Small letters - BIG Pizza! zpizza is a fast-casual gourmet chain offering 17 pizza selections, as well as great sandwiches, salads and calzones. "Customers love our food because we offer fresh, health-conscious ingredients - ingredients that make them feel good about eating pizza again," Chris Bright, zpizza president, said in a news release.

zpizza serves four day parts which include, lunch, afternoon chill, dinner and catering. Critics are raving and customers are becoming "fanatics"!

Their dough is made from premium Montana Winter Wheat, prepared fresh every day, hand thrown, and fire baked until uniquely crisp. Only select ingredients such as Wisconsin skim mozzarella, certified organic tomato sauce, MSG-free pepperoni and additive free sausage are used. Even zpizza's fresh produce sets them apart. Exotic delights such as Cremini and Shitaki mushrooms, roasted eggplant, pili pili & truffle oil, pine nuts, kalamata olives, roasted red peppers and caramelized onions assure you will never experience a bland, boring blaze pizza. The same holds true for their gourmet sandwiches and salads.
