“It's truly a crime that this place doesn't have more reviews. This is one of the best pizzas I've ever had in my life.The sourdough is splendid, giving the crust a beautiful balance between soft and crunchy. The sauce is out of this world, I wish they sold jars of it so I could eat it more often. Every topping is incredibly flavorful and fresh. My favorites were the ricotta, cherry tomatoes, beef meatballs, and spinach.Make sure to preorder at least a day before you plan to go, since they make a limited amount of pizzas. Do yourself a favor and order the larger size, that way you can enjoy leftovers once you're back home and dreaming about the pizza! I can't wait to come back here again soon!“
“I absolutely loved visiting! Pizza was amazing and the hospitality was unmatched! We tried slices of so many different varieties and couldn’t decide on our favorite! The salad and asparagus were so refreshing and brought the perfect balance to our meal. I can’t wait to come back!! If you are anywhere near Evanston you need to stop by, and if not you need to add this to your travel list!“
“A solid pizza that's worth adding to your rotation. We got a deep dish pepperoni for takeout, so I can't speak to the interior. But the sauce and pepperoni were fantastic. Basically the same thing as Pequod's. The big difference is the crust. While Pequod's crust is very airy and crunchy, Burt's crust has less rise. I really liked it, but it was probably thicker than it needed to be. It loses one star because the carmelized crust was straight-up burnt. I love Pequod's outer ring of crispy cheese, Burt's edges were charred to tastelessness. I was bummed about that. Still, Burt's was a tasty treat. It's great to have another standout option in the Chicago area pizza pantheon!“
“When I visited Zimis pizza and grill, i was just trying a new lunch spot and i ordered the grandmas pizza and i also tried the traditional qevapis. Very good pizza, and also the qebapis were to die for. the service was great. the enviroment was very classy, and upscale. i would definitely reccomend zimis to any one looking for good food.“
“These guys nailed the Indian-fusion food! Simple but excellent adaptations of classic favourites from Indian, Korean, American, Mexican, Italian cuisines (and then some!)We tried the vada pav (Indian burger with stuffed fried potato patty, spices etc) tacos samosa and chicken tikka were both delicious! Momos (potstickers), thin crust pizza, and samosa chaat (smashed samosas with chickpeas, chutneys, onions etc)Pleasantly surprised every dish done just perfectly with its own twist on the original. And lovely presentation.They have an ice cream station (not to be missed!)The place is casual, perky and fun… Absolutely try this place out.“
“Came in again to try out their pizza special. I got the 2 slices and a drink last time, and it was too much for me. Just got a slice of sausage, and my usual soda can. Place is usually nice and clean. Everyone is friendly and acknowledges you when you walk in. It was cooked nicely and great crust. It wasn't too hard or soft, but just the right amount of crunch. The best part is that it's not really greasy like others. Big plus in my book. I definitely would come back if I'm in the area. Perks of working out in the field and trying new places.“
“My family member treated us to a dinner here. It was a Friday evening; it was crowded. He made reservations so we walked right in to our table. As we waited on our deep dish pizza, we ordered the sampler, calamari, traditional wings, regular fries, and garlic parm fries. I could not stop eating the garlic fries. By the time the pizza came, I was full but I managed to eat a slice. It was cheesy and good. I am currently missing this style of pizza. I will be back the next time that I visit here.“
“So good! Served up food for 5 people to go in about 20 minutes and every person was super happy with their food! Our favorite place in the neighborhood. Update: still the best place in the neighborhood. Update 2: still our fave, Burger of the week this week (2/8/24) was SO GOOD!“
“I ordered through Postmates recently, and the food is amazing, so I decided to come in today! The decor is so lovely and the service is great as well. I'm so glad I got to dine in. Their outside patio is cute, and they have lots of seating available inside/ out. It was pretty busy. I can't wait to come back and enjoy. New favorite place! Their vegetarian and vegan options are amazing.Vegetarian options: They can sub egg with vegan egg, they also have beyond sausage, non diary alternatives and more!“
“I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala pizza, and oh. my. goodness. It was love at first bite! The crust was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and the chicken was tender and juicy. And the cheese? Melted to perfection! ?And let's not forget the prices! So affordable and worth every penny. I'll definitely be back for more. ?In short, Halal Pizza Point is a must-visit for anyone looking for delicious, authentic halal pizza. Don't miss out! ? 5/5 stars ?"“
“(Northbrook Location) Extremely easy to place my order. The employee (Tony) I believe.. Who had taken my order 1/17/2024, was polite and detailed throughout the order process.. And when I arrived he continued to be Very Professional, Helpful & Welcoming to a new customer, “which he did not know I was”. This was our second time ordering, and were completely satisfied and everything came as ordered.. First time was a younger woman who took the order and she was friendly and easy to deal with as well.. I don’t recall her name (Sorry) or date I ordered. But it was about a week prior to my second order. Also shout out to the cooks and other employees who made this meal happen. A++ All Around.. so we thank you all. Including management who hired some great employees… We will definitely be ordering much more often.. Thanks Again to the Authority!! 5 Stars All Around..Steve @ Hawthorne Global“
“Our Veal Marsala was great. We both had the same thing. The portions were so large that we had a lot to take home, and we have enough for another dinner. We were celebrating my wife's Birthday and they provided a delicious Italian Lemon cake, ice cream with chocolate sauce. Most of all our server, Maria, was excellent. Her Birthday is today, the day after my wife's birthday. We will be back very soon!“
“Good spot... walking in.. it's really busy with a small bar and many tables surrounding/ exposed brick walls. Nice wine list with some good Italian bottles. Good menu with half a dozen apps, homemade pasta dishes & entrees! They also had an excellent *Specials Menu* she said. Started with a couple of glasses of Barbera and some baked clams with the bread of course. Great wine & clams were on the smaller side with an excellent sauce! They are known for their homemade pasta and I decided to try the special. This was a Jalapeño Gnocchi in a Vodka Cream sauce with Corn, etc... it was excellent, cooked perfectly! For dessert we had the Molten Chocolate Cake which was also very good & great ice cream. Waitress was very good & prices are a bit above average but worth it/ you can taste the quality ingredients for sure! Close it out with some Limoncello Shots// talk later“
“I couldn't have picked a better place for my first official Chicago pizza experience - though unassuming at first glance, the food hit all the right notes. My pizza had a perfect thin crust that wasn't tough or too hard, but could still stand up to the toppings. Both the cheese and sausage had great flavor, and neither was greasy. The pizza had just the right amount of sauce, and wasn't too acidic. The slices were large but surprisingly light. While I can't eat beef, I tried a bit of the bread, peppers, and giardiniera from the Italian beef sandwich and it was all delicious. The prices were very reasonable and everything came out super quick. Apart from the food, what really made Gigio's stand out to me was the staff. This is a true community restaurant - they actually know and care about their customers. They remembered my dad even after 30+ years, both Vito and Mama Nitti came out to chat with us and ask about how our family was doing. They even remembered how my grandfather used to order his pizzas back when they lived in the neighborhood. If you're looking for a mom and pop restaurant with delicious pizza and a great local feel, Gigio's is the place for you!“
“Incredible food with very handsome cash register workers. 10/10 would go again! Growing up in Italy I can say they have the best Italian food I've had since moving to the Americas. Hopefully their business continues to thrive and become more and more recognized.“
“Bar none, the best pizza in Chicago. On top of the amazing pizza, the service is some of the best around. In a world where customers have been left out to dry, JB Alberto's staff really ramps it up and goes above and beyond. Thank you so much for the amazing experience.“
“Panino's Pizzeria was, frankly, a very pleasant surprise. We agreed to meet friends here - they had recommended it. It looked like so many run-of-the-mill pizza/Italian food joints in the Chicago area, that we weren't expecting much. Boy, were we wrong. This is NOT nouvelle cuisine Italian-style, but rather stereotypical, Italian-American food that is hearty and quite tasty. Gratis bread to start the meal, followed by pork meatballs in red sauce and burrata. My wife had the lasagna - very nice portion, and I had the pork chops with broccoli. The wait staff (Fred) was bend over backwards accommodating us. The fried dough with chocolate was amazing. The prices are moderate. And none of us had pizza! We're certain to return to try some (they serve several styles). Huge thumbs up!“
“If you love Indian Food and Pizza you come to the right place. Amazing Traditional Fresh Flavors. You will have a hard time to choose your toppings and sauce. Each flavor is very different. Also topping choices are amazing. From being just vegetarian to adding halal chicken. Then also mango, pineapple, cashews, and so much move. Crust is very nice and artisan with great spices. I loved the Korma and Saag was incredible.Kenny and the staff are very friendlyIt's a little different going into a Beverage Depot to eat. Love the Bollywood Videos and MusicI would love to see more locations open that are nice restaurants with a fun Bollywood Traditional environment.Keep it up look forward to your growthNow go make me a lamb and korma pizza lolSeva Jaijeet SinghVegetarian options: Halal and Many Vegetarian OptionsParking: Ton of parkingWheelchair accessibility: No steps and electric sliding door“
“Shoutout to my favorite restaurant Tel Aviv Kosher Pizza!This is a must if you’re in Chicago! Going down memory lane. Tel-Aviv Kosher Pizza has been around and in the same location at least since my Dad was in Brisk Yeshiva going back to 1975. I grew up eating here 3-4 times a week. Ordered Pizza, Pizza Puff, French Fries with real cheddar cheese (something you don’t find in most restaurants) and Beer Battered Onion Rings. Same consistent amazing taste! Thank you! #onebite #TelAvivPizzaChicago“
“I love Pequod's so when I heard we had a place on the North Shore that was similar I was definitely intrigued. But also definitely skeptical. It's a small joint with zero atmosphere so it didn't look promising. But man oh man, the crust does not lie. Another reviewer called out the sausage and I have to agree. That might have been the best sausage deep dish that I've ever had. I almost wish my stomach were bigger so that I could have had a third slice. I can't wait for summer so I can truly enjoy a pizza on the sidewalk, something you could never do at Pequod's.“
“I have lived by here for over 10 years and never realized this was a pizza place ? needless to say I've been missing out! I went during a super busy March Madness day and ordered to go because it was packed. The service was great I got my pizza fast. I didn't know it was thin crust but I didn't care it was so good. The side salad too was so good. I can't wait to eat here again, it was great. I took one bite and couldn't stop to take a pic, we inhaled it.Parking: You have to find street parking and read the signs, don't even think of parking at Walgreens they towKid-friendliness: Loud and definitely kid friendly sports environment“
“Nice atmosphere; good pizzas with decent vegan options! Great restaurant to enjoy before seeing a show at SPACE. Delicious cocktails too!Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options; fewer vegan options but there are some.Dietary restrictions: Have gluten free crust too.“
“My nephew is friends with the owner and loves their food and wanted me to try it and I have to say I was very impressed. The chicken Parmesan was top-notch and the garlic rolls with the garlic inside delicious and prices that you can’t beat!“
“My goodness what a sweet gem of a place. Off the beaten path and I would’ve never gone here if it wasn’t for an event. They accommodated our group of 12 and were so attentive. We ordered most everything on the menu including bolognese, carbonara, all sorts of salads, crispiest fries, a couple of pizzas. Everything was solid and as hoped. The service was outstanding. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, very casual. Most people dinning appeared to be regulars there and we could see why. If you’re in the area, definitely give this place a try.“
“I got a Philly cheesesteak sandwich from Eastern Pizza last night and boy! Was it Delicious. New standard. I’m a customer for life and I want another one right now!Perfect amount of meat very toasted garlic bread and right amount of toppings“
“Great bar! Like a REAL bar, where you can grab a beer and a shot, talk Chicago sports and neighborhood with Regulars, helmed by a great bartender, Ken. Bonus Points... having an incredible name (Bringer Inn, love that) and being right next door to, arguably, Chicago's BEST Deep Dish pizza.“
“I am writing this review from a personal and professional standpoint, as I have hosted a few work events at 28-Mile over the past year, and recently had my son's Bar Mitzvah party there. As a former event planner, and someone who plans numerous events for my job, I can honestly say that I have never encountered a more professional and accommodating staff. From the ownership, to the management, to the bar & waitstaff, and I have to mention the woman who tirelessly maintains the cleanliness of the venue, each and every one of them go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly for your event. Both of the recent events I hosted had elaborate set-ups, and the entire staff (even the owner!) helped make sure the space looked the best it possibly could.From my initial meetings with Mike the manager, to the walk thru/layout details of the space, and menu discussions, Mike gave me his undivided attention and great suggestions as to what would work best. He promptly answered any questions I had, and leading up to my events he could not have been more responsive, flexible and accommodating. This is not a venue that just wants your money, they truly care about their customers and strive to make sure that from start to finish everything goes well. From the laborious set-up to breakdown for both of my events they could not have been more helpful!We also got so many compliments on the food from our guests, their pizza is definitely some of the best on the North Shore! The bar staff is amazing and so efficient. Not only do they make awesome cocktails (their butterscotch bourbon was a crowd favorite), you also feel their genuine commitment to making sure that the event is a success. No matter what my request was of the management, or the bar or waitstaff, they made it happen with a smile on their faces. If a scenario is possible, they will do whatever they can to make your vision come to life.If you are considering having an event at 28-Mile do not hesitate, I promise you will not be disappointed. I am already thinking about other events I can plan there, especially when the weather gets warm so I can utilize their roof & patio. I could not possibly be more grateful to everyone at 28-Mile for helping to make my son's Bar Mitzvah party a night we will never forget!!!“
“What an amazing place. I have been coming here since I was a kid and I’m in my 40’s now and it just keeps getting better. Everything from the stuffed pizza to the pasta you honestly can’t go wrong. We have had family parties here and I pick up a stuffed pizza any time I get a craving. The owners are great people so friendly as well as the entire staff. Give it a try you will not be disappointed and can’t go wrong there!“
“Really enjoyed the food and service. Sadey was extremely accommodating, friendly and made for a really great experience for our family dinner. She was so knowledgeable about the menu and so kind to our kids. The deep dish is the best of all Chicago deep dish!“
“Stopped by for some dine in lunch today with my husband. We both had the Detroit style Dom that has hot honey and it was so delicious. We also ordered 10 wings and the wings were amazing, some of the best wings I’ve had in a long time. This place didn’t disappoint and we will be back for sure! Only think missing was a cold beer. Lol“
“We are very particular about our pizzas and Northshore Pizza was exceptional! We ordered the stuffed pizza and wouldn't change a thing. -The crust is flavorful with a slightly crisp bottom ....perfect platform for the generous amount of cheese on top. The tangy sauce is delicious and brings the pizza to life. Even the customer service is great! These guys know what there doing! Definitely our new go-to.“
“The food here is AMAZING! It’s an excellent place to try something new or familiar but with an elevated taste. Plus it’s Vegetarian friendly!Vegetarian options: Every burger on the menu is able to be substituted for either a mushroom burger OR an impossible burger. They’re both delicious.“
“Great pizza, maybe the best in the area. But they really need to figure out logistics. They always seem to need several hours' lead time on preparing a pizza. If you call them at 4:30 pm, good luck getting something before 7:00. Seems like they need to expand to get more oven space. I'd eat there more often, but I'm not always thinking about dinner at 1:00 in the afternoon and most of the time I call, it's too long of a wait before anything can be ready.“
“Menu is not overly complicated, but everything is creative and delicious. Don't miss: buttermilk fried chicken sandwich, stuffed tater tots, cauliflower, quinoa bowl, and south by northwestern salad, the local beer menu, among other things. Prices are high, so be sure you have time to sit and enjoy the atmosphere while you're there.Vegetarian options: Buffalo cauliflower, roasted cauliflower, quinoa bowl, South by northwestern salad, Chile rellenos, plus moreKid-friendliness: $10 kids menu, but everything is yummy“
“My family and a couple of my sons hockey team members needed a quick food spot by the local Northbrook rink. Couple doors down from Pure Hockey too, bonus. Food was fantastic, lots of different options and had TVs to watch sports. Quick and easy. Menu was huge from Pizza, sandwiches/subs, salads, pasta and desserts. Staff was nice too. Would highly recommend.“
“Great little corner on Ashland and Farewell. They have some tables on the sidewalk.We love the pizza, the fried calamari and salads!Remember to order your ❤️ shaped pizza on Valentine's Day!Vegetarian options: Just ask your server. They are really accommodating.“
“We LOVE Union and eat here all the time. This week my brother, who has celiac, was visiting. They were so accommodating, and he said it's the best pizza he's had since he was diagnosed and that he'll be dreaming about coming back again. Thank you for helping a pizza lover be able to enjoy pizza again!“
“Great food and service. Nice family style place to take your family, friends, or loved one. Quality pizza made fresh every single day. I highly recommend the thin crust and pan pizza are two of my personal favorites. There are also options for anyone who is vegan and or vegetarian. They have catering, done in and carry out. I have been coming here for years and definitely a favorite spot of mine when I'm in Rosemont. Love it!Vegetarian options: Clearly listed ingredients, friendly staff able to cater to any dietary needs.Parking: Dozens of spots in the lotKid-friendliness: Very family friendly family styleWheelchair accessibility: Easily able to get a wheelchair inside with a do it in the pavement from the parking lot to sidewalk leading to the restaurant.“
“Had dinner here with my best friend. It was on St.Pattys weekend so the place was completely packed. The hostess may have been overwhelmed and not the friendliest, however our waitress was absolutely amazing. She gave great food recommendations and despite being super busy, she was on point with her service. Food and drinks were delicious. Will be planning girls night here soon, but maybe not on a holiday or major sports day.“
“Always the best, fast good food and the staff rocks it!!!Vegetarian options: A switch or two and it’s vegan or vegetarian and they totally don’t mind theyCare more to make you happy’!!!Dietary restrictions: Vegans at the shop and the pasta is perfect salads as well!!!“
“Service was great and food was amazing. I don't often like/get blue cheese with my hot wings but this was the first time I got it and enjoyed it! Also, the grilled cheese and tomato soup will now be my go to ALL the time. First time in but I will DEFINITELY be going back.“
“This place is the best local ‘place’.. literally a place for anyone and everyone. Been there twice and hospitality I received from the bartender/host was kind and warm. I am still exploring the menu ?, but love the ‘hot toddy’. You feel warm and fuzzy after one but 2 just makes me smile. Finally found my go-to ?“
“So the restaurant is beautiful, I love it!. Our server, Alex, was just so very extra awesome. One of the best servers and a real people person, wonderful !!The grigliati misti, grilled squid and octopus appetizer, out of this world delicious! The special pizza, burrata, soppressata with honey, DELICIOSO! but secretly I wanted a bit more soppressata. The only thing that wasn't that awesome were the baked clams. No matter..won't get them again..and I will be going again.“
“This place? and Patty❣️❣️ From the second we walked in (30 minutes til close on a Tuesday night), we were so welcomed and hooked! The extraordinary service (Patty❣️), unbelievable pizza, delicious salad, and Euro-perfect gelato made our faces and bellies smile❤️. Thank you, all! Can’t wait to return with more fam/friends. ? ? ?“
“We had our son's 1st birthday in the Fireplace Room at Countryside Saloon recently and we couldn't have been happier with how it turned out! We'd recommend anyone to have a big party here. We had about 50 guests and the space was more than big enough for people to walk around and mingle or sit down to eat. Staff allowed me to arrive an hour before the official party start-time so we could put up birthday decorations, including a large balloon arch (which the staff actually helped us take down & discard after the party, which was very helpful). We ordered an unlimited pizza, salad, and pasta salad food option from the kitchen, along with unlimited domestic beer pitchers, which all worked out wonderfully; food was delicious and nobody left hungry (or thirsty!). And the cost was reasonable to feed 50 people. Too bad our son will be too young to remember it, but everyone else had a great time!“

“The pizza here is great- you actually get a pretty large pizza even when you order smaller sizes. I like to order from here when I am having a large gathering. Every time I've ordered, the food has been very tasty and well done- the wings and sandwiches are also very good. The deliveries also come quickly and they prepare the food fast, even on Friday nights and weekends.“

“You really can't beat the original location. Best Lou Malnati's in the city, hands down. Dare I say, best pizza place in the city, too! Everyone has their preferences, but you have to admit that both their deep dish and thin crust are world class.The people who work here are also exceptionally kind and have an old school Italian (but not out of place nowadays) view of customer service. You can tell that the Malnati family really, truly care about what they do.And really, if they can do both thin crust and deep dish so well, not to mention all the other things they do, is it controversial to say they're the best?I don't know, but I've lived in Chicago my entire life and eaten at so many damn pizza places and if someone asked me where they could get an authentic Chicago pizza, whichever style they wanted to try, I don't know where else I'd feel as confident recommending.Parking: There is ample parking in their main lot, as well as overflow parking in the bank across the street in the evening.parking for pickup orders is its own lot and is very convenient to access. Compared to most places around here, you will find parking quite easy to come by.“
“One of my favorite places back home- recommend to all! Amazing food, great vibe, fast service and usually not very crowded so peaceful.Wheelchair accessibility: Can get inDietary restrictions: Mom is lactose intolerant and never has an issue“
“I do not know how people don’t like this place!! I grew up on it!! The employees are some of the nicest people I have ever met! Sure things are a little expensive, but that’s because of the location! I bet rent is crazy high!! The food, people and— the food are so amazing!!“
