| - Sometimes I feel really reassured when I power up my computer, go to get my Yelp on (yes, this is a thing), start a review and...see that THE WORLD is already capturing all my feels.
The short summary is: sure, sure, you gotta pizza' my heart, Maker.
But, to join the chorus, I adore Maker Pizza. I just wish it were slightly better value: less money and/or a little more substantial.
What I can say, though, is: much like the 'cilantro gene', there must be one for people who love pineapple on pizza. I am one of them. And I am glad that Maker Pizza honours this with Tropic Thunder, my fave pizza on their menu. Generally though: their pizzas are extremely well-seasoned, creatively topped, and the crust is the stuff of legend.
I can also say that I have never experienced the poor or gruff service that many reviews detail. I strategically go at 'off' times so that things aren't too bananas and I don't have to wait for either eat-in or carry-out (see, trouble shooting: maybe people have shorter bandwidth during rush hour? Not an excuse, but possibly an explanation). I've never had anything but friendly service, good beats while I wait, and a great selection of soda/pop (take your pick) to lube up the ol' pizza passageways (see: digestive tract).
I like the space, too, capturing the 'industrial-chic' vibe. It's not cozy, and not a place you'll want to hang out for hours, but it's a great place to roll up and chow down.
Yelp note: new location opening *imminently* at Avenue Road / Lawrence!
