Another NEW pizza place in Nashville, and this one in East Nashville...woohoo!. After Months of waiting, Five Points Pizza is FINALLY open. Day of I called to order a pie...wah wah... no take out. Bummer. The reason for no take out is apparently to give them time to get their system down and they want to give dine in customers the best experience they possibly can. I can appreciate the care they want to give their customers. Hopefully Take Out will be available soon. I decided to try a slice of cheese yesterday for lunch. I figured if they are really focusing on giving good service, pizza etc, that it probably won't get any better than this, right? I ordered the slice, which was $3.25 and not that big for a NY slice (a cheese slice at Manny's is $2.35). I grabbed the bag, got in my car and headed home. I was very excited after reading numerous reviews of the best pizza in Tennessee etc. I think my expectations were a bit too high. I really loved the crust. I thought it was a perfect thickness, the bottom had a crunch, while the end crust still had some chew. The flavor , however, was decent but hardly the best in town. It reminded me an awful lot of Sbarro in taste. I feel that East Nashville finally has a decent tasting pizza. To me Five Points Pizza is a much better option than, Roma, Pizzareal, Castrillo's, Italia or any of the other pizza offerings in East Nashville. For New York style Pie, however, there is much better pizza in town. Manny's House of Pizza is still the king located right over the bridge from east nashville in the arcade..ALWAYS consistent, always great. A close second to Manny's is NY Pie, a great new pizza joint located in Nashville West. Knead Dough Pizzeria in Hendersonville is probably above Five Points in flavor, however, Five Points definitely has them beat on crust. Five Points Pizza is also a more expensive option than any of it's better tasting competitors. It will be interesting to see how consistent Five Points Pizza continues to be. To me this is the determining factor to a great pizza joint. I want to know that every pizza I get from a pizzeria will taste exactly the same. This is one reason why Manny's is still king. He has a great pizza and an amazingly consistent pizza (partly due to the fact that Manny makes all his pizzas).. my experience with NY Pie has also been pretty consistent. Once Five Points offers carry out I am sure they will do a lot more business. One truly great thing about FPP is their hours... they are open til midnight most nights of the week and open til 2 am on Friday and Saturday. So when all your favorite pizza joints are closed but your still hankerin for some pizza... you can call FFP and get some pretty decent foldable pie. read more

I love this pizza. We always get "The Dave" which is a simple prosciutto and basil pizza. Delish. Service is always fast and the beer is ice cold. Lots of local drafts. I just wish they delivered! read more

Five Points is always awesome. The staff is always super nice, fast, and on top of it, even when there's a huge line at the window. I've never had anything but perfect service and a great experience. Also, the pizza is something I dream about. read more

Ridiculously good pizza especially if you are into crust texture and unique topping combos. My go-to is Gorgonzola, Habernero Cream Sauce, Pineapple & Roasted Red Pepper. It's amazing read more

Easily, and I do mean easily, the best Za in the Ville. The beer list is great, the hipster vibe is cool but unpretentious. The service is good and the pizza is great. I've had many a pizza, New York, Chicago, Naples and what these guys do is pristine. So don't wonder why it's always busy, just go try it and you'll understand. I mean absolutely fantastic. read more

This place is awesome! The server was just ok. The atmosphere was just ok. But the quality of the pizza makes up for all of it. The crust, perfect. The variety of pizzas to choose from, perfect. I love not having a small number of pizzas to choose from and then having to build my own. I'm not a cook. I can't think of what goes well together. Isn't that your job? And boy, they do their joy well. Tons of options that are original and make your pizza palate rejoice. If only we lived closer... read more

Ordering late night food. Pizza is good but they only offer cheese and pepperoni after midnight that's a pretty weak offering for a place that's rated 5 stars. And no calzones after midnight what!!!!! read more

One of the best pizza we had. The people were fun. Huge slices. Do try therir cheese pizza. This place had alot of Seattle vibe :D

Now That's GOOD Pizza! After waiting for what seemed like months in anticipation, 5 Points Pizza is finally open & it was well worth the wait. We went in around 8pm on a Sunday, and the place was still packed, but we were able to get a seat immediately. The first thing we noticed was the amazing smell- wafts of garlic and bread filled the space. If the food was as good as the smell, we were in for a treat. The beer selection was good, with a mix of draft and bottles.We originally ordered the Antipasto Platter as an appetizer, but they had run out of many of the ingredients due to the high volume of the first week (a good problem to have). We chose the Garlic Knots instead and they did not disappoint. Hot, buttery and flecked with lots of fresh garlic. The real star here though was (as it should be) the pizza! Dave's Pie was the perfect mix of Salty Prosciutto, gooey cheese, tangy tomato sauce, and finished with a some fresh basil. The crust is perfect- thin, but not to thin, slightly crunchy, yet chewy. Service was good, and the waitstaff was all friendly and attentive. We will be back soon, and we will be back often. You should join us- you can thank me later! read more

Went to this pizza place with high expectations...left with my hands and face covered in grease. It was literally the greasiest pizza I have ever eaten and I like greasy pizza. It was so bad that my friend and I who are pizza fanatics and have never left a slice uneaten were both done after eating 2 slices of an 18" We both felt like shit after because of literally eating dripping wet pizza All of the waiters wear skinny jeans and think they are cool because they call the customers "dude" Make sure to wear a sweatshirt because they blast the AC even if it's pouring rain outside Also a fly was bothering us the whole time Was considering a move to the music city prior to eating here, but if this pizza is the best Nashville has to offer, I'm straight. read more

$3 pizza by the slice with fresh basil? A steal! The garlic knots use good EVOO and freshly chopped garlic, but you only need the half order. Plenty of food. Will return! read more

my boyfriend was wanting NY style pizza so we wandered in on a beautiful January day and really loved this place! We had a salad, garlic knots and a large pizza, half cheese, half pepperoni.. yeah not very adventurous but there were so many slices we wanted to try.. loved all the different selections of pizza that was offered.. Can't wait to go back! read more

The pizza is phenomenal. I really like the pizza, but the crust was a little burnt. I know everyone likes different style, but it would be nice if the crust was softer read more

Moving from NY, pizza means a lot to me. So I was suspect when we came across this place because so far the other pizza places in this state have been horrible. BUT here I must say the pizza is pretty good. We ordered a pie which wasn't bad but I would recommend ordering by the slice. Huge difference. By the slice is much better than ordering a pie. We sat at the bar so the server Cain, he was pretty cool told us some cool places to check out. Will be back here. read more

as we say in the south, Git Yo Ass down here! When I heard there was a pizza joint in 5 points that served pizza by the slice and was New York style I had to check this place out. I kinda consider myself a pizza nerd so you really have to impress me when it comes to a slice of pizza. 2nd night opening, crowded when I drove by and I really wondered if they had beer available. Rest assured beer nerds, they have beer available with several wonderfully prepared slices of pie and you can order the whole pie if you chose. Typical new business joint in the area, seating was limited but there was a bar and I quickly found a seat. When I sat down the 2 ladies behind the bar,quickly offered me a menu and took my drink order. I glanced at the menu and ordered a piece of sausage and red pepper and a Fat tire from the tap. the pizza arrived quickly and was rather large in size, perfectly prepared an delicious. The sauce was excellent and just the right about of cheese and toppings. I had to cut it down to size with a knife........and I hate that, fold it and eat it! I like a thinner crust and the crust was just right, crispy and layered with goodness. i talked in depth to Tara about ingredients, local farmers markets and cheese..... they really got this down. I really enjoyed my time there, ordered to go and will be back, probably this weekend! Believe me, if you are tired of substandard pie, order up here............. maybe delivery is soon to come. Who would have thought to open a pizza joint that sell pizza by the slice and stays open late in the middle of all these bars? GENIOUS!!! Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Ordered take out on a busy Friday night and they only took 40 mins to have our order ready. The staff is very nice and always willing to help and answer any questions. The Vegan cheese they offer is the best around for the pizza. Having a spouse that is extremely lactose intolerant pizza is usually something that we cannot get together. But the vegan cheese passes for real cheese well and both were able to enjoy a meal together. The Vodka Sauce pizza is by far my favorite. It gets very crowded, but that is just a testament to the quality of the pies being served there. read more

Unfortunately we went to Nash on Memorial day weekend and it was sooo hard to find a decent spot to eat without a 2 hour wait. We stumbled upon Five Points and l was super happy to have food in my belly! The pizza was very good and we really enjoyed the beer flights. I have to give it 4 stars because I was sweating like a pig the entire time trying to enjoy my dinner. We sat the bar so I guess it's because we were closer to the kitchen. Also, the bartender was a little short and not that "sociable" I guess. Either way, that was pretty much the only non-enjoyable aspects of this restaurant! read more

So glad I stopped here on recommendation from a friend. The pizza is outstanding! You can get it by the slice or whole--the flavor, texture and crust are indescribable. The one with sliced meatballs was my favorite--but we'll be back to try more! read more

The red sauce pizza is better than the white. The restaurant is very small, so get there early if you have a crowd, lots a craft beers on draft. I'll try it again, but I'm not sure I would recommend it to others. read more

At Five Points, you have the option of sitting down and eating inside the restaurant, ordering in their "kitchen" area and sitting at a bar and eating, OR ordering at the window and taking your pizza to go (I'm not sure if window ordering is available all the time). I love that they give you so many options to grab a slice. They also offer a great daily special slice, both in meat and vegetarian options. I've had their veggie pizza with vodka sauce and fresh basil and it was hands down one of THE best slices I've ever had, and I lived in New York for a few years. Their whole pies are massive; I ordered a half pesto and half Supreme pie in 18" for Mother's Day and it was huuuuuge. Their pizza is fresh, hot, and delicious and made with high quality ingredients. Five Points' fresh basil game is on point. I have to say, though, that my favourite thing is the garlic knots: golden all over, crispy on the bottom, doughy and exquisite in the center, tossed in really good olive oil and lots of garlic and Parmesan, topped with fresh basil, and served with a side of their amazing marinara. They were so, so, SO good. I felt like I had major garlic breath for at least the next few hours, but it was absolutely worth it. My mom and I split a large order of garlic knots and ordered an 18" pie for Mother's Day....I would suggest splitting some knots and just ordering a slice or two each. They're very filling. Those garlic knots are SO STUPID GOOD that I would literally physically assault someone if they tried to take one away from me. read more

See all

Super friendly service from all. Great thin crust and a nice on tap selection. Loved it

Yuck. Hands down the worst pizza I've ever had. Very bland. It's all presentation and no taste. Will not be going back here.

I'm not sure why this place has received so many rave reviews. Since we're new to the area and were longing to find a local pizza place we ordered a large, half cheese and half pepperoni pizza from Five Points. We figured that if we liked the basics we could try something more adventurous in the future. The entire pizza can be summed up in one word: bland. The crust was thin and tasted like cardboard. The sauce was bland and there wasn't enough of it. The cheese also had zero flavor and again, there wasn't enough of it either. We were thoroughly disappointed. I love pizza and there have been only 2 occasions in my life when I have been unable to enjoy a pizza and didn't want to eat it. Sadly, Five Points was one of those times. I guess if you're a Nashville native this is your place to go for great pizza but as Nashville newbies we'll keep looking. P.S. if you're ever going to Cleveland, Ohio check out Antonio's Pizza for a great, award winning pizza. read more

I like this place, but I find it a bit overrated. As someone from the Northeast, I'm familiar with a lot of different types of slices and the ones at Five Points are certainly good, but if you've ever had a large slice before you're probably not going to be blown away. Furthermore, I expected more from the garlic knots as they were a bit dry. Again, they were good, but I've had better, and wouldn't get them again. The location was fine, but it's a pizza place, the venue isn't going to make or break the experience. Maybe next time I'll try one of the more interesting slices/pies. read more

Damn good pizza, New Style pepperoni slice for $3.50. Also the habanero cream sauce was a great on my pizza.

SO good!! We got the basic mozzarella, tomato and basil with the garlic knots. Incredible pizza. The garlic knots are a must try!

Pizza and service we excellent but the cost of a soda was way high so go ahead and get a beer or just drink water. Clean restrooms and overall good vibe. read more

I've now been three times and the pizza was very good but the value for what you get is missing. I'm tired of East Nashville being the place where people feel they can open restaurants that are a little overpriced and get away with it. I live in Lockeland Springs and want to eat in East Nashville. My biggest complaint is that a slice of pizza should not be $3.50 especially for the size you get. If it were a large ny style slice but tasted like "five points pizza" perhaps, I would gladly pay that because one slice is a meal. Instead my bill for 2 slices and a soda is about $10. I recently went to my first Preds game a week ago and bought a slice of pizza there. It was 50% bigger and cost $5, so basically the same price. A slice of five points pizza is way better than Bridgestone pizza but neither should cost more than $2.50 in the real world. read more

Really enjoyed the food here. My parents and I got the Zues pizza and the garlic knots and can I just say OMG. Delicious. I love the garlic knots so much I wanted to eat them all right then and there. The pizza was huge and the slices where big I love that and the pizza itself tasted great. We took the left overs home for dinner. Just great food. Loved the inside of the place too. I wish it was a Tad bigger felt a little close and crowded but I loved it it was my first time ever being there and I left happy. read more

Best pizza!! You have to come here and try anything. Staff was really friendly and nice. So glad we came last night of our Tennessee vacation read more

This was my first time going to this place for some pizza and when i tell you that they pizza, garlic knots are the BOMB they are !!!! I been here 3 years and never had good pizza like that. I would recommend this to anyone that love a pizza or especially a New York Style pizza. My fiancé has good taste in pizza. And everyone that works there was so friendly and making guest feel welcomed. read more

This was my first stop in Nashville, and so far I must say, "I'm impressed!" I went off the recommendation of the bartender (Michael) for both beer and the pizza, and both knocked it out of the park. Very friendly vibe, and great knowledge about the food and drinks. It sounds like they even made some recent changes based on customer feedback. Nice to know people listen, but in my mind... don't change a thing! read more

SUCH GOOD PIZZA. Crust was amazing and the service was very pleasant and quick! Perfect spot to grab a late night since of pizza before heading home. read more

I like that they serve single slices. Other than that. Nothing to write home about. So that will be the only reason to go back. I am very picky about my pizza and how it should taste. Flavorable! read more

WOW!! Absolutely incredible pizza!! We took several others' advice and got the T-Rex and it was SOOO delish. Perfect amount of toppings and the red sauce is to die for. I could eat there again already!! Skip Joey's and go here. You will not be disappointed!! read more

A great late night snack! We went to the take out side next to the restaurant. It was busy but the line moved pretty fast. I got the cheese pizza. It was good and even better with the vodka sauce! My only wish is that there would be more options. Cheese pizza is usually a little boring to me, but I don't eat beef so the meat pizzas were not an option. Their one veggie pizza looked good, but didn't really interest me with the toppings. If you are in the area and are craving pizza or want a late night snack, definitely stop here! read more

They gots themselves a damn good slice at Five Points, take it from a Northern New Jersey transplant.... and the garlic knots... garlicky pillows from heaven... read more

Wow. Compliments all around. Pizza was amazing. We could tell the ingredients were house made. Salad was fresh. Keep up the good work.

Best pizza in town. You are entitled to your own opinion but if you disagree you're wrong.

We are from NY and came here to try this place recommended by a few locals...well it was probably one of the best slices I've eaten in a long time! And the garlic knots are amazing... a must try! Exceeded our expectations 10 fold and wish we could shop back a pie and a side of knots! Make sure you check this place out!! read more
