Bringing people together with New York style pizza is the passion of 3 Corners

3 Corners Pizza offers New York style

FOX 13's Jason Wright takes us to a pizza spot on Water Street that promises flavors of New York.

TAMPA - Chef Bert Waldron’s 3 Corners Pizza can be found at 813 Water Street, but his heart for the restaurant is still in New York City. His desire was to create the flavors and tastes of New York right here in Tampa.

What they're saying:

"We call it New York style ‘cause they’re big and they’re bold in flavor," said Waldron when speaking about his pizza creations.

Each pizza is 18 inches and crispy along the edge but soft enough to fold and eat just like back home.

"I want them to experience like they’re takin’ a step into New York," admitted Waldron of his customers. "When you come into 3 Corners, I would expect and I’m hoping that you would make memories."

The menu offers the pizza lover a selection of savory offerings from the normal cheese pizza base to the customized CC-Pops which brings out the spicy flavors of Calabrian Chilis paired with Italian sausage and pepperoni.

They also produce specialty pizzas each month.

"This month we have a pesto-based pizza which is really, really, really bomb," said Waldron. "It has balsamic glazed onions that we sauté, some grilled chicken, tomatoes, and we make the pesto in house."

The restaurant isn’t just about pizza though. The menu offers sub sandwiches, salads and wings as well.

"A lot of people love our wings. We have four to five different flavors of them," said Waldron.

They are right across from Benchmark Arena, so they’re a natural gathering spot for hockey fans and concert-goers, and that was part of the plan all along.

"Pizza takes you back to your childhood," said Waldron, "Pizza is something that I know a lot of people come and gather for."
