Harpoholic: I look forward to meeting you. We are open Tues-Fri 12-2 and 5-8 and Saturday 5-8. Weekends are pretty crazy and your best bet is a lunch time visit. We just started lunch this week so it hasn't caught on yet. Walter

Thanks JustFuya. I have been blessed to have found pizza making in my family as a kid. It sustained me along with bakery work all through my music days. I have had the pizza, music, special education teacher, callings and now it all has come together in a way where can do the most good for people with disabilities. Walter

Those pizza look like the real deal to me. I'm gonna swing by. When it comes to pizza, I'm still 12 years old, can't get enough.

Thanks Sam. I will have to listen to those songs because I have no idea what they are :-)
Jlnx: Thanks. I learned it from my mother's family that came to NJ from Italy and working in some of the best pizzerias in my youth. I look forward to meeting you. Walter

I got to meet Walter and his wife today as well as try some of his pizza.
He even performed a Sonny Boy style song for me.
Walter is the real deal old school musician that doesn't compromise his principles for anyone or anything, and he plays a mean harp too!
What Walter and his wife are doing for
the disabled and the community
guarantees them a place in heaven.
As far as the pizza, it's the best authentic NY style pizza I have had in a long, long time!
I was born and raised on the east coast, so I know good pizza.
It's easily the best pizza in Reno/Sparks area.
Word gets around fast, so Walter is making a truck load of pizzas every week. He even got a single order while I was there for 52 pizzas, that's crazy!
If you come through Reno, definitely go see Walter and try his incredible made from scratch pizza!

John: It was great meeting you and thanks for the kind words! Music is a gift and I am thankful to have it and have learned from so many of the greats. We had a waiting line starting at 4:30 today outside the shop (we open at 5). The story in the newspaper helped with that and it brought in more people that serve the disabled and our network increases..... See you next time and your harp playing sounded darn good too. Walter
PS: I said no can do on that 50 pie order and explained we are a small mom/pop shop. He said he would set up a smaller one soon.

Walter, my name is Joe, but that's ok!
I am not good with names either.
Didn't hear that part of the 50 pizza order, but I am happy for you and your wife, you both deserve it!

Joe: Sorry about that. My name memory is pretty much at capacity with all that is going on right now. See you! Walter
