The Original Haus of Pizza Story
The “Original House Of Pizza” was started in Long Beach Ca. in 1974. Hilde is German and after about a year, our clientele thought it would be a good idea to change the spelling of “House” to the German spelling”HAUS”. Both are pronounced the same so why not. When it came to making a logo, the Haus became a castle, Then one engineering buddies liked the circle idea (not really circles) over the castle. We added some four stars, one for each member of the family. Gizmo our Dog became a member of the family in 1996 and we added his star this year.
The “Haus”, in Long Beach was taken over by the city under eminent domain and we were forced to move. Best thing that ever happened to us and the business.
We founded our costa mesa location in January 1981. We couldn’t have a better clientele.
We thank you for making our business a success.---- Ted, Hilde and Rick Doria
