We are passionate about great food, great service, and outside-the-pizza-box thinking. Our hot, fresh, made-from-scratch pizza has been the cornerstone of our success for more than 50 years, and our commitment to innovation, employee development, and continued growth keep us a step above the rest.

In 1958, two Texas brothers opened the first Pizza Inn across from the Southern Methodist University campus in Dallas, TX. As word spread of the restaurant's exceptional pizza and friendly service, so did Pizza Inn locations. From 1960-1990, taste buds across the southeastern and southwestern U.S. were able to experience first-hand the made-from-scratch crispy, crackery Original Thin crust, and tangy signature sauce that are still hallmarks of the Pizza Inn brand today.

And today, Pizza Inn, as part of RAVE Restaurant Group is headquartered in the Dallas area. Our success has earned us more than 300 franchise operations, several corporate restaurants, and many honors and awards. Join our elite team of professionals and be a member of the Pizza Inn Family!
