  • I'm upping the rating of this place after coming here a second time. Before leaving Madison to conclude my mini "pizza tour" I decided to stop at Ians. I was not impressed in the least (see my 1 star review) and decided to head back to this place to get dinner. Both to get a decent slice of pizza and also to get some Italian subs to take back with me to Columbus (see my previous review of this place for a review on that sub). Yes their Italian sub was just so good I decided that, right before leaving I would come back to Pizza Di Roma and get 4 subs to take back with me to Columbus. At $7.95 a sub they are not cheap but worth every penny. I've eaten at a ton of pizza shops in my 42 years on the planet and gotten an Italian sub at every one that offered one and have yet to find anything as unique and delicious as what they offer at Pizza Di Roma. So this time I decided to try the traditional New York Style pizza with the toppings I always use as a comparative "baseline" so to speak. That baseline, which I usually order to judge all New York style pizza places upon is: Pepperoni, mushroom, onion and extra cheese. So I ordered my 4 subs to go and while doing so decided to also try their Ham and Cheese sub as well. And then while ordering my "baseline" pizza decided to try their Barbecue chicken and bacon pizza. First things first, their baseline pizza is superb. The slice with pepperoni, mushroom, onion and extra cheese was fantastic. I mean about as good as it gets for New York Style pizza. Add a dash of garlic powder to the slice and it's heaven. I honestly don't know how anyone can give this pizza place less than 4 stars based upon this slice alone. The barbecue, chicken and bacon pizza was also fantastic. The bacon was crisp, the chicken, while not too plentiful was decent and the barbecue was nice and sweet. The slice is VERY heavy as in you only need ONE slice to fill you up. In fact I ended up cutting off pieces of this and eating it over three settings it's such a heavy slice. It's also no doubt saturated with transfat and the like so this one should be a rare joy. I loved it though and that's saying because I don't really go off the "beaten path" for pizza in regards to non-traditional pizzas. Lastly the Ham and Cheese sub looked great when I opened it (see pic) and was utterly delicious from the small part I sampled. I say small part as I was filled up with pizza. However the sub was much like the Italian, the bread tasted homemade, not frozen and the meat and cheese top of the line. There is also plenty of fresh vegetables in there as well which gives you a small ability to kid yourself you ate somewhat healthy. All in all it's simply shameful in my opinion this place isn't rated higher on here. The help is quite friendly both times I came to the shop despite it being quite busy. They indulged all of my pizza talk about their styles of pizza as well as their competition. I cannot say enough great things about this place, if Ians is highly overrated on Yelp this place is highly underrated, ESPECIALLY their sub sandwiches. Take my advice, if you want New York style pizza this is the place to go in Madison!
