California Pizza Kitchen | La Jolla, CA

CA - California Pizza Kitchen

California Pizza Kitchen offers good pizza and many more menu options than their name would imply. I liked that their pizza had a light, fluffy crust, however they aren’t exactly loaded with cheese and toppings. They offer a lot of specialty pizzas (the Meat Cravers pizza that someone I was with had is pictured below), […]

Hungry Howie’s | Indianapolis, IN

IN - Hungry Howie's

Hungry Howie’s has pretty good flavored crust options (sesame, cajun, butter cheese, butter, ranch, garlic herb, onion, and original) at no extra charge as they claim to be “home of hte flavored crust.” Their pizza is decent but not great, and the crust is probably the highlight. I also tried their breadsticks, or “Howie Bread”, […]

Sbarro | Anaheim, CA

Sbarro_Pizza

Sbarro is located in food courts across the nation as well as a few other countries. The location I visited was next to the convention center in Anaheim and only blocks away from Disneyland. Sbarro serves an average New York-style pizza as well as a few other items. While it certainly isn’t the best pizza […]

Carrabba’s Italian Grill | CLOSED

Carrabba's Italian Grill_Pizza_Review

4/3/2013 Update – Unfortunately, the Carrabba’s in Carmel closed a little while ago.  They do still have Indiana locations in Mishawaka and Southport as well restaurants in thirty-one other states though. Carrabba’s Italian Grill gets The Pizza Fan’s recommendation for a quality date restaurant where you can still get good pizza. I think Carrabba’s can help […]

Domino’s Pizza | Westfield, IN

Domino's Pizza_Review_Westfield

I think Domino’s Pizza did a great job making their crust better when they went through their upgrade; it has some butter and seasoning that makes it pretty good. I think everything else tastes fairly similar, but as long as their prices stay the same then Domino’s is a great option for a decent tasting […]

Pizza Hut | Carmel, IN

Pizza Hut_Buffet

4/3/2013 Update – Unfortunately, the Pizza Hut at 1344 South Rangeline Road in Carmel that offered the buffet has closed.  However, they do still have a carryout and delivery location at 705 South Rangeline Road in Carmel.  The closest Pizza Hut restaurants with dine-in options and the lunch buffet are in Indianapolis, Fishers, and Noblesville. […]

Mellow Mushroom | Carmel, IN

Mellow Mushroom_Pizza_Rating

Mellow Mushroom is an interestingly themed restaurant that offers a fair amount of specialty pizzas as well as numerous different topping options for customers to build their own creations. I enjoyed their crust as they have some seasoning on it that tasted like garlic butter and parmesan to me (whatever it was added some nice […]

Fox & Hound | Carmel, IN

Fox & Hound Restaurant Group_Pizza_Review

Fox & Hound makes decent flatbread pizza, but their other bar food is more popular. Their platter appetizer with wings, pretzels, mozzarella sticks, and potato skins is a great place to start. From there, you can follow up with the pizza, or burgers, sandwiches, chicken, fish, etc. The pizza has a thin crust but is […]

Olive Garden | Indianapolis, IN

Olive Garden_Indianapolis_Restaurant Review

While it shouldn’t be surprising that I have only ever gotten the pizza at Olive Garden, I still think it is a decent option when combined with some of their breadsticks. This has been my standard meal at Olive Garden ever since they started giving away free pizza if you got an A in math […]

Bellacino’s Pizza and Grinders | Carmel, IN

Pizza_Carmel_Bellacino's Pizza and Grinders

Bellacino’s Pizza and Grinders’ pizza is very good.  They have a large variety of other options on their menu as well.  The grinders look extremely appetizing, but so far I have been too loyal to pizza to try them.   What’s more, is that the pizza-specific options on their menu are quite vast.  The pepperoni pizza pictured was very good, […]
