Over the years, Orlando has quickly become home to the nation’s second-largest university. In any major college city, the pizza joints are nothing short of ubiquitous. Ben Richardson, VP of Operations for Flipper’s Pizzeria, knew he had to set his pizza shop apart.

Though they opened their first Pizzeria in central Florida in 1987, Flipper’s was no exception to the rule when it came to competition. In 1995, a new chef was hired to expand the menu by adding “delicious, authentic and progressive recipes.”  Flipper’s uses only the freshest ingredients in their hand-tossed brick oven and specialty pizzas, like the Steak Diablo with fiery chipotle sauce and sirloin steak. Choose from toppings including smoked bacon, artichoke hearts, roasted peppers, Roma tomatoes, sweet or hot Italian sausage and much more. Even New Yorkers rave about Flipper’s Pizzeria!

Ben Richardson recently sat down to discuss his experience with his new restaurant POS system for the Pinnacle YouTube channel. Richardson stresses his appreciation for the superior customer service he enjoys, including on-site support. Never having used a point of sale system before, Richardson notes that the accountability provided over the use of handwritten tickets has made Flipper’s easier to manage. POSitouch has enabled the pizzeria to better compete, ensuring accuracy with customer orders which creates higher customer satisfaction overall. Flipper’s can now offer online ordering, and managers can control labor costs and track loss prevention far better than before. Richardson even notes that he loves that managers are able to go home to their families earlier thanks to the ease of collecting and analyzing a host of valuable information.

A well-known South Florida classic, Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza has been serving “pizza well done” since 2002. Anthony Bruno, founder and former owner of the popular Anthony’s Runway 84, set out on a mission to bring Brooklyn to South Florida with his proprietary 800-degree, coal-burning oven. Bruno explains, “We’ve introduced the ‘old world’ art of making pizza in a coal-fired oven and we’re happy to report that our customers can’t get enough of it.”

Anthony’s has developed a loyal following over the years, offering unique topping options such as arugula and prosciutto, and delectable specialties like the Eggplant Marino (named after Dan Marino’s favorite dish at Anthony’s). Other menu favorites include the coal oven roasted chicken wings served with caramelized onions and focaccia bread, a variety of coal oven sandwiches, and plenty of Italian soul food like broccoli rabe and sausage.

Due to Anthony’s instant popularity, many South Florida locations have since opened their doors. The success of the restaurant has recently led to the opening of restaurants in New York and Pennsylvania as well.
