Imo's Pizza is an American chain of pizza restaurants headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri.[1] As of 2020, the company says it has more than 100 restaurants and stores in Missouri, Illinois and Kansas.[2]

The chain was founded by Ed and Margie Imo in St. Louis in 1964.[2]

As of November 2015, Imo's was ranked the 32nd-largest pizza chain in the United States with gross sales of $93.8 million.[3]

The chain is known for its version of St. Louis-style pizza, which is common in the area and features provel cheese—a combination of cheddar, Swiss, and provolone with a low melting point and gooey texture. The restaurants also sell salads, submarine sandwiches, and desserts, the last including ones that can be made in a pizza oven.
