A Family Tradition of Flavor. Discover Our Story. Not Just Pizza — A Way of Life
Since 1976, when a family of skilled bakers from Carini, Sicily, opened their first Italian restaurant in Hanover, Pennsylvania, Genova’s To Go has been more than just a place to eat — it’s been a part of family traditions and cherished memories. Now led by the third generation, we honor our heritage by staying true to the quality and care that our family name represents. Every dish carries the love and legacy passed down through the years, bringing the authentic taste of Italy to every table and making each visit feel like coming home.
In 1976, founder Salvatore Marciano and his wife, fueled by a passion for authentic Italian flavors and exceptional service, opened their first store in Hanover, PA, eager to share their love of Italian cuisine with the community.
To share their passion for fresh Italian cuisine, Genova’s To Go expanded to Hampstead, MD, where we proudly continue to serve the community with the same commitment to quality and flavor.
As the area grows and families seek more dining options, Genova’s To Go proudly opened a new location in Manchester, MD to better serve the community.
In 2006, Genova’s To Go proudly expanded further into Carroll County with the opening of our Westminster location, bringing our authentic Italian flavors closer to the community.
After 23 years, Genova’s proudly reopens in Hanover, PA!
Genova's To Go Hampstead opens new location in Roberts Field Shopping Center.
For eight consecutive years, we’ve been thrilled to be honored as Carroll County’s Best Pizza — a testament to our commitment to quality and flavor at Genova’s To Go!
We proudly opened our fourth Carroll County location in Eldersburg, conveniently located just off Liberty Road to better serve our community.

A Historic Moment for Genova’s To Go
On Sunday, June 7, Mayor of Hampstead Christopher Nevin presented the Genova’s To Go Family with an official Proclamation declaring June 7 as Genova’s To Go Day in the Town of Hampstead.
The proclamation honors Genova’s To Go for its dedication to the community and for being a proud fixture in Hampstead for 48 years. This recognition celebrates decades of service, tradition, and the deep connection between the Genova’s family and the Hampstead community.
A milestone worth celebrating — and a legacy that continues to grow.
We’ve added — and continue to add — delicious new options to our menu, including gluten-free personal pizzas, boneless wings, BBQ pizza, and boxed lunches, perfect for work meetings or school events!
