Marco’s Pizza franchise owner Chris Ciccarelli said his team is unleashing the nation’s “best pizza” to residents in the High Desert and San Bernardino County. Located in the ALDI shopping center near the corner of Main Street and Escondido Avenue in Hesperia, Marco’s Pizza has officially opened, Ciccarelli told the Daily Press.

On Tuesday, the doors to Marco’s Pizza were open, with employees hard at work creating specialty pizzas, giving out free slices to customers and selling whole pizzas. “It's great to be in Hesperia and we're ready to meet our new neighbors,” said Ciccarelli, who oversees the store with his wife, Sezin. “Marco’s Pizza was named best pizza a few years back and we recently got named again, so we’re pretty excited.”
