The 25 Best Restaurants In Nashville - Nashville - The Infatuation
"Nashville-style pizza is not a thing. You've got Neapolitan-ish sourdough pies from Folk, thin-crust pizzas from Slim & Husky or Dicey’s, and NY slices from Five Points. But the most interesting stuff in town is St. Vito's sourdough Sicilian-style sfincione, covered in toppings like cheesy potato fonduta and an army of crispy pepperoni. This spot in the Gulch could’ve called it a day serving those slices, but there’s more than meets the eye here. It’s a well-rounded Italian restaurant with small plates and pasta that live up to the pizza’s greatness, a deep wine list, and a space that feels right for a low-key special occasion or just a standout casual dinner. We like the cushiony banquettes for group celebrations, but prefer sitting at the long bar. You’ll get to watch the pizzas getting blasted in and out of the oven, and probably talk to the chef and somm, who might just pour you a taste of some rare white nerello mascalese." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, carlo mantuano, ann walczak
