My Google alert showed me the Facebook page for the Fork in the Ally Brick Oven Pub, Roanoke, Virginia.
Despite having a "Photos" page, I couldn't actually see a picture of their oven.
They did have a link to some reviews, one of which says, in part, "Specialty pizzas looked to be wonderful, perfectly baked in the open brick ovens. The guys in the kitchen are twirling the dough and running about, making it fun to watch."
Sounds like a winner to me.

Bertucci's Italian Restaurant, Multiple Locations
An article that's part of Braintree Patch discussed healthy menu choices at Italian restaurants.
The article says in part, "And so I began my quest for lighter (but still delicious) Italian fare at Bertucci’s, a local icon known for its signature brick oven style of cooking.
"After scanning the menu, I happily discovered vegetable-rich soups, nutritious side dishes and plenty of tasty protein options; all perfect components of a balanced meal. I then assessed the nutrition information available online...."
Bertucci's Italian Restaurant has numerous locations in the Northeast US.

Castiglia's, Fredricksburg, Virginia
A fredricksburg.com blog entry says that Castiglia's will be closed for remodeling while in brick oven is being installed.
The blog entry says in part, "A crew led by owner Luigi Castiglia is building a wood-burning brick oven that will cook pizzas in the authentic style used in Naples, Italy. Luigi Castiglia’s brother is now in Naples getting trained on making authentic Neapolitan pizza, whose thin crust cooks in less than two minutes in the oven’s almost 900-degree heat."
The restaurant's home page says in part, "Castiglia’s Will be closed for remodeling starting on January 24th for 3-4 weeks."

Pizza Tonight, Richmond, Virginia
Richmond.com has a piece about Pizza Tonight of Richmond, Virginia.(The contemporaneous blog for Pizza Night has a correction.)
This is a story of a hobby turning into a business.
The story says in parts:
"You had to be friends or friends of friends to get invited to the Deroche’s house in the Fan to enjoy Victoria’s homemade pizza dough. At Pizza Club, Victoria provided the pizza dough and her guests got to top it with whatever they wanted: from fresh feta and basil to pizza carbonara with pancetta, eggs and hard cheeses...."
"But now, this pizza club is going public with Pizza Tonight, gourmet pizza kits handcrafted by the Richmond couple...."
"And in a few weeks, Victoria hopes to bring her brand new portable wood fire oven -- which is currently en route from Colorado to Richmond -- to farmer’s markets where she can fire up a gourmet pizza pie on the premises….just for you...."
(04/17/11) They must now have their oven, since they have a new portable oven business described on their page.
