Before Stuft Pizza gained recognition as a top restaurant in Palm Desert, and La Quinta, Jack Bertram and his wife, Pat, launched the first Stuft Pizza in Cerritos, California in 1976. After nearly 9 months of experimenting, Jack developed the recipe for the now beloved pizza. Despite initially offering only take-out pizza, the store's unwavering commitment to quality propelled its success. Two years later, Jack and Pat opened a second store in Whittier, and in 1986, Stuft Pizza transitioned into a franchise.

While franchisee-owned outlets operate outside the Coachella Valley, the Stuft Pizza Bar & Grill locations in the desert, both owned by the Bertram Family, are distinct. Since 2004 in La Quinta and 2014 in Palm Desert, we have been proud fixtures in the desert, boasting expanded menus, full bars, full service, HD TVs, and an exceptional wine list.

    We always enjoy Stuft - food was very good as usual and I highly reccomend the restaurant at either location. We went early in order to attend a holiday event afterwards and we did notice a lot of families with children. Noise levels can get high!

    Seated quickly, our server Jeff was courteous and professional. My fish tacos were a little underseasoned, but my wife’s flatbread was delicious. It’s in a shopping mall so the ambience isn’t exactly refined, but you can’t beat their Happy Hour!

    Dinner was great and drinks are always a good pour. Service was excellent. Only concern as it has been over the years is the noise level. Very noisy and hard to carry on a conversation. Not for business meetings or romantic evenings. Overall an excellent choice and well priced.

    Had an RSVP, got sat down and the gentlemen who sat us was nice when he greeted us. Once we got sat down. We waited about 5 min… no one showed up. Finally a bald tattooed tends to a table near us who has already gotten their food. He then passes our table, a couple then gets seated and the same waiter immediately goes to them and asks if they knew what they wanted to drink or if they would like waters. At this point 10 or more minutes had gone by that we had been sat down and no one approached us. After the couple asked for water he then passes our table and stated he would be right back. He gives the waters to the couple, passed us again. Nothing stated to us at that point. He then goes back to the other table with the couple and proceeds to ask if they are ready to order. This point almost 20 minutes and no one even acknowledged is besides the one time he stated he would be right with us and never came back. We got up and left.

    We go there quite often. The food is delicious and the menu is quite extensive, so everybody can have whatever they want and they’re happy. The Happy Hour menu can’t be beat and if you get a booth, they’re very comfortable. The servers always accommodate you. It’s just a great place to hang out.
