## Story

COPPELL, Texas - Cicis® Pizza, the original all-you-can-eat pizza buffet, is kicking off the summer by introducing The Deep Cheese - Pepperoni Deep Dish Stuffed Crust. To commemorate one of the brand's busiest seasons, this limited-time menu offer launches June 12 and runs through July 23.

“Indulging in Cicis’ endless pizza buffet with the addition of The Deep Cheese is the perfect way to elevate Cicis dine-in or take-out experience during the summer months,” said Jeff Hetsel, President and COO of Cicis. “This new limited-time offer provides variety for our loyal customers across the U.S., and we are looking forward to providing a convenient summer meal option for families with this fun, delicious menu item.”

Perfect for parents who are looking to provide their kids out of school with an easy, affordable meal, The Deep Cheese will be available on buffets nationwide and for off-premise ordering. For online ordering, guests can order any topping.

Founded in 1983, Irving, Texas-based Cicis invented the Endless Pizza Buffet concept, offering guests a wide variety of pizzas, including traditional crust and flatbreads, along with pastas, salads and desserts for dine-in, to-go and catering. With nearly 300 restaurants in 30-plus states, Cicis has been ranked by CNN Money as the No. 1 "Casual Dining Pizza Chain (for your money) in America," named by Technomic as the No. 2 "Most Kid-Friendly Chain as voted by Millennial Moms" and recognized by Nation's Restaurant News among its Top 200 Restaurant Chains.

Cicis is an iconic, modernized restaurant that pushes the limits of the regular family dining experience. With unlimited opportunities for revenue, multiple restaurant designs and off premise-options, Cicis is constantly evolving with the industry.
