Fodor's Expert Review Bazbeaux

Since 1986, this local fave has won raves for its "thin or thicker" pizza with a whopping 62 choices of toppings, from the mundane Italian sausage to the dare-you-to-try Cajun shrimp. It also offers a full slate of French bread sandwiches and huge salads. Besides the Broad Ripple location, there are outposts downtown (333 Massachusetts Ave.) and in Carmel (111 W. Main St.), all with outdoor dining options.
