Curry Pizza
Capitol Reef's Curry Pizza is a bold fusion stop. Butter Chicken Pizza on naan crust crackles at the edge with melted cheese riding a makhani curry, featuring chicken tikka and paneer. The Tikka Masala Pizza brings peppers, tomatoes, green onions, and jalapeños on a curry base, while Veggie Pizza adds mushrooms and peppers for balance. A surprising, crave-worthy detour in a small town that’s worth the calories.
