Bacino's Italian Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (60)

"I'm back- the Manzo is still excellent but so is the spicy chicken panini. I ordered first, squeezed in a few golf balls at the range and came back. That's why I didn't complain about the wait this time."

Pizzeria Serio

★★★★☆ 4 (445) • $$

"I ordered takeout out from Pizzeria Serio. They make some serio pizza but with a smile. The ordering process was easy, and the pizza was ready before their promised time. I ordered a Margherita Pizza, and customized my own pizza with Soppressata and had them drizzle some Hot Honey on the pizza. Both pizzas were really delicious, but I really did enjoy eating my custom Hot Honey & Soppressata pizza. The Margherita pizza was good but nothing special. The only good I would have preferred on both is a little more char on the crust. Overall very satisfied."

Nonna's Pizza & Sandwiches

★★★★☆ 4.2 (243) • $$

"Pretty busy spot for lunch on the weekday but got here just before the crowd. It took a long while to get our two sandwiches which they need to improved as most corporate people getting food have a limited amount of time for lunch. There's not much room to sit inside but there is a cute little outdoor area off the sidewalk we were able to enjoy. My idea before coming to this spot was Italian deli but it's funny because I don't really think of the two things we got as Italian- crispy chicken sandwich and pastrami. Flavor was good because we enjoyed the sauces and slaw on the sandwiches but the pastrami was a little tough."

Gianna's Pizza

★★★★☆ 3.5 (86) • $$

"Every time I've eaten here is never disappointing. The food is always hot and good. I call ahead because sometimes it takes a while, especially on the weekends."

Celis Pizzeria

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (9)

"Good customer service, friendly neighborhood pizza better than nova in my opinion . Great prices and they deliver even if I'm 4 blocks away."

Villa Rosa Pizza

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (140) • $$

"Villa Rosa Pizza is a hidden gem that never fails to delight pizza enthusiasts. On my recent visit, I decided to indulge in a classic slice of pepperoni pizza, and it was nothing short of perfection. The moment my slice was handed to me, I was struck by the aroma of freshly baked dough and savory pepperoni. The crust, thin yet sturdy, boasted a golden-brown hue that promised a satisfying crunch with every bite. As I took my first bite, I was greeted by a symphony of flavors that danced across my palate. The crust, expertly crafted and baked to perfection, provided the ideal canvas for the star of the show: the pepperoni. Each slice of this spicy, savory delight was generously adorned with perfectly seasoned pepperoni slices. Their rich, smoky flavor mingled with the tangy tomato sauce and melted mozzarella cheese, creating a taste sensation that was simply irresistible. But what truly set Villa Rosa's pepperoni pizza apart was its The pepperoni, crisped to perfection along the edges, offered a satisfying crunch that gave way to a burst of spicy goodness with every bite. The cheese, melted to gooey perfection, provided the perfect contrast to the crispy crust and zesty sauce. With each bite, I found myself transported to a culinary paradise, where every flavor was perfectly balanced and every texture meticulously crafted. Villa Rosa Pizza has truly mastered the art of pizza-making, and their pepperoni pizza is a testament to their dedication to quality and flavor. If you're in the mood for a slice of pizza perfection, look no further than Villa Rosa Pizza. Whether you're a die-hard pizza lover or simply craving a taste of culinary excellence, Villa Rosa Pizza is sure to exceed your expectations."

Naudi Signature Pizza

★★★★★ 4.7 (85) • $$

"I'm here all the time as I live nearby. Naudi is a classic, unpretentious, and straightforward pizza place with an open-fired oven and kitchen and a quaint seating area inside. The list of toppings is small and compact, as it should be. The ingredients are high-quality. I love their classic cheese slice with the little dollops of ricotta. I wish there was more consistency with their slice offerings at different times of the day. I love grabbing a slice when I get off the train from work, and sometimes, they don't have any ready. Besides that minor inconvenience, Naudi gets a 4.8/5 (rounding up to 5) from me."

Luke's on Harlem

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (235)

"I had a cheese pizza and coke good for the price of 6 bucks lukes have been around for a while they have good service and the food is good too"

Danny's - Chicago

★★★★☆ 4 (216) • $$

"During my recent visit to Danny's Pizza Place, I had the pleasure of experiencing their culinary delights and let me tell you, it was a spicy pizza extravaganza that left me craving more! The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, with comfortable seating and a casual vibe. It was the perfect spot to enjoy a delicious meal with friends or family. The prices were reasonable, considering the quality and portion sizes, making it a fantastic value for the experience. I decided to go for their specialty, the spicy pepperoni thin crust pizza, and I was blown away by its incredible flavors. The thin crust was beautifully crispy, providing the ideal foundation for the mouthwatering toppings. Each bite was a burst of spicy goodness, with the pepperoni delivering a satisfying kick that tantalized my taste buds. The perfect amount of cheese and sauce complemented the flavors, creating a harmonious blend that kept me reaching for slice after slice. To accompany my pizza, I also ordered the loaded potato wedges, and they were an absolute game-changer. The wedges were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, topped generously with melted cheese, bacon bits, and a dollop of sour cream. The combination of flavors and textures was simply divine, making it a heavenly side dish that perfectly complemented the pizza. Danny's Pizza Place truly exceeded my expectations. It's a must-visit destination for pizza enthusiasts looking to satisfy their cravings for bold and flavorful combinations. If you're searching for a pizza haven that delivers on both taste and service, look no further than Danny's Pizza Place. Their spicy pepperoni thin crust pizza and loaded potato wedges are a match made in culinary heaven. I can't wait to return and indulge in their other enticing menu options!"

Marco's Beef

★★★★☆ 4 (117) • $

"We came here for a quick bite. I hate these beef places that have these slices of pizza on display. Because I only came for a beef and the damn slices look so good just staring at me. So I couldn't resist and ordered a sausage slice as well. This place gets pretty busy with a lot of pick up orders as well as grub hub and all that other crap. I waited longer than I would have liked to, but it really wasn't all that bad. I ordered my beef with hot peppers and dipped. The only way it should be ordered if I'm being honest..I'm only kidding. The beef was packed with flavor. Just the right amount of seasoning and they filled the bread up pretty well. The hot peppers were also perfect. Just the perfect amount and right amount of spice. One of the best needs served in the city. We also ordered cheese fries. They serve crinkle fries and then topped with the cheese. I prefer my cheese on the side so I can dip it but then again you get more cheese when they just pour it on top like how they did. The sausage pizza slice was pretty good, just not sure if I would order it again. We also ordered a hot dog but it wasn't all that great. The beef is where it's at here. I'll definitely be back."

Lena's Pizza

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (36)

"Cant attest for the rest of the food but the pizza is always good!! Never disappoints. Underrated for sure!"

Konak Pizza and Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (140)

"The nicest staff in a little late night restaurant/diver bar. We only came here late night for drinks but it was a great experience. Sat at the bar and were greeted. We had some light trash beers (ex-miller lite) and it was $17 without tip for three. A bit steep but isn't Chicago? The owner (I think) did make us a free shot when he learned it was my friends birthday. Then he helped me drink it when I asked cause I'm old. Appreciate that. Seriously great people. Inside is a bit run down but it feels safe and comfortable. Love the energy and would definitely go back."

Francesco's Hole In the Wall

★★★★☆ 4.2 (581) • $$

"This place not to be mistaken as the Francesca's chains. It's a stand-alone restaurant by a completely different owner. The food is deliciously addictive. It's a small place, I mean less than 40 tables (estimating). It's one room and they don't take reservations. The menu is on the wall and there is always a wait for a table so you'll have plenty of time to decide. If you don't see it on the menu, chances are high that they can make it for you! Now that's top notch service! The baked clams are SO FREAKING DELICIOUS! Seriously, not even exaggerating here. I could just have 4 dozen as my entree and still want more! Fried calamari always seems to taste better here than other restaurants, maybe it's what they season it with after being fried. Even if you don't have an appetizer, the warm and crusty bread that gets brought out is highly addictive! My husband loves their veal chop, it's tender and prepared perfectly. It's a large portion so depending on how hungry he is, it makes a good lunch the next day too! He's also a huge fan of their spicy seafood diavolo with linguine. They put in ample amounts of seafood like lobster, shrimp, scallops, clams, and salmon. The pasta and grilled bread is just the right thing to sop up all the very spicy sauce. My favorites are the osso bucco with risotto, the bucatini with lobster, crab and shrimp, and the black linguini with mussels, clams, and cherry tomatoes. The osso bucco is melt in your mouth delicious and there's nothing more sinful than digging out the marrow with a tiny shrimp fork to spread on a small piece of fresh bread. The black linguini is prepared just right with an ample amount of clams and mussels. There is a down side to the dish - the last few times the clams and mussels were not cleaned well so all the sand and grit really ruined the dining experience. The bucatini is just as delicious, but the last time I ordered it there was no lobster and they used fake crab (Gross!), and there was tiny broken pieces of salmon - it looked like someone's leftover meal and wasn't quite what I expected. It was rather disappointing since I wanted lobster and crab with pasta. They didn't let me know about the substitutions and NO quality restaurant should serve fake crab in place of real crab!I guess I'll stick to the osso bucco or something more consistent."

The Wolfhound Bar and Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.4 (55)

"I've eaten here many times now. The owner is Irish, a firefighter, musician and has a passion for food. Everything is made from scratch down the the ketchup. The chicken sandwich, full Irish (all day) breakfast, chicken strips & cheese curds are my favs. They have a brunch menu on the weekend with home baked Irish soda bread and other goodies. I can't say no to their mimosas! I've recently tried the soups which were generous in size and the perfect winter warmer. They have different soups on rotation. I've also tried their late night menu which has delicious pizzas, the best sliders and more. All the staff are super friendly especially Emily who makes a great margarita! It's fairly easy to get street parking nearby. They have a good schedule of weekly entertainment (live Irish trad sessions, quizzes, drinks & food specials and other events). I think it's a good neighborhood place and definitely worth a try."

Gallucci Pizzeria Napoletana

★★★★☆ 4.2 (195)

"Came here late on a Friday night around 9:00 pm (12/29/23) without a reservation and was seated immediately. Normally, I believe a reservation would have been needed but it was pretty slow. Nonetheless, I am happy we were able to be seated without issue. It was incredibly dark inside - this gives more intimate vibes rather than family style or dinner with coworkers after work. It is tight regarding space as the establishment is narrow but the bar in the back is a nice touch offering a large variety of top-shelf liquors. Our server spoke minimal English but was super knowledgeable about the menu and helped my friend and I pick our dish. We were happy there was only one price for the pizza but the size was incredibly small. Thankfully we only wanted a small snack but had we been hungrier, I just know we would have spent double if not triple the amount of money to be well-fed. The taste, flavor, crispiness of the crust was spot on. I highly enjoy a oven-cooked pizza from scratch. It gave authenticity to what they were presenting. I can stand to return just once more and try another pizza."

Parlor Pizza Bar - Wicker Park

★★★★☆ 3.5 (512) • $$

"I did an online order from takeout here. I was really surprised at house packed this place was when I went to pickup my pizza. Every table was full, but most importantly, the staff was friendly and the pizza was delicious. I ordered a Margherita pizza as well as their Sgt. Pepper pizza. Both were delicious and fairly priced. The Margherita came with your traditional tomato sauce, mozzarella, fresh basil and extra olive oil. Nothing else is needed on this classic pizza. The crust was perfectly charred and everything tasted fresh. The Sgt. Pepper obviously came with pepperoni, mozzarella di Bufala, and white truffle oil. Just the like the Margherita, the crust had a nice char and overall a very delicious pizza. Will definitely be coming back."

Pequod's Pizza

★★★★☆ 3.9 (8247) • $$

"This pizza is 6/5 stars and was my favorite thing I ate on my trip to Chicago!My friends that live here said this was the spot to get incredible deep dish. They were not joking! They take reservations, which is a huge plus. We started with the cheesy garlic bread and got a large pepperoni pizza to share. There were three of us and we had a few pieces left over, so great bang for your buck! The garlic bread app was super tasty and we were really hungry. The pizza though, was INCREDIBLE! The flavor of the tomato sauce was amazing and the crispy, cheesy crust was next level. I will be dreaming about this pizza forever! SO GOOD!"

Oh Boy Pizza

★★★★☆ 3.8 (70)

"This was my first time trying this restaurant and let me say I'm a big fan of bag pizza so they won me over already. They known for their sauce being on the sweeter side. The sweetness wasn't overwhelming. The pie was cooked perfectly. The only flaw was a lot of the middle piece were cut smaller than my liking and the crust is extra thin. Those things aside this is a solid pie and they have half off on Monday and Tuesday for their family and jumbo size pizzas. The taste also reminded me of a pizza place on 113th & Halsted called Joeys that I loved as a kid. This is good pizza!"

Eduardo's Enoteca

★★★★☆ 4.2 (490) • $$

"My luck finally ran out. 9 times of 10, food I order online is done before the promised time. I showed up about 10 minutes before the promised time and was still told it would be 20 more minutes. I ordered their Herb & Foccacia and two pizzas. The Herb & Focaccia was delicious. It came with olive oil to dip the bread but, overall a very simple flavorful dish. We went with their Margherita pizza and their Miele & Fig. I've definitely had better Margherita. It such a plan pizza that should be hard to mess up. My biggest issue was with the crust. It wasn't cooked long enough, it was more on the chewy side and not crispy enough. It was my first time trying Fig on a pizza. It was supposed to come with marinara sauce, honey goat cheese, mozzarella, dried figs, cayenne infused honey, arugula, although I mine was missing the arugula and I didn't see any honey or tasted anything cayenne on my pizza. Despite it missing those two key ingredients, the pizza was still damn delicious. It definitely changed my entire experience with this place. The goat cheese went perfect with the sweetness from the fig. The only thing it was missing was a kick from the cayenne infused honey. Will definitely be returning to try this pizza again."

Ranalli's of Andersonville

"Great place to relax, their pizza is fabulous and so is their homemade Gorgonzola cheese...It's such a cozy atmosphere and the best service !Reasonable prices, great place for families to gather"

Taza Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (173)

"I used to have lunch here when I worked in the plaza yearss ago and the food is as good as I remember! The veggies in the wrap tasted so fresh, pickles were on point and the lentil soup was so hot and delicious. It was a 35 min drive but worth it for my Friday lunch! Definitely recommend this place."

Pete's Pizza & Bakehouse

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (296) • $

"I ordered delivery from Pete's. Everything came well packaged in sealed foil containers and bags, which I appreciated. However, the food itself was not great. The cheese breadsticks were just Bosco sticks like the ones you'd find at a school cafeteria, and the cheese fries were a giant soggy blob of mess by the time they reached me because they put the sauce on top instead of on the side. It was more like eating mashed potatoes than french fries. Pretty underwhelmed overall."

Trattoria Oliverii

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (145) • $$

"If you're looking for a delicious meal in a welcoming atmosphere, look no further than this neighborhood Italian restaurant. Not only is the food amazing, but the ambiance is outstanding as well. The cozy interior and friendly staff make it the perfect spot to enjoy a meal with friends or family.But that's not all - during the summer months, you can also enjoy live music at this establishment. It adds an extra layer of charm and entertainment to your dining experience. One of my favorite spots in the North Shore!"

Eataly Chicago

★★★★☆ 3.9 (4447) • $$

"Another beautiful experience at Eataly! I signed up for the hands-on Neapolitan Pizza making class. It was great! We were greeted with a nice glass of Prosecco and escorted to a beautiful table. There were twelve of us and we were all first timers. Our host was funny, friendly and patient. The dough took the longest to prepare. When we were done playing around with it, it was wrapped in plastic and boxed up. It takes twenty-four hours for a good Italian dough to proof. Thankful and grateful for the restaurant having enough dough prepared for us to each make our own pizza. Of course, we had to shape it, stretch it and top it. I was getting hangry but the second glass of Prosecco helped. Besides, it only takes 90 seconds for the pizza to finish in the 900 degree oven. So much fun!!!"

Vinny's Pizza Bar

★★★★☆ 3.8 (30)

"My new favorite after work spot. The staff is friendly, the beer selection is good (light on the number of draft choices but all very solid selections for a variety of tastes), and the place smells like the delicious pizzas they make.Has more of a neighborhood bar feel (which I prefer) with red vinyl stools, a wooden bar top, great music and there are 7 TVs to catch any game you want."

Bar Cargo

★★★★☆ 4.3 (289) • $$

"I've been wanting to try the pizzas here, and coming for brunch was a great opportunity to do so while taking advantage of bottomless mimosas (OJ on the side!). It's a great casual spot for day drinking, with plenty of TVs to watch sports as well. Though service at first was pretty slow, the champagne bottles were refilled pretty frequently which was nice. I loved the option to split any size pizza in two different flavors, so we did just that. I shared the small pizza - half buffalo bill and half popeye. The popeye was delicious, but the buffalo bill was a little too salty for my taste. We also shared the chopped salad, and this wasn't so great either. I do think this place has great potential and was fun for a casual group outing - I just needed to try different menu items I'm sure."

Vito & Nick's II Pizzeria

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (111) • $$

"Came across Vito and Nick's II Pizzeria cause we were in the area and love thin crust pizza. I know the original location was also on Guy Fieri's show Diner's & Drive-Ins back in 2016 and has good Google reviews. We got a 12 inch cheese with various different veggies to go. Requested pizza to be well done. Pizza was nice & hot and put together well. But as a lover of thin crust pizza, I can't say this hit the spot for me. Pizza was good but not out of this world good! I can say there is a place that does it better and it's because of their crust."

Pizano's Pizza & Pasta

★★☆☆☆ 2.2 (121) • $$

"This is our favorite pizza place for ordering. They make it easy to order and send a link to track the order. But most impossible the pizza. We usually order the pepperoni deep dish and sometimes build a thin crust veggie. Their pizza is all about the crust. Tasty and crunchy! I have to watch out for our daughter who likes to cut off the crust for herself!"

Bonci

★★★★★ 4.6 (36)

"The first time I tried Bonci was during covid at one of their other locations. Instantly fell in love and unfortunately haven't been back since. I like to try new places every time, so it hard for me to repeat. But I'm really glad they opened up this location on the north side. It's such a convenient location. The staff here was great as well. They're all assigned to specific stations and have a nice quick flow going. Most importantly the pizza is just as delicious as I remember. The guy in front of me took just about all they had though. Luckily there was still some decent stuff to choose from. I ended up ordering their Cacio Pepe, Burrata & Basil, lemon ricotta zucchini, margarita and pepperoni. My favorites were the Burrata & basil and their pepperoni. My least favorites were the cacio Pepe and their margarita. I like basil and olive oil on my margarita. This one tasted like a plain cheese pizza. The cacio Pepe had onions underneath the cheese, and I hate onions on my pizza. The pepperoni was delicious. It was covered with pepperoni. It was a little spicy and the crust was perfect. The Burrata and basil was so flavorful. I didn't have my pizzas heater before I took them home which melted the Burrata away. Next time I come in I will tell them not to heat the Burrata & basil pizza. I will for sure not wait another two years before returning here. You will definitely see me coming more often. Hopefully they have other options to choose from."

The Slice Hut

★★★★★ 4.7 (12)

"Stopped by as we were walking around the neighborhood. There's meter parking right outside of the store which was convenient. My kid wanted a cheese pizza and ice cream. There were only a few small tables to eat but it seems like they are expanding to a larger area in the back. It was clean inside and the staff were fairly friendly. The slice hut had a variety of pizzas which were reasonably priced and plenty of vegetarian options. You could order by the slice or a full pie. The ice cream scoops were delicious and a huge hit with the kids - i recommend the cheesecake ice cream which had small chunks of cheesecake yum! We will be back soon!"

Leona's Pizzeria - Old Irving

★★★★☆ 3.7 (36) • $$

"When I was literally a kid growing up in Chicago, this is where my parents always ordered their pizza from! We are going back a lot of years! Lol.The pizza at Leona's has never left my memory. So as long as I can review on Yelp, I'm going to be remembering places from my long gone past that I couldn't have Yelped since Leona's pre-dates that! So bear with my childhood memories!The square-cut Chicago-style pizza pieces at Leona's are the perfect size for a small person's hand, and folding the piece makes a tidy couple of bites. The perfect pizza here contains sweet-ish red pizza sauce, savory chunk sausage with tiny flecks of fennel throughout, creamy melty mozzarella, and Italian spices such as a sprinkling of oregano. What more can your family dream of when it comes to tasty pizza. Suffice it to say: The reason they are still in business after alll these years is because they have the BEST CHICAGO PIZZA and people stilll notice their consistency!If you are ever visiting or live in Chicago and you are near the Irving Park/Wrigleyville area, give Leona's a try. I promise you your tummy will be pleased."

Gino's East - Magnificent Mile

★★★★☆ 3.7 (2967) • $$

"Not just the best pizza in Chicago, not just the best deep dish pizza, but the best pizza EVER! This is always a must visit during any trip to Chicago. Pro Tip: Grab a seat at the bar for quicker service. And if Andrew is working, you're in luck!"

D'Agostino's Pizza & Pub

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (584) • $$

"Love Love Loveeeeee D'Auostino's Pizza! It is definitely on my top 3 list. I always get takeout, but I happen to be over near Wrigleyville and stopped inside didn't realizing it was D'Augustino's pizza. What a pleasant surprise, had a few drinks, and the bartender was amazing. Super nice and easy to talk to. I can tell there were a lot of regulars, and a few birthday parties going on in a separate room. I definitely recommend! I have tried most of their menu and I usually get a nice Delux that I customize. Great garlic bread, Italian Beef sandwiches and well... you get it. Love the crust and the amount of sauce is perfect Bon Appetite!!"

Alex's Washington Gardens

★★★★☆ 4.1 (182) • $$

"Alex's Washington Gardens is kind of like walking into your grandmother's house that she's raised all of her now grown children in. It's nothing fancy or updated. Kind of smells a little old timey. The lights are so dim you can barely read your menu. But it's oddly homey, warm and inviting. The dining room was PACKED when we arrived late on a Monday evening, but they were able to seat all 5 of us almost immediately without a reservation (we had a last minute change of plans, or we would have called ahead). Our waitress was a little short with us, which I didn't appreciate, but can also ignore, but it definitely rubbed one of my friends the wrong way. I'm not a huge fan of Italian food, so I played it safe with their chopped salad, which I enjoyed. I always appreciate a restaurant that has a solid salad list instead of offering basic iceberg with 4 tomatoes and some shredded carrots. Everyone else seemed to really enjoy their gnocchi, salads and ravioli. If you like a good, strong martini that'll grow some hair on your chest, look no further! I don't drink often, so I was definitely not able to finish my dirty martini, even after getting a little extra olive juice, bummer, because this place is NOT cheap. With the salad, martini and tip, my total bill was a little over $40.I do want to note that we did pretty much close out the place, and as we were exiting, there were two pretty intoxicated middle aged women by the bar showing each other dance moves or something. It definitely changed the entire vibe of the place, and made me a little uncomfortable. Not too sure if I'd ever bring my daughter here since it was pretty clear that people are easily over served. So to sum things up: the food is great, the atmosphere is like being at your grandmother's until after 8pm, when all of your crazy aunts have had too many gin and tonics, the service is good, but served with an attitude, but you'll be entertained and leave with your belly full."
