Meet the Business Owner: Tony G.
Born and raised on an apricot and cherry orchard farm in Fremont, California, Gemignani's childhood was filled with boisterous, family dinners. Growing up, he spent much of his time cooking alongside his mother, who would only use the fruits and vegetables that came straight from the family farm. This culinary philosophy of utilizing only the freshest ingredients has stayed with Tony throughout his life and is reflected throughout his menus.
Gemignani has had a passion for the pizza industry since 1991. His humble beginnings began at his brother's acclaimed Pyzano's Pizzeria in Castro Valley. Fresh out of high school, Tony took on the task of a pizza thrower and soon began entertaining the restaurant crowds with his wily tricks. A few years later, he entered into his first pizza throwing competition in Las Vegas and quickly became the top pizza thrower in the world.
