Knoxville Restaurants

[doozer]

I agree that it's a little on the steep side, but none of the six guys in my party were disappointed at all. I love Hard Knox, too, but it's certainly different. I would rank them 1a/1b, with a slight edge to HK for toppings and AD for crust.

A little on the steep side? It cost my wife and I $40 dollars for two 13 inch pizzas. That's highway robbery.

My general rule is that if the cost is more than the size, you're getting ripped off.

Can't be cheap to build and ship a 1000 degree oven from Italy, though

True, and good for them if they're successful as you can't make money in the restaurant business without long hours and hard work.

I'd reccomend finding the Wood Oven Eats food truck one night. Just as good as HK, minus all the frills though. I know they're at Hops and Hollers on Saturdays.

Sounds interesting, I'll look them up

I'll say that KTown for pizza is fantastic. Wood-fire oven. What I really enjoy is that we do a hand-tossed dough instead of thin crust. I never jumped onto the thin crust bandwagon. It's almost like it makes wood-fire+hand tossed a novelty.

West Hills Flats and Taps is good.

They are at Schulzbrau a lot. This Friday they are tapping the new seasonal Hellis and Wood Fired will be there serving pizzas and German fare.

Good pizzas. I seem to eat them every couple weeks if we at the same spot.

Both locals are good, especially for wings.

I don't really get into flatbreads much, maybe because I can eat them everyday out of our work cafeteria.

Ooooooo. Makes my decision where to go this weekend. Sounds right up my alley.

I adore good wood fired pizza. If I could get a little thicker crust with that char on the end I would be in heaven.

I'm a Chicago style guy. I still miss uno out in Maryville.

You tried Rosati's on Papermill yet? It's pretty good. They have 20+ locations in Chicago.

I wish Uno's was still there. I went once or twice a year.

There's also a Rosati's in Cedar Bluff.

Or, my favorite, Stefano's.

I love Stefano's. I wish all three out west hadn't closed.

I have not my friend. I will put it on my list.

You sure you aren't confusing it with LaRosa's? I don't think there's is a 2nd location.

LaRosa's is decent and their coupons can be ok, but nothing real special about the joint.

Steffanos is great. Agree there. Pretty sure they still do a buffet on Tues/Wed around noon.

Yep, thanks. You're right. LaRosa's is Cincinnati (I believe) and Rosati's is Chicago.

Me too.

Where was the 4th one again?

Cedar Bluff next to the grocery store.
Bearden acrossish from Olive Garden.
The Strip

Village Green Shopping Center... KP at Campbell Station Road. There was one at a small college south on I-75 too... Sweetwater maybe.

I believe it's the Golden Home Ultra Thin Crust brand.

The next time I pick one up I'll take a pic. I get them at Dollar Tree and they're real thin and work great on the grill.

thanks

Ask for it. He can definitely move it around in the oven to get a little extra char, if you'd like

Reminds me of Brixx who couldn't make it in Turkey Creek. It was too expensive for what you were getting.

enjoy Memphis in May

I've never understood the love for Stefano's. I need to check our Rosalita's. The best pizza I've ever had has been in Chicago, so hopefully it's quality.
