Lets start out, positively. The ambience is beautiful, modern, with high ceilings. Large windows display a great view. We ordered the barbecued chicken pizza. I ordered extra chicken. I see a girl putting on a smattering of little cubes (something that youd give to a very young baby who has a problem swallowing) which I quickly realize is, indeed, chicken.....Well, this is awkward....When shes done with putting on the "chicken" (I use the word loosely), I tell her that I paid for extra chicken, so could I please have more? She gives me this look and then begrudgingly throws more on.....Im thinking, 10 more little, diced-up pieces that wouldnt choke a fly. When we got our pizza, how do I describe it? It was like a slip of paper with nothing on it. I mean, you would need a magnifying glass---maybe a microscope---to make out what exactly IS on it. Since Im on a date, I keep quiet....even though my discreet husband knows exactly what Im thinking. I start to laugh because this is completely ludicrous. I use my fingers to pick up the "chicken." These pieces are too small for your average fork. Well, as Im eating this whatever, all I can taste is salt. There is no chickeny taste ANYWHERE. I look around the room to see how the customers are reacting to their entrees: My experience reminds me of the story of the Emperor who didnt wear any clothes and everyone is pretending that hes wearing an elegant outfit....Or its like the proverbial "elephant in the room." Why isnt anybody noticing these micromini things on their plates? This place wouldnt fly anywhere else. But here in Brentwood where the ladies are skinny, nobody cares! (BTW, Im 100 pds. Just sayin)

I can see the appeal, as it is like the Chipotle of pizza. The line moves fairly quickly and the pizzas cook fairly fast. However, we asked for half of our pizza to have Italian sausage and there were (at most) six small pieces on one corner of the pizza. I hesitantly asked for more to fill out that half, although Im not sure others would feel comfortable doing that. The servers seemed to be in such a hurry that there wasnt much care taken to each pizza. There isnt a great place to stand to wait for your pizza....just a gathering of people crowding the area where you pick up, getting in the way of others. The crust is incredibly thin and my 24-year-old son couldve eaten the entire thing easily. I bought a to-go salad for myself to help stretch the pizza for the family. It was the Beet & Goat Cheese" salad. I was excited about it, but when I got home and dumped it into a bowl, I was very disappointed. It was about two cups of greens (arugula) that were crammed into a to-go sandwich container. It came with only three thin slices of beets and MAYBE 1 oz. of tiny goat cheese crumbles. I had to add my own fixings at home to make all of the greens edible. They also did not have any information available for the calorie counts on the salads except for online. That made it difficult to make a decision on the spot, as I am watching my calories. The positive is that the ingredients seem fresh, the workers are friendly and the place has a hip vibe. However, I probably wont be back.

Man, this is my favorite pizza joint in all of Nashville. Great tasting pizza and inexpensive. Families love this place, so beware at dinner if you arent one--things are noisy--although it almost always is. This place is almost always packed, but its large enough and they make the food in just a few minutes so the turnover isnt too long. I suggest customizing your own pizza. I havent like their combinations, but Im a bit picky. :) They have amazing options and you can put as much as you want on a pizza. Most people eat all of their pizza, but I cant only eat about two-thirds. But its just as good heated in a toaster oven. Great atmosphere. Parking is horrible for everything around there during lunch. Thats been a real detractor for me. It gets old fast. Dinner hours, it still fills up, but you arent walking seemingly for blocks.

The food here is good and the service is even better. My family comes here often. On the most recent visit yesterday, they made a small mistake of overcooking one of the pizzas. We didnt even know there was an issue. When my wife walked up, they let her her know that they were automatically making a new pizza, gave her half of the pizza that was still okay so that we could get started eating and gave her a gift card for a free pizza on the next visit. That was great proactive customer service! Its a little pricey for our family of 5 vs going to another pizza chain. However, each person gets a pizza custom made the way they want it. This is a very popular lunch spot. Parking is limited so I recommend getting here early or carpooling.

Tried this new pizza place for the first time this weekend. It was amazing! What a great concept. Its like Subway for freshly made pizza. They start with fresh dough and you select your choice of sauces (I liked the spicy red!) and a host of toppings, including artichoke, fresh basil, fresh mozzarella, spinach, olives, meatballs, bacon, etc. They offer gluten-free crust and vegan cheese as well, so very friendly to all types of eaters. Best of all, each pizza only takes 3 minutes to cook. And at only $7.95 per 11-inch personal pizza (no limit on toppings), its no more expensive than your typical burger and fries lunch. This will definitely be a regular eating spot for us.

Bummer. We tried for over 20 mins to get the online ordering system to work, but kept getting an error message. Called the store to place the order online and the store cant take pick up orders over the phone, only via the website, according to the person that answered the phone. She told me they must be updating the system and to just keep trying, but that there was no way she could place my order over the phone- they just dont do that. So, tried online again and still didnt work. So wont be trying any time soon! Gave up and lost interest.

This is my favorite place to eat lunch in the area. Its one of those "build your own pizza" places where you pick ingredients in line. Get there early cause theres a line out the door 15 minutes after they open. The line moves quickly, though, as long as theres not that ONE person there who acts like theyve never seen a pizza before. "Whats this? Pepperoni? Interesting! And this? Oh olives! Bizarre! And this...?" Lady youre not adopting a child JUST PICK PEPPERONI PIZZA AND MOVE ON! Also, the blood orange drink is off the hook.

Love this place. The first one my wife and son went to was in Bowling Green KY. It was amazingly good. We found out there is another location about 30 minutes away from us in Brentwood TN. Please open a location in Murfreesboro TN.. It would do really good here. we will still travel to Brentwood for some pizzas! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a really good pizza at a pretty low cost. I would like to see more choices in beer and a little less expensive in the beer department.
