Patxi's (pronounced pah-cheese)[1] is a small pizzeria chain based in Sausalito, California.[2]

History

Patxi's was founded by William Freeman and Francisco “Patxi” Azpiroz.[3] The restaurant chain specializes in Chicago-style pizza.[4]

In April 2014, it was announced that the private-equity firm KarpReilly LLC acquired a controlling interest in the company. The announcement also stated that co-founder William Freeman would continue as the company's CEO, and that the company aimed to expand to 70 Patxi's locations by 2019.[2]

On September 24, 2018, it was announced that Patxi's is being acquired by Elite Restaurant Group. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.[5]

As of 2024, the firm has 5 restaurant locations.[6]

On November 6, 2015, Patxi's partnered with UberEATS to offer $10.00 cheese pizzas that were delivered in a box that said "Little Nero's" to honor the twenty-fifth anniversary of the release of the comedy film Home Alone.[7][8]
