After nearly two years on the SE corner of First Avenue and 13th Street, the Onion Tree Pizza Co. will permanently close after service on Sunday. 

Chef Jay Jadeja and his wife Raquel Wolf-Jadeja, who have owned and operated several NYC restaurants in the past 20-plus years, also run The Onion Tree in Sea Cliff on Long Island's North Shore. That outpost will remain open. 

The Onion Tree Pizza Co. puts an Indian spin on classic Italian pizza, including their signature chicken tikka masala pizza.

Below is the closing announcement from Instagram yesterday. (H/T Salim!)

With another pizza joint just down the block it seemed one of them was not going to make it.

that’s too bad, their food was good and pretty unique.

Getting harder and harder to sustain a business in NYC, especially EV. Unless you go viral on social media, you're going to struggle. Sad times.
