The Bayport pizza joint is undergoing renovations by new owners after local favorite Tony's Pizzeria closed in October.

BAYPORT, NY —Tony's Pizzeria in Bayport closed last month, but new owners are working to reopen the site as The Pizzeria, a second location of their Lake Grove pizzeria in the Smith Haven Mall. The pizza restaurant at 606 Montauk Hwy. was undergoing renovations Friday as it gears up for an opening. No official opening date has been released.
Tony's issued a goodbye statement on their Facebook page:

We would like to thank everyone who showed us tremendous support over the past 22 years and helped our business grow. You are all our second family, and words can’t express our gratitude.
