Wasena City Tap Room and Grill, which boasts over thirty beers on tap, recently opened in Roanoke, Virginia. Their diverse menu includes burgers, tacos, and more, and I settled on a basic cheese pizza. Wasena City Tap Room’s pizzas are handtossed from their homemade dough, covered with their homemade marina sauce and baked in a stone hearth. […]
Kona Grill Review | Carmel, IN
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 […]
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 […]
Bertucci’s Italian Restaurant | Boston, MA
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 […]

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), […]
Rudino’s Pizza and Grinders | Cincinnati, OH
Villa Pizza | Las Vegas, NV
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 […]
Carrabba’s Italian Grill | CLOSED
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 […]
