Our Story

Founded in 1964 by Ed and Margie Imo in the heart of St. Louis, Imos Pizza began as a small neighborhood pizzeria with a simple mission: to serve the best pizza in town using only the freshest ingredients and time-honored recipes.

What started as a family dream has grown into a beloved local institution, known throughout St. Louis for our signature ultra-thin crust pizza topped with Provel cheese - a unique blend that defines authentic St. Louis style pizza.

Over the decades, we've remained committed to our founding principles: quality ingredients, exceptional service, and creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere where families and friends can gather to share great food and make lasting memories.
