    a pizza box
    Steve T.

    In search of a good local Chicago style deep dish pizza, I decided to give Big City Pizza a shot this week, having seen theme listed on a FB foodies group as a purveyor. And frankly I was delighted! The "Chicago Stuffed" pizza was very thick, of course, with a buttery crust, as is traditional for Chicago deep dish. The tomato was very tangy, more akin to tomato paste, in terms of flavor than typical pizzas. I ordered it with pepperoni, sausage, and garlic, my go-to pizza toppings. And the cheese, can't leave out the cheese. It was loaded with cheese, the kind that makes for a big stretch when you pull a slice out. Yum! They build the pizza with a homemade dough base, then cheese, then toppings, then another layer of cheese, and their hose-made pizza sauce. I also ordered the Big City House Salad, which I recommend. Pretty basic, it comes with tomatoes, bacon, and mozzarella cheese. I'm not always in the mood for such an indulgent pie, but it's nice to know where to get one locally. Give em a shot!

    I ordered a pizza from Big City last week through the Eat Street app. It was convenient and I didn't have to wait long when I got there to pick it up. During Covid they are bringing the food out to your car so you have to call or knock on the door when you arrive. The pizza was just like any average pizza. Nothing to complain about but it wasn't memorable either. We got the deluxe pizza with pepperoni and sausage and a few veggies. I mainly ordered from here because it was close by. I would order again.

    Deep dish pizza with pepperoni! Sooo good. We will be back!

    Great place and great pizza! I was shocked. This place coming from georegtown was a hidden gem. We will be back!

    Lex Burger week burger! It was really good, wish the bun was toasted but enjoyed it!

    We liked their burger week burger. The bun was cold that was the only thing I would have changed about the burger. Probably one of our favorite burgers during burger week. The fries were a little underdone but still edible.

    Craving a new pizza experience, my friend and I used to Yelp app to select Big City Pizza, and we very much enjoyed it! The bread sticks and the pizza we tried were really good! That said, the star of our visit was their Calzone - it was nothing short of incredible :-) For dessert we got a huge cookie that had obviously just been freshly baked; we ate it and it was warm; a really nice finish to an great meal. Service was friendly and quick, and the prices were reasonable; combine that with the quality of their food and I'm sure we'll be back!

    This is my go to spot whenever I'm craving pizza. Their service is amazing and their pizza is very good good. They have 3 locations in the area. One in Nicholasville, Lexington on Chinoe. and Richmond. Pizza is always hot whenever you get it delivered or pick up. They have been doing great with contact less pick up and delivery. My recommendations is the Chicago Stuff, Cheese Sticks, and the Mac and Cheese pizza

    So, after being suggested by a friend, we ordered from Big City. Unfortunately, something came up and we had to leave before we could eat. The hubs at two pieces of the pizza on the run and liked it. Today, it's going to be brunch. I've taken pictures of before being reheated. Not thrilled with how the sandwich looks. Had I eaten it last night, I'd have had to eat mostly all bread on the ends or redistributed the myself.

    If you are looking for a good quality, basic pizza Big City fits the bill. A previous reviewer nailed it though when they said Big City was a better version of Papa Johns. The pizza is good and loaded with toppings but doesn't stand out much. Delivery took a while longer than expected but considering there was a near monsoon outside I can't complain. I am interested in trying out the Chicago deep dish on another visit since there aren't really many options in the area for a good Chicago style pie.

    Probably more like a 4.5 as I was close to saying 5 stars. I had heard of a Chicago stuffed pizza in a local Facebook group but didn't see it on the menu and could not find it online to order. I called in and mentioned it... to my surprise yes they have a Chicago stuffed and it was excellent! I love Chicago style pizza and this one didn't disappoint. Buttery crisp crust with a ton of cheese, pepperoni (my choice of topping today) and a very tasty pizza sauce on top made this my new favorite pizza in town. I'll be going back for more. We also had the cheese sticks and they were better than most I've had. Can't wait to go back as I'd like to try some others on the menu like their pan and New York style but I'm not sure I'll be able to pass up ordering the Chicago stuffed.

    Hubby and I are recent transplants from Huntsville, AL We looked at online pictures and Big City Pizza caught our eye, the restaurant looked to have a good vibe. Due to some medical problems, we chose to have our food delivered. The first time we tried Big City Pizza, we had the SOHO pizza and The Bronx pizza. The hand tossed crust is pretty good. But the toppings on the SOHO seemed to be lacking. It was still good enough to give Big City a second chance. Tonight we ordered the Bronx again because the husband likes it. That's where the two stars comes from. I had the Antipasto salad and the central Park Veggie Sub. Very disappointed! The presentation of my sandwich was good. It was delivered hot and fresh and when I opened it up I was pleasantly surprised at how yummy it looked. Then, I looked inside the bread and major disappointment set in. I ate the sandwich because, well, I was hungry. It was more like bread with a hint of mushroom and I think I tasted artichoke in one bite but I'm not sure because it was just a faint hint. The pictures will show what I'm talking about. The antipasto salad could have been good but I pulled out most of the lettuce. Even with the lettuce gone, it still lacked anything special. I've had much better. I'm sad because Big City just looks like a cool place. The menu is exciting and sounds delicious but the food isn't cutting it. Perhaps this was an isolated incident because I know the restaurant business can have "off" nights. We all know sh*t happens. Regardless, I'm not sure we will give Big City a third try...

    See all

    I have ordered from here several times. The quality is definitely decreasing. Almost no sauce and skimpy cheese. Disappointing

    The pizza is fine, but it always takes 20-30 mins longer than the estimated time they give you.
