| - This is among the best pizzas available in Madison. Only Pizza Brutta is better*, and that's sort of a different experience anyway. Glass Nickel is also good, but it's a thicker, more filling (and less elegant) pizza.
The crust is nice and thin, the ingredients seem to be of good quality, and the flavor is good. The pizzas are normal size, but because of the thin crust, it's pretty easy for two people to eat a whole pizza in one sitting, without feeling bloated and sluggish afterwards. We rarely have leftovers from Roman Candle, which is probably good, since it doesn't re-heat as well as some other pizzas. (It's not inedible or anything, just not nearly as good as when it was fresh.)
It can take some time to find decent parking - we usually have to go a block to the west and park on the street with the bike trail - but nothing too onerous.
The store is pleasant enough - bright, with lots of windows for people-watching; magazines to read; and it's kept clean.
* Our absolute favorite non-Brutta pizza in WI is Sal's pizza in Milwaukee. That store is apparently owned by relatives of the owners of the late, great Casa Bianca, may it rest in peace.
