Pizza Guys is continuing its expansion across Orange County with a new restaurant in Yorba Linda, adding another location to the pizza franchise's Southern California footprint. The restaurant is owned and operated by local entrepreneur Sameh Mekhaiel, whose previous experience in the pizza industry helped shape his decision to pursue franchise ownership.
Mekhaiel's path to Pizza Guys began through a relationship with an existing franchisee. A friend who operated a Pizza Guys location encouraged him to explore the brand, eventually leading Mekhaiel to consider ownership for himself. His familiarity with the restaurant business provided a foundation as he prepared to bring the brand's menu and service model to the Yorba Linda community.
The opening forms part of Pizza Guys' continued growth in Orange County. The brand has operated for about four decades and has built its offering around scratch-made pizza, fresh ingredients, customer service, and value. For Mekhaiel, the new restaurant represents an opportunity to combine his industry experience with local entrepreneurship while developing relationships with customers in his community.
As franchise networks grow, local openings also create a steady stream of stories that need to be communicated across the organization and to customers.

For Mekhaiel, the restaurant marks a move into ownership with a familiar product category and an established franchise system behind him. For Pizza Guys, it adds another local operator to its expanding Orange County presence.
