Hey!!!!!!!! I worked for Round Table back in the mid 1970s. Many folks in Modesto California proclaimed that Round Table pizza was the yummiest around. Went back to Modesto after having been gone for a long time and saw the old Round Table location was now home to a pizza joint I never heard of. Kinda' sad. Sniff. I'm getting old. Sniff. And, fat, after eating so many pizzas over the decades. Arteries are likely pert near plugged, also. I could die any second!!!!! Eeeeeeeek!!!!! Did I say Round Table made yummy pizzas? Wonder if they still do.68.13.191.153 20:23, 11 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

there's an error on the page. In the obituary for William Larson, the founder of Round Table pizza, it says that Round Table Pizza is named for the round redwood tables the he and his father constructed for that first parlor and not for the medieval theme that came later. The obituary was printed in The Nov. 22nd 2006 issue of the local Menlo Park paper, The Almanac.

Fair use rationale for Image:Food logo roundtable.gif

edit
 

Image:Food logo roundtable.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 09:28, 4 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

"Menu" section looks like an advertisement

edit

It looks like someone just went to the Round Table website and copied their own description of their pizza and pasted it onto Wikipedia. Not encyclopedic-looking at all. Okay to remove/reword? Angelsfreeek (talk) 23:19, 24 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Agreed. Someone can always add it back if they feel its neccesary but I dont see Wikipedia delivering my pizza's off a menu anytime soon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JasonHockeyGuy (talkcontribs) 20:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
Done. Ive removed the external links, removed the menu, and cleaned up slightly. JasonHockeyGuy (talk) 20:36, 15 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

The menu is back. I'm not sure who did it. I at least corrected it so that it was accurate. --98.234.74.77 (talk) 03:01, 24 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Lumbarts?

What are lumbarts? Also, "know" should be "known". --MajorPenalty (talk) 01:48, 12 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Founded in what city?

edit

Round Table's first store opened in Menlo Park, CA but their headquarters opened prior to the store opening, it was located at ROUND TABLE PIZZA RESTAURANTS ll0l Embarcadero Rd., Palo Alto, Ca, 94303. I'm currently gathering the documentation, but wondering if (by others estimates) if Palo Alto would be considered the city where the company was founded?

The first store was founded in Menlo Park, California per citations; no mention of the Palo Alto headquarters (but it is in the comments).[1][2] PigeonChickenFish (talk) 05:18, 31 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Misuse of the specific term muppet?

edit

Muppets or puppets? There is a significant difference between the two, as one is a Jim Henson productions creation, while the other is a general term for any sort of puppet. 104.186.132.216 (talk) 09:52, 23 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
