What are the best ways to complement Russo’s pizza with specific beverages?
While everyone has their preferences on food and beverage pairings, we’ve discovered that certain combinations are a consistent hit with pizza patrons. There’s no “wrong” drink to mix with pizza (since a nice slice makes every beverage better), but let's narrow it down to six popular options.
Beer
Pizza and beer go fantastic together, especially when you grab some Russo’s for takeout, and enjoy a cold one in front of a ballgame. The only tricky part is that there are MANY beer styles, just like there is a litany of pizza toppings. Therefore, mixing and matching may be difficult. You could probably pair a lighter ale with a white-sauced pizza, a pilsner with meat lovers, and perhaps a hoppier/fruitier beer with Hawaiian Pizza.
Wine
Wine also comes in different varieties. So, you’ll have to choose your favorite (red, white, pink, etc.) and select an appropriate pizza from there (or vice-a-versa). We think a crisp Chardonnay would go well with our Margherita Pizza. While you’re at it, don’t forget to try a delightful white wine with our Shrimp Scampi or Fettuccine Alfredo (if you’re more of a pasta person).
Sparkling Water
Not everything has to have alcohol, of course. Bubbly water has become more popular lately, and the fizzy carbonation lends itself to almost any pizza selection. Perhaps it might be just what you need to balance one of our spicier pizzas, like Doppio Pepperoni.
Lemonade
Homemade lemonade is always wonderful, especially when it gets hot here in Texas. This drink doesn’t have an obvious pizza pairing, but that’s because it’s versatile enough to work with just about any toppings and sauces.
Ice Tea
Whether you make your tea sweetened or unsweetened, this is another refreshing option you can enjoy with a multitude of selections. You could try the sweeter variety to complement anything with our authentic Russo’s Pizza Sauce.
Soda
This last option offers that delightful fizz-like sparkled water, but with more flavor. Our sources tell us Dr. Pepper may be the favorite in Texas, which is easy to mix with anything on our menu: pizzas, calzones, meatball parmesan sandwiches, and more.
Those are six pizza/beverage combos for you to explore. Did we miss one of your favorites?

Around these parts, we do Happy Hour every day of the week. However, it’s now even better to dine with us for lunch every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Besides these outstanding lunch deals, it’s important to emphasize the indisputable value of a fulfilling lunch. While so many Americans, busy with work, are tempted to skip this cornerstone meal, there are many reasons you shouldn’t.
More Energy to Finish the Day
Do you struggle in the afternoon trying to shrug away those hunger pangs, fatigue, and other difficulties? Well, it’s easier if you fill yourself with a hearty lunch. We suggest powering yourself with the lean protein you get with a couple slices of New York Village pizza. It not only tastes wonderful, but has a tremendous volume of B12 vitamins and protein from cured pepperoni, Italian sausage, and Canadian bacon.
Thwart Moodiness Once and for All
It’s also very easy to suffer the blues from an insufficient diet. You don’t necessarily have to consume tons of calories to fix the problem, though. Instead, you can restore a better mood with something light and palatable like a Tuscan Salad or bowl of Shrimp Scampi.
You Could Even Throw a Lunchtime Party at Work
Sometimes, work really absorbs all of our time and you can’t make it to come see us in person. That’s no problem, however. One way to reverse afternoon malaise is to have us come to you for lunch. Yes, you can use Russo’s catering service to feed you and your coworkers for a morale-boosting, authentic Italian feast.

It’s almost impossible to find someone who’s never tried pizza, and it’s an even more arduous task to find someone who doesn't enjoy it. No matter what your dietary choices might be, the joy that comes with a slice of cheesy goodness is universal. One of the best things about pizza is how customizable it is. With an abundance of toppings, cheeses, proteins, and more, there’s quite literally a style of pizza that’s fit for everyone. Just as varied as the toppings are how people consume this delicacy. This is the subject of the article that you’re currently reading.
