Donato's pizza any good?

apparently, Red Robin is serving it now
I've only had it once... Earlier this year when I was in Indy. We got in late, nothing available at the hotel, so we ordered via Grubhub. It had a decent rating on Grubhub so thought it might be alright.

Took an hour to get to us, so it wasn't still hot. As CD might say, I was "unimpressed." Not sure I would have changed my opinion one iota if it had arrived hot and fresh, either. Seemed like cheap, bad, chain restaurant delivery pizza.

We had Donato's in Cincy, they were probably the best of the chain places.  I'd get Papa John's a lot because they were cheap and my kids liked them.

It's all right for chain pizza, if you like thin crust edge to edge style. My kids love it.

Dominos has gotten better in the last 10 years. Where I live it's the only pizza worth a damn.

Most of the pizza around here is the super-thin-crust cut into squares. It's fine if you're in the mood for it, but there is also a tendency to only cook the pizza long enough to barely melt the cheese in the middle. It's disgusting. That type of pizza needs to be cooked until the cheese gets dark brown.

Just the sh*thole states, as a certain someone would label them?

I've thought about moving south to Arkansas for retirement

much less cold and snow

property seems inexpensive

golf courses readily available for decent prices

why wouldn't Kansas be on the list?  between nebraska and Oklahomo and Mizzou

That kind of pizza (tavern) needs to be cooked until the crust is crispy, like a cracker. I always specify that when I order.

It's a weird list, and probably in accurate.  The more rural states would almost always have lower costs.  Anything in about any city gets expensive.

And of course parts of rural Georgia have low costs, parts of urban Atlanta do not, so even upstate New York probably has some areas with lower costs.

Ugh.

Madison, WI is not a cheap place to live, at all.

I always find lists like this a little silly, because when push comes to shove, states are anything but monolithic (in some ways, cities too).

90% of the board would prefer Florida to California, and probably be kicking and screaming the whole way to the latter state. But if offered the choice between being in Belle Glade and B.R.A.D’s neighbor, they’re westward bound.

My point in this thread is that MOST rankings are silly, in my view (ugh), and yet they persist and multiply.  Obviously, one area in a state can be pretty cheap and a hundred miles away be very expensive.
