The best option to combine the sentences into a compound-complex sentence is: "Because the restaurant has 2-for-1 pizzas on Fridays, Mom can order the pepperoni she likes, and the kids can order the cheese pizza they enjoy."
This sentence is compound-complex because it contains at least two independent clauses ("Mom can order the pepperoni she likes" and "the kids can order the cheese pizza they enjoy") and one or more dependent clauses ("Because the restaurant has 2-for-1 pizzas on Fridays"). The dependent clause provides the reason for the actions in the independent clauses. The use of the conjunction "and" connects the two independent clauses to show that both actions are taking place.
