Another great write-up, but I have to say that Happy Joe's is absolute trash. We have a Quad Cities-style pizza place in Chicago called Roots where I first had taco pizza and it is awesome - malty crust, high-quality sausage, crisp chips, etc. We stopped at Happy Joe's on a recent drive to Kansas City and were appalled by how bland and processed the pie tasted in comparison. The taco pizza is a great concept, but know there are much better versions out there than the one at Joe's. Also, their Italian buffet looked creepy as hell!

ahahaha. I used to work at many Italian-American restaurants and I do love a good (bad) Italian buffet if it's done right. Usually leftovers from a wedding party or something.
