| - Roman Candle Pizzeria has quickly become my favorite pizza place in Middleton. Granted, there isn't a whole lot of competition in the area. Regardless, Roman Candle consistently serves an excellent thin crust pizza and has a good tap selection. I've never had a bad experience here, and I've never been to the Willy Street location so I can't compare. The prices are a slightly high compared to other Middleton places but fair for what they offer, though I bet a made-to-order pizza could start to get pricey. Overall it is a strong four star place, with only a few drawbacks.
I tend to always go with one of the specialties as I don't usually care to take the time to argue about the toppings on a made-to-order pie. The specialties at Roman Candle are all good. My personal favorite is the Professional, though had you told me that I'd really enjoy broccoli on a pizza a few years ago I'd never have believed it. The jalepenos combine with the creamy alfredo sauce exceedingly well, and if it weren't for a desire to try the others I probably wouldn't have ever ordered anything else. The signature Roman Candle pizza is another one of my favorites - I apparently love the spicy pizzas. My last time there we went with the Pestoral. At first I thought that it was a bit much, since a little pesto can go a long way for my taste. However, by the second slice I was really enjoying it. It was the kind of pizza that only works for me on crispy thin crust, which was perfect in balancing out the melted feta and mozzarella and the olive oil. Also, the little fold-down trays for the pizza are really a brilliant idea. I haven't ever tried the pasta here, but it is all RP's and on that alone I can recommend it. Also, the appetizers here are all tasty. The deluxe cheese breadsticks with marinara are a meal in itself, and the garlic bread with spinach and cheese is a standard. I also want to try the shallot and bleu cheese filo wraps one of these times. The tap selection changes from time to time, but there always seems to be a couple Lake Louies and of course Capital.
The drawbacks to the place are that service can be pretty slow, though the waitstaff always is apologetic about it. I've never stopped for lunch, but a friend that works in the area has always said that it is quite busy. The booths can be a bit uncomfortable, as they have hard backs. Sometimes the young children can get a bit out of control, and the place can get a bit loud. These are all fairly minor issues, and are all pretty common for downtown Middleton. I haven't gotten delivery from this location so I don't know how fast it is, but it is free for orders over $12.
