In addition to pizza, we currently offer sandwiches on our homemade Italian bread rounds called moons, pasta, salads, soups, wraps, wings, calzones and strombolis. We are recognized for some of our popular menu items such as the Triple Bypass Pizza, Tree Hugger Pizza, Carcass Pizza, Cheesy Herb Sticks, and Silly Sweet Sticks.

As a child of Italian immigrants that came to United States in the late fifties, I began to work in my uncle's pizza shop in Mohawk, New York at the age of 15. I have been tied to this industry for over 30 years, and while it's hard to believe, this one tiny take out pizzeria has been training grounds for many friends and relatives that now spot the east coast with pizza shops from North Carolina to Vermont.

In the summer of 1983, and with youthful ambition, I had opened our first shop in my hometown of Little Falls, New York. A self made job... every summer... how great was that! Ed's Pizza Shop was opened leaving just enough time to teach my parents and younger brother how to toss pies before I returned to college at RIT. Ed's Pizza Place still operates today and is run by my parents.

Pizza Works currently owns and operates two locations, Ballston Spa, New York and Burnt Hills, New York. Pizza Works was established in 1988 in Ballston Spa and opened it's second location in Burnt Hills in 1991 primarily as take out pizzerias. In January of 2005, Pizza Works relocated it's Burnt Hills location out of a strip plaza and into it's own freestanding building. With added full service wait staff, Pizza Works has come to be known for great pizza and a great place for the whole family.
