I've kinda been putting off writing this post because it's on Pizzology and remembering their pizza makes me want to weep.
{I just clicked over to their twitter page and I'm pretty sure the background image is the pizza we had, the Lombardy. Not only did my stomach just growl at the sight of it but my heart also cried out, "GO THERE TOMORROW!}
If you need a restaurant that's classy for adults yet kid-friendly, I promise you will fall in love with Pizzology.
They make out-of-this-world Neapolitan craft pizza. I am so not a food critic so while I can't break it down for you and explain why I loved it so much, please believe me that I did. A lot.
But I am a mom so what I am fully authorized to discuss is how I didn't worry about being in a white cloth napkin restaurant with my 3-year-old.
From the crayons and white-paper tablecloth to the pizza-making window, Madeline was perfectly comfortable eating in a restaurant known for their wine selection.
This has NEVER happened before, folks.
Noticing the Eiffel Tower olive oil container confirmed her love and made her shriek, "RATATOUILLE!"
And I loved that my server didn't laugh in my face when I ordered the fancy-schmancy prosciutto, arugula, smoked mozzarella and parmesan reggiano pizza but then asked for one slice with pepperoni for my pepperoni-loving girl.
Our family of three got out of there for less than $25 including tip, salad, pizza and a take-home box.
We can't even do that at Olive Garden and this is owned by a Hoosier couple and tastes waaaaaay better.
{Tangent, when I think of Olive Garden, I always think of Mike Birbiglia who says his family is Italian but not real Italian. More like Olive Garden Italian. You're welcome for that tangent.}
So take the kids and go try out Pizzology. Just drop off your leftovers at my house.

Yeah! I LOVE Pizzology. My friend, Lindy owns it (with her husband, Neal). Couldn't agree more about your review!:)
I'm smitten with Pizzology, too. Not only because it's so delish, but because for once in my suburban life the "it" place to eat is close to me. Like 10 minutes close. So if you ever come back and would like someone to help you out with that pie . . .
I highly recommend the pizza with brussel sprouts. I promise, even if you think you hate brussel sprouts you will love this pizza!
Sounds fabulous!
Oh and Olive Garden sends their Chefs to Italy to train. I saw it on a commercial so it must be true.
One of these days, I will make it to Pizzology.
But every time I hear Olive Garden, it reminds me of "The Bachelor" and the girl who said her favorite Italian restaurant was Olive Garden and how Andrew Firestone almost died on the spot and how I'm pretty sure he eliminated her that same night!
