| - I have absolutely loved Garcia's Pizza for 37 years ever since experiencing it in college on the campuses of Illinois State University & the University of Illinois. The atmosphere is hip and the service is fast, especially if you order that famous Garcia's rectangle slice. (One slice is sufficient, for me, because of the thick crust, and perfect amount of toppings. However, I do remember in college going back up to the counter for seconds, simply because the first had absolutely melted in my mouth.) Their pizza had such a unique taste that we, as college students, even on a budget, would just HAVE to go there at least once a week to have a slice of that hot, fresh-out-of-the-oven, soft, yeast-rich thick crust with oozing cheese!
The prices were always reasonable, and they still are.
The whole pan pizzas are stuffed with goodness, and I've actually had one sent to me all of the way to AZ, from my sister-in-law.
Yes! It was THAT awesome!
While we were visiting Champaign, this Christmas, my son and husband brought home some slices of Garcia's pizza, and while they were there they ran into Ralph Garcia, himself. (See the photos that they took for me.)
