Bacino's of Lincoln Park

Holy cow! This was the best deep dish I’ve ever had! We walked here from Lincoln Park and arrived in between lunch and dinner, fortunate for us! We had a lovely chat with the owner and enjoyed delicious food. This was a perfect afternoon treat!

Bacino's Deep Dish Pizza in Chicago is a true standout! It's easily one of the best deep-dish pizzas I've ever had. The crust is perfectly baked—crispy outside and soft inside—while the gooey cheese and fresh toppings create a delightful flavor balance. The rich tomato sauce ties it all together beautifully.

Compared to other popular spots in the city, Bacino's offers an authentic experience without the crowds. If you’re craving deep-dish pizza, make sure to check out Bacino's—it’s a must-try!

This is the best deep dish pizza in Chicago in my opinion. I have been eating here since 1992 and they are still number one for me.

Great restaurant with reasonable prices. We started with an Order of garlic bread with cheese and the Garden Salad. We ordered a large Bacino’s Special Stuffed Pizza, expect a 35 to 40 minute wait, a great homemade stuffed pizza is well worth the wait!! The stuffed pizza sauce.was amazing! Our waitress was nice and service was great! They have 10+ types of popular beer choices, and a few wine choices. This a small wonderful mom and pop business. Come one, come all!

In 1997 my son David had his first Brain Surgery, at Children’s Hospital across the street. Very trying times for my Wife and I. If I remember correctly after being in the Hospital every day and every night for 5 days, our awesome Nurse, told us to get out for a hour or two. We took her advice and came into your restaurant. I will never forget it. It was the best Pizza, and staff we have ever had . Just so you know, my son David is now 36 years old, and his wife Amber just had a baby, on July 30th. Our first grandchild. Pretty Amazing, considering his life expectancy was 3-1/2 years. Life is Good and your pizza is amazing . Thank You for being there.❤️👍❤️

The food was amazing. The Tuscan Style Bruschetta was so delicious. I dont normally eat tomatoes like that and I had a taste of this appetizer and it was delicious! Had to come back again for it! A definite stop when in Chicago. Also tried the Rigatoni and it did not disappoint!

Quality has gone down in the past few years. Good is decent but the cheesy tastes a bit fake and after a slice or so hard to eat more.

We first heard about Bacino’s from a young man from Chicago who was teaching English in Taipei, our hometown. When he found out we were planning a trip to Chicago, he insisted that we had to try Bacino’s pizza.

So here we are.

We were blown away by the stuffed pizza. We tried the Spinach Supreme and Bacino’s Special—both were generously portioned and absolutely delicious.

We had the pleasure of chatting with John, the gentleman who served us, who turned out to be the owner. He was very hospitable and welcoming. John gave us great recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed. To our surprise, just before we left, he gifted us two Bacino’s T-shirts as souvenirs.

It’s easy to find a restaurant with nice food in a big city like Chicago, but it’s not easy to find one with such a human touch like Bacino’s.

We definitely plan to come back to Chicago—for the tasty pizza and for John.
