    You don't just stumble into Pizza Nomad at the Center of New England. You're probably making a Walmart run, picking up mulch at Home Depot, or getting dragged into BJ's for a "quick" thing that turns into 84 dollars and a tray of muffins. But if you ever tried it, you might find yourself pulling in. Just for a slice. Inside, there's a couple of tables, steel chairs, gray walls, and a full suit of medieval armor in the corner. Because, of course there is. The decor feels a bit like it's still under construction and not quite ready for prime time. The place just feels comfortable though. It knows what it's doing, doesn't need to even tell you about it. No exposed brick, no fancy bulbs, no ironic signs. Just pizza. And...the chips. Oh man, the chips. The surprise of the chef just coming out from the back to set down a tray of fresh, still-glistening potato chips. Doesn't say a word. Doesn't have to. They're super hot, they're impossibly crisp, they're perfectly salted. Not a gimmick, not a side dish you ordered. Just a way to say you're appreciated. Then the pizza comes a few minutes later. It isn't Neapolitan floaty. It's not a bar pie. It's somewhere in the middle. The crust's got that perfect char and blister, crunches at the edge, and stands out straight. It's kind of a hybrid of a crackery bar pie and a New York style. On the thin end of medium thick. It's built for flavor, not engineering. The cheese is front and center, but it's not a sloppy mess. It's balanced. The sauce cuts through clean and bright. And the pepperoni? Those little curled cups, glistening, with just enough spice to remind you why it's a classic. Nothing's fighting for the spotlight. Everything's working together. You can taste the thought that went into it. You eat it slow, not because you're trying to be fancy, but because you just want it to last. One pie is enough for two hungry people, maybe three if you're being polite. And the staff? No scripts. No fake cheerleading. Just real people moving like they've been doing this for years, and concerned about getting it right. They aren't polished, they're just nice. Across the street, another pizza place stares over at Nomad. And honestly, with that knight standing there? It feels like a budding culinary Highlander situation. There can be only one, Nomad. And for now, Nomad's got the high ground. The food's good, the welcome's warm, and those things add up to something that you remember. Go for the pizza. Stay for the chips. Try it and let me know what you think.

    We will be back and I highly recommend trying the Pizza Nomad if you're looking for a new pizza to try!! First time. Glad we chose to try this spot! Plenty of tables. Nice and friendly staff. We ordered a pizza and got the kids slices while we waited. Loved the fresh warm chips they brought to the table!! Pizza was well made - cooked perfect, nice and fluffy crust! Also there's two large tables for a larger group!

    I've tried pizza from this place three times in the time it's been open. I understand they have only just opened in the past month which is why I held off on leaving a review after my first few experiences have been negative. We had high expectations for this trendy pizza place offering an assortment of unique pizzas. My husband and I ordered pizza for a game night on the first night they opened. He called two hours ahead of time, but still had to wait 45 minutes when he got there. My husband said it was busy and chaotic. After he picked up the pizza and brought it to our friend's house, we were horrified to find a sticker on the underside of one of the pizzas. Our friend had taken a bite, and immediately spit out bits of paper which turned out to be an adhesive label on the bottom of it. Not sure how that got on the bottom of the pizza. We didn't call to complain, because we knew that it was incredibly busy that night. The second time we ordered pizza was a couple weeks ago. I ordered a vegetable pizza with spinach and several other toppings on it. The pizza was overloaded with the toppings to the point where it felt like I was eating a plate full of vegetables with a side of bread. I couldn't taste the white sauce, and there wasn't a lot of cheese. My husband ordered a gluten-free pizza. Because there aren't many pizza places in the area who offer gluten-free pizzas, we tried them again. His pizza was pretty good. The last time we got pizza was a few days ago, and we ordered the fried pickles and the nachos as a side. On the positive side, the portions were huge. On the negative side, they were grossly overcooked. We ended up throwing them out. We've been to the West Warwick location and have had better luck there. I sure hope Coventry location improves. I don't like to leave negative reviews, especially for a business just starting out, but hopefully they learn from their mistakes. We probably won't order again from them for at least a year so they can iron out the details and become better established. At that time, I'd be happy to update my review.

    We have ordered multiple times and have not had a bad experience yet. Each time we try a new pizza, our favorite so far is the General Tso.

    Out with hubby. I've been here before and really needed to share my experience with him…read more sosososo glad we came! We started with drinks, he got his usual beer, I opted for a Bloody Mary. Yummo Started with my fave, the Yakitori Platter. Marinated bamboo skewers brushed with yakitori sauce, I had; Bacon Leaks, Meatball, Kielbasa, and Shrimp You get to choose 4 Sticks and it's served over White Rice Drizzled with Yakitori sauce, THE BEST Asian fusion, EVER!!! Hubby had the Kim Chi meatball soup, the meatballs are so huge, it's a big bowl of soup, not for those who aren't hungry! We also, for good measure, got one of the signature SCALLION PANCAKE PIZZA!!! It's Topped with scallion and your choice of the following: * Meat Toppings*: Chicken, Beef, Pepperoni, Salami, Kielbasa, Bacon Bits, Salami * Pizza Toppings Olives, Banana peppers, Jalapenos, Tomatoes, Mushrooms, Green Peppers, Red Onion Make sure to get it with the yakatori sauce! (They do offer other sauces though.) The owner is also the server and he really knows his stuff. Food has been his passion all of his life as he grew up in the restaurant biz. His dad ran a well known and established Chinese restaurant in town until his retirement recently, he'd been in business for 50+ years!! The space is clean and comfortable. They also have Karaoke nights!! Heads up, they don't open until 4pm!!

    I ordered from door dash a few times and I also went inside to pick up my order- so I'll base my…read morereviews on that. I love that it's close by and I can get what I need fast. I love their bubble tea and I love their pepperoni cheese egg rolls! Those are the primary things I get here. I love me a good bubble tea and they have really good flavors (lychee has been my go too lately), and the egg rolls they are delicious! Me and my fiancé went inside to grab 2 bubble teas the other day. There's enough parking which is great, and I believe they have karaoke in the evenings around 9:30pm ( we haven't tried this yet). The owner is very kind and attention. They've always been kind on the phone and in person as well. They only lose one star because the ambiance was a little off. Customers seemed to stare as if we had twenty heads, but the owner didn't act that way. But that's the reason why it lost one star I felt very uncomfortable and out of place. And as much as I loved it on the inside I doubt I would go inside to eat after that weird feeling.

With a friend's band on their entertainment schedule, I found the perfect opportunity to try it out. I was looking forward to both the music and the food and while the music was amazing, my overall experience didn't quite live up to expectations. Pro: - My friends and I were able to reserve a table ahead of time, which helped secure space to enjoy the show. We had an up close and personal view, and it definitely made for an immersive experience. Cons: - The space is way too small for live bands. The band was squeezed into a corner, and the closest table was practically on top of the lead singer. The small space in front of the band may have been meant for dancing, but it blocked the path to the bathrooms and food service. It felt cramped, loud, and uncomfortable. - The pub-height tables had tall chairs that were wobbly and unstable. I'm not a big person, but even I felt like I might tip over sitting there. Plus, the layout was so tight that we all had to get up every time someone wanted to wiggle their way to the bar or the bathroom. - Our waitress disappeared for long stretches of time, and service was painfully slow. We ended up having to go up to the bar for refills between courses because no one was around to help. - The food was disappointing. I ordered the house-made tavern chips (which look like potato chips on the website) but got plain tortilla chips instead. I also had two hot weiners, and while they had all the right toppings, the flavor was all wrong. The meat sauce tasted burnt, and they were completely overloaded with celery salt. It was honestly the worst I've ever had. Others at the table felt underwhelmed with their selections as well - the quesadilla was soggy and the appetizer sampler was just okay. - The bathroom locks were unreliable. The lock on the door failed halfway through my visit, and it took several attempts to get the button to work again, which made for a pretty awkward experience. Given this visit, I'm unlikely to return. If I do, it'd have to be for a great band, and I'll definitely eat somewhere else beforehand.
