Hands down my favorite pizza place in Seoul.
The Good When they're on their game, they're on. They have a solid 4-6 varieties on hand at any time, but it's the depth of flavor combined with the price that makes this place special. At around 6,000 KRW per enormous slice and a small selection of beers and sodas, I get full on like 12-15,000 worth of food.
The Not So Good The first time I went here my pizza was burnt, no two ways about it. And I like a charred crust. But the pizza was carbonized to the point of being inedible. But because I had heard so many great things, I gave it another shot and I haven't had a bad slice since then. Still, some people might still find the crusts to be overcooked/burnt.
Final Thoughts There a (just a few) cheaper western options, but Maddux hits the perfect sweet spot of tasty and good value. While they do have some interesting toppings, I prefer the...

I think the manager ran out in the cold in his tee when a customer left something behind right as the restaurant was closing. Would still go back for a Sicilian...
Read morePizza place in Itaewon. Got really popular after they've got introduced in the Cable TV show. The Mc and Cheese pizza and pepperoni pjzza are famous. I think one grown man can handle two pieces. The dow is very crispy like any other american pizzas. However, I didn't thought it was a good pizza because first of all the cheese on the pizzas wasn't good. There was lack of flavor in those cheeses. Secondly, meatball wasn't meatball and peperoni wasn't salty enough. I went there at 1730 and had to wait 40 mins to get inside. You have to write your name on the paper right next...
