Unconventional pizza toppings may be nudging themselves into the mainstream, but possibly no other pizzeria has gone quite to the lengths that Spinning Dough has in eight years of cranking out bright purple ube and sweet-and-savory longanisa pizzas. Now, the Spinning Dough chapter is coming to an end, as owner Jeff Chin plans to shutter his West Oakland restaurant on April 20. (Spinning Dough nearly closed in 2023, after Chin suffered a heart attack after returning home from work.) 

“I want to take this opportunity to personally thank all our customers, friends, and family that have supported us. I will forever cherish all of our relationships and memories,” Chin announced on Spinning Dough’s website and on Instagram. “Closing Spinning Dough will be bittersweet, but I am excited to write the next chapter of my life so please stay tuned!” Spinning Dough was located at 2935 Market St. in Oakland.
