Truly Pizza will open a second location in Laguna Beach, California, next year, according to a press release.

The brand first opened its doors in Dana Point, California, under the helm of Donna Baldwin, a Las Vegas hospitality veteran, and World Pizza Champions John Arena, Chris Decker and Michael Vakneen.

"Bringing Truly Pizza to Laguna Beach feels like coming home," Baldwin said in the press release. "We believe in creating a space where pizza brings people together, and our new location on PCH is the perfect place to make that happen. We are looking forward to sharing our love for authentic, quality pizza with even more people."

The 2,000-square-foot venture will be strategically positioned on the iconic Pacific Coast Highway and will have patio seating for 100 guests.

The brand bakes up artisan 12-inch crispy and airy hearth-based pizzas and square pizzas. It also serves salads, sandwiches on fresh-baked focaccia bread, salumi, soft-serve desserts and regional craft beer and wines.
