Antonio “Tony” Lavigna is son of Italian immigrants Domenico & Grazia Lavigna. At an early age they noticed that Tony would rather watch cooking shows than cartoons so at 14 they began his culinary training with Franco Tarantino of Paolo’s in Myerstown where he learned the basics of pizza making. At 16 he went to work for the original Santino’s in Wyomissing. By the time Tony was 18 the Lavigna family purchased Venezia’s across the street from Reading High School. Always looking to challenge himself Tony moved to Salt Lake City, UT where he was an apprentice to Chef Walter Nassi at Il Sansovino. When he returned back home he began consulting on restaurant projects such as Casa Grande and 2 Giannotti’s restaurants. Tony was also the man behind Delicious, The Upland, & TLC Catering. For the last 4+ years Tony has worked at Paradise By the Slice as a manager and pizzaolo. Now Tony is proud to plant his flag in West Reading and looks forward to serving you, your family, & friends.
