Founded in 2005 by Matt McIntosh and Ricky Hacker, EVO began as a mobile wood-fired oven used for catering before transitioning to a permanent location in 2007. The two chefs met while working at FIG in downtown Charleston and spent years refining their vision of a neighborhood pizzeria rooted in local agriculture and traditional cooking methods. They are dedicated to using ingredients from regional farms such as Kurios Farms, Kindlewood Farms, and Olinda Olives & Olive Oil, which are proudly displayed above their oven. Their approach emphasizes seasonal ingredients, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for the food’s origins.
