| - Metro pizza has been around since I moved here almost 20 years ago. They've always had extremely good quality for a reasonable price. The two locations I've been to have a New York style decor and a very friendly environment.
Recently, a couple co-workers and I decided to order from there for lunch. I chose one of the stuffed pizzas called "The Loop", which references Chicago deep dish pizzas. However, their stuffed pizzas are nothing like deep dish pizzas from Chicago. From the description on the menu, this calzone-like dish comes with sausage, pepperoni, and mushrooms, and cheese (all my fav pizza toppings) stuffed inside a doughy shell.
When the delivery guy showed up I was starving and couldn't wait to dig in. Upon opening the mini pizza box, I found exactly what the description foretold. This thing was so big (I got the smaller sized one) that I could only eat half. It also comes with your choice of dipping sauce, marinara or meat. However, it is ridiculously greasy. So much so that it bled through the box and even through the wax paper underneath it. Overall it was excellent. It was even good the next day since I only ate half.
Additionally, I highly recommend the parmesan-romano fries. It's just french fries, but they cover them in the above mentioned cheeses and fresh garlic. They come served with ranch.
