Woodbridge residents and visitors are seeking refuge from the busyness of Northern Virginia in a family owned restaurant.
Forty-three years ago, Alex Kolovos opened Astoria Pizza.
His wife, Rita, now owns and runs the business.
“[Alex] always worked in restaurants back home in Greece, and then he moved to the states,” Rita Kolovos said. “His dream was to open his own place, and this is his own place.”
Located at 13436 Jefferson Davis Highway, the restaurant offers an array of items.
“Here, at Astoria Pizza, we specialize in our New York style pizza and our Gyro platters — they’re one of the best in town,” Manager Chris Gillam said.
Subs, pastas and salads are also available.
