New York Pizza Depot was founded by Joe Nazar, Arielle’s father, in 2003. The first pizzeria was located across from Fort Campbell’s Gate 3. Mr. Nazar sold that pizza store and over the next 17 years moved his pizzeria to different locations around the Clarksville, TN area. Joe Nazar was completely at home in his pizza kitchen. Indeed, he took pride in his fresh ingredients standard.

In 2019, Arielle Nazar along with her husband, Sam Kight, and Lisa Kight, acquired the family business. The new leadership team at New York Pizza Depot are holding on to the same “fresh ingredients standard” set by Joe Nazar. All pizza dough is made in house every day.
