2 slices and a drink fills me up every time. Good pizza and good people. It's the little things that make this place enjoyable. The pick a slice rack In the front has ready to eat pizzas.
The guys there wait a few minutes after the pizzas come out before adding them to the front case so the toppings don't slide off the top.

Gave it a 2nd try. The pizza is SUPER thin crust, which i forgot about. I'm more of a thicker thin crust of that makes sense. Had the half cheeseburger, half libby. Waaayyy too many jalapeños on the libby. The sauerkraut was plentiful, which made the crust soggy. The cheeseburger pizza was really good though. Their cheese bread os a large bread loaf, cut in half, and topped with cheese, searved with runny marinara. The marinara had good flavor! Not my most favorite crust,...

We ordered a meat lovers Chicago style pizza - it was delicious!! This will be from now on our pizza place here in Iowa City. Lots of fun variety in pizza toppings and specialty pizzas. Our pizza was well prepared and included yummy ingredients! The crust is my favorite part. 10/10 recommendation!
