AUSTINTOWN A pizza restaurant that has been a favorite for many Valley fans for years has expanded its reach into Austintown.

Uptown Pizza has opened its new location at 1651 South Racoon, right across the street from the township’s iconic Wedgewood Pizza.

By late Friday afternoon, the "OPEN" sign was on in the window, and the parking lot of the new Uptown was jammed with cars and trucks of customers waiting to pick up their favorite pizza.

Uptown, known for its six-inch “Little Joe” pizza, also operates locations along Belmont Avenue in Liberty and Market Street in Boardman.
