Old Chicago restaurants are scattered around the country, but, not surprisingly, they are most prevalent near Chicago. The selection on their menu is as vast as their geographic coverage, and they offer appetizers, salads, wings, sandwiches, burgers, pasta, and calzones. Lastly, if it wasn’t obvious by their full name, they also have a large selection […]
Aurelio’s Pizza has an impressive history, and I’m very excited that they have finally made their way to central Indiana by opening a store in Fishers in 2016. Aurelio’s was started by Joe Aurelio in Homewood, Illinois in 1959, and it remains run by the Aurelio family to this day. It was actually the first Chicago pizzeria […]
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 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 […]
Brixx Wood Fired Pizza appears to be built around two fundamentals that should have them destined for great success: good pizza and a nice craft beer selection. Not that it’s necessary, but they actually have some food beyond pizza as well. To sample something else before the pizza, I did try their bruschetta. It was pretty good, but it […]
Upon arriving for a stay at the Thompson Chicago on the corner of Bellevue and Rush, I was happy to hear the concierge tell us that we had three solid nearby pizza options in Lou Malnati’s, Pizano’s, and Connie’s. I already knew that I would greatly enjoy Lou Malnati’s and Pizano’s based on previous experiences. However, we were already […]
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 […]
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 […]
Blaze Pizza offers a new and unique take on the pizza-ordering experience, and I think their fast, highly personalized approach will only continue to gain in popularity. While they have some signature pizzas, Blaze is most known for their “build your own” option that allows patrons to follow their pizzas through the preparation process and add […]
Pizano’s Pizza & Pasta presents an interesting quandary to its patrons…is it best to order their deep dish or thin crust pizza? Surely, a restaurant owned by Rudy Malnati Jr, – son of Pizzeria Uno founder, Rudy Malnati Sr. – must make some pretty excellent deep dish pizza. However, their thin crust pizza has been listed […]
