Catching up on Yelp reviews in 2024. I have been multiple times, but the last time I visited was on St. Patrick's Day weekend. Proper Pizza is a quick bit spot and a drunk food spot catering to college students near DePaul as it's open late until 2am on weekends. I haven't ordered a full pie and have only done slices. Crust: 7Cheese: 8Sauce: 4Toppings: N/AOverall: 6.33One thing that distinguishes Proper Pizza is the crust as is has sesame seeds on it. Definitely different. Cheese is the best part of the pie as it's very gooey and flavorful. Crust has decent flop. Sauce to cheese ratio is off as it needs more sauce. Proper Pizza has decent pizza and is a great bang for your buck. A giant slice and drink was like $7 so it's a solid deal. I think the pizza is mid at best, but that's ok. It's definitely tailored to the students of DePaul and late night drunk food, which is a solid business plan. Stop by Proper Pizza if you are looking for a late night slice!

It's a unique flavor profile which I like.The cheese and sauce are very good and if you like sesame seeds the crust will work for you. There were a few not proper aspects though. Definitely stingy on the topping at least on mine. Also the prices are definitely higher than they should be.

Delicious pizza! Really good thin slices with the perfect amount of sauce and cheese. I ordered 2 slices (which are huge by the way) and it turns out each slice comes with a drink too! (Coke, Diet Coke, sprite, bottled water). I took my pizza to go and they offered me Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes also. For individual slices they had cheese, pepperoni, and sausage, and their full pizzas are made to order. I got a cheese slice and a pepperoni slice (2 huge slices were about $15). Would love to come back and try some of the more unique pizza flavors because I really liked what I got! The sesame seeds on the crust were a nice unique touch. The space is surprisingly big, open, bright, and clean with plenty of tables for eating in. It wasn't crowded, but the service was good and my pizza was prepared quickly!

Absolute trash pizza. Terribly underrated overpriced and no flavor whatsoever. Highly disappointed

You can get a giant slice of pizza and a drink at an affordable price. They're open late and have a few different pizza options. Very cheesy, thin crust, and delicious!

Can't say this is the world's 'best' pizza but you know, it's a terrific pizza. Saw it a few weeks ago and kept wanting to try it out and FINALLY DID.First off, one of the few places in the US that offers 'corn' as a topping. Yeah yeah, I've been told 'we don't put corn on pizza.' Try it out; you don't know what you're missing. I had the pepperoni, sausage and veggie.Loved the pepperoni and not sure why I took the sausage (don't care much for sausage on my pizza). The vegetarian was fantastic but could use some more vegetables on it. There is a wonderful 'chew' to the pizza. As I ate the first slice, I was excited to get to the crust; never seen sesame seeds on a pizza. Damn this works and it works well. The space inside was really cool. Clean, seemed to have been renovated for this new place and the owner Tony was super friendly. This pizza joint originated in Kosovo (Tony, forgive me if I'm wrong) and they have some 50+ locations in that area of the world.Can't wait to custom order a pizza soon.

Absolutely amazing food and even better service. My buddy and I came here 10 minutes before closing on a Thursday night after Lolla Palooza day 1 hoping to get two slices of pizza. Unfortunately they only had one left. The owner (I'm assuming) felt bad and gave us the slice for free along with two waters. The pizza was so amazing we decided to come back the next night after day 2 of the festival. We ordered a whole pizza and garlic bread and dined in, the owner recognized us. He gave us two free sodas and even gave us his phone charger for us to use and we didn't even ask! It's safe to say the service here is a 10/10 and the pizza is absolutely incredible.

This ain't Dominos. If you like thin (but tasty) crust, this is great. The sesame seeds add a unique flavor. The cheese and toppings are high quality. Yes it's a few bucks more, but aren't you worth it?
