SKYKING PIZZA

I came to this restaurant with a group of 7 on a Friday night. While we knew we would be waiting for a table for a while because we were a large group and they are understandably busy on a Friday night, what we were not expecting was for a waiter to tell us the wait would be 20 min, then lead us on for an additional 2 hours. They would seat other large groups who arrived after us before us and then tell us we would be seated next. This happened not once, but twice. Twice they seated another large group who had not been there for as long as us first and lied to our face multiple times saying that the wait would only be a few minutes or that we would be seated next. I can’t even say anything about the pizza because the service was so terrible that we left without being served. If you are in a group of more than 4 or 5 people, do not even attempt to eat here, because you will be ignored.

Really loved the small town charm of this place, can not believe that we have lived here for some time and haven’t stopped by. Big mistake, this was the best pizza I have had from a brick oven joint. It was fresh and the staff was great.

Pizza is really great, fresh ingredients and all that. Love the cookie skillet dessert, too. Skyking is a really cool spot in our cute little town of Kingston Springs. I have tentative dates with several friends that I want to take there. Sometimes there are hiccups in service; sometimes the people are super nice and others are a bit rude on the phone. Overall, there are some friendly folks working there and the prices are reasonable for the quality too.

By far the best pizza I have ever had! We are so lucky that it is so close to us! When I am out of town I dream of this place! Warm friendly atmosphere with the best staff and owners ever! Soooo good!

Probably the best pizza in middle Tennessee. You won’t be disappointed. Don’t forget to try the cookie skillet.

Incredibly delicious pizza. Possibly the best pizza in Nashville– I also like Soulshine Pizza and Two Boots pizza– and Skyking is just as good– if not better. Fresh ingredients, great service, great flavors. FYI they only ever have like 4 beers on draft so if you’re looking for a wide beer selection, this isn’t the place. Also they don’t have plates, you just eat off napkins basically. Also they are only open for dinner. There is a coffee shop connected to Skyking but it’s only open for like 2 hours a day 3 days a week, so I’ve never been able to try it. I wish I could eat Skyking pizza every day for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Delicious Pizza, made to order and baked in a wood fired pizza oven the owner ordered from Italy! Crispy thin crust, yum.
I enjoyed a Caprese salad, the Skyking Pizza with a Pecan ale, all of which were great!
They have a good beer selection as well.

A delightful and tasty surprise tucked away in Nashville’s backdoor. Service was great! Thin crust pizza at its finest. And the chocolate chip skillet cookie and ice cream were the finishing touches to an amazing dinner evening with friends in such a clean and family-​friendly atmosphere.
We will definitely be back and ordering my own skillet cookie next time. no more sharing. I get my own next time.

Outstanding pizza and dessert. Great staff. Wood fired oven, hand tossed, excellent topping, and reasonably priced. Worth the drive.

Dang, that’s good pizza! They specialize in thin crust gourmet pizzas. They cure their own meats and have a plethora of veggies and special toppings. I don’t usually get excited about pizza, but this is an exception. They know what they are doing!
You wouldn’t expect such a modern, nice space in little olé’ Kingston Springs. There is lots of exposed brick, an open kitchen, and a very urban feel to it. They also serve fancy coffees, which I haven’t tried but want to return to give those a whirl. As well as gelato, I believe.
This is a serious gem!

This place is a few miles off rt 40 but if you are traveling and don’t want typical fast food this place is WELL worth the few minutes drive. The pizza is hand tossed and wood fired. It’s delicious and there are lots of unique pizza flavors to choose from. The desserts are fab and the ambiance is great. Service was fast and super friendly. We stumbled upon it and are so glad we did! We’d be here weekly if we lived nearby.

We just keep going back to this place. So fortunate to have such a fun spot in our small town. We’ve probably tried just about every pizza, including specials, and they’re always delicious. Any pizza with goat cheese is amazing in my book. Salads are bomb, dessert skillets are too. We can always enjoy a beer and just relax, even when they’re super busy.
And service is always great! Shout out to Liz and Phoenix, you guys are awesome.

Amazing Pizza, staff and the most delicious dessert!
Drove 30 minutes and it was well worth it.

We stopped here last Friday night. The restaurant is gorgeous; the servers were friendly; and the pizza was delicious! We had the «Skyking» pizza, and the ricotta cheese made it out of this world. So good. Can’t wait to go back. The only thing that could’ve made it just a bit better is if the crust had been seasoned. Some garlic-​y goodness on the bottom of the pie would’ve rocked my world.

Best pizza I’ve ever had. Very unique atmosphere. It feels like you’re in East Nashville. Great place!

Everything was sooooooo good. From the minute you walk in and smell the oven. Our waiter I’m bad with names but he just moved anyway he was awesome.
Now the pizza so good I even ate the crust and I normally never eat the crust. I’m also a fan of salt, however this pizza was perfection I got the Goforth no salt needed.
GO HERE!

We had the most amazing experience at Sky King tonight. I’m a chaperone on a high school band trip to Nashville. The asst director found Sky King on Unilocal and it was near our activity. The AD corresponded with the owners for weeks to make sure they could accommodate us. We called in our order ahead of time but wanted to eat in. The pizzas were being placed on tables as we arrived. It was perfect!
We ordered 25 pizzas and at least one of each on the menu. They were hot and light with a thin crispy crust. The bread does not overwhelm the toppings. The toppings were unique and also tasty. We also ordered house salads with this crazy good vinegarette dressing. Some ordered desserts and they were great too.
If you’re in the neighborhood, or even if you’re not, check out Sky King. They are worth the drive!

I was a little hesitant on thinking his pizza is as good as everyone says. Desano’s is what I would say is some of the best pizza in Nashville. However, this place is really good as well just in a different way. We had the Skyking and cheesy bread. Both were really yummy. I really wanted to try the chocolate chip cookie in a skillet but I couldn’t fit it in my stomach. I did get the Affogato– espresso over ice cream. It was good. The wait is a little long but we had good company to pass the time with. We will definitely go back. So glad to have a decent place to hang out with good food that is not in downtown.

Amazing pizza, amazing cozy interior and super friendly staff. Love seeing and smelling the brick oven. Sky King is great for takeout or dining in! I love their specialty pizzas like «The Bird» or «Selma», as well as the basic (and affordable) cheese, pepperoni or sausage.
Also super excited that they are now open mornings for coffee bar!
Kingston Springs is really fortunate to have such a hip, cultural and delicious restaurant!

fun, friendly and delicious
haven’t had a bad slice yet
