FAT Brands, the parent company of Round Table Pizza, has announced the opening of the pizza brand's first Houston location in Texas, US. 

Located in the suburb of Richmond at 8323 Farm to Market Road 723, the new restaurant is operated by franchisee Paul Tran, a retired oil industry professional.

The addition is part of Round Table Pizza’s expansion strategy in the country.

The chain currently operates more than 410 restaurants across the US.

The Richmond restaurant serves a wide range of its signature offerings including handmade pizzas, fresh salads, Garlic Parmesan Twists and a selection of classic and boneless wings.

FAT Brands chief development officer Taylor Wiederhorn stated: “Establishing a presence in Houston represents a pivotal step in Round Table Pizza’s domestic growth strategy, especially as we continue building upon our presence in Texas.

“Round Table Pizza has seen great success in the San Antonio and Dallas markets, and we believe the Richmond community will enjoy what we have to offer.”

The announcement comes after Round Table Pizza opened three new franchised restaurants in August 2023 in San Luis Obispo, El Centro and Norco in the US state of California.

The brand now has more than 340 venues in the state.

FAT Brands owns 18 restaurant brands including Buffalo’s Cafe & Express, Fatburger, Fazoli’s Great American Cookies, Hot Dog on a Stick, Johnny Rockets, Marble Slab Creamery, Round Table Pizza and Twin Peaks.

It franchises and owns more than 2,300 units across the world.
