Sal & Carmine’s Pizza is a popular, although unassuming, spot in the upper west side of Manhattan. It has been around for awhile, and it is rumored that either Sal or Carmine are always there making pizzas. I can attest to the fact that there was an elderly gentleman who took my order, but I am not […]
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 […]
Bertucci’s Italian Restaurant has been cooking up creative brick oven pizzas and other dishes in the Northeast since 1981. They have an interesting selection of artisan pizzas, and I decided upon the Ultimate Bertucci. This pizza is made to please everyone as the entire pie is covered in pepperoni, and each individual quarter consists of one additional topping […]
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 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), […]
Grimaldi’s Pizzeria serves great coal-fired pies. Their pizza is nice and greasy, and it has the softest crust of any coal oven pizza I have ever eaten. The pizza I ate had enough cheese and delicious little pepperonis. I was with someone who also enjoyed the pesto pizza, and it is pictured below. Grimaldi’s Pizzeria […]
Villa Pizza is a typical New York-style food court pizza place similar to Sbarro. I do think that Villa Pizza might have a little more cheese and an airier crust though. Their garlic rolls are definitely worth having. The Villa Pizza is ate at is located in the C Terminal of the Las Vegas McCarren […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
