Cemeno's Pizza

Cemeno's Pizza Cemeno's Pizza has been a family-owned Joliet tradition since 1976. We offer award winning pizza, superb pasta, tasty sandwiches and more!

We still use the same recipes we did when our Grandma Tressie would come in and make our sauces and meatballs, using her hands as measuring cups. We offer a great atmosphere for any occasion! Cemenos is perfect for a night out with friends, a celebration with family, watching your favorite sports, or a business-related event.

All day long, we are here to offer food for every occasion!

Day in the life as a Cemeno fan ☺️

☕ 8:00 AM– Start your morning at Cup of Joe by Cemeno's with your favorite handcrafted latte and a hot breakfast sandwich. Whether you're headed to work, running errands, or just easing into the day, we've got the perfect grab-and-go breakfast waiting for you.

🥗 12:30 PM– Time for lunch at Cemeno's At The Park! Enjoy our fresh lunch specials, crisp salads, sandwiches, pizzas, and so much more. It's the perfect midday stop to recharge before finishing out the afternoon.

🍝 6:00 PM– End the day the best way we know how... gathered around the table at Cemeno's Pizza. Treat the family to an Italian supper, stay for dessert, and get a sneak peek at The Sepper Club, our beautifully refreshed dining experience we have been soft launching each weekend—with our official grand opening on July 16!

Three stops. One family. A full day of incredible food, great company, and memories waiting to be made. ❤️

✨ Save room for dessert ✨

Homemade never goes out of style—especially when it’s Aunt Sue’s famous Tiramisu. 🤎🍰

Made from scratch with layers of delicate ladyfingers, rich filling, espresso, and a dusting of cocoa, it’s the perfect way to end your evening at The Sepper Club—especially when paired with a crafted cocktail for the ultimate finish.

Join us this Saturday for another Sepper Club Soft Opening, beginning at 4 PM, and enjoy our growing selection of homemade Italian entrées, handcrafted pastas, and family recipes that have been shared around the Cemeno table for generations.

Aunt Sue’s Sugar-Free Tangerine Pineapple Cake!! 🍍🍊

Come grab a slice today—you might not even realize it's sugar-free! 🍰✨

Sugar doesn't mix well with our family, so we're always looking for ways to make dessert enjoyable for everyone!

This sweet and refreshing favorite is packed with tangerine and pineapple flavor, delivering all the deliciousness you crave without the added sugar. Light, fruity, and incredibly satisfying, it's the perfect way to end your meal. Come try a slice before we run out!
