Description

Providence Pizza is an independent pizzeria concept built around serving several distinct regional pizza styles — New York, Detroit, Sicilian, and Grandma — each made with its own dough and, where applicable, its own oven so that “each style remains true to its roots.”⁸¹ The brand operates under the tagline “No Crust Left Behind,” reflecting a stated focus on crust quality across all its styles.¹ The Westport shop operates under the name “Providence by the Slice,” offering pizza by the slice as well as whole pies.⁵

The business was founded by brothers who grew up in Providence, Rhode Island, “a city renowned for its great food and pizza,” and set out to bring multiple hometown styles to the Kansas City area.⁸¹ Its original Grandview restaurant opened in a restored former Long John Silver’s building along Highway 71 south of Kansas City.⁹ The company has since grown to three Missouri locations (Grandview, Crossroads, and Westport) plus one in Oklahoma City.²

The Detroit-style pizza in particular has drawn strong local praise, with reviewers calling it among the best in the city, and the Grandview location maintains a high rating across hundreds of reviews.⁶⁴

Ownership and history

Providence Pizza was founded by brothers Luke and Aaron Salvatore, who were raised in Providence, Rhode Island.³⁸ An early Feast Magazine profile credits Luke Salvatore and his brothers with founding the restaurant, describing how they grew up immersed in the multiple pizza styles common to their hometown.⁸ The original Grandview location opened in 2014.⁹⁸

At founding, the concept (then styled “Providence Pizzeria Co.”) served three styles — New York (a 22-inch thin-crust pie in a gas brick oven), Sicilian (thick-crust rectangle baked in sheet pans), and Neapolitan (thin-crust in a French-made wood-fired oven).⁸ The current lineup is described as New York, Detroit, Sicilian, and Grandma styles, indicating the menu has evolved over time (notably adding Detroit-style).¹⁸ One source notes that two of the three current owners are brothers from Providence, suggesting a third partner has joined the ownership group. ⁴

Menu

Last verified: 2026-06-23 · Source: Providence Pizza delivery menus (DoorDash + Uber Eats, prices corroborated across both) · URL(s): see ¹⁰¹¹ · Confidence: Medium

Pizza style: Three house-made styles, made fresh daily — New York (round, thin, hand-tossed; 14” and 20”), Detroit (airy, pan-baked rectangle, small 8”×10”), and Sicilian (thick, sesame-encrusted rectangle, large 12”×17”). A gluten-free 12” crust is also available. Pizza is sold both by the slice and as whole pies; the current menu offers the same specialty lineup across all styles.¹⁰¹¹ (Note: the current official site and delivery menus list NY / Sicilian / Detroit — the “Grandma” style referenced elsewhere on this page no longer appears, indicating menu evolution.)¹⁰

Disputes

• Founding-era sources (“Providence Pizzeria Co.”) list NY/Sicilian/Neapolitan styles; current sources list NY/Detroit/Sicilian/Grandma. Treated here as menu evolution over time, not a contradiction.
• Some sources cite “two of three owners are brothers from Providence,” implying a third partner; the third owner is unnamed and unverified.
