14 Best Pizza Restaurants in Crystal Lake

“Great pizza, quick friendly service in a nice Chicago themed restaurant.

We hadn't been to Georgio's in a while and decided to head there for pizza. The only reason we hadn't been here is that we have other options that are closer to home. Everything was so good that we will be making this trip more often.“

“We found you guys years ago: your our favorite spot: Just tried your cauliflower pizza Omg it was fantastic!!!!!“

“Pizza crust is freshly baked and you can absolutely tell this was made in a bakery. Best in the area. Also...crispiest chicken wings I’ve ever had and don’t even get me started on that tres leches cake...SO. DECADENT! Ordered here for my birthday and wasn’t disappointed!! Friendliest owners, too. Can’t wait to go back! #supportlocal“

“It was my first time ordering. I ordered when I walked in. It took about 15 minutes to cook. The pizza was made fresh. It was also cool to watch the owner making not only my pie but to others.
While the pizzas were in the oven, Cindy and I had an enjoyable conversation about food at other restaurants, which included chocolate cake and real strawberry milk shakes.
When I arrived home to enjoy my pie, I must say that it was one of the best that I have had in a while. It was worth the 30 minute drive.
Thank you Cindy! 😆 I will be back. 😀“

“This is our go-to place for gluten-free pizza. As opposed to another popular nearby pizza place, the crust is actually fully baked. The GF crust is decent. Not as good as real crust, but better than others in the area. As with any GF pizza, I’d recommend eating it all the first night, as it’s never as good reheated.“

“Always great service and excellent food! The pizza is the best!“

“I have been ordering from here for dinner where I work. We all aty work enjoy the pizza & appetizer. I ordered a Chicken Ceasar salad, a small BLT pizza & an Italian Beef with giardiniera with a side of adjustable. Well my coworker told me she only received 1 small Ceasar dressing for the salad (2 or 3 for the salad would have it nicely covered), Italian Beef was a fully disappointment. I would NEVER recommend that at all. The menu for the Italian Beef is NOT true at all. The menu says "NOW WITH MORE MEAT", well I received more giardiniera then meat. When I called she told me that it was 6ozs. of meat that all beefs get. I can tell you as a former line cook that packaged Italian Beef that what I received was NOT 6ozs since I packaged 7ozs of Italian Beef. I DO NOT recommend the Italian Beef at all. I was excited to get the be since all I heard was good things but when I received it and looked at the sandwich it was giardiniera with very little Italian Beef and I received 2 large containers of auju. I was really DISAPPOINTED on the sandwich and the answer that they gave me. If your menu says "NOW WITH MORE MEAT" 6ozs is not enough. It was a GIARDINIERA sandwich with Italian beef... Other pizza I will not order anything else. VERY DISAPPOINTED.... Pictures will be posted...“

“I am always very impressed with how clean, organized and maintained this location is!!! Thank you for giving us a very nice place to allow our children to have fun and be safe! Management should definitely applaud their employees for keeping this place top notch!“

“The same people are here every time I come (maybe I come to much lol) but absolutely an amazing environment and I’ve brought family/friend visitors here as well and they’ve loved it . Tommy’s everyday special is my go to ! Their polish sausages are also good .“

“Jude’s offers small plates perfect for sharing with friends. The food choices are plentiful and reflect different culinary choices so they offer things you can’t get elsewhere in CL. The environment is warm and welcoming. Staff provide service that makes sure the experience is a good one.“

“Great pizza! Great service!“

“Papa Saverio’s Pizza is some of the best pizza I ever had! I love getting their slices, they are big and delicious. I last visited on Sunday, August 31st, 2025 and did takeout slices. They only had pepperoni and sausage pizza by the time of day but It was still tasty and delicious and takeout service is the quickest takeout service I have ever experienced. They cater high school sports games in the area too at least, and I very much recommend! We make sure we stop in at least every once in a while! Especially with football now in season! (Written 9-10-25)“

“We went here last night for Singo and what a great time! There was about 40 people playing and it was soooo fun!!! The food here is OUTSTANDING! They have a limited menu of flatbreads and sliders! Don’t be fooled by the limited options. They offer all types of flatbreads and sliders! Delicious!!
The 2 girls that run this, Tara and Kenzie, are fantastic!!! These 2 did everything from cooking to bartending to serving! The service was top notch!

We will be back and make sure to try the meatball flatbed ?“

“I'm writing in regards to store # 2786. I met with your employee Jon K at 9:10pm on 7/9/2024 and he was an excellent employee. He explained things I was unsure of with ease and politeness and I appreciated his customer service above and beyond; especially after the day I had. It was extremely refreshing and he was a great employee.“
