Pizza Lucé is constantly rated as one of the best pizza places, if not the best, in the Minneapolis area, and after trying their pie I can certainly see why. They have five locations in and around the Twin Cities, and I visited the one in uptown Minneapolis. Pizza Lucé’s website states that their “ongoing […]
Pizza Ranch | Willmar, MN
The Pizza Ranch has grown to become a popular chain in the great plains and western midwest states since first opening in Hull, Iowa in 1981. They currently have locations in Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. I believe most of their restaurants offer lunch (11am-1:30pm) and dinner (5-8pm) […]
Rubi’s Pizza & Grill | Parkersburg, WV
I stopped at Rubi’s Pizza & Grill during a road trip as it received some positive comments online, and there weren’t a lot of other options when driving along this particular route in West Virginia. They had pizza by the slice that you could grab quickly, but we chose to have them make a fresh pizza […]
Mangia Italian Grill & Sports Cafe | Annapolis, MD
Mangia Italian Grill & Sports Cafe is in the heart of Annapolis just off of the water. They offer deep dish Sicilian or thin crust pizza, and I tried their thin crust per the waiter’s recommendation. It was fairly similar to a New York-style pizza just with a slightly thicker crust that was fairly […]
Pizzeria Paradiso | Washington, D.C.
Pizzeria Paradiso has three locations in the Washington, D.C. area; one around DuPont Circle, one in the Georgetown area, and one in Alexandria. I visited the one in the Georgetown area which was quite crowded even on a Wednesday night. We had only about a twenty minute wait though, and I was able to fill […]
Odeon Cafe | Washington, D.C.
Odeon Cafe is just a couple blocks north of DuPont Circle in Washinton, D.C., and I honestly wasn’t expecting too much from their pizza as they looked to be somewhat of a more upscale Italian restaurant. However, their pizza bianca, which consisted of fontina cheese, oregano, garlic, and extra virgin olive oil, was a delicious […]
City Pizza & Pasta | Arvada, CO
City Pizza & Pasta is famous for their St. Louis-style pizza offering, and they also make traditional pizza along with Chicago-style. Beyond their pizza varieties, they serve salads, sandwiches, calzones, canolies, wings, and pasta. This was the first time I have ever had St. Louis-style pizza which is known for its provel cheese, thin yeast-less […]
C.B. & Potts Restaurant & Brewery | Englewood, CO
C.B. & Potts is a fun restaurant and brewery that claims to be the tallest bar in Colorado (see picture below). They have several locations in the Denver area, and the one I visited in Englewood had a typical restaurant area and a bar/lounge area that even featured a few games. They offer a wide range […]
Thr3e Wise Men Brewery | Indianapolis, IN
Thr3e Wise Men is a new microbrewery in the Broadripple area of Indianapolis. The inside has a neat cabin-type feel, and you can even be seated at picnic tables. I had their pizza lunch special which was a great deal as it also included three breadsticks (I recommend the stuffed ones), or salad if you […]
The Toasted Frog | Grand Forks, ND
The Toasted Frog is a neat restaurant and lounge with locations in downtown Grand Forks and Bismarck. The one I visited in Grand Forks is in a historic building just off the banks of the Red River. They offer a little bit of everything from appetizers, soup and salad, to lavosh, entrees, and pizza of […]
