Our Story

How Round Table Pizza Began

Round table pizza was born from a simple dream shared by two friends in Tacoma, WA — to create a gathering place where great food brings people together. What started as a small neighborhood pizzeria on North Pearl Street in 2009 has grown into a beloved institution across the United States.

Our founders believed that the round table has always symbolized equality, warmth, and community. Every pizza we craft is a tribute to that philosophy — no corners, no hierarchy, just delicious food shared among equals.

  • Fresh, hand-prepared dough made daily from locally sourced ingredients
  • Signature sauces crafted from heirloom tomato recipes passed down through generations
  • A welcoming space designed for families, friends, and food lovers of all kinds
  • Committed to sustainable sourcing and reducing our environmental footprint
