A Slice House from the Bay Area’s master pizzaiolo, Tony Gemignani, is finally coming to Silicon Valley.
This will be his first Santa Clara County restaurant (if you don’t count the stand at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara). And one of his first franchise operations.
The eatery is moving into the Village at San Antonio center, which is home to the Showplace ICON Theatre, Hyatt Centric hotel, retail spaces and high-rise residences. Like his other locations, this one will offer a fast-casual setting where customers can buy the artisanal New York, Detroit, Sicilian, Grandma and California style pizzas by the slice or whole pie. Pasta, salads, wings and meatballs round out the menu. Local microbrews and natural wine will be featured.
Entrepreneur and franchisee Pritika Rajasanshi will operate this location.
Fremont native Gemignani, who mastered his pizza-tossing skills at Pyzano’s in Castro Valley, holds 13 world pizza champion titles. He launched the Slice Houses in San Francisco in 2010 and now owns 11 pizzerias in the Bay Area, Sacramento, Southern California, Las Vegas and beyond. This will be No. 12. And more franchises are coming to California and several other states.
He also owns Tony’s of North Beach, Tony’s Pizza Napoletana, Capo’s, Tony’s Coal-Fired Pizza and Pizza Rock.
Slice House Mountain View won’t open until later this spring, but the company has already announced that late-night hours are planned, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.
