Pizza Joint Famous For ‘Now THAT’S Italian,’ Bids Farewell

A popular Hudson Valley pizza shop is suddenly set to close.

Always sad to see restaurants closing their doors here in the Hudson Valley area, and when the restaurant is a pizza joint, it's even sadder. We're fortunate to have many great pizza shops throughout the area but let's be honest, nobody wants to lose a pizza spot :(

Known for their catchphrase, "Now THAT'S Italian!", Pacini's Pizza located at 2554 South Ave, in Wappingers Falls, NY has served the community for 5 years. The business took to social media to let its customers know that the business would be shutting its doors due to "unforeseen circumstances beyond their control" on Friday, March 1.

They shared,

We regretfully announce that we are closing down our operations as of Friday, March 01 due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control; however as much as it pains us since serving all customers during those times being here has created fantastic memories these few short years so memorable. Well will miss being a part of the community that had welcome us with open arms. Thank you to all.

I remember the grand opening of Pacini's Pizza back in 2019. The place always had great pizza.
