    Sausage
    Sarah S.

    This is a hard one to write! The couple running this truck seems very nice and they're fellow Chicagoans...But the food just fell flat for me. Deep dish is a Chicago staple and if you say you are doing your pizza Chicago style, it needs to live up to that statement. My friend and I ordered a pizza when the truck was outside my apartment complex. We ordered ahead so our pizza was hot and ready when we picked it up. The pizza itself was unfortunately not mouth-wateringly delicious. First things first, the pizza was quite small & not quite deep enough for the $20 price tag. This is more than the deep dishes back in Chicago for bigger pies. The crust was a big issue for us. A signature part of deep dishes is the buttery thick crust. The crust at Chi-Pie has a cornmeal element to it which was cool for a piece of it, but after a second piece we weren't loving it and didn't even eat the crust. It was so sad because back home the crust is my favorite part! The sauce was thin and watery, perhaps the tomatoes were not strewn completely and this caused the entire pizza to be super soggy. The undercarriage of the crust was soaked and didn't hold up when lifted up to eat. That's another thing, deep dish is usually a fork and knife food. This was thin and didn't cut well so it was more of a lift-up-to-your-mouth type pizza. The cheese was very tasty and enjoyable but not thick enough for a deep dish. Plus it was not gooey and nomz but solid without a cheesy pull. Now the sausage was disappointing. It had good flavor but it was sparse on our pizza. Sausage is a HUGE deal in Chicago, we were the meat packing capital for 100 years starting in 1865. If you get a sausage pie, it should be packed with meat. And even better? If it has the signature sheet of sausage which goes over the entire pie instead of small pieces. I am not writing Chi-Pie completely off as I think they can make a few improvements and be stellar! If they didn't call the pizza Chicago style, I probably would add a star to my rating but touting it as that and for what it was - just doesn't work. I'll give them another try in the future with high hopes.

    I love pizza! Who doesn't, right? Being from Chicago, I am always on the search for the best Chicago deep dish pizza. It's a challenge to find a good deep dish pie outside of Chicago. The two major pizza chains in Chicago are Giordano's and Lou Malnati's. I have had my share of the dense cheesy goodness and I hold them both to the highest standards. Chi-Pie however is not a restaurant! They are a food truck. The owners work off of the truck and they are a husband and wife team from Chicago. Very friendly. The pizza does takes about 45 minutes to an hour to make, so be prepared before ordering. We have only tried the large pepperoni and mushroom deep dish. (Pairs great with an adult beverage) Let's talk pizza. To start, the crust is golden brown, buttery, soft and flaky, and it has a taste of corn bread. It has a sweet taste. The tomato sauce is also sweet and tangy. The pizza itself is very heavy and loaded with cheese. It has a thick, dense, gooey mozzarella which makes for an epic "Cheese Pull". Be prepared, if you have never experienced a deep dish pizza, it can seem overwhelming. I only have one small issue that can easily be fixed. Our pizza seems to always soak through the bottom of the pizza box it is served in before we can get it home. A quick fix would be to get pizza box linings or a thicker box. That is not stopping us from ordering again, though. We follow them on Instagram and try to order when they are in our area. Pro tip: When you pick up your pizza, place it on the floor board of your car or you'll end up with greasy seats. Support the bottom of the box. Just in case.

    A food truck that sells Chicago style deep dish pizza hence the name Chi-Pie. I've already tried them twice. First time when they were parked in a brewery near my work and second, during the Pizza fest in Hollywood this year.. When I saw on Instagram the epic cheese pulls on their pizza, I decided to check them out. Bought a slice of deep dish pizza which was really thick but I was bummed that no cheese pull happened. I actually posted a comment and they replied back that cheese pulls don't happen all the time which to me sounded like an issue with consistency. During the pizza fest, I'd like to commend them for sticking around later than most vendors to serve all the customers lining up in their stall and serving the biggest portion of pizza than anyone else. However due to the mad rush, pizza was a bit undercooked but I don't hold it against them considering the situation. The people working here are friendly and nice. Hats off to them for starting this business to earn a decent living but as a newcomer, there's still lots to improve on which is expected of anyone who's just starting from scratch. May I suggest for other reviewers to please be considerate by offering constructive criticism rather than completely writing them off? Let's give them and every small businesses a fair chance to succeed. Thank you.

    Spectacular! My wife and I have ordered from these guys multiple times. It's definitely better with more toppings! The sauce is soooooo good! Nice thick cornmeal crust! The company itself is super friendly and goes the extra mile of ensuring customer satisfaction. If you haven't tried Chi-Pie than you are really missing out!!!!

However, only a tiny fraction of these pop-ups boasts a substantial crowd -- unsurprisingly, the bustling operations tend to be among the best. One popular taqueria is Tacos Tamix, a mini-fleet of loncheras specializing in Mexico City-style al pastor. Gone are Tamix's streetside trombos, but the Tamix trucks still have sizeable queues late into the night. I first visited the Picu-Union truck on Hoover. The taxi-yellow lonchera and its vibrant LED lights pop out against an otherwise dimly lit block. Parking within the Mobil gas station lot is like a game of Tetris. Metal folding chairs and pop-up tables are scattered underneath E-Z Up canopies. Order numbers, shouted out over the intercom, occasionally break the hum of street traffic. A security guard watches over the operation. We arrived for a late weekend dinner, and Tamix maintained a steady stream of customers. We were able to order quickly, and our food was prepared within 10 minutes. We tried multiple Tacos con Queso (Al Pastor, Asada, and Chorizo), as well as Mulitas (Carnitas). The palm-sized tortillas were sprinkled with a moderate portion of meat and an even layer of crispy cheese. Of the meats, I was most impressed by the juicy, flavorful al pastor; however, I was surprised that the taco was not garnished with pineapple. Meanwhile, I found the remaining proteins to be tasty but dry. Otherwise, the tacos were clearly superior to Tamex's sad excuse for mulitas, which were bogged down by flimsy and soggy (rather than crispy and fried) tortillas. Our bill ran $15 (relatively reasonable by LA taqueria standards nowadays), of which half belonged to the disappointing mulitas. While the late-night hours were a major plus, only the taco al pastor was memorably enjoyable; otherwise, the lackluster menu isn't worth a visit out of your way.

    Misnomer. When I saw the name of this food truck, I thought this might be Central American's "soul"…read morefood, but it was actually US Southern soul food with a little Latin twist. The only Latin American ingredients were tortilla, store-bought chips and their mango salsa (which was good). I like the idea of putting southern food in tortilla for convenient, food-truck dining, but I would expect a bit more blending of the two cuisines with its name. Zora Neale's Special: perfectly seasoned and grilled tilapia with greens (kale) and Mac n' cheese for $12. They serve it in a hamburger styrofoam box, so it looks rather small, but they load it and are very generous with the portions! I couldn't finish it in one sitting. I must say the greens and Mac n' cheese were quite salty, though. 3 Taco Special: your choice of chicken, beef brisket, fish and/or oxtail(!), which comes with store-bought chips and their mango salsa for $12. Each taco is regularly priced at $4. They allow you to order different kinds of meat per order, which is nice, but they didn't have oxtail at this time. :( The beef brisket was good, but again, a tad on the salty side. For sides, I tried the plantain chips and sweet potato fries. The plantain chips were not chips at all, but fried plantains, which were delicious, but we expected chips. The sweet potato fries were crispy and seasoned just right. I also ordered what I thought was watermelon juice, but it was really sugary lemonade with a few pieces of watermelon in it. Again, not what I was expecting. :/ The staff working in the truck was really nice, though, and tried to get orders out quickly.

It's called the Maya-a. The meat is a tangy sweet bbq sauce with delicious tender pulled pork on top of well done mac n cheese and jalapeno cornbread underneath. I'm still dreaming of the next time I can order this deliciousness!!
