The Holy City might be known for some good old shrimp ‘n grits + she crab soup, and pizza may not be the first thing that comes to mind. That doesn’t mean there aren’t some really good options.
We did some digging to find a few of the best local pizza spots around town and we’re sharing the knead-to-knows.
