Although a date hasn’t been announced, Bricco plans to hold its Cherry Hill grand opening next week, when normal hours and service will become available. The pizzeria will announce more opening info on social media.
The pizzeria emphasizes a commitment to quality, boasting one of the priciest pizza ovens in the world at its Westmont location, according to Bricco’s website. The oven requires a two-hour pre-lighting process and hourly monitoring of the intense heat.
“Our dough is aged, brought to the proper temperature, and hand-tossed to create the perfect bake,” Bricco says.
