Where it all began...

Italian food is in the blood of our owners, Silvio and Josephine Cammarata, natives of Sicily, Italy. They came to the United States many years ago in search of a better life and built a wonderful family along the way.  Their journey in the restaurant business began in 1980 when they purchased their first pizzeria in Brooklyn, New York. In 1989, they continued their journey by opening another restaurant in Kingston, New York. Then in 1995, they made the move to Apex, North Carolina and opened J & S New York Pizza. Their three children—Philip, Ven, and Lori—joined the family business and helped build the restaurant into a local favorite. In 2007, the family expanded with a second location in Fuquay-Varina. Today, the Cammarata tradition continues with the next generation, as even the grandchildren work alongside the family, proudly serving the same homemade pizzas and Italian dishes the community has loved for years.
