living in the glass city where you are bombarded by chain restaurants on everystreetcorner it can get quite frustrating trying to find a unique place that breaks the mold. the village idiot is that place and then some, with a fantastic jukebox, fun staff, off the wall decor, live music, stellar beer selection, great location in the heart of downtown maumee, etc. saying that, i must say that by far hands down the #1 reason i recommend and love this place is the pizza. the toppings are very genorous to say the least (see picture). i recommend taking your time and building your own pizza, with the bevy of toppings to choose from it can be overwhelming. i go with the hand sliced pepperoni (placed under the cheese), italian sausage and either bananna peppers, carmelized onions or garlic (this is me warning you the reader, that the garlic they place on your pie are the size of tater tots. you will feel this topping up to 36 hours after intake. color you warned). in closing, if your looking for a change of pace from the toledo area norm, check out the village idiot in downtown maumee.
