Description

Most West Coast restaurants have decor of extreme sports, such as photographs of extreme athletes and benches made out of snowboards.[5][6] In keeping with its extreme sports theme, Extreme Pizza was an early sponsor of the X Games.[7] According to the Seattle Times, Extreme Pizza is "lauded within the business world for its enlightened corporate policies and savvy extreme-sports sponsorships".[8]

East Coast restaurants have a different flavor, in keeping with the style of the locality. They are sleeker and more catered to their individual neighborhoods.
