Was crazy crowded but found a seat the bar. I'm a fan of Neapolitan pizza so this was a different experience - I was surprised at how nice and crispy the crust was and the cheese and toppings or fillings were delicious, but just the ratio of dough to fillings with a little low for my personal taste. Also had a Caesar salad and the dressing was pretty heavy .

Service was exceptional for a busy, busy bar. It was just a little crazy and busy if you like that...

The food was absolutely delicious! They are popular so it was a nice wait! It was worth the wait and the waiter's customer service was top-tier! The salad came out late and was close to when the pizza arrived. He offered a solution as he realized what occurred. That is the experience and appreciation I can admire! Many are concern with the bottom line. However, awesome customer service keeps folks coming back! I would definitely return in the event I visit Chicago again!...

Great food, surprisingly their salad was to die for. Their beer was fine and their pizza was delicious as expected. Will bring my family and friends here when they come by Chicago in the future. Wait time for a table and for them to cook the pizza is very long so patience is necessary. 90 min wait for a table and 45 more for the pizza.
