The Craft & Crust concept was created in 2016 to honor the traditions of Rotolo's Pizzeria while embracing the creativity of a scratch-kitchen approach. It keeps the same authentic sauce and dough while offering a diverse menu, along with more than 30 beers on tap. Rotolo's Pizzeria itself began in 1996 in Baton Rouge, opened by founder Mitch Rotolo, and grew into a franchise with locations across the South. The kitchens make original dough fresh daily at each location, pair it with homemade sauces and freshly prepared vegetables, and put thought into the recipes, the drink menu, and the environment so that the restaurant is a place to unwind and refuel rather than a quick stop.

Rotolo's Craft & Crust of Ruston has built a solid reputation among the customers it has served, and an established track record reflected in its large base of customer reviews.
