The name combines the founders' surnames. Stores are owned by former employees: "franchises are not awarded to strangers".
In 2026 the company's site lists Appleton, Brookfield, Fitchburg, Green Bay, Madison East, Madison West, Neenah-Menasha, Sun Prairie, Waukesha and Rib Mountain–Wausau.
From August 1999 an employee ran a late-night pizza truck on Langdon Street, the former Rozino's truck.
Runner-up for People's Choice best pizza in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
In March 2020 delivery volume held about level; the chain stopped taking cash and set no-contact delivery rules.
The west-side store reopened June 1, 2016, after its February fire, with a one-off "Phoenix" pizza and staff in phoenix T-shirts.
In 2014 the Atwood Avenue flagship sold about 600 pizzas a day and had 16 drivers on Super Bowl Sunday. The Fetalicious won the Capital Times' best-pizza poll in November 2013 with 24% of 2,716 votes.
In 2005 Pizza Today rated the Atwood Avenue store among the busiest pizzerias in the country (20 drivers; 55–60 deliveries an hour on Super Bowl Sunday); drivers earned $4.25–$7.25 an hour plus 50 cents a run and tips. In 2008 the chain raised prices 5% rather than cut quality and added a solar water heater and LED lights.
Signature pizzas: the Feta-Licious (best seller: spinach, red onion, mushroom, feta), Cardiac Arrest (all meat), Border-to-Border, the Cheesasaurus; Nickel Nuggets of fried dough. Delivery trucks ran partly on used vegetable oil by 2009.
