General Description

In 1960, Italian immigrants Pat DeLuca and his brother-in-law Jim opened the Willow Bar, a neighborhood bar for nearby factory workers, in Lansing, Michigan, but the pizza they served became so popular the business eventually switched its name to DeLucas's Restaurant and Pizzeria.When Jim retired in 1977, the transition to family eatery was already under way as word spread about the pies, which featured hearty sauce, a medium-thick crust, and generous amounts of cheese and toppings. "When they opened the business, ethnic foods were just starting to be popular, and pizza was only a part of what they offered," says John DeLuca, the son of Pat, whom owns the pizzeria with his brothers, Chuck and Tom. "But years of perseverance and a dedication to the consistency of the food worked well.
