Pepi’s Pizza has officially reopened in the former Big Ebe’s Pizza space at 1329 S. 70th St. in West Allis.

It’s a big day for the pizza restaurant, which has survived both ownership changes and multiple moves over the past 66 years.

Pepi’s was founded in 1953 by Andy and Mary Nigrelli, who opened a sit-down pizza parlor on South 16th and West Scott Streets in Walker’s Point. In 1995, the restaurant moved to South Howell Avenue, where it operated as a carry-out and delivery business for over two decades.
