I bet you prefer Keystone light over Boulevard too.

Black Market is the best pizza in Ames. It's a little expensive, but well worth it

DO NOT EAT THE HOT DOGS AT MICKEY'S.
The buffet is fine though.

I've only eaten at Battle's once, but I thought it was a bit overpriced (I was probably comparing it to HP) and the food wasn't anything special.

What's the big appeal for you?

The Spice. Thai food. Downtown.

I'm a Hickory Park fan. My son, a student, recommends Jeff's Pizza and Superdawgs. We are such a classy family.

Our favorites were always Jeff's and King Buffet. Haha, yeah I know. The Hibachi place was good too.

Love the sauce and it's a lot closer to campus.

Personal preference.

Isn't it closed? I try to avoid Campustown for the most part, but I think it's closed. I know ours in Nevada is.

The Ames location was re-opened quite a while ago. Not sure what will happen to them in the future though as Kum and Go has recently purchased the building they are in.

Not sure about the best as I like Great Plains as well, but I love Black Market's Chicago style (Homemade sausage with black olives is amazing!). I think a lot of people formed their opinion of Black Market early on when they were struggling, they seem to have straightened things out for the most part now.
