Nearly two years after a devastating fire, Rosa Rosa Pizzeria is set to reopen near Franklin & Marshall College in early October.

The pizza shop at 1040 Harrisburg Pike was damaged in a November 2016 fire that began in an oven chimney.

Owner Angelo DiSomma oversaw the renovations to the restaurant, which took longer than expected because of the work required to bring the older building up to current building code.

DiSomma said Rosa Rosa Pizzeria will have a larger variety of Italian dishes but will otherwise have the same menu as before the fire.

The footprint of the restaurant remains unchanged, but the dining area has been transformed into a single space with larger tables, doing away with a previous smaller room. There is seating for around 70.

During the time Rosa Rosa was closed, its liquor license was sold, so it will operate only as BYOB, DiSomma said.

DiSomma is majority owner of the restaurant, which he will operate with childhood friend Caleb Rudy. The restaurant was founded by DiSomma’s father, Giovanni, who died in 2008.
