Emmy Squared Pizza: The Gulch - Nashville, Tennessee

"Brooklyn-based Emmy Squared specializes in burgers and thick, fluffy, Detroit-style rectangles edged with delightfully crispy cheese known as a frico crust. On top, you can go classic with red sauce and mozzarella, or venture into more adventurous territory with toppings like kimchi and truffle mushroom cream. In addition to the Gulch, this hip chain has touched down in Germantown, Green Hills, and East Nashville." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Eater Staff

"Named Eater Nashville’s Restaurant Import of the Year in 2018, Emmy Squared has been celebrated by locals for introducing Detroit-style pizza to the Gulch. It should come as no surprise that the must-orders here are square-shaped pies, but you’ll also want to consider the award-winning Le Big Matt burger." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Eater Staff

"Emmy Squared might be known for its square Detroit-style pizza, but the round “Le Big Matt” put Nashville’s burger game on notice. The half-pound double-stacked Bear Creek Farms patty — which you can find at all four locations around Nashville — is splayed on a chewy pretzel bun with American cheese, greens, pickles, and a tangy sambal sauce." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Delia Jo Ramsey

"Dine-In Detroit-style pizza and burger restaurant Emmy Squared Pizza will keep its doors open this Christmas Eve with regular hours of operation in Germantown, East Nashville, Green Hills, and The Gulch.

The deadline for orders is December 22. Order your party packs here." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones

"Seems Emmy Squared is dead set on conquering the lower 48 with new openings popping up all over the east coast. But with three locations in Nashville alone, it’s safe to say we’ve got some insider knowledge on what this New York-born spot has to offer - and it’s quite possibly one of the best burgers to have ever graced the city. The Detroit-style pizza is absolutely solid and the crispy chicken crunchers with a Sriracha Crystal glaze hold their own, but we come here for Le Big Matt, a double stack of patties topped with bacon, cheese, and Sammy sauce on a pretzel bun. It’s a thing of beauty - and if a burger craving hits you during your visit, their Gulch location is the first place you should go." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
