    Cheese Slice
    Pooja P.

    Carusos is my go-to place for pizza, by the slice! During lunch, you get a massive slice of pizza (pictured below - one slice cut in half) and a drink for $5! They have a few tables and chairs for indoor dining, but it's mostly a takeout option! The workers are always so friendly! Tip: - get a side of ranch for the pizza! -preorder even a slice of pizza because they are always busy during lunchtime! I'll be back very soon!

    It's no Giordano's, but perhaps it's the best pizza in DesPlaines. I was on my way to the office and decided to stop in for a slice of pizza. It came out quick and hot. He upsaled my order and convinced me to buy a drink for only 1 additional dollar. If I'm in the area and in the mood for a slice, I'd definitely check them out again.

    All prices raised! Pandemic pricing!!! Ask for a total before ordering. Good Luck Jack!

    dried cold fries Cold and no peppers and undipped italian beef cold

    just went there today and brought 3 cheesy beef w/ hot peppers and 3 cheesy fries.$47.00 God knows I want my money back It is horrible. No pepper, no dip, and the fries aren't even fresh! I live in hanover park and I use to live across the street from Carouso's 1990 til 2019. The owner I was told today retired and I can tell the quality is horrible and the fires are in the garbage. what a waste of $47.00 I will never go back!

    The best

    Good pizza but not great. If in Des Plaines go to Country side for better tavern style pizza.

    Pretty good thin crust pizza. Could use a little more when it comes to toppings. But I would go there again.

    LOVE Caruso's, have yet to find a pizza like this in the southside. When in the area I am sure to take on home to splurge.

    I had lunch here on my last full day in Chicago on Sunday. It was the ideal place to do so since it…read morewas Week Two of the 2026 NFL season (the Bears-Vikings game was on). My brother, three of my cousins and I sat at a round table next to a glass window that offers a view of the kitchen. We were nicely served by a waiter named Alex. It took nearly an hour for our pies -- The Classic and Chicago Special -- to arrive, but that's expected when you order Chicago-style pizza. Boy howdy, it was worth the wait. From a presentation standpoint, the pizzas appeared well prepared and baked just right. Flavor wise, I understood why my brother said that lots of people who arrive at O'Hare tend to come here after they get on the Kennedy (that's I-90 for those of who aren't from Chicago). The cheese in The Classic (sausage, mushrooms, green peppers and onions) and Chicago Special (pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers and onions) is fresh, plentiful, and thankfully, didn't burn the roof of my mouth. It blended well with the sauce and the toppings in each. Each slice was massive to where I was full after at least three forkfuls. When it comes to favorites between the two, I pick The Classic since I enjoyed it the most. I'll add that the Special is like the Italian Beef, the sandwich that's famous around these parts, in pizza form. Before I forget, I should mention that we started our lunch with wings and calamari. I didn't touch the calamari, but I sure couldn't get enough of the wings. That's possibly why I was stuffed (no pun intended) a few minutes into diving into the pizza. I suggest that potential diners request for Alex. The guy practically moved Heaven and Earth to make sure we were alright. He refilled our glasses, gave extra napkins and shared updates on the pizzas. If you have a trip to Chicago in your future and your flight is bound for O'Hare, add this Giordano's to your itinerary.

    How about a ZERO…read more This is a fresh review as we left about 20 mins ago to another restaurant. We arrived here as we have many times in the past. 5:10 Friday evening not busy. We were seated. As we sat a family came in, another couple and a large group. They all arrived after we did and were tended to immediately. We waited 10 mins and still no one so that's when I decided I'll go eat at a place that wants to feed me. Two servers talking in the corner doing nothing What a crock. Hey managers of this restaurant. Get your staffs heads out of their butts and wake them up. I've spent alot of money in here over the years between family and friends get together. That ends today
