History

Established in 2009.

Scordato's Pizzeria was originally opened as Pizzeria Vivace in March of 2009 in St. Philip's Plaza on the SE corner of Campbell and River in Tucson AZ. Daniel Scordato later changed the name to Scordato's Pizzeria to avoid confusion with his other restaurant, Vivace Restaurant. While the plaza was charming and quaint, both have since moved to their current locations to take advantage of the larger kitchens and abundant parking. Vivace is now located at Campbell and Sunrise across the street from La Encantada in the Catalina Foothills. The Pizzeria moved to Campbell and River and continues to enjoy success with an expanded menu and abundant parking.

Business owner information

Daniel S.

Business Owner

Born into a restaurant family, Daniel Scordato continues to live up to the impossibly high standards set by the familial patriarch, James Scordato Sr. some 42 years ago at the family's restaurant on west Speedway in Tucson AZ. In the early 80's, Daniel left the security of the family business and struck out on his own to open his namesake restaurant at the tender age of 25. Although he eventually wound up selling Daniel's, he took many of those life lessons he learned with him so that when opportunity knocked a few years later, in the form of Vivace, he was in a position to hit the ground running. The success of Vivace has afforded him the opportunity to expand his horizons which has led to the present and Scordato's Pizzeria where he continues to make the ordinary extraordinary.
