Bar Louie

Pizza_Rating_Bar Louie

Bar Louie offers decent pizza, but they also have a large menu with some other options that are probably better.  My personal favorite entree at this restaurant is the fried louie burger (bacon, cheddar, and fried egg), and they also have a lot of good sandwich offerings.  I always enjoyed Bar Louie’s food and large beer selection, […]

LaRosa’s Pizzeria | Cincinnati, OH

OH - LaRosa's Pizzeria

LaRosa’s Pizzeria is a fairly big chain in the Cincinnati area.  They also have locations in southeastern Indiana, northeastern Kentucky, and into the Dayton area in Ohio.  LaRosa’s Pizzeria offers pretty good pizza and lots of other menu options.  If you are in Cincinnati and have already had Dewey’s, then you should definitely give LaRosa’s […]

CiCi’s Pizza

IN - CiCi's Pizza

4/4/2013 Update – Many Cici’s locations, including the one I visited in Kokomo, have closed over the past few years.  I don’t know if they ever took my recommendation to bring back their cheesy garlic bread as there are no longer any locations close to me. I always found the cheesy garlic bread to be the highlight of Cici’s […]

Dewey’s Pizza | Cincinnati, OH

OH - Dewey's Pizza

All you really need to know in regards to how I feel about Dewey’s Pizza is that I held our rehearsal dinner for my wedding there.  They are generous on toppings,  and they might offer the best light and fluffy crust I have ever tasted.  I have my two favorite options pictured, the X-Pepperoni and Caprice, as […]

Papa John’s | Carmel, IN

IN - Papa John's

I would say Papa John’s does a good job of having fresh-tasting pizzas as compared to their large chain competitors.  I think the garlic dipping sauce is a nice touch as their standard crust isn’t too flavorful otherwise.  They do offer thin crust as well, but then you lose out on the garlic dipping sauce.  […]

Fazoli’s | Carmel, IN

IN - Fazolis

Aside from that brief period when they charged you a quarter for breadsticks, I have always been a huge fan of Fazolis.  They have changed their pizza recipe quite a few times over the years, but I think the current one is pretty good.  It is a fairly greasy pizza with a hint of their breadstick […]

The Sports & Social Club | Louisville, KY

KY - The Sports and Social Club

The Sports & Social Club is a bowling alley and bar in the 4th Street Live entertainment district of Louisville.  They had decent pizza considering it is a bowling alley/bar combo, but it is probably not the best thing on their menu.  4th Street Live is definitely a fun place to check out, and this restaurant […]

Rocky Rococo Pizza & Pasta | Louisville, KY

KY - Rocky Rococo Pizza and Pasta

Rocky Rococo’s probably serves the best pizza I have ever had in a food court…sorry Sbarro.  Most of their locations are actually in Wisconsin, and I believe they are mostly free-standing as opposed to the foodcourt one I visited in Louisville.  They offer a thicker crusted, pan-style pizza that is pretty good.  The breadsticks aren’t […]

Wick’s Pizza Parlor & Pub | Louisville, KY

KY - Wick's Pizza Parlor and Pub

Wick’s Pizza Parlor & Pub continually gets voted as having the best pizza in Louisville.  I found their pizza to be very good with lots of cheese covering the toppings.  Since this is a pub, the lighting wasn’t the best, but I apologize for the poor quality of the photo.  If you find yourself craving pizza in […]

Donatos | Carmel, IN

Donatos_Pepperoni Pizza

Donatos has to be my favorite pizza among the fairly large chains.  They have a delicious thin crust with an amazing amount of tasty pepperoni.  They put some sort of seasoning on top of their pepperoni that really makes it stand out from others.  Donatos is a little more expensive than most chains, but I think it […]
