Yonkers Pizza Co. in Preston Center opened late last year as a place where owner Tony Avezzano, son of Dallas Cowboys’ late special teams coach Joe Avezzano, could share his family's Italian recipes. He signed a lease for this space in fall 2019 and finally opened the doors a full year later because of COVID-19. “Business, especially foot traffic, hasn’t been what I expected at first, but we’re fighting through it, trying to keep the lights on and, with fingers crossed, we come out of this and continue to grow,” says Avezzano of opening when many restaurants around his have closed.
