Grimaldi's Pizzeria has released a celebratory menu as the chain hits the 20th anniversary milestone of its expansion outside New York. Beginning on March 7, the brand will launch its Celebration! menu, according to a press release.

"Celebrating 20 years is a key milestone, so we knew we needed to do something equally special to celebrate," Pam Nedwetzky, Grimaldi's director of marketing. "We challenged our culinary manager Hector Godinez to come up with a never-before seen pizza. Marrying the traditional New York preparation of an all-beef hot dog with mustard, sauerkraut and onions on a pizza crust made perfect sense to celebrate this occasion. While it might seem like a strange combination to some, we wanted to create a menu item combining two iconic New York staples — pizza and hotdogs."

The Celebration menu includes the NY Hot Dog Pizza; an Arugula Snap Salad; Confetti Cheesecake, Coconut Cream Cheesecake; the Bridge Board, a charcuterie plate and special cocktails Peroni Coney Island Spritz and The Boulevard made with Tincup whiskey, Cinzano sweet vermouth and Campari.

The menu is available for dine-in and takeout from March 7-June 6.

Grimaldi's first location outside of New York opened in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Feb. 14, 2003. The company currently has more than 40 locations across 11 states.
