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.

    It was an unbelievably fantastic experience. Gina our waitress was great and the Rat Pack performance was incredible ! It’s where Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. performed their first Rat Pack show before taking it to the Sands Hotel & Casino in Vegas. The OG location where it all began.

    If there is a name for the perfect dining experience, it is Si Bon. Nicely decorated for the holidays, a warm welcome, friendly, efficient service, and delicious food summarize our early evening dinner. The generous bowl of mushroom soup was hearty and flavorful. The beef stroganoff and seafood pasta entrees were superb. The pear-almond tart with vanilla gelato was scrumptious. While this was our first visit, we will be back again for breakfast as well as dinner. Highly recommended.
