Rossi's "the best pizza on the planet" Pizza could soon get a West Side location.

Ross Parisi, who founded his pizza restaurant in 2003 and moved to 4503 Monona Dr., three years ago, was a bit cagey about where his new location will be.

"Bad news travels fast," he said, laughing.

Parisi said he is looking at three places on the Madison-Middleton border.

"The Madison-Middleton line does some weird, strange turns, pretty much like the place I'm in right now. I'm in Monona and I can throw a rock across the street and that's Madison."

He hopes to have the West Side location open by the first of the year.

The new place will be similar to the original restaurant, but with a more extensive menu and more vintage arcade games, Parisi said.

He will have probably 80 to 100 video games in new location, which will be a lot bigger. "We grew out of this six months after we moved in."

The Monona Rossi's has 50 video games. ("No tokens, no tickets, and no crummy little rubber prizes," the website boasts.)

The new place will have a larger menu. Everything currently on the menu -- pizza, wings, appetizers, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, desserts -- will be available at the new place, but there will be more, Parisi said, giving no further details.
