    Okay this place is a special place but I definitely have mixed feelings on it. Firstly, the pizza is fantastic! Some of the best you'll find in Iowa. That makes a lot of the negatives that I'm about to say get dismissed. They have a decent size indoor seating area and a small patio. This place is located right down the street from Drake University. So there is a high chance you'll be surrounded by college students when visiting here. This was the first place in Iowa though where I didn't feel a warm welcome from the staff. Rather I felt like I was wasting their time and they didn't want to help answer any questions I had. The staff was extremely rude to me and made me feel very uncomfortable while I waited for my food. The biggest problem I had was the fact that I ordered 2 slices of pizza and it took 35 minutes to get the slices. I get it, they probably wanted to make a fresh pizza. Cool I respect that! However 35 minutes is a bit much for any pizza. Then I receive the slice and you have a triangle pizza slice cut into potential squares. What kind of person cuts a traditional New York pizza slice into squares after it was already a triangle?! It was extremely frustrating on many levels because the joy of a New York slice is having that experience of picking up the whole slice. Rather than having to pick up 6-7 smaller slices. Again what redeems all the bad is this is a phenomenal pizza. However, they really need to work on the timing of the pizza, customer service, and please don't cut a pizza slice into squares unless you're making a Detroit style pizza. I would visit this place again because of the good pizza. However I'll go in now knowing the rest is not great.

    Pizza was ok. Honestly I've had better frozen pizzas. The staff was kind of rude but they were also busy so I get it. The ambiance is typical pizza spot.

    This pizza place was within walking distance from our hotel, the Home2 Suites by Hilton. I really enjoyed the pie. It was a NY style thin crust with plain tomato sauce. It was a busy restaurant but there was ample seating.

    Get the wings. Period. They're fantastic. Great NY style pizza with plenty of options for toppings. Close by Drake University. Nice atmosphere for a relaxing sports and drinks kind of day provided by excellent staff!

    Hog Wild Pizza
    Harrison T.

    Came here to grab a pizza for the family party. Decided to get the Hog Wild and ultimately decided on the 26" pizza. We had many friends and kids over so why not. When placing the order the host reminded us about how big it was going to be and we decided that was going to be fine. Boy was the pizza huge! The box could barely fit through the door and thank goodness we had borrowed the van because I'm not sure it would fit into a normal sedan. Anyway, the pizza tasted fantastic, the pizza was thin and the sauce and flavors were just absorbed by the dough. Very flavorful, the pizza was cooked just right and everyone was able to pick at a slice. The pizza was cut into squares making it much more shareable. The whole thing took 45 minutes to cook, and I'm not sure if it's always that long to bake or they were just extra busy the day we went in.

    On the dave portnoy scale I give this a 7.2 the undercarriage is a little soft but I love this pizza. If the crust was a tad crispier it would be higher but I love this pizza

    Breadstick Bites YUM

    Very nice and friendly staff. They have many different pizza topping options as well as if you just want a slice (which is still HUGE) or if you want to order a whole pizza with varying sizes. The bread bites were delicious. I got a slice of the hawaiiowan, pepperoni and mushroom, pepperoni and olive, and the taco pizza. All were amazing and each slice filled us up. They also have different sides and deserts which is nice to pick from. The only reason I'm giving a 4 is because I feel like it wasn't very busy when we went but we had to keep asking about our orders and checking on things and items that weren't ours were being brought to us. There was just a lot of stuff going on for not that many customers being in there. Of course that was from why I could see, I couldn't see what was going on in the back. The inside is very nice and inviting and has many places to sit and a self serve station with plates, forks and cheese/pepper flakes for on top of the pizza

    Alright, seriously a great place to get fire roasted pizza. The dough fits their name, the dough for the crust was crispy on the outside where you can hear the crack, but soft and chewy inside! We got the Big Moe and the Giovanni! Totally worth it! The Big Moe is sweet and savory with a bit of tang and kick to it! The Giovanni is nice and fresh tasting even with the extra oil from the pesto, it's still a must to try! With both types the chicken is seriously perfectly cooked and from the taste and look it's not the cheap frozen "grilled" chicken. Instead the chicken tastes fresh, is tender, and juicy. The breadsticks are good too! The marinara sauce is tangy and suits the garlicky bread sticks. Would definitely recommend! Also! They have all sizes and a huge jumbo size worth for parties!

    Visited the new Ankeny location for Dough Co this weekend! Restaurant is brand new not sure when they officially opened but the staff was friendly and the service was excellent. You order at the counter and pay type of situation. I instantly loved that you could order any pizza by the slice if you wanted. The menu has a good variety of pizza, salads and sandwiches too! Something for everyone. We ordered a 20" pizza which fed 3 kids and 1 adult, was 8 large slices! The pizza slices are huge which was great. And I ordered myself a slice of the Giovanni because it looked delish and I wanted to try it out- was really good. The crust was awesome, thin but no to thin and crispy. We loved the over sized booth in the back - big enough to fit our crew with kids. We really enjoyed this place for our first time, we will be back! So nice having fun new places open in the district!

Their menu has traditional pizzas such as sausage, pepperoni, and meatzilla. They also have some unique Asian inspired creations like Tai Chicken, Mac and Cheese, General Tso's Chicken, Iowan, Crab Ragoon, and Korean Beef Chicken pizzas. They also have soups and salads, and Chinese food entrees like Beef and Broccoli, Stir-Fry Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Orange Chicken, and Chili Garlic Shrimp. And yes, they have some of the best tiki drinks and mocktails around. I ordered a Painkiller and a Waving Cat to go with my Bang Bang Chicken Pizza. It took them about 12 minutes to prepare my pie. It was fresh and hot. It was also so good. I have never had a pizza like that before. It was very flavorful and tasty. It was so good, I even forgot to take a picture of it because I just jumped right in. My drinks came out much sooner, and they were also really, really good. The staff there was very friendly and attentive. My service was first class. I am so glad I found this spot and got to experience it. I highly recommend this place, and I definitely will be back very soon.
