Cheesesteaks have departed from the corner of Pioneer Avenue and Lake Tahoe Boulevard, but homemade pizzas have arrived to take their place.

Anthony Dana opened The Pizzeria on Memorial Day weekend after closing Tony’s Cheesteaks two months earlier. He decided to stop serving cheesesteaks and open up a pizza place again.

“I guess it’s more of an East Coast thing,” Dana said. “California just wasn’t eating enough cheesesteaks.”



Pizza-making isn’t something new for Dana – he has 21 years of experience under his belt. He previously owned Anthony’s Pizza from 1995 to 2001 on the South Shore.

“I enjoy what I do, so it’s real easy to be here all day,” Dana said.



The menu includes appetizers, 10- and 14-inch pizzas with more than 20 toppings to choose from, Italian pasta dinners, an East Coast-style calzone and gourmet pizzas.

Dana is offering lunch specials from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. Customers can either grab a large slice of pizza, soda and salad for $6, or the pasta special with garlic bread, salad and a soda for $8.50.

The pasta special rotates, so customers can have lasagna, stuffed shells, baked ziti, or butternut squash ravioli depending on the day.

Customers can dine in or order take out.

The Pizzeria is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, and it’s at 3940 Lake Tahoe Blvd., next to Alpen Sierra Coffee and Naked Fish. For more information, call (530) 544-7827.
