I'm pretty conflicted with this place because other reviews are both good and bad. First off, the pizza. We got the Chicago pizza, and while it tasted great and the quality of ingredients was perfect, it was at the same time disgusting. It's a 3lb pizza, but 2.5lbs are cheese. An ungodly amount of cheese. All you could taste was cheese. I can't speak for other style pizzas, but Jesus, I might have an artery blockage after that. The service was decently fast. The gentleman at the counter was super nice and gave the full run down of the menu and ordering process. It's definitely on the expensive side. Toppings are $2 each and you barely get anything. I guess quality makes up for it?The atmosphere is cozy and cute. It's clean and updated. A nice ambiance when it's not overly crowded. I'd try other pizzas just won't ever be getting the chicago style again.

Neighborhood pizza shop convenient to Lincoln Park. This place is pretty cute and offers a ton of different pizza varieties- from NY style to Chicago and Detroit. Everything I have had there was delicious but I do wish that they offered pizza other than the "grandma style" by the slice, had your hometown Italian restaurant salad, and served alcohol. We generally take out, but you can also dine in.

Have had takeout pizza here several times since they opened, but I would probably order more often if the price wasn't so steep. The lack of quantity is made up for with the great taste of the ingredients, the quality of their dough, and the order always being ready at the time stated. A nice plus is having more than one of pizza style to choose from, so definitely try a couple of different crust options if you decide to order more than one pizza.

Great neighborhood spot. Amazing pizza and it feels like a nostalgic pizzeria. They have all types of pizza, so you can't go wrong here. Friendly staff. It's def worth trying.

I went with a friend early and was able to get a seat! It's great pizza and service. The owner greeted us when we walked in. My friend suggested we grab a slice. We shared the nonna with 3 toppings. The pizza is varied and you have options. It's not cheap but you pay for quality. With four different crusts options available, we tried the nonna with olive, spinach, and bell pepper. The dough had a bit more texture -- it's def on the thicker side. It's a smaller location. If you're looking to grab a slice and eat inside, be sure to get there early. Otherwise, take out's also moving pretty quickly too. They're pushing pies out the door at a rapid pace. Get yourself one!

Short staffed, ordered up front, but food was great! Caesar salad and Nona pizza were delicious!

Listen... I challenged Jersey Joey to make a pie that made me feel like I was back home in Chicago (West Loop)... he delivered.The mozza is rich, good chew, and melts off the slice. Sauce and cheese are layered well & the crust has a nice bite to it, not too doughy and not dry and tough. The cornmeal on the back did its job as a compliment to the texture and not a messy distraction. That sauce isn't the canned junk it's WELL SEASONED. Not spicy but has the right balance of spices and garlic.A little up there in price... but I attribute that to the zip code more than the ownership. I'll be back brotha.

Wow, just found my new favorite pizza place in DC.Joey is the owner, chef, and sometimes waiter. Great to chat. Love his laid-back philosophy, wish them all the best for this great neighborhood addition.Amazing. You've got four choices, NY, Detroit, Chicago, and Nonna (thick sliced from Long Island, NY?). They offer Nonna by the slice too. For my first trip, I tried the NY pizza. It was big with great flavors, tasty crust, and flavorful ingredients. I'll be back soon for Chicago!I'm told breakfast leads with (amazing) waffles, pastries, and other baked goods. Closed on Mondays and daily 2-5pm.In the first 5 minutes, I heard two reviews from customers walking out, "best pizza we've ever had" and "Amazing, you transported me back to Detroit!"If you like or want a pizza tonight, go here!
