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 […]
Godfather’s Pizza | Iraan, TX
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 […]
Gamberetti’s Italian Restaurant | Salem, OR
Gamberetti’s has the dishes of a fine Italian restaurant with a fairly laid back atmosphere. They strive to utilize as many local ingredients as possible and have a nice local wine list as well. Every meal at Gamberetti’s begins with bread and oil, with even the olive oil being local. We also ordered their parmigiana garlic […]
Little Caesars | Westfield, IN
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 […]
Subway | Carmel, IN
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 […]
The Cheesecake Factory | Indianapolis, IN
The Cheesecake Factory in the Keystone Fashion Mall on Indy’s north side must be doing something right because they are always busy, and I give them credit for having quick service despite the crowds. Part of their draw may be that they have something for everyone with one of the biggest menus I have ever seen. […]
Chuck E. Cheese’s | Indianapolis, IN
The fact that I visited a Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant with other grown men should help show that I will leave no stone unturned in my search for the best pizza. While it probably won’t be winning any awards soon, their pizza was pretty decent and was certainly better than I expected. It had a fairly […]
BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse Review | Shenandoah, TX
BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse has locations in fifteen different states with the majority being in California and Texas, and I visited one in The Woodlands/Shenandoah just north of Houston, Texas. They have some televisions and a bar but still offer a pretty nice sit-down restaurant atmosphere. They serve a very large menu that starts out with a […]
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 […]
