Tony Gemignani’s Slice House coming to Menlo Park
Slice House by Tony Gemignani, the Bay Area’s celebrity pizzaiolo, is coming soon to downtown Menlo Park.
The restaurant is listed on the Slice House website as coming to 775 and 777 Santa Cruz Ave., at the location of the former Pet Place pet supply store, which closed in 2020.
Construction is expected to begin in a couple of weeks, and the goal is to open the restaurant in around seven months, according to on-site workers.
The fast-casual pizza chain’s menu includes craft pizza, fresh pastas, beer, wings, salad and more. Gemignani is the chef behind Tony’s Pizza Napoletana in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood and is a 13-time World Pizza Champion.
Additional new locations are also in the works at 2523 Sand Creek Road, #120, in Brentwood, and at 1948 First St. in Livermore, according to the Slice House website.
Other Bay Area locations are in Walnut Creek, San Francisco, San Leandro, Belmont, Millbrae, Milpitas, Santa Clara and Mountain View.
