Straight From New York Pizza Will Open a Pizzeria on Hawthorne - Eater Portland
"Straight From New York Pizza has been serving its floppy, New York style slices to the Belmont bar crowd for a few years, and now it’s getting a new location, just a half mile away on 37th and Hawthorne. The late-night pizzeria is opening its new spot in the space previously inhabited by Pizza Oasis, which closed earlier this summer. The team is aiming to open by August 26, to serve slices and beer during the busy Hawthorne Street Fair. The space itself won’t change too much, but it will be more than just a coat of paint, manager Tommy Lang says. He and a few of the staff actually worked at Pizza Oasis in years past, and are eager to restore the location to its heydays, catering to neighborhood workers and passersby with quality pizza by the slice and a solid tap-list. And for anyone worrying, the pinball machines “aren’t going anywhere.”" - Alex Frane
