After more than 30 this years, Ohio pizzeria closes storefront for good

Following more than three decades of service, an Ohio pizzeria has permanently shuttered one of its two restaurants.

Approximately an hour east of Columbus in Zanesville, Picnic Pizza Italian Eatery has closed the doors of its Downtown Zanesville restaurant, which was located at 1250 Maple Ave.

Picnic’s Pizza’s other eatery, which is located at 3575 Maple Ave in Zanesville’s Colony Square Mall, will remain open.

“We are so thankful for being able to serve our customers at the Italian Eatery since 1992, but now we want to be able to spend more time with our families.  Maybe even do a little traveling,” owners Nino Russo and Vinnie Buzzetta said in a joint statement. “We are still serving our original pizza products at the Colony Square Mall shop, and hope to see all of our loyal Italian Eatery customers there.  This is not good-bye, it’s just time to slow down a bit.”

Picnic Pizza serves New York-style pies, pasta, pizza rolls, subs and salads.
