Family owned and run D’Andreas Pizza has become the pizza

place of Cheers, where everybody knows your name.

The Saratoga based pizza store has been open for over 12-years, during which owner Rory Wilson saw the community grow along with his business. “The best aspect of this business for me is always being able to be a part of the community. I’ve gotten to know people over the last 13 years where I see them get married and have kids and now those kids come in and get pizza…it’s just a great feeling to see that and get to know people,” Wilson said. Wilson’s father Gregory Wilson was the first generation to run D’Andreas. Now operated by multigenerations, Rory Wilson’s wife, daughter and two-step daughters help the family business. “Its fantastic that you can count on your family in this day and age to be there for you and help you out,” Rory Wilson said. “I do have a great support system that you just can’t beat. I’m a very lucky man” Wilson thanks not only his father for the multi-generation run pizza place; he thanked Bob Fuller, Wilson’s former co-worker, and his family. “Overall it feels great. You always have your ups and downs but overall it’s a great feeling to be able to have family with you,” Wilson said.

D’Andreas is located on 33 Caroline Street and Route 9 in Wilton and can be reached at 518-584-3632. Their website can be reached at www.dandreaspizza.com.
