For several years now it has been my husband’s dream to open a restaurant.  This is something I never wanted to start up.  I know many restaurant owners and have found it is a huge commitment of time and money.  Finally last year, I gave in and allowed my husband to begin to pursue his dream…..I just had no idea that he would actually follow through.  

After months of looking for the perfect location he signed a lease at Levis Commons, and a month after that agreement, the doors to Andrew Z’s Sportz Pizzeria, will open….this weekend. 

The past month has been very trying.  Besides working his regular job, my husband is putting in hours on end at the restaurant.  I, in return have picked up all the responsibilities at our house plus have been helping out at the pizzeria.  

But even though we are both exhausted, I have to say I have learned so much about the restaurant business.  My favorite part was probably the food sampling.  The chef would make all the items on the menu several times until he felt he perfected them.  I have to say the pizza is unlike anything I have ever ate, and the hot subs are another one of my favorite items.

I know this new venture for our family will change a lot of things … well get less sleep, be paying more bills and have less time as a family …. But my husband is living his dream, and I guess the worst is behind us.

Andrew Z’s Sportz Pizzeria’s Grand opening is this Friday and Saturday from 5pm-2am at Levis Commons.  It will be a big party complete with live bands, games for the kids and of course pizza.
