    Mapo tofu
    Calvin Y.

    Mapo tofu pizza isnt really good in my opinion. Got it just to try it and i regret it. Should have gone with my usual pizza options. Highly recommend the mac n cheese pizza or the bbq chicken pizza

    Cheesy Potato Pizza with Ranch Drunken Ravioli
    Roxie B.

    Food was 10 minutes past estimated time, but otherwise tasty and consistent. Both ravioli and potato pizzas were seasoned well. The crust was crispy and soft on the side. Good crisp pizza undercarriage. Breadsticks were soft and paired well with the ranch, jalapano ranch and butter dressings.

    Chicken Alfredo pizza and sausage, pepperoni pizza
    Deshawn G.

    This place has good pizza. Delicious and creative combinations I've never heard of before.. chicken Alfredo pizza with white sauce and pasta on the pizza was amazing.. quick and friendly service. Just pick out the slice of pizza you want and they will heat it up for you.. there's so much to choose from .....give them a try if you haven't......... this place is pizza heaven

    Cheese pizza and bulgogi pizza- so good!
    Ben W.

    Still unbeatable and best slice of cheese pizza out there with their authentic pizza sauce and crispy dough and cheese. I love the weekly rotating pizza specials which just keep getting better.

    Food rating outside the door!

    East side flair! Love the selections of pizza! Don't worry, they have salads and breadsticks! The seating outside is most enjoyable on a breezy, summer day. There is indoor seating as well. Select your food, pizza will be warmed in the oven and is to you in minutes. I was disappointed with the "garlic sauce" for my breadsticks as it was thick and still refrigerated and lacked a garlic taste..

    Caesar Salad

    Ian's Pizza is a 'by the slice' pizza place. The slices are pretty big and worth the price. I loved the feel of the place. There is a lot of cool art to look at that decorste the walls. They have a variety of special pizza slices you can choose from. It took me a minute to take in all the options and the worker was very patient explaining what some of their favorites were. I ended up getting a slice of the Mac and cheese (what they are known for) and the smoky bandit. My friend got the penne Alfredo and cheesy potato. I also ended up ordering a garlic bread and a half Cesaer salad. We dined in and I was enjoying every bite of my food. I loved the flavors of the different pizzas and how creative they get into blending the ingredients so it pairs well. They had a few pizzas that I wanted to try so I'll definitely have to make a trip back to Milwaukeee for some. The Cesaer salad was huge for a side portion but was worth it. I'm not use to eggs being included with a Caesar but I'm not mad at it. The garlic bread looks amazing but if you need to skip out on something you could forgo that. It was just okay. But overall their pizzas are where it's at.

    a row of arcade machines

    I will always have a warm spot in my heart for Ian's, the pizza delivered to us in the protests against Act 10 in Madison. To me, this pizza tastes like justice. But pizza, like justice, is best fresh out of the oven, so what you want do at this location is ask which pizza was most recently made or is there a pizza coming out very soon. It's a nice place to eat in, but you have to be ready to climb the stairs. They have some old school arcade games so get your quarters before going up. I'm not a big fan of macaroni and cheese as a pizza but if you've never had the experience you should try it at least once in your life. And it doesn't matter what your political views are, peaceful protest is an important part of the way democracy works, and this truly the best pizza for making democracy work.

    Mac n' Cheese Pizza
    Evbu O.

    I recently visited Milwaukee and had to stop by Ian's Pizza. Having been here dozens of times when I lived in Milwaukee, I can honestly say I love it. I always get the Mac n' Cheese pizza with green chile ranch, and it never disappoints. It's a chill place with great pizza, and I'll always recommend it to anyone looking for a quick and casual dining experience.

    Its a tradition for me and my sister to come here whenever I visit her. The mac n cheese never disappoints- I usually get that and another one but honestly always wish I just got 2 mac and cheese pizzas. Also look how crazy my sister eats her pizza

    Met friends at Zaffiro's for dinner, a place they consider one of their favorites. They have always…read moreraved about how incredible the pizza is, and I have to agree. This old school, family owned restaurant is very much a neighborhood classic that has stood the test of time. The thin crust is the perfect base for the amazingly tangy Italian sauce. The toppings are generously portioned, and the pizza (available in 12" & 14") is cut into squares, which make it all too easy to eat more! We started with the fried mushrooms and eggplant, which were very generously sized. Our table of four barely made a dent. The breading on both was great, trapping in the heat, flavors and firmness of the veggies. The eggplant especially, which in my experience can be mushy, was excellent. I loved how it was served with lemon wedges. The tartness of the lemon mixed with the zest of the marinara sauce made the eggplant something I could have eaten just by itself. The restaurant has a bar area first, then a dining room adjacent. The tables here are packed in pretty tight. We ended up at a corner table, and could bump elbows with the people sitting next to us. Still, everyone was respectful of each other's space and no issues were had. Our servers maneuvered through effortlessly and quickly.

    Ok my first mistake when moving to the Milwaukee area and knowing nothing about this place was…read moregetting a beef sandwich. Knowing more about this restaurant today I ordered a small sausage pizza. The place it self is dated and divy so it's not a good date place. It's small with a small bar as you walk in and a dinner room on the other side. I called in a small sausage pizza and I was told 30 minutes while I was parked in front of the place with no visible traffic which I thought was a long time. 25 minutes later I go and get it. I ate it one minute after walking out and you could tell it was sitting around for awhile because the cheese had no pull and it was solidifying. It did look good with that thin cracker crust and reminded me of when I lived in Chicago we would order this style of pizza to the bar. The pizza had a nice thin cracker crust. The sauce was on the sweet side. The Italian sausage was the star because it was the quintessential perfect pizza sausage and seasoned nicely like a good Italian sausage. The pizza was still good and delicious but fresh out of the oven would the way to go. Overall if the pizza was fresh out of the oven and you sat in the restaurant is the way to go in my opinion.

    What a fabulous meal and experience atTaurp Cocina! 3 of us…read morewent last Sunday, Aug 23rd, to celebrate a birthday. Actually 2 of the 3 of us had a birthday in the last 4 weeks. 1 of us had been to Tauro Cocina before. The food was excellent! We shared a house salad which was very good. The 3 entries ordered were: Linguine al Poblano, (house-made linguine tossed in our specialty poblano pesto with grilled chicken) Cilantro Risotto (cilantro cream risotto, served with spicy grilled shrimp, topped with shaved parmesan) And Grilled Salmon (served with your choice of risotto & sauteed seasonal. Each one was unique, so flavorful & freshly prepared. Excellent! The service was top notch. I had called earlier to see if they did anything for birthdays. The reply was yes. When arriving the host asked if we were celebrating any special event, confirming my call. Through the entire meal service was attentive without being obtrusive. When our plates were cleaned (with leftovers for each of us) the server brought out plates for both birthday friends. The plates had 3 churros, a small dish of warm chocolate sauce, were decorated with Happy Birthday & a candle. All with finesse. An overall great meal and great experience. Definitely worth visiting & I will be returning.

The menu offers enough options without being too big; we were intrigued by the italian/mexican fusion. Everything we ordered was delicious. The calamari was a great starter with a spicy red sauce. The pastas were fantastic. Finally the birthday churros the waiter delivered changed my stance on churros. They were fresh out of the fryer, hot and crispy. Gone in no time. The only complaint i can offer is that our server was not as attentive as you'd want. It wasn't bad service; just not as prompt as you'd expect (i.e. asked how our food was as we were halfway through the dish, we finished our cocktails and were never asked if we wanted another, empty plates sat on the table a bit longer than they should). None of which will keep us from coming back. Will chalk it up to a busy Saturday first seating.

    This is a must try if you're in Milwaukee!…read more Watching the pizzas being made right in front of you is an experience in itself. The open kitchen lets you see the craftsmanship that goes into every order, and the team is friendly, welcoming, and happy to interact with guests. Their passion for what they do really stands out. I definitely ordered more than I could finish, but it was worth it! I recommend enjoying the pizza at the restaurant since it's best fresh from the oven. Since this is an authentic Italian restaurant, they don't serve ranch with their pizza, which I completely understand. I personally love a good ranch with my pizza, but that's just my preference. The Caprese salad was fresh and flavorful, and the pasta ball appetizer was delicious. Between the quality of the food, the welcoming atmosphere, and getting to watch everything come together, this was one of my favorite dining experiences in Milwaukee. I will definitely be back.

    12/10 Absolutely a must go!…read more One of the only places willing to accommodate a larger reservation for my graduation dinner which was a huge plus. I was also excited to try this place because we have had Calderone club (same ownership) and we love it. This place exceeded expectations with a specialty of neopolitan pizza from a brick oven it truly is great! I would also recommend their cocktails which are just as good as the food. We also enjoyed their special pasta and the eggplant fries. Everyone was silent during dinner as they were busy enjoying. We also enjoyed our server who engaged with us entered great conversations and made tremendous recommendations. We loved the Friday night atmosphere as well make sure to grab a reservation.
