Our all time favorite place in Knoxville. And pizza #8 is all time favorite on the menu. Our friends love their salads. They have something good and fresh for everyone. It's a must-visit for Knoxville. The outdoor seating area is right on the Market Square, so during good old pre-Covid times, you could also enjoy live music if you get there at the time of concerts.
