Pizza Head - St Louis

After perfecting his vegetarian and vegan pizza recipes at Pizzeoli in Soulard, Scott Sandler left in 2017 to launch this simple concept at Pizza Head: a punk-rock pizza joint serving entirely vegetarian, New York–style pies by the slice with a vegan (cashew cheese option for everything. The pizzas are huge (20 inches , the toppings are great, and the dough is soft and chewy with a slight crisp. Before the pandemic, it was a great place to hang out at the bar, always with an IPA and PBR on tap (plus Stag in a can, I believe . The pepperoni and sausage are convincingly real. I have often brought non-veg friends to this place (or ordered out in order to gleefully surprise them with the announcement that they have not, in fact, been eating meat. Subversive, I know. The best pizza you can get here, in my opinion, is their collaboration with Bombay Food Junkies: the chick 'n tikka masala pizza (usually available once or twice per week, I think... maybe on Wednesdays? . Check their website to see what the special of the day is. This place is one of the growing number of vegetarian and vegan restaurants on South Grand, now the hot spot for veg food in St. Louis in addition to being the most diverse commercial district in the city for many years (I 've often heard it said that there are 14 nationalities represented among the South Grand restaurant row, but I don 't know how accurate that number is today, a year into the COVID-19 pandemic .

We come here every time we're in St. Louis. Best vegan pizza I've ever had, the cashew cheese is my favorite. Pepperoni is nice and spicy. Pizzas are huge!

The pizza we got was a piece of special pizza Chikn Tikka pizza (to share) and it was absolutely amazing. We also have a whole spinach and artichoke white pizza. Both were vegan pizzas. The spinach/artichoke pizza was incredibly creamy and buttery and thus had an amazing taste (they both did). I love ordering the window and eating outside. Definitely will come back here if I ever visit St. Louis in the future!

I’ve had the utopian veggie dream with cashew cheese and another pizza (at another point) with vegan mozzarella. Both were good. Updated from previous review on 2022-05-20

My favorite vegan pizza restaurant! Pizza by the slice or whole pies. The cashew cheese is a MUST. They mix their pizza sauce with the cashew cheese, which makes it delicious albeit a bit funny looking. I always get just cashew cheese pizza. Yum!
