The Cheesecake Factory | Indianapolis, IN

The Cheesecake Factory_Pepperoni Pizza

The Cheesecake Factory in the Keystone Fashion Mall on Indy’s north side must be doing something right because they are always busy, and I give them credit for having quick service despite the crowds.   Part of their draw may be that they have something for everyone with one of the biggest menus I have ever seen.  […]

Houlihan’s Restaurant and Bar | Indianapolis, IN

Houlihan's Restaurant and Bar_Margherita Flatbread

Houlihan’s Restaurant and Bar has many locations, including two in central Indiana.  I ate at the Houlihan’s in northeastern Indianapolis’ popular Castleton Square Mall (just to clarify, its attached to the outside of the mall but is essentially its own building and is not a part of the food court in the mall or anything […]

Chuck E. Cheese’s | Indianapolis, IN

Chuck E. Cheese's_Medium Pepperoni Pizza

The fact that I visited a Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant with other grown men should help show that I will leave no stone unturned in my search for the best pizza.  While it probably won’t be winning any awards soon, their pizza was pretty decent and was certainly better than I expected.  It had a fairly […]

Marco’s Pizza | Westfield, IN

Marco's Pizza_Extra Cheese and Pepperoni Pizza

Marco’s Pizza just opened a new location in Westfield, Indiana, and they also already have locations in twenty-eight other states.  Their restaurant in Westfield offers some limited inside seating and is likely utilized more for carry out or delivery orders.  However, they do have a $5.99 lunch special – a six-inch sub, chips and a drink, a small salad […]

Kona Grill Review | Carmel, IN

Kona Grill_Pepperoni Pizza

Kona Grill in Carmel, Indiana is located within Clay Terrace, an outdoor shopping mall, and they also currently have locations within fifteen other states.  Kona Grill is most well-known for their sushi, but I appreciate that they serve pizza, sandwiches, and other dishes as well.  Being that I am in fact The Pizza Fan, and not The Sushi […]

Nancy’s Pizza Review | Fishers, IN – CLOSED

Nancy's Pizza_Original Stuffed Pizza

Update – The Nancy’s Pizza in Fishers is no more.  They still have several locations in Illinois, a couple in Georgia, and even one in California though. Nancy’s Pizza has multiple locations in Illinois, a couple in Atlanta, and one in Fishers, Indiana, which is the one I got my pizza from.  Not surprisingly, since […]

Toppers Review | Carmel, IN

Toppers - Ultimate Pepperoni Topper

Toppers Pizza just opened a new location in Carmel, Indiana off of Carmel Drive in between Pennsylvania and Meridian Streets.  They had some fun giveaways on their opening day, including free food for a year to the first fifty people in line, and some of their pizzas, such as the Mac ‘N Cheese, further show their […]

Macaroni Grill Review | Carmel, IN

Romano's Macaroni Grill - Pepperoni Pizza

Romano’s Macaroni Grill is an Italian restaurant chain with locations throughout most of the United States, and I dined at the one in Carmel, Indiana. Like many Italian restaurants, Macaroni Grill starts you out with very good fresh bread and olive oil. We followed that up with their Mac & Cheese Bites appetizer which consisted […]

Pizza Ranch | Willmar, MN

MN - Pizza Ranch

The Pizza Ranch has grown to become a popular chain in the great plains and western midwest states since first opening in Hull, Iowa in 1981. They currently have locations in Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. I believe most of their restaurants offer lunch (11am-1:30pm) and dinner (5-8pm) […]

Giordano’s | Chicago, IL

IL - Giordano's

I’ve never reviewed the same pizza place twice before, but I had to make an exception for Giordano’s. I had previously been very excited to find a Giordano’s location in Florida, and I enjoyed their thin crust at that time in anticipation of the moment when I could feast on their famous stuffed crust pizza […]
