This is about as good as pizza in Madison can be. As a man grown from Chicago, I understand the limitations Madison has, but Glass Nickel does pizza and service right. I've been to the East side location and gotten kindness, camraderie and warmth all the way. The pizza is piping hot, tastes good, and has a lot of variety and color.
The atmosphere is quite casual, the food is good, and the people are nice. The prices are a tad high, so I don't go that often, but if doing delivery, they are reasonable about delivery fees compared to the rest of Madison. This place is pretty phenomenal.
