Authentic Chicago Pizza in the Heart of Nashville

Taste the legendary thin crust and deep dish that transplants swear is better than home

About Us

312 Pizza Company brings the soul of Chicago to Nashville's historic Germantown neighborhood. Named after Chicago's iconic area code, we craft every pie using time-honored recipes passed down through generations. Our thin-crust tavern pies deliver that signature crispy, square-cut perfection, while our deep-dish pies emerge from the oven with layers of cheese, chunky tomato sauce, and buttery, golden crust. Owner Alexander personally greets guests, sharing stories behind each recipe that have been perfected over decades. The intimate dining room buzzes with the aroma of slow-simmered sauce and bubbling mozzarella. Whether you're a Chicago expat craving that authentic taste or a Nashville local discovering Midwest pizza culture, every bite transports you. We source our ingredients with care, using premium sausage from the Windy City and vine-ripened tomatoes for sauce that sings.

What We Offer

Dive into our legendary thin-crust tavern pizzas, cut into crispy squares and loaded with classic toppings like Italian sausage, giardiniera, and aged mozzarella. Our deep-dish pies arrive piping hot with that famous Chicago-style crust, layered with cheese beneath chunky tomato sauce. Beyond pizza, savor Italian beef sandwiches dripping with savory jus, crisp Caesar salads, and classic appetizers like toasted ravioli and cheesy garlic bread. Our full bar pours ice-cold local brews alongside Chicago favorites, making us the perfect spot for game days, family dinners, or date nights. Takeout and delivery keep the authentic flavors coming to your door, while our cozy dining room welcomes walk-ins and reservations alike.

"The BEST pizza anywhere! It even blows away the pizza we had in Chicago. The owner, Alexander, was incredibly friendly and personally greeted us at our table. He shared that their recipes have been passed down for multiple generations and are made with fresh ingredients, and the food truly proves it! Our server, Lilly, was so kind and attentive and never let our drinks get empty. I can’t recommend this place enough!"

"We went during a weekday for a late lunch. Was not very busy which allowed the staff time to be attentive and very personable. We ordered a Chicago deep dish pepperoni and sausage with mushrooms. I have been to Chicago on a few occasions and always went to eat deep dish at least once. Although I am somewhat limited in my deep dish expertise I am familiar enough to know what to expect. I was not disappointed and was pleasantly pleased with the pizza. Sauce was not overwhelming and worked well with the toppings. The cheese was top notch and complemented well. Of the Chicago deep dish adventures I have had in Nashville 312 comes out on top!"

"Saw a video on Facebook of the place and honestly I was expecting a lot from. Understandable enough, I was flabbergasted when I entered the place because it did smell great, it gave me nostalgia and the environment was good. When ordered, our server did say that ordering a deep dish pizza would take 45min to 1hr. Okay, no worries I'm here for the hype. I ordered this one purple beer that tasted amazing, also ordered an Italian sandwich that was good too, this was brought within 10-15 min we ordered. 1 hr passes, 2 hrs passes, 3 hrs passes and finally the pizza was brought. Presentation wise, looked good in my opinion but besides that it did taste mid."
