Lefty's staff is very friendly and helpful they make sure you feel welcome and unhurried. The pan pizza is phenomenal with a great selection of toppings. Similar to Burt's and Pequod's but conveniently in the North shore. But lefty's dough to cheese and sauce ratio is so much more on point then Pequods and Burts. 100% recommend!

Beware of this place! They do have good pizza if they give you the correct order & take a hour longer than they said, and screamed on the phone because I had that wrong order. As far as I. Concerned it’s very unlikely I’ll go here again unless I have a gift card.

I used to really like this place but there’s other pizza places that I can go to they treat you nicer than this place.

Been getting pizza from Lefty’s for years and it never disappoints. We’re big pizza snobs and have had both Pequods’ locations along with Burt’s. But Lefty’s, with their rendition, comes out on top. They cook the pies to perfection and the toppings, along with everything else, are very high quality.

Great pizza restaurant in the heart of downtown Wilmette. You can order pan or thin and they have a wide variety of appetizers and salads. Their selection of local brews and wines is also very nice. The staff is excellent and super friendly. They have seating inside or outside and on a nice night, I’d definitely recommend outside.
If you’re just not feeling the going out vibe, order in! They deliver and you can swing by for fast pickup.

A family favorite. Pan pizza with caramelized crust (similar to Pequod's). Quality ingredients and toppings. If the Highland Park location hadn't closed, we would get this much more often

We have ordered here for years and love this place. Really love the crust of this pizza. Last night our large 14in pizza appeared to be made on a Boboli or some other store bought crust. Complete dissapoitntment. Not sure what was up but... wow. bad.

Anyone who doesn’t give 5 stars doesn’t know what they’re talking about. The thin crust is unbelievable. Better than anything else you’ve ever had.

You like Lou’s or Pequods deep dish? This is as good if not better.

If you don’t love this pizza you should stick with Dominos. LOVE this place. We have it every Friday since we moved here 3 years ago and it’s never disappointed.

If you’re looking for something fun to do they let kids make their own pizzas on Mondays!

My jaw dropped when I saw that this place only has 4.3 stars. Should be way higher imo. I don’t normally order pizza because it’s pretty easy to make at home and my partner and I are quite good at making it, but this place was recommended and we had to try it when we came to town. We were both blown away by it and we are very excited that they are here in Wilmette. We don’t live here but will be sure to swing by whenever we are in town! Also super friendly service. People need to get off their high horses here in the north shore because this place is legit and should absolutely be rated higher.

This has got to be some of the best pizza I have ever tried. The customer service was amazing and I could not recommend this place more.

Pizza was 30 minutes late and completely cold. Probably tasty if it was hot, but it’s on them to deliver hot food

Something is wrong with this restaurant. The driver was late & my food was burnt. I'd try getting delivered from Marco Roma or Panino's instead.
