It seems you’re interested in a dish called the “Pizza Burger Pie.” While there isn’t a widely recognized restaurant by that exact name, several eateries offer similar concepts that blend elements of pizza, burgers, and pies.
1. The Pie Pizzeria (Utah): Known for its specialty pies, they offer a “Cheesy Bacon Burger Pie,” which features seasoned ground beef, red onions, bacon, tomatoes, and a mix of aged mozzarella and sharp cheddar cheese, topped with chopped dill pickles and gourmet burger sauce.
2. Pie Tap (Houston): This Dallas-based pizzeria is set to open its first Houston location in June 2025. While their menu primarily focuses on artisanal pizzas and burgers, they may offer dishes that combine elements of pizza and burgers.
3. Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder Company (Chicago): Located in Lincoln Park, Chicago, this restaurant is famous for its “Pizza Pot Pie,” a unique dish that combines pizza ingredients in a pie format. While not exactly a pizza-burger hybrid, it offers a creative twist on traditional pizza.
