| - I know a lot of people who don't care for Ian's--but I'm not one of them and I'll explain why.
Ian's can do pizza the way most people are used to: marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella, traditional toppings like pepperoni, sausage, black olives--you know how it goes.
Or it can do pizza the way pizza was meant to be done: excitingly, exotic, and experimentally. My personal favorite pizza is the Smokey and the Bandit which has BBQ sauce, potatoes, chicken, and ranch dressing. Most of my friends hate this idea, but it is honest to god the best and only pizza I get when I have pizza cravings during finals. But there's also other gems that make Ian's worth a shot: Steak and Fries is solid, and while you're in Madison, the Mac and Cheese is a MUST!
The crust has been criticized by people I know for being too plain, and maybe that is true--but I have no problem with it. The real star of the pizza is the topping and the flavorings, the crust is just a vehicle as far as I'm concerned.
But Ian's has other things than pizza that I love: a friendly staff and delectable, melt-in-your-mouth brownies. And for that, Ian's is one of my Madison favorites.
