Pepperoni rolls at Zio's

Alright, we ran into our first controversy on Friday at Zio's (111South 13th Street). I have been eating a lot of your standard triangular pizza lately. So at Zio's, which I went to with Rob from MAGMA, I decided to try the pepperoni roll. Now, when I was at college at Radford, we had a restaurant that was very famous for serving crusties, which were essentially pepperoni rolls that you could get stuffed with anything you want. With a hunger fueled by gallons of beer and occasionally the inhalation of deadly marijuana, crazed college students would order dozens of these things at 2 in the morning. So seeing these pepperoni rolls at Zio's took me back, and I had to order one, although to keep things even, I also ordered a BBQ chicken standard slice. The BBQ chicken slice was fine, nothing amazing, a good solid 3 pepperoni slice. But the pepperoni roll gets a ho-ho-ho my goodness. It is the best pizza product I have had on the search so far. Soft and doughey and stuffed with just enough cheese, it blew my doors. But what can I classify it as? I mean, it's not really pizza, per se. So can I hand out pepperoni's based on something that's not pizza? Let me mull over that while you read Rob's take:

I give my Sausage 3 1/2 roni--thin crust that is good and doughy, sausage which tasted fresher than alot of the crap you get around the city. Cheese slice--3 roni--not as good as last time, but maybe that is because
last time I was hungover, dunno.
Alright, I can't give 'em a four because the pizza isn't four worthy. But they get a three and a half...and you have to try the pepperoni roll (they also have a spinach one, which I heard is good). Oh, and when you get it, ask for a side of ranch. Word.
