Overview
Athanasios Chris Karamesines set out to fulfill his dream of becoming a pizza restaurateur. Chris, the Greek part of Greek’s® Pizzeria, was born in Chicago and developed a taste for good food at a young age. His father, who traveled to the United States of America in 1919 from a small village in Greece, foresaw the endless opportunities America had to offer. The Karamesines family has been in the restaurant business since 1922 and no matter the name of each location, over the years the neighborhood customers commonly stated “let’s just eat at the Greek’s.”
As Greek’s® continues to grow, the restaurants feature specialized pizzas, pastas, fresh French-style bread sandwiches or pizza shell wraps, breadsticks, salads, and an assortment of beverages.
The fresh, homemade hand-tossed dough, Greek’s® Italian sauce, select blended cheeses, with gourmet toppings and method of preparation make Greek's pizzas more flavorful and original than others. It’s our taste!
