Pizza Marvin in Providence RI.

Just wanted a clam pizza. Didn’t see they were nominated till after i ordered and knew it was gunna be some monkeys paw situation.

Sure enough. It was good pizza but still had the shells on it. Shucking the wet greasy clams wasn’t fun and they had a bunch of liquid in them making the pizza a very messy eat.

    I would’ve got a refund. That’s actually ridiculous. I can’t stand when people have to make simple shit difficult

    FWIW the best pizzas are made by NON-James Beard Nominees…

    Pizza Marvin has some of the best pies in the area. Go for the burrata pie or the pepperoni with hot honey, no silly frills on those and definitely worth the price. Though I’d say, the Marvin pizzas always taste a little better in the summer when you can sit on their patio with some friends and some drinks

    Hopefully this wasn’t the pizza that got them the JBA. That’s not a great one, even by Marvin’s standards.

    I know some people that love the interactive nature of clamshells on pizza. I don’t get it tho. I want to pick up a slice and go straight into my mouth.

    I was always firm that seafood doesn’t belong on pizza. This has fully reinforced that belief, lol.

    Having the shells on there is insane. Never seen anything like it

    I love clam pizza but having the shells on top just seems crazy to me.

    This is fucking weird.

    Not as bad, but when I lived in Germany I went to a few different pizza places that put whole olives on pizza. Not pitted olives mind you, which I found out the hard way crunching right into a whole pit.

    Who the hell thought that was a good idea?

    Be glad you didn’t order the conch topping.

    Looks a rip from Franny’s in Brooklyn, who made the best pizza I’ve ever had.

    Pizza should be “ready to eat”. Having to further shuck and prepare clams on an already baked pizza would drive me nuts

    This belongs on stupid food. It’s the definition of stupid food

    The shells are bad enough, but I’m getting even more pissed just imagining the grit on that pizza if the clams aren’t thoroughly cleaned.
