50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Hometown

“My favorite place for deep dish“

“oh my goodness I found this pizza by chance at my local Meijer. Hands down best frozen pizza or any take and bake. The sausage was delightful and the Cheese was The Cheesiest ever it actually did the cheese stretch. Great Job it doesn't deserve the Bottom shelf“

“The food was excellent. We were a party of 6 and everyone had something different. Portion sizes were large. Food was piping hot when served. Wait staff was friendly. The owner came over to check on our group at least twice during our dining experience. Loved the atmosphere. I will come here every time I’m visiting Chicago!“

“I just did a catering order for 250 people at a company event yesterday. The food was delivered on time and everyone loved it. This is a great place to consider for catering.“

“Phenomenal.
Food is authentic Italian no photography allowed. Portions are copious amounts and tender delicious was the chicken parmesan.
Gelato is an amazing piece of art just to look at. Smooth as silk creamy. I had some pistachio and lemon cello.
Even the customers are kind and courteous. I'm not in that area very often at all. But if I were, I'd go back in there!“

“I always loved beggers but last night pizza was nothing to like. it was thin and anemic. not the beggars I'm used to. It was like anybody else's pizza. the reason we love beggars is because they lay it on thick. This wasn't even close to being thick. Has something changed cause? If it has, I'll go get pizza from anywhere else.Cause that's what this tasted like. This was dyer“

“We live towards the Rockford, Il area but never ever miss an opportunity to visit. I get the Italian beef pizza and my friend gets the polish sausage and sour kraut pizza. TO DIE FOR!!! Love love love ❤️“

“Carbone pizza is delicious! The atmosphere is amazing and the service even better! The bruschetta is a must try.“

“The cheeseburgers are awful and thin. Our server was rude. My boyfriend woke up the next morning vomiting all day from eating there the night before. We will never come back.“

“Our go to Pizza Night spot. Quick & delicious every time!“

“I’ve been patronizing the Midlothian location for a couple years now and they never fail!! Food is ready on time always. Fresh and piping hot. Always pizza for my family but this past Saturday I tried the breaded mushrooms, OMG!! Hot, crunchy and seasoned perfectly. No sauce needed. The 2 young men at the register, bubbly and friendly! 😊😊“

“the best pizza in orland park“

“Best restaurant in Chicago ! ❤️“

“A Chicagoan recommended I take the pink line to 18th for this best ever pizza. With crunchy thin crust and an unexpectedly large serving size, it was piping hot and topped with tons of cheese and a generous amounts of sausage and hot honey. Mmmmm!

The horchata was the creamiest ever. The service was kind and helpful and the playlist was straight out of my neighborhood in the 90s. Made for a wonderful meal with lots of memories. Make sure to follow up with a visit to the National Museum of Mexican Art just across the street. Great people, great food, all around fun.“

“So I'm in town for a few days. I felt the need for some deep dish. Gino's East, across the street from my hotel, unexpectedly closed early, so I came here. Talk about a happy accident! The sauce was way better than I expected (which is important for this kinda thing). The crust, exquisite. Ingredients, first rate. The pricing was actually way more conducive to customization.
In summary, if you want great deep dish, this is your best bet.“

“The pizza and toppings are amazing!!“

“The shaved ice is amazing. They have several flavors to choose from. That was my favorite part actually.

The pizza was okay. It needs seasoning in the sauce. I had pepperoni and my husband had pepperoni and sausage. He said the sausage tasted like Casey's sausage. Do with that what you will.

Other than the lack of seasoning, the crust was great. If you LOVE cheese, you will like how much cheese they use. The pepperonis would taste better if they were above the cheese, but that is of course preference. Overall nice place. 1 slice is all you really need do to the size of each slice.“

“Just had their steak (carne asada) tacos! Absolutely fantastic! The green salsa is on point! Very generous on the size of their tacos. I'm extremely picky when it comes to getting tacos in fact I only like my tacos from one or two taco places in all of Chicago. This is my first time coming here and this spot just got added to my small list. I will most definitely stop by this place whenever I'm around this area. Thank you for the great food! May God bless you with more business.“

“Fantastic food, service & staff as always. Always going above & beyond for ya“

“1st time being here and everything was A+! We came in and sat at the bar while our food was being freshly made. Awesome and Friendly staff! Enjoyed a little bit of the game on tv and had some cheese fries while we waited with our drinks. I definitely want to go back and try more on the menu! Brought the pizzas home to 4 teenagers and they devoured them in minutes. Lol Thanks so much for nice little “date” night while we waited. 🍕“

“Art of Pizza was such a great experience! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The service was smooth, the atmosphere was relaxed, and everything felt easy and enjoyable.

But let’s talk about the pizza, because wow. This was hands down some of the best pizza I’ve ever had. Fresh, flavorful, perfectly cooked, and just overall amazing. Every bite was worth it.

If you’re in Chicago and debating where to grab pizza, this place absolutely delivers. I would 100% go back. 🍕“

“We had a group of 7 and our server was so attentive, answering all of our questions and all the recommendations were on point. He was very helpful with a nut allergy. The pizza was delicious as well as the lasagna. The lemon sorbet was just the right amount of sweet and tart. We will definitely be back.“

“their neapolitan pizza is the BEST around here. Perfectly chewy with a slightly charred crust ... trust when I tell you it is tasty, give it a shot. you won't be disappointed. Also, the sausage arancini is phenomenal... be sure to grab an order with a Margarita napoletana pizza and you're in for good treat.“

“5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I used to get this pizza when I was growing up in Orland Park. It's still an amazing pizza and the (owner?) who I've interacted with a couple times recently has been incredibly inviting when you enter his business, super friendly. That's great but like I said, the pizza is outstanding! I love supporting the small guy. If you haven't given them a try, do it. You won't be disappointed! If I still lived in Orland Park this would be my go to every time! Plus I got to catch the Bears interception play on their TV today when I was grabbing my pizza. 🐻 ⬇️“

“Pat’s is, by far, our favorite pizza - probably in the city. We love thin crust, easy cheese, with whatever other toppings. We generally get our delivery before it’s promised. We’re loyal Pat’s customers for many, many years. We’ve been in the south loop / printers row neighborhood since 1984.“

“Bad customer service. Managers had an attitude after they messed up my order.“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. The manager was super nice and the service was great.“

“We LOVE ❤️ Milly’s meticulously hand crafted pizza! You can absolutely taste the love and care that goes into their food-well worth the wait to experience this deliciousness!! Keep up the great work we’re customers for life!“

“The pizza here is PHENOMENAL! So good in fact, we order it par-baked and I drive over 5 hours one way from Mid-Michigan to get it! My husband and his brother grew up down the street eating Obbies every summer. We've shared that love with our kids, who slam this pizza like it's their last meal! We've also shared our love for Obbies with friends in our area, who then put in their orders when we head West. THANK YOU GUYS for being so accommodating with the prep for transport!“

“Best pizza slices around!“

“Pepperoni and sausage pizza 🔥🙌🏽“

“Had a wonderful time here, it has the charm of a small town ma and pa. The food is absolutely delicious, and the new owners Sarah and Andrew add an extra shin to the place. I’m excited to bring my fiance here. I brought him a mini stuffed home and he raved about it!!!“

“service and atmosphere were great, the staff were very welcoming and nice and the food was great. only thing is that i got the boneless wings that were honestly not that good, wish i got something else but besides that i had a great time with my girlfriend“

“First time here an the staff was beyond amazing an very chill an relaxing atmosphere for dine in . The pizza was amazing with a great selection for vegan pizza as well an most definitely coming back again !“

“If you want some semi fast Italian fare, go here. Sure, it's not gourmet, but it's priced accordingly. They always have coupons going and my orders are always ready when I get there. Open a bit later on the weekends, which is nice.“

“ingredients are wholesome, taste of pizza is delicious! Save the box and cut it open so you have something to cut your pizza on as it does not come with a cardboard.“

“The taco pizza was phenomenal!!! Me and my friends recently went for my birthday and the worker Joe was so kind, he introduced us to some Italian dishes and even sang for me in his native tongue. Genuinely such a kind soul it truly made my day 😊😊“

“Awesome thin crust pizza, just like you imagined in your dream last night.“

“Paisan’s is my go to since moving to Naperville. I came from Evergreen Park, so I’m used to better pizza than most places I’ve tried. Paisan’s has been the only place that has been great across the board!“

“Hands down the Butter Burger was the best burger I have ever enjoyed, and I have thrown back a few burgers in my time...😎“

“Needed a place to grab quick lunch before heading out to our next adventure with my kids and parents and the service was amazing. Even though another person came in and started harassing the employee and us and ruined our meal the employees customer service was incredible as someone who has worked in customer service I understand but his professionalism goes above and beyond. I just want to say thank you for sticking up for my kids especially and family.“

“My only complaint is I’m mad I just found out about this place. We ordered a sausage pizza, it’s right up there in my top 5 best pizza’s. It’s very well seasoned and they don’t skimp on the sausage. Delicious pizza, Friendly costumer service , and the price wasn’t bad at all. My husband loved it too and he’s very hard to please when it comes to pizza. We will definitely be becoming regular customers.“

“Lou Malnati’s delivers exactly what Chicago deep-dish is supposed to be. Thick, buttery crust, rich sauce that actually tastes like tomatoes instead of sugar paste, and toppings that don’t feel rationed. This is the real deal, not some tourist-trap interpretation pretending to be pizza while committing crimes against cheese.
Service was solid too. Attentive, friendly, and efficient without hovering like they’re afraid you’ll steal a fork. Food came out hot, fresh, and clearly made by people who know what they’re doing and care at least a little about their reputation.
With over 60 locations, they’ve clearly figured out how to scale without completely selling their soul, which is rare in the pizza world. If you want authentic Chicago deep dish done right, this place earns its name and then some. Not trendy, not flashy, just consistently good pizza.“

“Growing up in the Chicago area, especially on the south side, you EXPECT local pizza joints to be good. Lots of places that don't primarily sell pizza still have better pizza that you get in other parts of the country.

Though it's been around for a long time, as have I, I'd never tried Rosangela's prior to this time, and I'm here to say that I am a believer.

I tried introducing a colleague of mine to chicago pizza at a couple other places, and they did not impress him... Rosangela's did.

Just a medium special and a drink, but I will tell you that it's some of the best tavern style things crust pizza you'll ever have.

It's as good as your favorite place, and likely better.

Try it.“

“Swag was very kind and helpful. He helped me navigate through the menu because I had never been to jets. I told him that I was trying to feed 4 people and he gave me the best options in my price range. Everyone should have great customer service like him.“

“I come here all the time! My daughter doesn't eat anything other than pizza unfortunately so with three kids coming here through the drive through is so easy and i never even knew there is such a thing called drive thru pizza before lol. Their pizza slices are gigantic so its enough to get u full quick!“

“Delicious pizza, great food overall, good daily specials. reasonable beer prices and friendly, attentive bartenders! I love this place.“

“Great food great service good atmosphere“

“I really have enjoyed your pizza. But the past few times ordered no so much. There is way tooooo much fennel seeds in the sausage. Actually over powering the sausage taste.“

“I walked into Paisans the location for your next Super Bowl Party experience. My pics will speak for themselves. I wanted their Chicken Chili soup but I was out voted. As you stroll through the party row get your line dance on. Service was top notch and cocktails well once you get one you will come back for another. The see through kitchen took me back to Italy.“
