I am sure you know, as you give a lot of food reviews, but Ricatonis and Pie Factory both use stone pizza ovens I am pretty sure. 

Actually I did know Ricatonis did use the stone oven but didn't know Pie Factory did.  I thought Pie Factory used the old cast iron type, slide the pizza in, ovens to cook in like Stoner's is using. 

I also, remember affectionately, Pizza Marina's (River Road location) restaurant who was open for a while.  They had a really good pie but alas they ended up having some dispute over the building with the landlord and moved to a location just past the Killen Bridge, in Killen and from there didn't last that long afterwards. 

Although I didn't mention it I do very much like the stone ovens as well but you just don't find that many places using them.   There are some authentic type but I believe, for the most part, the conveyor ovens are mostly used today and (sadly) less and less of the old huge heavy cast iron type slide pizza in, ovens are not used, or so it seems.  Again though I have to admit that it could just all be in my head and I'm playing some head game on myself thinking that the conveyor ovens don't cook as good tasting a pizza.
