a child.

At Angelo’s, the philosophy has always been clear: highest quality, consistency, freshness, and cleanliness. It shows in every menu staple, from the pizza and wings to the chicken parm dinners and homemade meatballs. When asked about favorites, the answer is simple—the classic pizza. Sometimes tradition endures because it gets it right.

But Angelo’s has never been just about food.

It is deeply rooted in the Mount Laurel community. Schools and nonprofit organizations are supported through discounts. Police officers, firefighters, EMS, and military personnel receive a 20% discount as a sign of appreciation for their service. The restaurant also donates food to families in need, doing so quietly and respectfully.

One small moment captures the spirit of Angelo’s perfectly. On the Fourth of July, when the restaurant was closed, a regular customer arrived with his young son. When the child realized they were closed, he became upset. Rather than turning them away, Pino reopened the kitchen and made the family a pizza. No announcement, no expectation—just kindness.

As Angelo’s looks toward the future, the mission remains unchanged: continue serving the community with care, keep improving, and honor the people who have supported the business for more than three decades. With over 33 years in Mount Laurel, Angelo’s Larchmont Pizzeria remains a steady, trusted presence.

This is what a true community business looks like—built on relationships, sustained by trust, and shared one meal at a time.
