They had several places around town but the one I used to go to was on Byrne Road just South of Dorr Street. If I remember correctly it was either next to, or very close to Jameson's Stereo.
What was the name of this pizza place???

No, it was a small pizza shop.

I seem to think it was Mario's or something like that, but I can't recall for sure. This would have been back in the late 60's.

Sorry, Shamrock44: I know a lot about the recent history of pizza in Toledo, but I know little if anything before the mid-1980s.

You might be able to poke around in the Google News Archives for The Blade and find an ad or something.

Call Jamieson and ask him, he's been there a long time and might know the answer.

Linecrosser, I haven't been over that way in a long time & didn't know Jamieson's was still there - thanks for the heads up

It was Mario's Pizza Den.

Jamieson's is not in that area and hasn't been for years. They are on Monroe St. near Sofo's Market.
Pizza Inn?
(shot in the dark, just trying to help...)
I thought Mario's might be it but wasn't sure - thanks ilovetoledo for verifying, and thanks to everyone else for the suggestions !! Lots of good old pizza places I forgot all about !

Jamieson's might have moved but he's still in business and might be able to say what the name of the pizza place that was next door to his OLD location.

Definitely Mario's, they had a couple locations in town. I recall another in the south end near South and Airport Highway. I remember the cardboard-like crust.

That's the one Nativeoftoledo - I thin it was a frozen crust as I recall seeing them make it.
