"Nashville natives Clinton Gray, Derrick Moore, and Emanuel Reed opened the fast-casual Slim & Husky’s Pizza Beeria in North Nashville back in 2017, quickly solidifying it as a popular spot to hang out, listen to hip-hop, drink beer, and, of course, eat pizza. It’s all about the flatbread-style pizzas and cinnamon rolls here — both of which lean into unexpected toppings. The company has expanded rapidly, opening several additional locations throughout Music City and Tennessee as well as Georgia and California." - Ellen Fort
"Open For: Lunch and Dinner Price Range: $ - $$ Hip-hop-inspired Slim & Husky’s Pizza Beeria has locations on Metropolitan Parkway and Morehouse College. (The original Atlanta location on Howell Mill closed in September 2024.) The popular North Nashville pizzeria, owned by college friends Clinton Gray, Derrick Moore, and Emanuel Reed, features a menu filled with pizzas named for songs by various hip-hop and R&B artists like the Rony, Roni, Rone!, named for the group Tony! Toni! Toné!. It includes three types of pepperoni. The meaty Cee No Green pays tribute to crooner CeeLo Green from Atlanta-based Goodie Mob. Best For: Hip-hop and R&B-inspired pizzas with plenty of sauces and meats" - Eater Staff
"Hip-hop-themed pizzeria Slim & Husky’s Pizza with locations in the West End and West Midtown is the perfect post-work retreat, where you can unwind with craft beers and boozy slushies." - jacinta howard, juli horsford
"Snoop Lion gave up his short lived Rastafarian life and returned to being plain ol’ Snoop Dogg a while back. But there’s still a tasty vegan slice named for his classic song at hip-hop-themed pizzeria Slim & Husky’s. It’s called Nuthin But a V’Thang, and it comes with vegan cheese, sausage, and pepperoni—so Rasta Snoop’s spirit lives on when you stop to dine-in. With a catalogue of other vegan and non-vegan toppings, Slim & Husky’s menu and always-animated atmosphere attracts everyone from after-work crowds to AUC students who keep this place on rotation for a quick bite and boozy slushie." - jacinta howard
"Every student needs a solid pizza joint in their back pocket. Nashville-based Slim & Husky’s fits that bill. Its flatbread-style pies earned Tennessee State alums Clint Gray, Derrick Moore, and Emanuel Reed James Beard semifinalist status in 2023. Expect some unconventional toppings (i.e. smoked salmon and Nashville hot chicken sausage), local beer on tap, and a steady stream of hip-hop amping up the scene. In addition to a standalone North Nashville location near TSU, the burgeoning fast-casual chain has food court stalls in downtown’s Fifth + Broadway and Midtown’s Ascension Saint Thomas Hospital." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
