We believe a pizza place should be fun. We started in one of the “funnest” places on Earth…Capitola Beach. Since then, each time we open a new restaurant, we bring a slice of the beach with us. Our Willow Glen restaurant displays the “world’s largest wooden surfboard” while others have surf memorabilia from the pro circuit and famous surf movies. By creating a fun atmosphere and hiring fun people, we think you’ll have fun each time you visit Pizza My Heart. As much as we value the fun factor, we are nothing without our food quality. In fact, you could say superior food quality is Pizza My Heart’s “secret formula.”
