Valley pizza shops experience rush of orders for New Year's Eve
Mahoning Valley - Pizza shops across the Valley have been filling hundreds of orders throughout New Year's Eve this year.
New Year's Eve is one of the biggest pizza nights of the year.
Austintown Wedgewood co-owner, Filomena Ricconi explains that 2021 was hit even harder due to restaurants such as Aqua Pazzo, Alberini's and The Federal closing for the holiday causing more people to stay home.
"It's probably because a lot of restaurants had to cancel their reservations. So what it's doing is forcing a lot more people to stay at home and we're getting a lot more of those family orders," Ricconi said.
Wedgewood Pizza will be closed on New Year's Day and on Sunday, but will reopen on Monday just in time for the big game between the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers.
