Americans have been in love with pizza for more than a century now. The first pizzeria in the USA was opened in 1905, later becoming the Pizza Hall of Fame due to its special status. Lombardi's pizzeria is located at 32 Spring Street on the corner of Mott Street in the Nolita neighborhood in the borough of Manhattan, New York City.

The name of the company founder was Gennaro Lombardi. He opened a grocery store in 1897. and it was the start of his business. He helped the workers from local factories a lot by selling tomato pies wrapped in paper and tied with a string - it was always a great lunch for them. Lombardi received his license to start a pizzeria only in 1905. He found lots of loyal clients, who would always return to his place and enjoy Italian food in the first American pizzeria. Every true pizza lover is to visit the American pizza birth place or at least know the name of the restaurant.
