Have you been to Hounddog’s Pizza in Columbus? I finally made it there last month and am pleased to say that the pizza was excellent.

From the parking lot, you walk through a heavy wooden door that resembles something that should be in a castle. From here, a long hallway leads you to a dimly lit dining room and adjacent bar. The walls are covered in memorabilia. The booths are large. The service is quick. And when the waitress brought our pizza she literally said “ta da!” as though she had performed a magic trick.

And honestly, after tasting the pizza, I kind of understand why. 

It did taste a little like magic.

We had veggies on the Smokin’ Joes crust which is hand tossed with their special garlic butter crust and Joes sauce. The crust was neither too thick nor too thin and just a little crispy on the bottom. 

Wowsa. It was good. Their slogan is “pizza for the people” and I get it. Adam and I were two very happy people.
