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 […]
Black Thorn Pub & Pizza | St. Louis, MO
Mazzio’s Italian Eatery | Enid, OK
I visited Mazzio’s Italian Eatery for their lunch buffet and was very impressed by the selection. It started with a pretty good looking salad bar. I, of course, skipped this portion of the buffet, but it did seem to offer all of the delicious unhealthy toppings that make salad tolerable. Additionally, they had two more […]
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), […]
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 […]
Domino’s Pizza | Westfield, IN
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 […]
Pizza Hut | Carmel, IN
4/3/2013 Update – Unfortunately, the Pizza Hut at 1344 South Rangeline Road in Carmel that offered the buffet has closed. However, they do still have a carryout and delivery location at 705 South Rangeline Road in Carmel. The closest Pizza Hut restaurants with dine-in options and the lunch buffet are in Indianapolis, Fishers, and Noblesville. […]
Buca di Beppo | Indianapolis, IN
Buca di Beppo is a family-style Italian restaurant. Their pizza was pretty good, but they have other authentic Italian entrees that might be even better. Their pepperoni pizza features large slices of pepperoni on top of mozzarella and provolone cheese. The crust is thin, and probably prepared in a coal oven, or the taste gives that […]
