Big Dam Pizza is a relatively new pizza joint in Fayetteville that is known for, well, some pretty damn big pizza.

The space is not huge - despite the size of the pies - but it wasn't busy.

The restaurant is decorated with images of dams.

The menu features their signature huge slices, as well as some other yummy sounding items - pepperoni rolls, mac & cheese, Big Dam Hotdog, Big Dam Cuban, wings and hummus.


Slice with mushrooms and garlic - easily as big as two slices! Maybe three.

In a nook overlooking local favorite restaurant Cathedral Cafe, the Raw & Juicy Juice Bar offers a healthy smoothie (and smoothie bowl!) option for those who have been rafting, mountain biking or hiking all day. Or me.

The juice bar is in the same location as the restaurant, just located upstairs and overlooking the dining area.

The juice bar space itself is small and cozy. From this space, they also prep cleanses/detoxes that folks can purchase as part of a program.

My good friend Tom and I were in the mood for some sushi, so we checked out Sakura in Cross Lanes for something different.

Sakura has a little bit of everything - hibachi, sushi, udon, etc.

They have about 30 specialty rolls, but I decided to go with the namesake Sakura: tempura shrimp, spicy tuna, cream cheese, avocado deep fried and topped with crunchies, eel sauce, mayo and spicy mayo.



Crab rangoons are a must everywhere I go. These were creamy!

Gyoza, on Tom's request.

Sakura Roll is totally deep-fried.

West Virginia Roll - tempura shrimp, avocado, cream cheese, topped with tempura crab meat, spicy mayo and eel sauce.

Bellissimo is a fairly new restaurant in the Belle/Dupont City area that has gotten a lot of attention recently after having been featured in the local newspaper.

This small space has been packed lately, but we went after the crowd died down to try a few things.

The menu is pretty large - with everything from pizza and pasta to burgers and gyros.
