Jet's pizza kitchen — our story began with a passion for bold flavors

Who We Are

The Jet's Pizza Story

Jet's pizza was founded in Gilbert, Arizona in 2002 with one simple obsession: to create pizza so bold, so loaded with flavor, that every single bite feels like an event. What started as a single neighborhood pizzeria has grown into a beloved brand known across the United States for its signature deep-dish square-cut pies, crispy crusts, and no-compromise ingredient standards.

Our founders grew up in families where Sunday dinner meant gathering around a table piled high with handmade pizza, garlic bread, and laughter. That feeling — of warmth, community, and food made with genuine care — is baked into everything we do at Jet's pizza.

Today, we continue to honor that founding spirit while embracing modern tastes, bold new toppings, and the highest quality local ingredients we can source. Every jets pizza that leaves our kitchen is crafted by people who love what they do.

Fresh, Local Ingredients

We source the freshest produce and highest-quality meats from local suppliers every single day.

Stone-Baked Perfection

Our signature deep-dish and hand-tossed pies are stone-baked at high heat for that unbeatable crust.

Made with Passion

Every pizza is handcrafted by our team with the same passion we've had since day one in 2002.
