After more than 10 years of serving up nose-to-tail feasts and big Sunday brunches of fried chicken and biscuits, co-owners Scott Vivian and Nathan Middleton—wanting a post-pandemic freshening-up—turned Beast into a pizzeria. Their NY–style pies come with classic toppings, including curled cups of pepperoni, and not-so-classic ones, like beef heart tartare. Brunch may be a thing of the past, but whole animal dinners are still on the table. 96 Tecumseth St., thebeastrestaurant.com
