Best way to find out is to try! You have the stone and we know you have a grille! Have you had anchovies on pizza? That would be the closest. In Italy you can get pizza tonno, very common. First time I ordered that in the US, even at the "Italian restaurant" they looked at me like I am from another planet.

Maybe on the East Coast you have a chance to get it?
So, describing how it taste like ... of course it is fishy, but more importantly, it is very savory, as in umami. Combined with the tomato and cheese it is really adding another dimension to the pizza. Think fish sauce ...
So, for the faint of heart, I think you can get a milder effect of that umami if you try some canned tuna first and step it up from there. That's what we do at the house. I get the sardines, some tolerate them, most eat tuna, and then there is the margehrita fraction! That's why I like pizza dinner with the family. Everyone can customize.
