Chris Bianco Career
Bianco started Pizzeria Bianco in the back corner of a Phoenix grocery store in 1988. He had no idea that he would become a driving force in the artisanal pizza movement. He just knew his food would reflect the respect and sincere intention that he brings to each of his recipes, as the result of his relationships with farmers, local producers, customers, and staff. In addition, he had a gift for making pizza which he honed during a two-year stint in Italy.
Bianco returned to America in 1994 and opened Pizzeria Bianco which became a pioneer in making artisanal pizza in the U.S. Notably, he won the James Beard Award for Best Chef Southwest in 2003.

Most importantly, Bianco’s devotion to fresh ingredients and locally sourced products is legendary. The menu at Pizzeria Bianco is refreshingly simple and unique: a few appetizers, salads, and six pizzas.
