Campisi's Egyptian Restaurant

Campisi's Restaurant is an Italian-American chain serving Roman-style cuisine focused on pizza and pasta. It was founded in 1946 by Sicilian immigrants Carlos and Antonina Campisi; the original name came from the previous Egyptian Lounge sign they could not afford to change. The oldest location still operates as Campisi's Egyptian Restaurant, preserving that quirky legacy. Visitors can enjoy classic Italian-American dishes at any of the nine locations across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The original Egyptian-themed spot offers a nostalgic dining experience that reflects the family's immigrant story and the restaurant's accidental naming.
