Imo's is bringing St. Louis pizza to Nashville

Imo's, the St. Louis-style pizza chain known for its unique Provel cheese, plans to open a Nashville location next year.

State of play: St. Louis-style pizza, known for its thin crust and square slices, is a divisive topic among pizza lovers.

• The location of the Nashville restaurant is still being finalized.

Friction point: The brand has a cult following, but also spurs very heated arguments over its unique approach to a pizza pie.

• Provel cheese is a conglomeration of cheddar, Swiss and provolone. Imo's features a yeast-free cracker-thin crust. The sauce is ultra sweet.

👍 Nate's take: I love Imo's nearly as much as I love the Cubs. I frequently stop there, or at a local joint, when passing through St. Louis.

👎 Adam's take: I sampled Imo's while I went to school at Saint Louis University, and I was not a fan. It tasted like funky gravy on a cracker.

• But I'm willing to try again when it opens here.
