Last three visits were just.....not good. I even took a five month before trying again today. Three visits in a row, didn't the order right. Today, one person orders a pizza and the other person orders a simple spaghetti and meatballs. First, my pizza arrives, while my guest is told her order isn't ready yet and will be ready in a few minutes. Spaghetti and meatballs? You don't have pasta, sauce, and meatballs ready to go?
Then I quickly realize my pizza has neither of the two toppings I asked for. So I have a cheese pizza.
This location has gone WAY downhill. Today is 10/25/25. I have had three screwed up orders in the past year. My pizza was undercooked. Could taste the raw dough. Then they give some excuse my a simple dish like spaghetti and meatballs can't come out on time.
What a joke. Server was great. I don't blame the server at all. Get it together over there. Three bad visits in a year. I won't be trying again.

Was excited to finally try this restaurant. Was planning on eating a beef and taking a pizza home. After seeing the food on other people's tables, I didn't want to order either. Went with a chili cheese dog because it's pretty hard to mess that up. I wish I would have taken a picture because it was the most unappealing food you would ever see. The main reason I am making this review is because they put beans in the chilli that goes on the dog, beans dont belong on a hot dog! There wasn't even any ground meat, just beans and sauce.

Ordered from Uber eats just before close but forgot a drink and some ranch. Called and ordered them separately and Mazie was sure to make sure they came together. Thankyou Mazie!
Just wanted to taste the garlic nots. Service and atmosphere were good but they charge $8 for only 3 garlic nots which were mediocre. Definitely not worth the $8. Haven’t tried their pizza but hopefully they give you more for your money and flavor when ordering pizza.

My host Stephanie gave me and my family of 5 exceptional service. She was very nice and welcoming. I would come again just because of her.

Since Fresca Pizza closed Sep 2025 and Dannie’s was stingy on ingredients last Aug 2025.
My new favorite pizza Sep 27, 2025 with thin crust and sweet savory sauce is “Joey D’s on W. Manatee in Bradenton.
I picked the “Ronnie D’s Favorite” it came with pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes and green peppers, I added jalapeños… The secret in my humble opinion is the crumbled sausage along with the fresh toppings. Sliced sausage should not be on pizza, that’s what pepperoni is for. Again, Fantastic pizza, cut horizontal and vertical, plenty of square pieces with lots of cheese and toppings creating cheesy crescent saucy shapes on corners:-)
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a tough critic, a few years ago. I dined in and they ran out of mushrooms and would bring them in from local grocer, we left… I still make sure they have mushrooms before I commit:-)

Amazing Chicago style food will keep coming back!
Haven't gone to joey ds for a while decided to try It out. Got a large pizza. It was decent the food wasn't the problem. The problem is the server was irresponsible didn't check the order and charged us for a different persons order with the same name.. so they Called us to tell us the transaction was messed up and was canceled. And they needed us to Pay. I'm sorry what.. that was on yall. You decided to not only cancel the payment but DEMAND PAYMENT WITHOUT APOLOGIZING. The total for ours was 30 and the total we got charge for was 28.. could someone explain to me why they didn't just deal with it.. the factor of when we spoke to the supervisor they didn't even apologize for the inconvenience. Or give anything to give encouragement for me to ever come back. So Before you get charged make sure u check everything bc obviously it's a bunch of millennials running the place
A great place for Chicago food and football. All the food was seasoned great, cooked fantastic, and tasted like I was up north in the city.
Service was great, friendly staff, and very attentive.
Definitely worth the ride and will be back to watch Da Bears!
