How Sally O’Neal’s Pizza Hotline Got Started

Built on Family, Pizza, and Community

Sally O’Neal’s Pizza Hotline began nearly 40 years ago in South Tampa at 1319 South Howard Avenue. It started as a small family restaurant with one goal: to serve good food that people could enjoy together. Sally and her family loved pizza and saw a need for a place where folks could get great slices, pasta, and salads made with care. From day one, they focused on doing things the right way—simple recipes, real ingredients, and food made fresh every day.

Pat and Judith O’Neal had an opportunity to spend some quality time with celebrity chef Burt Wolf on a recent vacation.
