<p>Scottsdale, AZ --- Grimaldi&rsquo;s Pizzeria, famously known for their award-winning hand-tossed, coal-fired brick oven pizzas and calzones, fresh salads and delicious desserts is announcing its newest location in San Antonio&rsquo;s The Quarry, at 330 E. Basse Rd, off US-281 N and Basse Rd. With Frank Sinatra crooning in the background, Grimaldi&rsquo;s with over 100-years of pizza making traditions and the tantalizing aroma of pizza and calzones baked to perfection in the signature coal burning oven.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The newest location of Grimaldi&rsquo;s Pizzeria is expected to open this fall. Grimaldi&rsquo;s Pizzeria currently has twenty-six locations across the US; including Texas, Nevada, Arizona, Florida and its flagship stores in New York City. Currently, there is six locations operating in Texas and this newest location is the second to open in San Antonio, in the last three years.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In the world of pizza, Grimaldi&rsquo;s is an institution that has garnered more awards than any other pizzeria in the country with more celebrity sightings than most 5-star restaurants.&nbsp; Using only the freshest ingredients, a &ldquo;secret recipe&rdquo; pizza sauce, handmade mozzarella cheese and dough, Grimaldi&rsquo;s serves traditional pizza (as it began in Naples, Italy) in an upscale yet casual, family oriented pizzeria.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Designed and built by hand, the coal-fired oven at Grimaldi&rsquo;s Pizzeria delivers a unique flavor and consistency that is just not possible from wood or gas ovens.&nbsp; Weighing in at 25 tons and heated by 100 pounds of coal per day (cleanest burning fuel available and environmentally tested), the oven heats up to 1,200 degrees.&nbsp; The intense heat of the oven evenly bakes the pies to create Grimaldi&rsquo;s famous crispy and smoky thin crust that Zagat has voted best pizza year after year.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It has been said that the secret to true New York-style pizza is the water.&nbsp; Grimaldi&rsquo;s believes that too, going to great lengths to keep the integrity of the water used in the Brooklyn pizzeria by hiring a chemist to analyze and recreate the mineral content and exact composition of the water to ensure the dough tastes the same in Texas.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Grimaldi&rsquo;s Pizzeria wholly owns and operates locations in Phoenix, Tucson, Las Vegas, Reno, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Fort Myers, Palm Beach Gardens and Corpus Christi.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Grimaldi&rsquo;s offers guests a selection of beers as well as an extensive list of wines (by the glass and bottle) to complement their freshly prepared salads, hand tossed pizzas and calzones and famous desserts.
