A Snowy Saturday at Salvo’s Pizza in Smyrna (TN)
On a lazy March Saturday at my local Starbucks blogging table, I read a comment from one of my readers recommending Salvo’s Pizza in nearby Smyrna, a bustling little town southeast of Nashville. It piqued my interest since Salvo’s owner was founder of both Sal’s Pizza and the former Hickory Hollow Mall’s Pizza Picnic. With […]
Brentwood, TN’s Matteo’s Pizzeria – A Take-Out Disappointment
It was a lazy Saturday night at home, and we had no dinner plans. It had been awhile since the Snob’s last adventure, so he thought about bringing home a pie to accompany that evening’s Netflix flick. I decided to try Matteo’s Pizzeria, a place once close to home at The Factory in Franklin. They […]
Mafiaoza’s – Nashville’s Hip Spot Still Disappoints
The Pizza Snob panned Mafiaoza’s Pizzeria & Neighborhood Pub big-time back in an earlier story I wrote on pizza in Music City. I caught some heat about this from a few friends and fans, so since I based this opinion on a bad birthday experience several years back, I decided to give it another try. […]
Memphis Pizza Cafe – A Tasty Twist on Tradition
It was Christmas and that meant our annual drive to Texas to spend the holiday with Sweetie Pie’s family. Not wanting to seriously delay our twelve-hour journey, I had no set stops in mind but planned to keep my pizza-radar turned on at all times. We wound up getting a late start and as a […]
Spring Hill (TN) Pizza Surprise – Samboli’s
Spring Hill is a small community just south of Franklin which in turn is just south of Nashville. Spring Hill is a mess. It sprung up out of necessity with the creation of a Saturn auto plant then failed miserably in its urban planning. The city is aesthetically unappealing and a traffic nightmare. I avoid […]
More Music City Pizza – Nashville’s Pizza Perfect Kebob
Pizza Perfect Kebob sits on Granny White Pike across from David Lipscomb University. Located since 1983 on a lone city block devoted to retail, I only recently made my first trip there. If the name surprises you, I am told that their owner is brother to Pizza Perfect’s owner who sports two Nashville locations! (I […]
More Music City Pizza – Angelo’s Picnic Pizza in Antioch, TN
My friend Frank the OT lives on the east side of Nashville near Antioch. He is a pizza lover who after reading my Nashville blog entry told me about Angelo’s Picnic Pizza. This was his go-to place along with Sal’s Pizza, and he thinks the owners of these joints are somehow related. So, on a […]
More Music City Pizza – Sal’s Pizza in Brentwood, TN
The Pizza Snob has a simple goal: To visit and review as many of the USA’s pizza places as fast as possible. During times of less travel, I check out Nashville area pizzerias. Luckily for the Snob, the music industry has created a New York to Nashville axis which brings good pizza-makers to town. I […]
Music City – Lunch at Joey’s House of Pizza
Like his brother Manny’s, this other House of Pizza owned by Joey is a great go-to place for lunch in Nashville. And lunch it is – Joey’s House of Pizza is only open from 11am to 3pm, Monday through Friday. Word was that he left Brentwood’s Maryland Farms location when he got tired of paying […]
Nashville West – NY Pie
It’s no East Nashville, but there recently have been some exciting new developments on the west side of the city. Music City Mike – the Snob’s alter-ego – routinely travels out Charlotte Ave. to pick the used CD bins of Great Escape and McKay. Both establishments are relatively new to the area. NY Pie is one […]
