00:00All right, pizza review time.

00:21Maybe the most complicated pizza review ever.

00:25These are slices.

00:27And we got another potato one in there.

00:29This is spicy tomato.

00:31This is their classic.

00:34We're at St. Vito Focaccia area in Nashville.

00:39I'm in town for WITCON.

00:42Hopefully the game went over by the time you see this.

00:45It may be like the S.I.

00:47Cover Juice.

00:48Like it just may be.

00:49Yeah, like we're just not going to get a nice Conway ever.

00:54I don't even know how to eat it.

00:55They're like, do you want me to put it in plates?

00:58And I'm like, do whatever you want to do.

01:00Do you want me to hold them?

01:03No, no, I'm good.

01:04This is the potato one.

01:05This is the guy's restaurant.

01:06He wants me to try the potato, which is potato into cheese.

01:11I'll put them here.

01:12No one's coming.

01:14He opened this about a year and a half.

01:15He used to be fine down in Gulf Fight.

01:16How long have you guys been here for?

01:17We've been open a year and a half, but I started this as a pop-up out of my house.

01:18Oh, nice.

01:19In 2011.

01:20Got fired.

01:21I was supposed to cook it, and I got let go and ate Spiconi style pizza when I was a kid.

01:28And I was like, fuck it, let's do business.

01:33How's it been going?

01:35Pretty good.

01:36This is, how do you eat this, Austin?

01:39How do you eat it?

01:40This is on a focaccia.

01:43It's not overly super hot either, which is weird because it just came out.

01:47Go down to the counter.

01:49Just go.

01:51This is just go.

01:54It is hot.

02:03When in doubt, just go.

02:07I mean, thumb's getting burned in the focaccia hole.

02:20Is this pizza?

02:22He said right away, he's like, this will be a little different.

02:24It's all my face and my beard, all of it, I assume.

02:29This is a fork and knife.

02:30You shouldn't be eating it like how I'm eating it.

02:35It's very good.

02:3611 a.m. on a Saturday, tiny bit heavy.

02:44This has no other scale.

02:46You need a fork and knife to sit down.

02:48Glass of wine, super nice on the inside.

02:51It's good.

02:55I'd give it an 8.1, but this isn't like a pizza.

02:58I don't know if you can make...

03:01Can you make a scale that says, not really pizza?

03:04Because this isn't really pizza.

03:05You can't compare.

03:06This is just like, oh, this is good.

03:08I'll sit down, fork and knife, eat it, enjoy.

03:10Glass of wine, cheers.

03:11How you doing?

03:12Tell me how your day was, honey.

03:13But it's not like pizza.

03:14If you can't eat with your hand, I don't know if you can say it's really pizza.

03:18Here's the spicy.

03:21How the hell am I supposed to eat this thing?

03:27What a way to start.

03:36Nope.

03:38Spicier.

03:40Same score.

03:42And now...

03:45You really want me to try the potato.

03:48I'm like, dude, I just woke up.

03:50I don't want the potato.

03:52But he's like, please do the potato.

03:54Alright, potato.

03:56How do you eat this? Just go?

04:10And as always, when people force...

04:14the non-cheese down my throat,

04:16I prefer the others.

04:17This is good, but I don't...

04:18I mean, that is not pizza.

04:20And they're roasting the potatoes, doing this, and people come...

04:22Do I have it on me?

04:23I feel like it's on me.

04:26I'd recommend this place here in Nashville.

04:28Very different.

04:29I've had 9,000 pizza reviews.

04:30I've never had anything like this.

04:32People come and I'm all self-conscious with my face.

04:37Nice guys.

04:38Saint Vito Focaccia.

04:39They gave me all the plates.

04:40They didn't give me napkins.

04:41I can't even like offer them.

04:45Oh, my face.

04:48I got you.

04:49You guys weren't kidding.

04:50This is a sit-down fork and knife situation.

04:52Really good.

04:53Different.

04:54This is what a whole pie looks like here.

04:58Like all of them.

05:00So how much do you charge for a whole pie?

05:02Between $40 and $45.

05:04$40 and $45, that makes sense.

05:05It's huge.

05:06I don't even know why I put you guys...

05:07I don't know if you're going to say this is an insult...

05:09or compliment.

05:10I don't even know why I say it's pizza.

05:13It's a very specific style of Sicilian pie that comes out of Palermo.

05:17Palermo?

05:18Yeah, my family is Sicilian immigrants.

05:21I didn't realize I ate this style of pizza until I was reading a book.

05:25I really liked it.

05:28This is sit-down fork and knife.

05:30Ten napkins.

05:31But really good.

05:32Really artistic.

05:33I thought it was very good.

05:34It's totally different.

05:35I've never had really anything quite like it.

05:37That's what we tell everybody.

05:38Yeah.

05:39You're not lying.

05:40I just got upset about some of the dough making this morning.

05:43I'm like, the reason people come here is because you literally can't get this anywhere else.

05:47And we have to be on top of making our dough.

05:49This is my favorite.

05:51Dough, sauce, all of it.

05:53What a thing.

05:56Looks like an egg sandwich on pasta on fazool.

05:59Very nice.

06:00Nice to meet you.

06:01Nice to meet you.

06:02Very cool.

06:03See you.
