Pizza Land
Pizza Land is an American owned pizzeria located at 260 Belleville Turnpike in North Arlington, New Jersey, which featured in the opening credits of The Sopranos.[1] Additionally, in Law & Order episode 10.6, "Marathon" (1999), a pizza box from the restaurant was used by a suspect to transport and conceal firearms.[2] The pizzeria was opened in 1965 by Italian immigrant Pietro Di Piazza, who died in 2019. It was owned by Frank's son Tony Di Piazza . Tony and Debra Hunkele always had the pizzeria packed but later on sold to pizza maker Al Pawlowicz until his death in 2010, who purchased the restaurant from DiPiazza's son.[3] The store is now owned by Eddie Twdroos.[4]
