I Remember Harry


I remember Uncle Harry always let me come in and make pizzas. Those were the good 'ol days. "Even though I'm only 13. Uncle Harry brought pizza into existence." I used to go to the ID eat pizza and ride the trolly. Uncle Harry ROCKS!!!! We miss you. See you on Sat-Your-Day.

~ Harry O' Trivia ~

When Mark Wahlberg was Markie Mark and the Funky Bunch, Harry hung out with him and drove his music equipment to all of his gigs. Of course, one day, his music equipment rolled out of the van because he failed to properly secure them.

Drove bus for a "Bipolar Awareness Campaign" across country.


Owned a German Shepard Police Dog named Brandon.



Organ Donor



Was a member of AA for 20 plus years.

Loved to fish! Back in the day, fishing at the Russian River, in Alaska, Harry cast out and the hook got stuck in his head. Harry had someone clip as much of the hook off as possible and continued on fishing for the rest of the day. That's how he got the name "Snagamatsu."

If golfers tooks too long playing, he would tell them that he had a plane to catch.

Harry continues to serve breakfast for the homeless every month at the shop.

Harry"O" The Movie STAR
He loved to fish and even better than fishing, he loved to talk about the big ones that got away.
Hard to see, is that Harry riding an elephant or an elephant riding Harry? the elephant retired shortly after.

Harry Nagamatsu

Harry was born in Yokosuka, Japan. He was raised in Seattle's Beacon Hill area, which at the time was Seattle's Italian community. His first job was at Borracchini's grocery store on Rainer Ave. where he first gained appreciation for fine Italian food. He attended Queen High School where he lettered in football. He left and returned to Seattle after many years in Alaska as a firefighter to pursue his passion for food.
He opened Atlantic Street Pizza(in the University District) in the summer of 1989. With his secret recipe and the rest is history.
