The Last Honest Pizza
In 1959, William R. Larson opened his first pizza restaurant in Menlo Park, California. He wanted to create a place where families could go to relax, to experience a real sense of community, and to share a superb pizza. Hence was born Round Table Pizza.
After 50 years, the Round Table Pizza family has expanded to more than 500 restaurants across the Western US. Today, the phrase, “The Last Honest Pizza” describes Round Table Pizza’s commitment to quality and authenticity.
Round Table Pizza rolls its dough from scratch, adds a fresh blend of three cheeses, and lavishly top the pizzas with only premium meats and garden fresh vegetables to produce unique specialty pizzas. Over the last 10 years, Round Table Pizza has introduced more than 30 successful new products, and is considered a pioneer in gourmet taste, quality as well as pizza and menu innovation.
