Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana has brought back its seasonal Patata Rustica available now through the end of December at all 17 locations, according to a press release.

The pizza is in its second year on the menu. It features seasoned potatoes, bacon and a blend of Asiago, mozzarella and Pecorino Romano cheeses. The pie is finished with Frank Pepe's signature olive oil and served atop the pizzeria's iconic coal-fired crust.

"The Patata Rustica is quickly becoming a new tradition, inspired by my grandfather's legacy of bringing people together with comforting food made from the finest ingredients," Jennifer Bimonte-Kelly, granddaughter of Frank Pepe, said in the press release. "We're looking forward to bringing it back this fall, and we hope our guests enjoy it as much as we do."

Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana has 17 locations in the Northeast. The brand is based in New Haven, Connecticut.
