A Slice of Iowa's Finest: An Ode to Pizza For pizza aficionados in Iowa, an exquisite slice is a rare jewel. Unfortunately, the state's pizza landscape is littered with pies that are overly salty, lack freshness, or simply miss the mark when it comes to the authentic pizza experience. The search for that perfect balance of flavorsome sauce, well proportioned toppings, and a crust that's just right can seem like a never ending journey. Yet, amid this landscape, Mike's Pizza and Steakhouse shines as a beacon of hope, consistently delivering pizzas that not only satisfy the palate but also capture the heart. As I stepped into the restaurant, I was immediately greeted by the tantalizing aroma of baking dough and melted cheese – a scent that was as comforting as a warm blanket on a cold winter's night. Each pizza at Mike's Pizza and Steakhouse is a symphony of flavors, harmoniously working together to create a gustatory masterpiece. The crust strikes a delicate balance between crispy and chewy, and as for the toppings – well, let's just say they're generous enough to make a decade long feud between pineapple and non pineapple pizza lovers look like a light disagreement. The cheese is as rich and indulgent as a billionaire on a shopping spree, and the sauce – oh, the sauce! It's a tomato based love letter to anyone who appreciates the finer things in life. The pepperoni slice I tried was a Wall Street tycoon bold, confident, and packing a flavorful punch. The veggie option was like a well traveled scholar, offering a delightful array of international flavors. And let's not forget the Margarita, a minimalist marvel, proving there's beauty in simplicity. In conclusion, Mike's Pizza and steakhouse lives up to the hype. It's a place where the pizza is so good, you'll want to write sonnets about it. But be warned, once you've had a taste, you might find yourself permanently relocating to Iowa. Pizza lovers, let the pilgrimage begin!

The locals suggested this place to me. It's close to, if not, the best pizza I've ever eaten. Mike got it right. The crust was so perfect. I was very impressed. The Greek salad was spot on too. If I could give 6 stars, I would. I met Mike, he had an Italian accent. And I had such a good experience, I bought a Mike's Pizza T-shirt from him, so I could remember it. Service: Dine in
