We are thrilled to introduce you to one of our esteemed tenants, Santino Pizzo, the passionate owner and operator of Pizzo’s Pizzeria & Wine Bar. Santino has been storing with us at Smart Self Storage of Eastlake since 2023, utilizing our facility to manage equipment inventory and store seasonal displays for his flourishing pizza business.

A Slice of Santino's Story

Santino Pizzo is a true artisan in the culinary world, specializing in creating artisanal stone oven-baked pizzas. His dedication to pairing pizza with the perfect wine is unmatched, and his vibrant personality brings joy and warmth every time he visits our facility. With a keen eye for detail and a deep love for traditional Italian flavors, Santino curates menus that delight the taste buds and create memorable dining experiences for his patrons.

Why We’re The Perfect Fit

Our storage facility's strategic location between Santino’s two bustling pizza locations—The Shops at San Miguel Ranch and Millenia Otay Ranch—makes it the ideal spot for his storage needs. Santino has often praised the cleanliness and accessibility of our units, which offer him a convenient and cost-effective solution compared to traditional warehouse options. This proximity allows him to efficiently manage his equipment and seasonal displays, ensuring his restaurants always operate smoothly.

The Joy of Having Santino as a Customer

Santino’s visits to our office are always a highlight, as he brings an infectious energy and a passion for his craft that is truly inspiring.

He treats his employees like family and his customers like old friends, making every interaction a delightful experience.

A Personal Experience with Pizzo’s Pizzeria & Wine Bar

Sarah Taylor, the manager of Smart Self Storage of Eastlake, recently had the pleasure of dining with her family at Pizzo’s Millenia Otay Ranch location. She was captivated by the ambiance and the meticulous attention to detail that Santino brings to his restaurant. Her meal featured a fresh beet salad with roasted beets, mascarpone, grapefruit, arugula, pistachio brittle, and balsamic honey, paired with a Margherita pizza that transported her straight to Italy. Each pizza at Pizzo’s is made with imported 00 flour and a secret organic San Marzano tomato sauce, cooked at over 700°F for a perfect rustic, light, thin crust.

Celebrating Community Impact

We admire Santino’s passion and his significant impact on the Eastlake community. Pizzo’s Pizzeria & Wine Bar is a hub of activity, offering specials like Margarita Mondays, Wine Wednesdays, and Happy Hour from Monday through Thursday, 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. We are grateful for Santino’s loyalty and his continued presence at Smart Self Storage of Eastlake.
