Huge snow /ice storm over the last couple days :. After a long drive home from Indy we were starving and trying to get some food and a beer..LITERALLY everyone’s staff had called in and was closed except Clara’s! Hallee was managing the kitchen, but taking all walk in guests and providing amazing service.. had a beer while we waited for a to-go pizza and are super grateful for our amazing service!

Seinfeld Episode: “The Bag Pizza Fiasco” Pizza king - Thursday night Jerry, George, Elaine, and Kramer are crammed into their usual booth. Jerry’s picking at a slice of pizza on a plate, looking skeptical. The pizza box sits open, but it’s oddly crumpled, like it’s been through a war. JERRY (pointing at the pizza) What is this? I mean, what is this? Thirty bucks for a 14-inch pizza, and it shows up in a bag? A bag, George! Like it’s takeout lo mein! GEORGE (slamming his coffee mug down) A bag?! Who delivers pizza in a bag? Was it a paper bag? Plastic? Was it one of those reusable tote bags from Whole Foods? I need specifics, Jerry! JERRY Paper. Thin, greasy paper. The kind that rips when you look at it wrong. I open it, and the cheese is sliding off like it’s trying to escape! ELAINE (leaning in, incredulous) Wait, wait, wait. You paid thirty dollars for this? For a pizza that looks like it was delivered by a bicycle courier with a grudge? JERRY Exactly! And it wasn’t even good! It’s like they forgot the flavor. It’s just… dough and sadness. KRAMER (bursting in, wild-eyed, holding a crumpled paper bag) Jerry, I heard about your pizza situation. This is a travesty! A culinary crime! I’m starting a petition—pizza deserves boxes, man! Boxes! (slaps the table) It’s about respect! GEORGE (muttering, staring at his hands) Thirty dollars… I could’ve gotten two footlongs from Subway for that. Two! With extra banana peppers! INT. PIZZA PLACE - LATER The gang storms into the pizzeria, a dimly lit joint called “Slice of Heaven.” A bored cashier, TONY, leans on the counter, chewing gum. The place smells faintly of burnt crust. JERRY (approaching Tony) Excuse me, Tony, is it? Can you explain why my pizza came in a bag? A bag! What’s next, delivering calzones in a sock? TONY (shrugs) Boxes are expensive, man. Bags are eco-friendly. You got a problem with saving the planet? ELAINE (snorting) Eco-friendly? The pizza was practically a soup by the time it got to Jerry’s! The toppings were swimming in grease! KRAMER (pointing dramatically) This is an outrage! You’re destabilizing the pizza ecosystem! Boxes provide structure, Tony! Structure! TONY (deadpan) You want structure? Go eat at Domino’s. GEORGE (panicking, voice rising) I can’t go to Domino’s! They know me there! I’m banned for life after the “extra cheese incident” of ’93! INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT - NIGHT The gang’s back at Jerry’s, surrounded by takeout containers. Kramer’s pacing, holding a pizza box like it’s a sacred artifact. KRAMER (intense) I’m telling you, Jerry, this bag thing—it’s a conspiracy. Big Paper’s trying to take down Big Cardboard. I’m going to the top with this! ELAINE (rolling her eyes, eating Chinese food) Kramer, you’re nuts. It’s just a bad pizza place. Let it go. JERRY (sighs, tossing a crust onto the table) You know what the worst part is? I’m still hungry. Thirty bucks, and I’m sitting here dreaming of a Hot Pocket. GEORGE (staring into space, haunted) Thirty bucks… I could’ve bought a new tie. A nice tie. Maybe even a clip-on… Suddenly, NEWMAN bursts in, holding a pristine pizza box from a rival joint, “Pizza Palace.” NEWMAN (smirking) Well, well, well, Seinfeld. Heard about your little bag pizza debacle. Should’ve gone to Pizza Palace. (opens the box, revealing a perfect pie) Boxes, Jerry. It’s all about the boxes. JERRY (glaring) Get out, Newman. Newman chuckles, takes a slice, and saunters out. The gang stares at the pizza box longingly as the screen fades to black. CLOSING CREDITS Over the funky bassline, we see Kramer outside “Slice of Heaven,” picketing with a sign that reads: “BRING BACK THE BOX!” A crowd of confused passersby ignores him. FADE OUT.

Melinda was our waitress who did an awesome job! She came up several time to check on us and refilled drinks and such. She was pleasant and helpful and overall she helped make it a good experience. We always eat it all or take it home. Always a wonderful place to eat!

Lindsey G is awesome! The food and service are great. I get the half-baked breadsticks and a King Way pizza pep/sausage, and it is one of the best in the game! Keep doing what you all doing! Thanks to everyone involved!

I've driven past this place for years, so I finally decided to try it. I phoned in a takeout order for a royal feast. They were great with service and the pizza came out hot and quick. They cut it into squares and the pizza is more thin than a pan. The toppings were plentiful. The taste was forgettable, though, and overall I didn't like the pizza - the sauce was very skimpy, cheese not there and the rest was meh. Overall wouldn't recommend, price wasn't justified, but it is edible. I tried it but won't again. Not my jam.
