Sy's New York Pizza in Eugene Oregon opened its doors on August 30, 1978 under the name of Sy's Single Slice Pizza.  Sy Zeer arrived in Eugene from New York and started his campus area pizza joint with the intention of serving New York style pizza by the slice to hungry University of Oregon students.  While the slices were popular the added demand for a whole pie led to the dropping of the"Single Slice" moniker and the restaurant became known simply as "Sy's Pizza".

Sy's is Eugene's original New York style pizza and has become an institution on and around the Uof O campus and the Eugene/Springfield area.  Sy's just celebrated 30 years of operation and has been at the same location the entire time in an 80 year old building at the corner of 12th & Alder just a block off campus.

Current owner Mark Fischer purchased the business in 2006 and was personally trained by Sy himself.  He wanted to keep the integrity of the business and Sy's continues to serve the delicious New York style pizza that has been its mainstay since 1978.
