50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Lake Forest

“Simply amazing for the last 15 years running!“

“Excellent food and great customer service there - unlike the Highland Park location which was horrible, consistently messing up orders every time without compensation, even after complaints.
Unsubscribing won't make SPAM stop from LM corporate (which actually violates Federal Privacy law). So I was forced to block them.“

“Awesome location! Store looks amazing, food taste great, and the staff are AWESOME!!“

“Great food. awesome customer service.“

“We stopped here as a recommendation from someone who lives there. It was obvious to me that all of their ingredients were gotten fresh. The tomatoes for their sauce are hand picked. Their sauce is excellent! The deep dish crust has a good crisp to it, we didn't feel greesy or bloated after eating it. I failed to grab the name of our waiter but he made the whole experience worth it. Great place for families and friends. It felt like home cooking.“

“Good thin crust and good ingredients, cooked perfect“

“Our pizza arrived quickly and cooked perfectly. We love Maciano’s! They used the best ingredients-quality cheese, great crust and the Italian sausage is wonderful!!“

“Delicious Mexican food and creative cuisine.“

“Fast friendly delivery, great pizza!“

“Love Barnabys...There thin crust pizza snappy crunch of the crust is perfect when dining in like any pizza way better dining there in person than having it get soggy /cooler transport home etc. Plus they serve Green River soda pop at the bar, a real treat in Chicago. Went out the norm for me and ordered half pepperoni and half cheese..I am a pizza snob and i actually think this is one of the best thin crust for the north suburb Chicagoland area 100% recommend!“

“First time trying Highly recommended“

“We came here on Saturday, September 20, 2025, after a very successful charity walk in town. We came here based on a recommendation and that was a very smart decision. They had so many different kinds of pizza and our large group got to try each of them. It was a slow Saturday so we got a lot of personalized focus and attention and I really enjoyed my meal here at Pizzeria DeVille and can’t wait to be back. 5 stars across the board. (Written 10-3-25)“

“Absolutely love this restaurant. We had brought a tray of lasagna to a party years ago and had nothing but rave reviews. We moved down to FL 7 years ago so it’s been awhile since we have been able to eat here. We bought another tray of lasagna this weekend for a party. Let me tell you…it was so delicious! We are still hearing people rave about it and hope it brings new customers your way. Your GF ravioli was awesome as well. Great food, wonderful customer service, cute restaurant. Now we just need a location opened in SWFL! We will be back and we will always highly recommend this place. Thank you!“

“My favorite pizza in the area! Gluten-free friendly, amazing food and even better service. I had a large pickup order today for myself and my family and when I arrived the kitchen manager came out to describe that they had to restart one of the pizzas, offering to let me go now with the rest of my order - plus the messup free for extra snackage - and that he would come deliver the remake himself in a bit so I didn’t have to wait. The entire staff was so friendly, kind and accommodating during the pickup and communication process. If you haven’t had Kaisers, what’re ya doin??“

“We order from here 1-3 times a week for lunch at my shop and dinner at home. The food is always fantastic, delivery is fast and the staff are very friendly and helpful. We've also gotten catering before too and that service was fantastic. Night driver Scott is awesome too!“

“Louie's is the best place to eat in Waukegan. Great Italian food, thin crust pizza, fried chicken and fish. Everything is great. They give you the best bread hot from the oven when you sit down. Huge bar. Family friendly. You can't go wrong at this place.“

“We held a family funeral lunch at Lino’s. The staff was welcoming, attentive and very friendly as they took care of our party, which filled their banquet room. We had a couple of chicken dishes, a couple of vegetable dishes, a garden salad, potatoes, and cannoli for dessert. Our guests raved about the food, which was delicious and hot! We could not be more enthusiastic in our recommendation of Lino‘s!“

“Always a good experience at The Silo Restaurant. Very polite and professional staff. They get busy so be patient. Burger meal and pizza were great. Mushrooms are excellent. Lots of parking.
Yes my burger was served with the smiley face! It made me smile too! 🙂“

“I had the California burger and it was literally the best burger I ever had. 10 out of 19,would eat here again.“

“We were in town for a convention and staying at a hotel. We decided to order a pizza our last night there. We chose Joe's at random, and we were not disappointed. Our order was delivered promptly by a very nice, and courteous person. The pizza we ordered was delicious. We loved everything about it -the thin crust, delicious sauce (not too much), and generous amount of cheese. I especially liked that the toppings were under the cheese, and there were herbs!! Kuddos to Joe's for great food and friendly service!!“

“You will not go wrong with Jester's pizza, thin-double decker All so delicious! A variety of hearty sandwiches to choose from and not to mention the homemade Soups and Chili. Thursdays are my favorite - TACO DAY!! The friendly staff will be happy to see you!!“

“i love this place. i’ve been going since i was a little kid with my grandparents. very good pizza!!! everyone is so friendly. my grandparents knew the owners :)“

“Fantastic addition to Northbrook…dine in or carry out, food is consistently delicious!“

“Best pizza in town.“

“The quality of the food and the level of excellence in the service make this one of our favorite pizzerias. They also have amazing salads and sandwiches. You must try this restaurant if you haven't. I highly recommend the Nonna's meatballs and Sicilian salad. Every pizza we've tried has been amazing.“

“Great pizza! Timely delivery.“

“Something new in the Mall food court! Staff is so friendly and talkative, love them! They have truly great selection of unordinary pizzas. You have to try ordering from the menu! Ready slices are good, but freshly made mouthwatering pizza is so much better. I tried pear pizza, was very impressive, chef's creation, but my best favorite is vegetarian pizza. Will be back soon. 👌“

“I have been going there for 60 years and it is still the very best. You order it with double sausage and what ever else you like on it and don't forget to order it well done. Everyone I take there said it is one of the best pizzas they ever had.“

“Came here after a long day of walking at the nearby amusement park. Place was not very crowded and we were able to order immediately and sit down. I ordered a mod pizza with several custom toppings. Pizza came out relatively fast, about 15 minutes, and were very warm. Pizza came out delicious and perfectly cooked. Pizza definitely filled me up fully. Overall, strongly recommend for a delicious pizza!“

“This is a solid pizza joint. I’ve ordered delivery 4-5 times. Good ingredients, speedy delivery and consistent results. Plus the delivery guy is a nice guy and seems genuinely proud of the pizza. I compare it to to Rosatis, but I like this better, and that’s with zero shade. In conclusion… if Jimanos is in your neighborhood hood, you should give it a chance. Ps the BLT Pizza was awesome. I feel like I invented it in 2002… But immediately thought it was better than the one I made. Only complaint… Too much bacon. But then I say that out loud and it sounds stupid. You can’t complain about too much bacon. That’s dumb. Everything that was supposed to be crisp was crisp and everything that was supposed to be hot was hot. Almost like a McDLT…“

“Aside from the pizza being amazing, big plus for whole wheat crust, I really think they grow their own people there! Every single time I call, no matter the reason, they are SO INCREDIBLY NICE. Every person who picks up the phone; helpful, kind, just NICE every time! How do they hire only nice people? I need the recipe. Thank you Pierros!“

“We had drinks and dinner at Mundelein restaurant on Saturday 10/5/24. We didn’t have reservations so we ate at the bar. It was all excellent! Friendly staff and the bartender made an excellent Margarita! Will be going back“

“Great, authentic Italian cuisine. Never disappoints.“

“We stopped today as a family for pizza before hitting up all the Home Alone sites. The pizza was incredibly delicious! The staff were friendly and the building itself was small and cozy. Fast service too! The neighborhood is delightful as well! Would absolutely stop again when in the area.“

“Great place to get dinner for the family.“

“We went to Washington Garden’s last night with friends hoping to enjoy some good Italian food. The food was delicious! The portions were large and the waitress couldn’t have been nicer. We will be returning soon. 🥰👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I want to thank Nikki at MOD Pizza for her kindness and support. She was so thoughtful in offering dessert to the individuals from Aspire and even provided fun activities during lunch. Her generosity and welcoming spirit made the experience extra special for everyone. Truly above and beyond service!“

“sauce is a little sweeter than I prefer but still good and they don't skimp on the toppings. decent place with a great staff“

“Very clean and kids love it. We will definitely be back.“

“This is the absolute best pizza in all of the Chicago Suburbs. It’s made fresh and if you dont mind a little wait you’ll love the taste. It’s not overly greasy and perfect in all the right ways. I do not eat pizza often but whenever I do, I only come here! Very true story.“

“Great food at a good price can't beat it. Hot and ready and on time we ordered it five stars to these guys.“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“Great Customer service and Quick deliver! Pizza was really good as well!“

“Good drinks, great spot to relax. The place has comfortable seating and a quiet atmosphere, perfect if you’re looking to wind down at the end of the night with friends or family. Drinks are solid, but most definitely on the pricey side. Still, it’s a nice spot when you want something a little more laid-back. I highly recommend the Porn Star- Although a bit embarrassing to order for a dude LOL, it was tart and delicious!“

“The Italian beef sausage combo was delicious. The only thing I disliked about is was the amount of Italian beef (they were very skimpy with it). The gyro is also also delicious. The pizza slices are okay.

The cashier was nice but needs to be a bit more welcoming“

“We love their sandwiches and their cheesy garlic bread is very good too!“

“We had fun for retirement party.“

“The pizzeria offers incredibly delicious pizza prepared very quickly on thin crust dough. You can choose your own toppings and sauces, which is a fantastic feature. The service is fast, and the interior design is beautiful and stylish, creating a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great pizza experience!“

“I am a tour director in Chicago. My company booked Giordanos on Belmont for 2 bus loads of high school students at 6pm. We unexpectedly got there at 5pm! Luis and his team were able to seat and serve us in short order. Thank you Luis and team. Giordanos pizza is the best!“
