In 1954 Buddy opened a small pizzeria with a full menu that included his unique spaghetti sauce.  50 plus years later the sauce has become a favorite of many Cincinnatians.

Buddy’s pizza gained a fast westside following. But LaRosa’s was different from other pizzerias. His menu included hearty salads with his own unique salad dressings (Italian and Creamy Garlic) to go with his pizza, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, ravioli and other Italian specialties.
