I have been ordering from Al's Cicero location for several years and the quality is just as good at this location, if not better. Al's has always been known for their excellent, yet underrated thin crust pizza and this place doesn't disappoint. If you're a fan of the original location in Cicero, you will not be disappointed read more

Al's was hired by my company to do an event this past weekend and we would definitely hire them again! The food was complimented by all at the event and the team from Al's was hard-working and professional. Thanks again to you and your team, Anthony! Jennifer read more

Decided to try something new tonight, as our go to restaurant wasn't open. After reading the reviews, I decided to give Al's a try. What a huge MISTAKE! The Italian beef was really bland, and the bread was dry on the ends. The cheese for the cheese fries was water and *shocking* relatively tasteless. My husband's wings were also dry. Truly disappointed with this entire order and I wish I could ask for my money back. Save your money and order from a restaurant with quality food. read more

Al's is my teenage niece's favorite pizza--she may age out of this opinion soon since she has hit puberty. I think it's great for delivery for kids. They have a babysitter's special deal that is a 14" large cheese pizza, 12 chicken fingers, cheesy garlic bread, and a liter of pop for 19.95. This special is available daily. It is cheap and the kids love it. I find it a little mild for my taste but it's a great crowd pleaser for the tot to picky teen set and I see it more as an alternative to frozen pizza for kids (think along the line of a John's pizza or Totino's, not classy frozen like Kashi or a Home Run Inn). They have a pick-up only special that is (4) sausage sandwiches or (4) Italian beef sandwiches for 14.25. We like this as a quick, decent, cheap takeout option. Al's is in the town of North Riverside, not Riverside. read more

Good food good price. Nothing fancy. Tasty pizza. I had the tomato with fresh mozzarella and it was seasoned perfect. I have been there a few times and tried other things on the menu and no complaints. Has a kids menu thats a bonus! read more

As the sign says, this is a pizza place. If you are looking for great pasta or chicken wings, go somewhere else. If you are looking for the best thin crust pizza within twenty miles, go here. I recommend picking it up to go. You aren't missing anything not dining in. This place is open near the heart of the pizza district of Cicero/Berwyn. Some of Chicago's best chains have started in these neighborhoods, and this place came right in and is here to stay. Their football pizza can feed 6-7 hungry men for around $30. Personally, I like it with sausage and giardanera (sp?) well done. The well done really makes it. Al's is my favorite thin crust anywhere near the city, and I eat pizza like it is going out of style. read more

Food is great, but poor service. Especially the rude girl (big girl with glasses & piercings) that doesn't know how to talk to Customers. Someone needs to train her (not to argue with customers) & to be more friendly!!! Update 12/27/17 The rude girl is long gone!! The new girls in front are super friendly & professional!! I order from Als every week, best pizza around town!! read more

I have had a few events catered by Al's and I have been completely satisfied with EVERYTHING! The food was delicious, delivered precisely on time, fair priced and the owner is super friendly and accommodating. We will continue to support this hidden gem for future family gatherings read more

My company orders from here quite often. We pretty much always order a football size pizza (feeds roughly 8 people) with ground beef and jalapenos. It is so yummy and it's usually devoured within minutes upon delivery. I stopped in the actual store front yesterday and was pleased to find that I could order just a slice to go. I also made note to try a couple other items I wasn't aware they offered: bruschetta bread, stuffed mushrooms and gelato! I'll let you all know how it goes! read more

Haven't been to Al's since the pyramids and its nice that they had a location near where I was that day for those that don't want to go into Cicero. Prices didn't seem too bad for a well-established local business whom can charge whatever they please since most will pay it. Got a stuffed pizza to go. Sauce was more on the oregano side, wished the crust had more flavor. Not too shabby overall. read more

After a less than par first impression, Al's definitely redeemed themselves. My roommate and I received credit for a pizza as an apology for our experience. I certainly was not expecting anything to come of my first review. It's refreshing to see a business that is striving toward customer satisfaction. I've been in the hospitality industry long enough to respect their integrity. Sure, I got a free pizza out of it, but that wasn't even the best part. Al's is now our go-to delivery option. As nocturnal musicians, you can bet that we make frequent late-night food calls. The pizza is fantastic. The delivery is timely. Sweet deal. read more

Expensive. with tip $30.50 for a 16" 1/2 topping pizza. My pizza arrived on time but was cold , dry and overcooked. No sauce at all. I tipped driver well too and got a cold pizza. read more

So after seeing and reading so many good reviews about this place, I wanted to try it tonight and was hoping they would deliver all the way to Oak Park, which they obliged... not to mention food was cooked and here in 39 minutes, can't beat it!! So delivery driver and lady who took my order were both very nice. Ordered a 1/2 sausage and 1/2 cheese thin crust and an order of mozzarella sticks. Mozzarella sticks were fantastic, and pizza was really quite delicious; next time though I will ditch the sausage and just stick to all cheese because I am not a huge sausage fan and therefore a snob when it comes to it, but to each their own, seems a lot of reviewers do love it. Overall, really good service and really good food. Can't wait to try their fettucine alfredo next, since I also read a rave review about that, and it is my fave. They do have quite the extensive menu, so there is definitely something for everybody. Thanks for making my night complete and my stomach full, Al's! I will see you again :-) read more

Love, Love Love Al's Pizza!! The stuffed with just cheese is the best I've ever had!! I used to drive from the city just to have it! The thin is pretty good too We usually get sausage + Mushroom! As far as the other food goes I would probably rate it a 4 at most. They are definetly famous for the delicious Pizza!! Must try!!! read more

Food is always amazing here. I usually get the fried chicken dinner with a salad and baked potato. But the fresh fries are awesome and so are the sweet potato fries. The family dinners are a great bargain especially the Italian beef for $21.99. It was enough to feed 4 hungry people including 2 men plus leftovers. The gelato is absolutely delicious as well. Angel at the front desk is one of the best girls they've had in there. She was so attentive and friendly and had great conversation for waiting customers, she really made our visit although short very fun. We will definitely be back soon! read more

I'm normally a fan; haven't had Al's in awhile so I ordered and it was the worst pizza ever! Absolutely no flavor whatsoever and barely cooked! Gross read more

Ordered delivery from here last night and was very disappointed. The Al's salad came with salami that was very dark in color and smelled a little suspect. Also got a slice of pepperoni that seemed like it had been sitting under a warmer for a while before it was delivered. Pretty obvious they took a slice of cheese pizza and just threw pepperoni on top and warmed it up. On a plus, the driver was polite and then can of Coke he brought was cold. read more

I just threw $35 down the toilet. I order a stuffed cheese pizza. The dough was 3 layers thick of raw dough. Wasnt cooked thoroughly. And also got the Chicken Pompeii (which is supposed to be their specialty). The 2 balls of deep fried chicken was obviously thrown in to the deep fryer numerous times. Both the pizza and the chicken were not eatable. Haven't had a meal this bad in a long time. Very disappointed. read more

Hideous! Went there with my son who was starving. I bought two slices of overpriced pizza. After making it only half way through one slice my son stopped eating. WHa? This boy loves pizza. I asked him if he was full and all he said back was, "Just try it, Dad," I did. Tasted like ketchup poured on top of cardboard with microwave-melted cheese. Absolutely disgusting! I didn't even ask for my money back. I felt so disrespected that my only thought was to get the heck out and NEVER return. How are they still in business? read more

This was one of the offshoots of the Al's in Cicero. I say "was" because they do not list each other on their menus - Cicero lists itself as Al's Italian Restaurant and this (and Woodridge) are Al's Pizzeria. And though there was really no difference initially when this location opened compared to Cicero, the Cicero location I feel has gone downhill. The flavor of the pizza itself is different. This location reminds me much more of the Al's I remember. It's hard to qualify what some of the differences are other than to say that if you've been getting it from the Cicero location and you think it has changed, it probably has. Give this one a shot and see if you agree with me. read more

Have ordered multiple items from the menu and had no issues with anything. Pizza is also very good. Definitely will keep coming back.

I ordered food from their catering menu for a party last weekend. Everything was wonderful!! Their food was delicious, and the service was excellent! I ordered salad, baked mostaccioli, sausage & peppers, and chicken marsala. Very tasty!! I highly recommend! Thank you for such great service and food! read more

I/we Never had a pizza that we didn't like, maybe it was not our style but always eatable, Well That is until now, So we drive past a lot and my husband suggested we try it a couple of Fridays ago, we get it home about a mile away, I take a bite and not to spoil his opinion I don't say anything , I wait until he tries it himself,WTF was the look on both our faces, It was so HARD the crust was so THICK the toppings were so FLAT, and FEW, You know for the $ it cost we expected a decent Pizza, it was HORRIBLE, we ended throwing it in the garbage which is something we NEVER have done before, at this point we did not even want to call and complain, because places that put out a product this bad probably does not have good P.R. Oh and did I mention we asked for extra Thin crust, I will NEVER recommend this place, I cringe Thinking about this pizza as I'm writing this...P.S The only reason I,m giving it a 1 is Yelp would not let me post without a rating... read more

Food is not good, price is expensive. I also really don't like the computer desk chairs behind the desk. They are so filthy dirty I have no idea how the owner isn't embarrassed when his customer's see this. read more

HORRIBLE customer service!! I placed an order at Al's because my Aunt recommended the place. I refuse to place another ordee at Al's because the service is so awful. I went into the restaurant, placed my order and waited in the dining area. After waiting for a couple of minutes, one of the male employees approached me. He wanted to see my receipt. Before I could respond, he had already grabbed the receipt from my hand! I wasn't given any explanation for why he needed the receipt. He was very rude. He finally came back to give me my receipt and he gave the reason for grabbing it. The icing on the cake was opening the pizza at home and seeing that the cheese had slid. I couldn't believe it, I've never opened a pizza that looked like that before. I didn't bother calling back for a new pizza. Why? It was obvious that they didn't want my service, so I won't be back. Get your customer service together Al's. read more

Um...really? What's with all the positive reviews of this place? The pizza was naaaaaaasty. A frozen Tombstone pizza is far superior to the stuff they serve here. I can't believe I spent any money on the garbage pizza I just ate from here. The crust is pre-made (complete with processed food pattern holes), crappy cheese, and the "fresh basil" you expect on the Margherita pizza is actually just dried basil flakes sprinkled on. Disgusting. Thumbs down for taste/quality. read more

Not bad considering what's in the Westchester, Broadview, Riverside area. The meat lovers pizza is the best thing on the menu.

We've had Al's before at friends' houses, and y'know, pizza is pizza. It's a good solid regular pizza. But then we had our coupon from LivingSocial, and decided to try their stuffed pizza. And I think I could eat it morning, noon, and night every day until I die. Or pass out from being stuffed. Or explode, spewing pizza all over the place. Whatevs. Totally delish, perfect stuffed pizza. We just got cheese, and I almost snapped at my husband this morning when he wanted to take the leftovers to work. Delivery or takeout - there's a couple small tables along one wall, but not a dining room. Go there now! read more

Place doesnt know difference between steak fries and fresh cut fries. Twice now recently we have had to have new fried chicken dinners redelivered to us with FRESH CUT fries as originally ordered, after giving driver a generous 8 dollar tip on first delivery. Ill bet that same driver got no reimbursement on his second drive here from his boss, and we certainly were not credited anything for eating dinner an hour later. Not ever ordering from here again, after 5 or so years. Buh bye and best of luck. Will not recommend you at all. read more

Used to love Al's, quality and flavor has gone down! How does a football pizza have only 12 sausage? I asked for sausage and cheese, not a couple sausage with my cheese pizza! Time to find a new hot spot! read more

Al's Pizza is the quintessential "good" pizza. There's nothing terribly unique about it, but they offer competitive prices and large size pizzas. Al's is my go-to when ordering for large (6-7 persons) groups. Their wings and pasta are decent as well. They have some nice family specials that include their "football" size pizza, wings, and pasta, for about $50. Their consistency and timeliness keep me coming back. read more

Good pizza, friendly and laid back mom and pop restaurant. The cannolis are great too.

Not happy about delivery, I usually have no problem but they really screwed up and had no apology for it!

Pretty good pasta. I dont like mushy pasta but it could have been cooked about 2 mins longer as it was quite chewy and still tasted like flour. Meatballs are a good size, tender and tasty. Pizza was good. It was late. It hit the spot. I would try it again. read more

I ordered pizza and boneless wings . When I opened it they were bone in wings , called the restaurant and the girl on the phone said I was wrong .Not very good customer service .Wont order from there again. I guess they know better than I, what I ordered. read more

Great food packages and tasty pizza. Get their football pizza.

I decided to order a stuffed pizza 10"in with just cheese. The guy on the phone was nice when I ordered. But when I ate some, the ingredients tasted good, but it was way to doughy. I have had better else where. I most likely will eat her again, but next time it will be thin crust pizza. And if the thin isn't good I will not be back. read more

I ordered the calamari it was pretty good but the people on the phone are very rude they really need some manners.

If there was an option to pick 0 stars.. I would do that. Where to start.. Honestly ever since they got this new manager who won't even confront customers when there's an issue, the place has been going down... it's so unfortunate because before her the place was amazing. I ordered food on a Monday for lunch for people I work with.. i walk in and the person behind the counter had the worst hygiene i have ever seen. Like what food business places someone who looks like they just got out of bed and looks like he hasn't showered in weeks to be working here? This guy had 0 manners. My food was cold.. all of it.. my pizza, my pasta, everything. And no i didnt wait an hour to go get the food, i was there 25 minutes as the guy told me and had it back to work in 5. no reason this food should be cold. I call and ask to speak to a manager and he said no one was in (professional right?) and He tells me yeah come in if you have an issue and he HUNG UP ON ME!!!!!! like what????? Overall..this place has gone down the drain and before you think of spending 40$+ on food. Go somewhere else where you get what you pay for. read more

If I want delicious pizza this is my go to place. Pizza here is always delicious and the delivery time is almost always faster than what they say it will be. :) We love pizza and have tried many places but this must be the best I have ever had. I also enjoy their other food options, but their pizza is definitely #1 on my list!! read more
