Miamisburg has a new, locally owned and independent pizza shop, and it moved into space vacated nearly 18 months ago by a national pizza chain.

Napoli's Pizza opened Nov. 14, at 718 N. Heincke Road in Miamisburg. A Little Caesars pizza shop abruptly shut down in that space in May 2018 after operating there for six years.

Napoli’s Pizza co-founder Mensur Demnika said he saw a need for a pizza place that also offers other Italian specialties in the Miamisburg area.

The restaurant, which is for carryout and delivery only and has no seating, offers its signature New York-style pizza, but its menu also includes calzones, stromboli, sub sandwiches, garlic rolls and baked pasta dishes such as lasagna, manicotti, ravioli, ziti and spaghetti. Desserts such as tiramisu and cannoli  are also available.
