I’ve heard of a seafood pizza, but a sushi pizza? That’s next level. American restaurant Poke Burri is causing a stir on social media for their sushi pizza.

The Atlanta-based restaurant is known for serving unconventional dishes like sushi burritos, a sushi doughnut and their newest creation, the sushi pizza.

Poke Burri co-owner Seven Chan told Access Atlanta they are always trying to stay on top of the latest food trends.

Chan says the idea for the sushi pizza came from a friend.

Chan adds: “We have a very diverse product offering that is different from everyone else in the industry. We have things on our secret menu and our most recent thing that everyone's been going crazy over is our sushi pizza. Our friend, who is a social blogger, said we should make a sushi pizza. She was so excited about it that we couldn't say no.”

Chan says the sushi pizza was a hit, but not everyone is convinced. 

I’m not sure whether I think it’s genius or infuriating. My brain just doesn’t seem to be able to process this information. #sushipizza
