You may think you’re heading to a simple pizza restaurant, but the moment you walk in the doors of DO Scratch Made Pizza & Pasta, you’ll recognize you are destined for an elevated dining experience. The smell of garlic and tomatoes will greet you, accented by the wood-fired ovens cooking up delicious food.
Serving up stone-fired pizzas, made-from-scratch pasta, and other Italian dishes, DO Scratch Made Pizza & Pasta is full of authentic Italian flavor. Everything, from the pasta to the pizza sauce, is made from scratch, which you can tell from the bold flavors. This locally-owned favorite is known for its flavorful dishes, friendly staff, and upscale, urban vibes. It also has a robust dessert menu, so you may want to save some room for authentic gelato or tiramisu. It also has a full wine menu with several unique vintages and flavors to pair well with the food you order, or you can choose a martini, margarita, or your other favorite cocktail.
While the food is definitely the main draw of this restaurant, the views are also exceptional. It sits next to the courthouse in downtown Sevierville, and a bank of windows means you can see the beautifully lit building at night while enjoying your meal. Dim lighting, elegant glassware, and a quiet atmosphere make it a great location for a date night, but it’s just casual enough to be a good option for a meal with family or friends.
A few of our menu favorites include:
Caprese
Start your meal with fresh tomatoes drizzled in a robust basil pesto and a balsamic reduction. This salad is finished with fresh buffalo burrata and a drizzle of extra version olive oil. It is a beautiful blend of authentic Italian flavors.
Pizza Speciale
Pizza Speciale is the restaurant’s signature pie. It starts with their hand-made crust topped with a red sauce and rossa pomodoro. Beef shoulder and red onion with fresh basil are the basic flavors, but the addition of Calabrian chilies adds a some spice to the pizza. It’s topped with both mozzarella and provolone.
Seafood Linguini
This dish tosses the restaurant’s hand-made linguini with a blend of clams, octopus, squid, and wild-caught shrimp. Roasted peppers and tomatoes add flavor to the lobster bisque sauce.
Lemon Italian Cream
This dessert douses layers of sponge cake in a tangy lemon syrup. They top it with a lemon cream for a cool, refreshing finale to your meal.
Espresso Martini
This cocktail mixes Wheatley vodka with espresso, Kahlua, and vanilla simple syrup. It’s part morning coffee, part cocktail, and fully pleasing.
If you are looking for a flavorful night on the town, then DO Scratch Made Pizza & Pasta will fit the bill nicely.
