Ohio Valley Yellow Pages Ohio Valley Businesses: DaLonzo's, Your Home Away From Home Cookin DaLonzo's, Your Home Away From Home Cookin ================================================================================ admin on 11 May, 2008 08:50:00 We are a family owned and operated restaurant, specializing in, but not limited to, Italian cuisine. We have a large menu, so be sure to check out the Menu page! We started in business back in 1982 when we opened our first pizza shop in downtown Wellsville. In 1982, when Crucible Steel closed it's doors, a new door was opened for the DaLonzo brothers. Joe, Rock and John, along with their wives, decided to open a family pizza shop. As the years passed, business flourished. It was then, Joe's youngest son Nick, attending Ohio State University, decided to leave school to help his father in the family business. Though his life plans were altered, that didn't bring Nick down, for he would now get the chance to experience his one true passion...that of cooking. Business was booming but came to an abrupt halt in early 1988. DaLonzo's Pizza suffered a major fire, putting the shop out of business. The brothers decided not to reopen. Nick returned to school, with the love and support of his wife Jacki. He graduated from Jefferson Technical College with a degree in Xray Technology. Though a great achievement, he always kept the business in the back of his mind. He spent many years planning his return...planning the rebirth of DaLonzo's Pizza. Ten long years went by and in 1998 Nick opened his own shop. DaLonzo's Pizza had found a new home at the bottom of Rt. 45 in Wellsville, the site of the old Dairy Queen. His father Joe agreed to help him in any way that he could. Jacki was behind him all the way and now a new addition to the family was there to add a helping hand also. His son Nicholas. They never would have guessed the response of the community. Carrying the DaLonzo's Pizza name also meant carrying the DaLonzo's Pizza reputation. That he did and then some. In 2001, an addition was added on to the shop. This addition would open a whole new door of opportunity. A full line Italian restaurant lay in his hands. With some old family recipes and a lot of recipes of his own, Nick changed the name to simply, DaLonzo's. The business would establish it's place in the community of Wellsville. Nick's only regrets are the passing of his Mother and Grandmother. They were his true critics. They were the ones who inspired him in the art of cooking in the first place.DaLonzo's Restraurant 525 Main Street Wellsville, OH 43968 Telephone: (330) 532-0900 Email: onthehill@dalonzos.com If you are traveling from out of town, click HERE for maps and directions.
