Big Ed's Pizza

903 S. Memorial Parkway, Huntsville. Find them on Facebook here and read our 2015 review here.

Big Ed's is Huntsville's oldest pizzeria, and it's been around for a long time for a reason: it has seriously tasty pies and a legit crust (not too thick, not too thin). It's nothing fancy -- just old-fashioned pizza piled with toppings. Come with your family and order the signature pizza, the Big 8, which consists of pepperoni, green olives, black olives, onions, ham, pork sausage, green peppers and mushrooms. Make sure to order a nice, cold beer with the 'za -- they have plenty of local brew choices. Bonus: There's a CD jukebox full of good tunes.

Earth and Stone Wood-Fired Pizza

2600 Clinton Ave., Huntsville. Find them on Facebook here.

Earth and Stone is located inside Yellowhammer Brewing, so you can grab a local beer while you wait on your pizza (on the patio, if the weather's nice). We're sold already, but the pizza is as good as the brew. You can never go wrong with the Greene Street, which is topped with red sauce, mozzarella/provolone, fresh baby spinach, fresh mushrooms, red bell pepper, red onion and Kalamata olives. Yum. And if they're not feeling pizza, there are some solid salads and apps on the menu as well.

Sam and Greg's Pizzeria, Gelateria

119 Northside Square, Huntsville. Find them on Facebook here.

Sam and Greg's is the perfect pizza stop when the weather's nice outside -- it's located on the courthouse square, so there's plenty of people watching, too. (It's also super kid-friendly -- go in at almost any time of the day and there will be a family there). The basic pepperoni pizza stands on its own, but if you're feeling creative, try the Cajun pizza, which has toppings like shrimp and crawfish. And make sure to save room for gelato -- they have gelateria in their name, after all.

Tortora's

182 Old Highway 431, Owens Crossroads. Find them on Facebook here.

If you're looking for a great pizza restaurant, look no further than Tortora's (which we recently named one of the top 10 pizzerias in the state). The restaurant (which is super family-friendly, by the way) has some seriously creative pies (with the perfect not-too-thick, not-too-thin crusts). Our suggestion? The Sydney, which consists of mozzarella, chorizo, fresh basil, bacon, caramelized onions and sauteed cherry tomatoes. Also make sure to save room for dessert: Their deep-fried zeppoles are awesome (and will bust your diet).

Venice Pizza

6610 Old Madison Pike N.W., Huntsville. Find them on Facebook here.

Venice Pizza is a solid choice for comfort food -- their large menu is full of pizza, chicken wing, gyro, burger and sandwich choices. Best of all: They deliver, and offer pizza by the slice. You can never go wrong with their venice supreme, which is topped with grilled chicken, pesto, roasted peppers, basil and green olives. Yum.

Terry's Pizza

Located inside Star Market, 704 Pratt Ave. N.E. Find them on Facebook here.

Terry's Pizza opened on North Memorial Parkway in 1959, and when it closed in 2006, there was an outroar -- so much so that Star Market bought the recipe and started cooking the 'za. Stop by the supermarket and immediately order your pizza, then get your groceries. By the time you're finished, your pie should be ready. Go for Terry's signature pizza, the Sticky Fingers, which consists of extra cheese, mushrooms, sausage and pepperoni. And when we say extra cheese, we mean extra cheese -- Terry's has the cheesiest pizzas in town.

DJs Pizza

378 Ryland Pike, Huntsville. Find their Facebook page here. Read our review here.

A few years ago, some previous Terry's workers opened up DJs, which serves a pizza that's an ode to Terry's (and also has a lunch buffet, so head's up). Try the Hawaiian, which is topped with pineapple, bacon and ham. The dining area isn't large, though, so remember that when you're deciding if you want to dine in or order carry out. If you're craving a beverage, they also have beer and wine on the menu.

Pane e Vino

300 Church St., Huntsville. Find on Facebook here.

Oh, y'all. If you're looking with pizza with a view (or a great choice for date night), try Pane e Vino. Eat outdoors and you get a beautiful view of Big Spring Park. (And make sure to check out their happy hour specials). Order a glass or carafe of wine (they have a pretty solid selection) and try out the 'za -- pretty much anything you choose will be delicious. (There's also a gluten-free option if you are searching for that). If you're not feeling pizza, there are also panini and salad options.

The Boot Pizzeria

11505 S. Memorial Parkway, Huntsville. Find them on Facebook here. Read our food review here.

Go for the non-traditional at The South Parkway restaurant. The pizzeria, which offers up plenty of creative choices, has a pretty legit Barbecue Sausage pie. It consists of Italian sausages, fresh mushrooms, blue cheese and melted mozzarella cheese. If your co-diners aren't feeling pizza, there are also plenty of pasta options.

Cork + Crust Pizzeria + Wine Bar

12120 County Line Road, Madison. Find them on Facebook here.

I didn't forget about you, winos. Cork + Crust has an excellent wine selection, but guess what? The pizza is pretty phenomenal, too. Try the pepp-urrata, which is topped with an Italian cheese blend, house-made mozzerella, pepperoni and burrata cream. Yum, yum, yum.
