About Little Joe's Pizza®
Our Rich Family History
Little Joe's Pizza's original owner, Joe, was in business for 26 years. In 1973, Alfredo Rodriguez, our father, bought this business over an afternoon conversation and a handshake. Together with our mother, Gloria, he strove to make this "their place." Known to everyone he met as "Fred," our father, was the kind of man who could talk to anyone. He welcomed people from all walks of life into his restaurant and made sure they left feeling like family. He was a dedicated family man and it was his dream to make this business a place where his family all could work and be together. He was an incredibly hard worker and made his work look effortless. Fred passed away in 1995, but not before seeing his dream come true.
Continuing The Family Legacy
We, his children: Antoinette, Patricia, Marcela, and Alfredo, have all worked and participated in the business at different stages in our lives. We have walked alongside each other, our cousins, and people that become lifelong friends. All three of Fred's daughters met their husbands working here and our family grew. His grandchildren grew up here. Now, 44 years later, this place has been home to four generations of the Rodriguez family. Little Joes is now being run by two of us, Patty and Fred. We make it our mission to remain a welcoming family, friendly, humble neighborhood spot. It is so important to us that the legacy our father left behind is preserved. Times change, but we work to ensure that our place stays the same. A familiar go-to place that people can come with their families and enjoy some good, old school homemade food.
