The Crushed Tomato — Restaurant in Summerville

We visited on Wed Nov 8th at about 5 pm. I didn't go in, but the pizza was absolute heaven! We got an 18" half and half [note that to get half and half at this size you must go to one of their stores]. Maggie got the Philly Cheesesteak and I got Rattlesnake [BBQ Chicken with Jalapenos but I got it without the peppers]. We also got ice cream and mine was Turtle Tracks. Maggie loved the Philly Cheesesteak pizza! I really loved my Rattlesnake Pizza! BBQ sauce was spicy and flavorful, and enough without overpowering the pizza. And, oh, what yummy pizza! The crust was crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Perfectly cooked. Our order was ready fairly quickly even though Maggie didn't order online, so this was in-person. I sat in the van 'cause I was really tired. But, getting into the store wouldn't have been a problem for my walker if I had gone in. I got a couple pictures outside in the parking lot, and Maggie got all of the indoor pictures. Food pix, I took them at home because we got dinner to go. The turtle tracks ice cream pleased me very much. Tasty and I do love any kind of 'tracks' in my ice cream. When I saw the pictures of inside I really want to go in next trip and see it for myself. Awesome piece of history, and they also have a brick oven. Which just makes their pizza taste even better! I highly recommend this place. Parking is easy and there is a handicapped space right beside the building on the way to the parking lot. I really love the atmosphere and Maggie said the staff were helpful and friendly. Definitely want to go back! The main picture from the parking lot shows the handicapped parking space between where we parked and the building. The parking lot itself is gravel but well-maintained. There is a sidewalk leading to the entrance. I also took a picture of a post-like object because I was curious about it. It is a PIV and is for the sprinkler system. So when Summerville Cotton Mill was here, it needed to be present for that. It's such an...

We stopped by for dinner as we were driving through to Alabama. This place looks very unassuming from the outside and if you're not from Summerville, like us, you'd miss it when driving by. The outside looks like a rundown old brick building. Very little signage. But we were very pleasantly surprised when we walked it. This quaint little pizza place didn't disappoint! The atmosphere was very charming and country. The walls were decorated with vintage items and had a old country fair feel to it all. When we walked in, we were told to choose our table and someone would be right with us. Our drink orders were taken quickly and we were given just the right amount of time to look over our menus and decide what to order. We ordered the garlic rolls and we each got a 10" pizza so that we could choose our own. My husband got the Godzilla and I got the chicken bacon ranch. The ordered took a little bit extra time to get to us, but not too long. When our waitress brought our pizzas, I mentioned that I thought our garlic rolls would come out first. She responded they should have and without hesitation said she'd go grab them and offered to take them off our meal. Something I wasn't expecting but appreciated as excellent service. The pizzas were fresh from the oven hot. And oh so good! The perfect balance of crunch and brick oven taste in the crust. My husband really enjoyed the spicyness of the Godzilla and I loved the pesto on mine. I would only change the ranch drizzle on top, it needed to be a thicker and not so spread out like icing, but no other complaints. We were hoping to stop by again when we're driving back from Alabama but they were closed, much to our disappointment. We definitely will stop again there when we go though Summerville. Maybe next time we'll try ice cream. It looked so yummy and hand scooped the old fashioned way. 5 out of 5 stars...

WOW ! What a great place to dine in. We're from Dalton and on the way back from Weiss lake and past this building and my wife asked did I see the pizza joint. I asked her does she want me to sight see or drive. Lol.... So I turned around and went inside and only to find such wonderful people. Extremely kind with wonderful smile's. Very clean and our waitress was fabulous. Took our order, and was cooked in a reasonable time. The pizza was great and did I mention that they have a huge selection of different types of pizza. When finished they also have a old fashion ice cream shop there. My wife got the cherry chunk on a sugar cone and said it was heaven. Well we will be back in the very near future. So it was clean, great food, wonderful waitress, awesome atmosphere. Thanks for a...
