About Capizzi’s Pizza & Cheesecakes
From Chicago Roots to Desert Heat
Our Story
Located in the heart of Cathedral City at 68718 E Palm Canyon Drive, Capizzi’s Pizza & Cheesecakes brings an authentic taste of Chicago tradition to the Coachella Valley. Built on a proud third-generation family recipe, Capizzi’s is rooted in generations of Italian restaurant experience led by owner Louie Capizzi and his family. From the moment you walk in, you’re surrounded by history—family memorabilia, vintage photographs, and newspaper clippings that tell the ongoing story of the Capizzi legacy.
Our vision
We envision Capizzi’s as more than a place to eat—it’s a place where tradition is preserved and shared. Every pizza is handcrafted using premium ingredients, slow-crafted dough, rich homemade sauce, and a carefully balanced blend of cheeses. Our cheesecakes are made the same way they’ve been for decades: creamy, nostalgic, and unmistakably authentic. We strive to honor the past while delivering a consistently exceptional experience to every guest.
Our Goal
Our goal is simple: to create unforgettable food and lasting memories. Whether you’re a local, a visitor, or someone craving a true Chicago bite in the desert, we aim to be the place you return to again and again. By combining family, hospitality, and uncompromising flavor, Capizzi’s continues to earn its place at the table for generations to come.
