PizzaTown USA has been in the same location since 1959, and was run by the same family for most of that time. The new owners have kept the same recipes that made this place a local institution. I am happy to report that the pizza crust is the same thin, bubbly crust with the same tomato sauce. It is delicious! If you are a fan of thin-crust pizza, you will love PizzaTown USA.
