America’s Hometown Pizza Place Opens Newest location in Mount Home
Pizza Inn, the international pizza restaurant with a local hometown feel, will open its newest location Wednesday, October 5 in Mountain Home, Arkansas. The new Pizza Inn buffet is located at 1127 Highway 62 East and will be operated by Raj and Rocky Chopra.
“The community in Mountain Home grew up on Pizza Inn,” said Franchisee, Raj Chopra. “We have so many people in the area with fond memories of the brand – we can’t wait to start hosting birthdays, fundraisers and NFL Sundays at our new location.”
Franchisee Rocky Chopra began his career at Pizza Inn as a Manager. He and partner Raj eventually opened their own location in 2004 in Mountain View, AR. They also own another location in Vicksburg, MS.
“Raj and Rocky are wonderful operators and really get involved in the communities they serve,” said Bob Bafundo, President of Pizza Inn. “We’re excited to be partnering with them on their newest location.”

In 1958, two Texas brothers opened the first Pizza Inn across from the Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX. As word spread of the restaurant’s exceptional pizza and friendly service, so did Pizza Inn locations. In no time, taste buds across the country were able to experience the made–from–scratch crispy, crackery Original Thin crust and tangy signature sauce that are still hallmarks of the Pizza Inn brand today. Pizza Inn continues to be a leader in pizza innovation through menu additions like introducing the Taco Pizza, the first dessert “pizzert” pizza and the chain’s hallmark bacon cheeseburger pizza.
Founded in 1958, Pizza Inn is an international pizza chain featuring traditional and specialty pizzas, as well as freshly made pastas, sandwiches, and desserts. Pizza Inn was recently inducted in to the Pizza Hall of Fame by PMQ Magazine. Pizza Inn is a subsidiary of RAVE Restaurant Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: RAVE) based in Dallas. RAVE owns, franchises and supplies more than 300 Pizza Inn and Pie Five restaurants operating domestically and internationally. For more information, please visit www.pizzainn.com.
