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.

Buca di Beppo | Indianapolis, IN

Buca di Beppo_Indianapolis_Review

Buca di Beppo is a family-style Italian restaurant. Their pizza was pretty good, but they have other authentic Italian entrees that might be even better.  Their pepperoni pizza features large slices of pepperoni on top of mozzarella and provolone cheese. The crust is thin, and probably prepared in a coal oven, or the taste gives that […]

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 […]

Jet’s Pizza | Carmel, IN

Pizza_Review_Jet's Pizza

Jet’s Pizza has great pan pizza with options for flavored crust.  They also serve traditional crust pizza that I haven’t yet tried, because I can’t turn down garlic-flavored pan crust.  Their jet’s bread (cheesy bread) is also very good.  Jet’s Pizza also offers subs, but since they couldn’t even get props in the name I wouldn’t pass […]

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 […]

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.  […]

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 […]

Granite City Food & Brewery | Indianapolis, IN

IN - Granite City Food & Brewery

Granite City Food & Brewery is more famous for their brews and burgers, but I was pleasantly surprised by their classic pepperoni flatbread pizza.  While the pizza is not a bad option, I could not live with myself if I didn’t strongly recommend the Bedda Chedda Bacon Burger.  It takes a secure pizza fan to […]
