It made very little dough.

An Astoria pizzeria that opened in January has already closed down for good.

Razzies Pizza, located at 29-04 Ditmars Blvd, called it a day after just four months, with the owner, Harry Puccio, claiming that his business plan was simply wrong.

“I quickly realized the concept wouldn’t work,” he said.

The pizzeria focused on Sicilian pizza.

Puccio said a pizza and souvlaki restaurant would be moving into the location in coming weeks.

“The new owner has more experience and knows the neighborhood,” Puccio said. “He has a concept that will work.”

The new restaurant owner declined to comment.
