We’ve been craving a Tortugas Chicago style, carne, add mushrooms and fresh garlic. Our pizza was one of the best ones we’ve had in a long time. It was so worth the hour and 15 minute, bad traffic, drive home from work to go by and pick one up.

How do you give 10 stars? Hands down the best deep dish pizza I have ever had. Had lunch with a friend here and had a slice of the Carne special….a single slice is a whole meal. Easy parking, nice staff, great service, go for the deep dish, it’s just amazing!

Some of the best pizza I’ve ever had. Highly recommend the Chicago style. We had never been before and were from out of town and so owner came out and spoke to us, told us about their different specialties, such a super nice guy. It’s a local staple for sure!

Just not great.The crust isn't corn meal. How is this a Chicago deep dish?The box was very very wet. Like a puddle. Probably the tomatoes they opted for on the vegetarian. Not a great decision. Everything was soggy.I've found 2 olive pits in the quarter of the pizza I ate. Get a new olive supplier.There is a crazy lack of cheese for Chicago style.Overall, a disappointment. Every city needs a giordanos.

I would give it no stars if I could. Serive sucks! Never keeps hours and constantly closes early turning people away.

Absolutely amazing place plenty of seating and the atmosphere is very calming. Yes there is a wait for pizza but that is how it should be made fresh. The prices are unbelievably cheap and the food is incredible!Kid-friendliness: A very child friendly in ironing plenty of things on the walls for children to look at and learn about history

Staff was very friendly. The Chicago style pizza is accomplished by lots of Chicago sports memorabilia. The pizza was great! Best deep dish I've had outside of Chicago!Parking: It's a strip mall. Parking is not a problem.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly as long as you're kid loves sports.Wheelchair accessibility: Seems to me like a wheelchair would get in and out of there just fine.

This was a super delicious pizza. Was mildly inconvenienced that there was no dining in. But we took it back to our hotel. The pizza was well worth the inconvenience. I highly recommend eating here. Heads up...plan for a min of 40 min wait for them to make a deep dish pizza.

Paid a visit with friends that are regulars. The service was awesome. Never having tried Chicago Style deep dish / this was my chance. Well, while it wasn't bad in anyway - it was just a bit overwhelming for me. We had 2 other run of the mill pizzas on the table, they were great. While I wasn't quite sold on the Chicago Style, I would definitely go again and just stick with the familiar.
