The pizzeria was opened in 1965 by Italian immigrant Pietro DiPiazza. It was taken over by Pietro’s younger brother, Fred Di Piazza.[3] Fred passed ownership to his adopted son, Tony Di Piazza.[citation needed] Around 2005, Al Pawlowicz purchased the restaurant.[3] Following Pawlowicz’s death in 2010, the shop was closed for a year before being purchased by Eddie Twdroos.[4]
