[edit] Overview
Camille's Sidewalk Cafe was founded in 1996 by David Rutkauskas, his wife Camille and father Otto, with the first location (a 250 square foot kiosk) opening in the Woodland Hills Mall in Tulsa in October of that year. Today there are Camille's locations in some 24 states.
The chain's menu consists principally of wraps, sandwiches, salads, panini and gourmet pizzas, plus a range of coffees and smoothies.
