About Tony's La Pizzeria Tony's La Pizzeria is a locally owned family business that has been making pizza longer than anyone in Waterloo or Cedar Falls. The location has changed several times; we now reside in beautiful downtown Cedar Falls on Main Street. We have been serving the Cedar Valley for over sixty five years. While many things have changed, one thing has not: our commitment to serving the highest quality products to our customers. Tony's started on Sycamore Street in 1958 as a simple pizzeria, and we are still making the same fine pizza today. The dough and sauce are still made fresh on the premises every day and we hand‑trim the Iowa-grown pork that we use to grind our fresh sausage. We make things from scratch, from salad dressings to sauces, to the vegetables we cut and prepare each day. We think it tastes far better than anything that comes out of a package: we think that our customers can taste the difference, and we think they deserve fresh, wholesome food. We seek out the finest ingredients and are committed to “Buy Fresh, Buy Local.” We strive to buy fresh seasonal vegetables from local growers whenever possible. #J-18808-Ljbffr
