Pizza John's

This restaurant is possibly the best Italian food and pizza in Baltimore. You would never know it to drive by the location. Out front is a huge statue of a guy holding a pizza. The buildling's architecture looks like something out of a movie. Though it's well maintained it's just not what you'd expect high quality food to be served. The pizzas are fantastic. When I say we get to have pizza for dinner this is where my children beg to go. All of the items used in the foods are fresh. Everything is made right on the property. You can order carry out which is great if the place is packed which it usually is near dinner time.

PROS: Superb quality pizza
CONS: Usually very busy at dinner time

Even while living 30 miles away, I will still venture back to Baltimore as often as possible to go to Pizza John's. We would go there for all occasions back in high school before it was expanded and it is still a popular hangout for teens. Since the expansion, they offer even more seating and even a dessert bar, which is a nice addition. The only downside is that they aren't open on Mondays, but since they are a family owned business, I can understand why they need a day off. But if you haven't had Pizza Johns yet, you must try it!

PROS: Great food, great service
CONS: No delivery, not open on Mondays

They have the best pizza anywhere around. The food is homemade and is always hot. .This is a very family oriented place with plenty of seating. There is plenty of parking in a well lit parking lot with numerous handicap spots. the employees are more than friendly and eager to help you.

I love going and getting a pizza from this place. The crust is wonderful (thin) and the pizza has some grease (which makes it very good). The prices are also comparable to other chains in the area. You have your choice of take out or eating in. They also sell pasta dishes and subs. Another thing that stands out is they sell all the ingredients to buy and make their dishes at home also.

PROS: Very good food
CONS: Usually crowded...especially on the weekends
