| - Good pizza, interesting concept, but poor for delivery.
Their pesto pizza is solid, and their kalamata mozzarella is an inspired idea. When we first moved to Madison we could get two of their cleverly composed pizzas delivered for about $15, which was a bit cheaper than Glass Nickel, and due to novelty a better deal.
The past couple years prices have literally skyrocketed, and last time we ordered two pizzas and a 2-liter we spent about $32 for the exact same meal (ok...add $2 for the soda). I realize they're popular and all but this seems like a callous money-grab to me. Quality hasn't improved or anything, the prices have simply doubled.
All that said, definitely worth stopping in for a slice. They're not the best slices ever, but a $2.50 pepperoni will keep you going on the run and the mac and cheese slice has become a deservedly legendary post-drink starchathon. The bread is way better than Glass Nickel but as far as Madison pizza goes Ian's is still middling compared to Brutta, Porta Alba, Greenbush, or Lombardino's.
