Attempt #50 - Domino's Pizza

Pizza Snapshot Dominos
The Venue
1396 7th Ave
Marion, IA 52302
(319) 377-0030

As I'm sure most of you are shock by reading this. Yup. Dominos. For our 50th attempt, we ordered from Dominos. That was due to my mistake that the Lincoln Winebar is not open on Mondays. Because of this reason, that will occur sometime in July. Since it was last minute, we had it off site-meaning no Venue rating for this attempt.

The Verdict

The pizza kept warm on the ride home, and smelled great. Each pie was cut in triangle except for the thin crust Fiery Hawaiian-that was cut into small rectangles. The pizza itself wasn't the best; but it wasn't bad either. Over half of the group voted that the Philly Cheese Steak was their favorite...it had a good blend of meat and white cheese sauce which made an exceptionally delicious taste in your mouth after each bite. Personally, I enjoyed the Pan style pizza because it reminded me of Tomaso's Detroit crust except it didn't have very much caramelized cheese alongside the rim of the crust.
