Frontier Pizza Company opened last December and has begun working on being an open venue space for young new artists. Last Frontier offers whole pizzas going for about $20 and slices for $3.

“We have good pizza that”s perfect for students at an affordable price,” said Owner Nikolaos Lagos.

Located on 2nd Street in Downtown Moscow, the restaurant has a variety of pizza pies, makes in-house meatballs and uses ingredients and cooking styles passed down from generation to generation – straight from Greece.

Besides offering pizza, Last Frontier also offers hot sandwiches, salads and community entertainment.

Last Frontier Pizza Company will host a pop punk show 9-10 p.m. Tuesday.

“I can”t believe I haven’t been to this place before,” said University of Idaho student Hannah Dunbar. “I really liked the pizza and the rustic feel, I always love meeting other Alaskans and supporting local businesses.”

Lagos said the restaurant gets its name from his native state Alaska, which is known as being the last frontier.   He said he loves sharing his family recipes with the community, and wants to continue the legacy of his father, who owned many pizzerias before him. The restaurant recently won the Inland 360 award for best pizza place with 650 votes.

Last Frontier Pizza Co. is open 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and 11 a.m. until late Friday and Saturday.
