Is it just east of Lantern Road?? Fri, 04 Apr 2008 00:44:33 -0400 http://www.indy.com/posts/6417#comment_19625 http://www.indy.com/posts/6417#comment_19625 randydaytona Dyno Jax is great. I love the Italian Beef. I agree about everything Chicago being over hyped. Hopefully one day everyone from Chicago and Northern Indiana will realize Chicago isn't LA or NYC and never will be.

If they hadn't been hyped in the first place, many people would never have discovered their wonderful qualities that draw such loyalty!!

Check it out on 82nd street. Yum!! Drop me a line if you want to grab some friends and split the pie... one piece can be a meal!

PS - Chicago style anything is so OVER-HYPED! Hot Dogs, Pizza, Cubs, Bears, Capone. NYC pizza and dogs are so much better and the Yankees RULE! Sorry.

There's OK pizza, but nothing that resembles even your run of the mill Chicagoland pizza restaurant. Don't even bother looking. There's no Italian Beef either - pizza and beef are a package deal.

There is a Donatos out front.

Maria's should be open any day now, in Fountain Square. I'm not sure what their crust is like, but this place is legendary, and I'm excited it's now in the Square.

I like union jacks though. Thu, 03 Apr 2008 14:06:30 -0400 http://www.indy.com/posts/6417#comment_19552 http://www.indy.com/posts/6417#comment_19552 Jester Agreed on Ale Emporium, great pizza. Union Jack also makes great deep dish. Family friendly, too.

One in Clermont, one in Bargersville, another in Franklin. There's a fairly new Godfather's Pizza in Greenwood, haven't been there yet but I have fond memories from years ago. And there's Sweet Home Chicago in Brownsburg. I haven't tried the pizza there yet either but it looks good. Every time I'm there, I have the intention of trying the pizza but I always end up getting the hot dogs or italian beef.

I know it can be tough to describe, but which strip mall is it in? The one where Blockbuster's been ever since? Ale Emporium and Grambolis (off Pendleton Pike on the NE side) are both pretty darn good and were my 1st thoughts. Grambolis has been there a looooong time and I think is a nice place to support. Killer breadsticks, too.

Now I'll have to get some this week.

Nancy's is good for families and does a lot of take-out. Ale Emporium is a bar so you have to be 21 to enter. Their deep dish pizza is not quite as saucy as what I think of as Chicago style, but the crust has the buttery-crispiness I like and there's tons of cheese.
