Building upon the original Benedito's persona, “Marconi’s” represents the wiser, inventive side of Benny. This was chosen for his love of the water, sailing (a Marconi rig is the standard mast layout on a sailboat), as well as his thirst for knowledge and excitement for Guglielmo Marconi, an inventor responsible for the progress of the radio.

Benny Marconi’s is located in the heart of a quickly growing downtown in Roanoke, Va. We opened in the summer of 2012 as our 1st expansion out of Blacksburg. The growth of the Star City’s downtown has been amazing to watch and we will continue to provide quality ingredients and a fun atmosphere to everyone excited to eat slices of pizza “as big as your head”.
