Marco Delgado
Founder & Head Chef
With 20+ years of culinary experience, Marco's passion for artisanal pizza started in his grandmother's kitchen in Naples. He's the creative force behind every signature recipe at Pizza factory.
Welcome to Pizza factory, Anaheim's beloved pizza factory where handcrafted flavors meet community spirit. We've been serving the finest pizzafactory creations since 2008 — fresh dough, bold toppings, and a passion for making every visit unforgettable for families across Southern California.
It all started in 2008 when founder Marco Delgado set up a humble pizza stand at the Anaheim Farmers Market. Armed with his grandmother's secret dough recipe and a brick oven he built himself, Marco's handcrafted pizzas quickly drew lines around the block. The pizza factory was born — not just as a restaurant, but as a community gathering place.
Today, Pizza factory operates from our flagship location at 1131 W Lincoln Ave, Anaheim, serving hundreds of families daily. Our commitment to fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and artisanal techniques remains unchanged — because great pizza starts with great care.
Every pizza starts with dough made from scratch each morning — no freezing, no shortcuts.
We partner with California farms to bring you the freshest produce and finest cheeses.
We give back to Anaheim through school fundraisers, local sponsorships, and food drives.
These principles guide every decision we make — from sourcing ingredients to serving your order.
Every pizza is handcrafted by our passionate team who take pride in what they create. Cooking is not a job here — it's a calling.
We refuse to compromise on freshness. From vine-ripened tomatoes to hand-pulled mozzarella, quality is non-negotiable.
We're more than a restaurant — we're a neighborhood institution that supports, celebrates, and gives back to Anaheim.
From the first slice to the last, every detail matters. We hold ourselves to the highest standards so you never have to worry.
From a farmers market stand to Southern California's go-to pizaa factory destination — here's how we got here.
Marco Delgado sets up the original pizza stand at the Anaheim Farmers Market using his grandmother's secret dough recipe and a hand-built brick oven. Lines form within weeks.
After three years of farmers market success, Pizza factory opens its first restaurant on W Lincoln Ave, Anaheim. The community response is overwhelming — we're fully booked from day one.
Pizza factory is named "Best Pizza in Orange County" by the OC Weekly and receives the California Restaurant Association's Excellence in Craft Award — a milestone that validates our commitment to quality.
We introduce our own delivery fleet and online ordering platform, bringing fresh handcrafted pizza to homes across Anaheim and surrounding communities faster than ever before.
A major renovation expands our kitchen capacity, adds a wood-fired oven station, and creates a dedicated catering wing to serve corporate events, weddings, and community gatherings across Southern California.
We celebrate a landmark milestone — over half a million handcrafted pizzas served. We launch our new seasonal menu with locally sourced California toppings and introduce our popular Pizzafactory loyalty rewards program.
Every great pizza factory runs on passionate people. Meet the talented individuals who make every slice worth savoring.
