About Us
Welcome to Deno’s Pizzeria in Lake Oswego
Deno’s Pizzeria is a local favorite in Lake Oswego, known for fresh, handmade pizza and a strong connection to the community. Located in the Lake Grove neighborhood, Deno’s Pizzeria has been part of the Lake Oswego community since the early 1980s and has been locally owned and operated by the Valentine family since 1997. Our family has raised our children here, and today, three generations work side by side in the restaurant.
Our warm, friendly atmosphere brings together families, students, and neighbors from across Lake Oswego. It’s the kind of place where locals gather, and where both guests and staff feel at home.
At Deno’s Pizzeria, we take pride in the people behind the counter as much as the food we serve. Many of our team members are local students and family, and they are a big part of what makes Deno’s such a special place in Lake Oswego. Their dedication shows in the service our customers know and appreciate.
We’re committed to quality in everything we do. Our hand-tossed dough and house-made sauces are prepared fresh daily, and we focus on consistency, great service, and pizza our Lake Oswego community can count on. Whether you know us as Deno’s Pizzeria or Denos Pizzeria, we’re proud to be a trusted name for pizza in Lake Oswego.
Community involvement has always been a high priority at Deno’s Pizzeria. As a locally owned restaurant in Lake Oswego, we are proud to support our community through annual school fundraisers, partnerships with local high schools, and ongoing support for education. We also provide free pizza gift certificates to local elementary school reading specialists to help encourage students to build strong reading habits.
Since 1997, Deno’s Pizzeria has hosted an annual December charitable event, the Angel Tree, benefiting the Community Transitional School and helping ensure houseless children in the Lake Oswego area have a happy holiday season. Supporting local families has always been an important part of who we are.
We also partner with The Asher House by featuring adoptable dogs on our pizza boxes, helping connect them with loving homes throughout the Lake Oswego community. In addition, Deno’s Pizzeria is a proud member of the Lake Oswego Chamber of Commerce and remains actively involved in local events and initiatives.
At Deno’s Pizzeria, we believe being a great local pizza restaurant in Lake Oswego means giving back to the community that has supported us for generations. If you’d like to learn more about our community involvement or how Deno’s Pizzeria may be able to help, please contact us.
