About Us
Generations of flavor, shared with every guest
Behind the Dough
The acquisition of Pizagel's in late 2022 is not the first restaurant venture for Kevin Dunford and Crysi & Joe Sessel. They also own Paisano's Ristorante, which they took over in late 2021, and Kevin owns Tiki Taco Shack. These acquisitions have helped them establish a solid reputation.
Jim Burgardt, the previous owner of Pizagel's, approached Kevin as Jim was planning his retirement. The Team was a perfect fit for continuing the restaurant's legacy.
Almost 30 Years of Local Flavor
This place has deep roots. It started as Bagel Express and grew into the bakery, café, and pizzeria the community knows today. For nearly three decades, it’s been known for warm service, homemade dough, and comfort food that brings people together. We didn’t want to change what worked—we just wanted to keep it thriving.
From Sunrise to Sunset – A Unique Concept
We love the balance of morning bakery classics and evening pizza favorites. It’s a concept that works because it’s real. Every item starts with dough made fresh in-house. Our head baker has been perfecting his craft here for over 20 years. That kind of dedication is rare—and it’s what makes every bite taste like home.
