Godfather’s Pizza started in Omaha, Nebraska, and it seems they are most prevalent in the surrounding areas. Still, they have restaurants across the country – from Alaska to Florida. Their stores vary from standalone restaurants to express locations, which are typically attached to gas stations. I visited an express one in Iraan, Texas that was with a gas […]
Pie Five | Indianapolis, IN
Pie Five strives to serve customized personal pizzas featuring fresh ingredients as quickly as possible. Even their fountain drink machine fits the customization theme as it is one of the Coke machines that allows you to come up with almost any soda concoction. Pie Five’s recent entry into downtown Indianapolis is a restaurant that occupies an old bakery building, complete with […]
Little Caesars | Westfield, IN
With the proper limited expectations, I think you can be satisfied with the pizza you get from Little Caesars given the price. I was able to get a HOT-N-READY pepperoni pizza, a HOT-N-READY sausage pizza, and two orders of their Crazy Bread for slightly less than $20. Being able to comfortably feed four adults for […]
Subway | Carmel, IN
Despite the fact that they annoyingly call it Flatizza, I felt obligated to try this offering at Subway since they are technically the world’s largest restaurant chain that serves pizza. I went in with fairly low expectations, and I would say those were appropriately set. My pepperoni “Flatizza” had a somewhat tough crust, and the sauce tasted […]
Chuck E. Cheese’s | Indianapolis, IN
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 […]
BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse Review | Shenandoah, TX
BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse has locations in fifteen different states with the majority being in California and Texas, and I visited one in The Woodlands/Shenandoah just north of Houston, Texas. They have some televisions and a bar but still offer a pretty nice sit-down restaurant atmosphere. They serve a very large menu that starts out with a […]
Macaroni Grill Review | Carmel, IN
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 […]
Il Vicino | Wichita, KS
Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza was recommended to me by those who call Wichita home (they also provided me with some trivia in that Pizza Hut was actually started in Wichita), and I believe their recommendation was a good one. I tried the Salsiccia pizza which was comprised of marinara sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, sausage, tomatoes, and fresh […]
Pizzeria Uno | Chicago, IL
The Pizzeria Uno that I visited in downtown Chicago was the birthplace of Chicago-style deep dish pizza, and following is its history as described on Uno’s website: “In 1943, when Ike Sewell opened a restaurant at the corner of Ohio Street and Wabash Avenue in Chicago, Americans ate pizza primarily as a snack. Ike figured […]
California Pizza Kitchen | La Jolla, CA
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), […]
