My Story

My name is Garrett, and I grew up in San Carlos, CA. Our local pizza place, Speederia Pizzeria, is what solidified my love for New York Style pizza. That love sat quietly in the background until 2024, when I went to New York for an all-you-can-eat pizza festival with over 40 pizzerias, including some of the best pizza in the world: Di Fara, Lucali, Sally's and John's of Bleecker Street. Having tried the best of the best, I was inspired to make my own pizza at home.

I started experimenting with recipes, methods and techniques, learning everything from YouTube and forums. Slowly but surely the pizzas kept getting better, so I started making them for friends and family. To get more experience, I worked at Neighborhood Pizza Guy for five months to really hone the craft and the process.

Which brings me to today. I'm launching Scuf's Pizza, a private pizzaiolo (a pizza maker) for parties and events. I come to your home or venue with my gas oven and homemade dough, and make pizza for your entire party. My goal is to bring incredible New York Style pizza to the Bay Area, and it all starts with one event at a time.
