Camacho’s Famous serves up Chicago-Style Pizza to Clarksville
Clarksville, TN – You could argue that Camacho’s Famous, a recently opened Chicago-style pizza place located on highway 76, was ‘famous’ before it even opened.
Andrew and Marie Duenas made their mark on Clarksville’s food scene in a very unusual way.
“I was doing pizza out of the house during COVID-19,” Andrew Duenas said. “One day we thought we would see how Clarksville felt about Chicago-style pizza. It was a weird time, with COVID-19, and all the isolation. Our neighborhood was doing a neighborhood yard sale, so we decided to make some samples, give them away, and see what everyone thought. We wanted to see if they even knew what Chicago-style pizza was.”
