PizzeRizzo Concept Art & Construction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios: New Restaurant Coming to Muppets Courtyard

Hi everyone!

A few days back, we were at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and concept art had been posted for the upcoming PizzeRizzo counter service restaurant in the Muppets Courtyard (it replaces the former Toy Story Pizza Planet Location). The restaurant is scheduled to open sometime this fall. I photographed both the concept art – which is rich in detail – as well as the construction on the building. I’m hoping the pizza will be upgraded from Toy Story Pizza Planet, that was never my favorite pizza on property. I certainly think the atmosphere will be more of my taste over the former restaurant incarnation. Here is a look at the concept art and construction!

First, a couple of construction photos before diving into the concept art.

The same concept art is on several areas of the wall.

Here is our video, and keep reading for photos!

PizzeRizzo is owned by Rizzo the Rat.

Rizzo’s Deluxe Supreme Banquet Hall – it’s a real classy joint.

Heckler Tomato Paste is noted on the water tower.

The city’s top rated pizza.

It’s hard to read everything here, but I look forward to all the details when the restaurant opens.

PizzeRizzo – You’ve got a banquet, we’ve got the room.

No parking, no standing, no stopping, no kidding!

The Muppets presence is not only expanding in Disney’s Hollywood Studios this fall, but at the Magic Kingdom with a live show in Liberty Square called The Muppets Present… Great Moments in American History. Here are a few more construction shots from PizzeRizzo from this past weekend.

The outside is starting to look very much like the concept art here.
