Orsi's Italian Bakery & Pizzeria

The overview

Little Italy's bread since 1919

Orsi's has been the heart of Omaha's Little Italy since 1919, a bakery, deli, and pizzeria the Orsi family has run for over a century. The brick ovens turn out crusty Italian bread by the loaf all morning and hand-shaped pizzas — sold by the pre-ordered sheet — in the afternoon, alongside imported cheeses and meats.

A neighborhood cornerstone in the Old World sense, Orsi's still bakes the bread that Omaha's Italian community has cooked from for generations.

A signal you can check.

This is a dated award record, published by The Centurion Awards after Orsi's Italian Bakery & Pizzeria cleared the 2025 evaluation for its market and category. It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — the criteria are public, only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. For everything else — hours, bookings, live reviews — go straight to the business itself.
