Deep dish pizza with pepperoni and black olives.
Ashley J.

Love ordering from here. Wings were spicy hot and ranch dressing was not bad. Pizza was the best! The crust was buttery. The pizza sauce was perfect. The BBQ beef was tasty The BBQ sauce is tangy. The delivery driver was friendly. It was much cheaper than expected.

OMG!! I love CPA! It's my first stop every time I come to Chicago and it never fails. The best pizza by far. Freshest ingredients and Midwest cheese that I just can't get in L.A. Definitely recommend this spot if you're ever in in my home town. The service is great and you'll want to end the meal with either a brownie or chocolate chunk cookie!!!

Not too bad! Ordered deliver, came pretty quick. The pizza was pretty good too. I didn't like the crust too much and there definitely wasn't enough sauce but it was pretty average. I don't think I'll be ordering from here again but it really wasn't horrible.

Visted Woodfire after a business colleague recommend the restaurant…read more My wife and another couple made dinner reservations on 1/17/26, for 6 PM. We arrived promptly at 5:50 PM and were told by the hostess that our table would be ready shortly. I will say the restaurant was packed with families enjoying dinner. We were seated at approximately 6:20 PM when multiple tables opened up. While waiting for our table I noticed the various dishes being served to the tables in my viewing area. They smelled amazing and appeared to have very generous portions (leftovers). We were seated and our waitress Dalena M, quickly came to our table for our adult beverage selection. I ordered a Cozy Sweater beer, which was too light of a beer for my liking. Our friends ordered a red glass of wine and a lemon martini. For our appetizers we ordered Grilled Octopus, which was cooked to perfection. For our main entrees, I ordered a Fields of wheat chicken & bacon Ranch pizza & my wife ordered a Margherita pizza. Again, both pizzas were cooked to perfection. I was a bit jealous as I also have a woodfired pizza oven from Italy in my backyard, but unfortunately mine dough never tastes this delicious. For dessert my wife ordered Affogato (which is he go-to dessert) which was delicious. I ordered a coffee and strawberry cheesecake. The coffee was very good, and the cheesecake was very creamy and not dry. We are planning on returning with our adult children and their spouses.

Woodfire fits naturally into the heart of Dundee -- relaxed, welcoming, and easy to enjoy.

The pasta and appetizers are solid across the board, and the drinks round out the experience nicely. It's the kind of neighborhood spot that may not try to overreach, but consistently delivers a good time and a satisfying meal.

Good thin crust pizza. Basic tomato sauce was familiar-tasting (hot enough sage?), lotsa mozzarella…read morecheese (the extra cheese makes a better slice @10 minutes than 5 minutes after service), at the table cause it as kinda thick when first served. Also will be great leftover lunch/brunch - was our plan so we got big-ish pizzas). Good thin crust. I'm hyper critical on crust, so call that a big compliment. We'll be back. (And we're Lou's routine customers, so if I order a 2nd pizza from you it's a big deal). They've decorated beautifully for the season. Lovely. The party room looks awesome, I'd love to know it's happily used for lotsa fun Elgin events . Tomato & mozz salad underwhelming. But a good healthy addition to everything we were ordering even if mediocre. Heavens sake we need fresh veges sometimes Mom loved the crispy onion rings & the dressing (our appetizer). It was all about making her happy - and extra crispy onion rings with plenty of dip = happiness The holiday decorations plus lotsa Taxidermy kinda odd but Mom was fascinated. If she's happy I'm thrilled. Overall. Giant space in South Elgin. Lovely. Pizza was very well priced. Our server was awesome esp my Mom's obvious dementia impacting her public food activity (shoot, I can't remember our servers name - but she was obviously a pro & handled my family, I'd be happy to hang out with her again). Near Gail Borden Library South Elgin branch - I'd happily spend a couple hours there....

Service is very slow, on the waiter side. The food was very good and came out very quickly!

It still took my order but I had no confirmation and felt like I was going in blind. I placed the order and it said it would be ready in 1 hr 15 min. I ordered $100 worth of pizza including the pan pizza. I knew it would take longer because the menu said so. Went to pick up. Customer service wasn't even average. The young girl working was miserable. No hi, how are you, smile, or customer service period. Just hit me with the old, what's the name on the order. I told her and she says it's going to be an additional 25 min. Was not happy to hear considering the weather was getting worse outside and I had 6 other people waiting on me for dinner. I waited inside an additional 35 minutes until the order was finally done. I understand it was a Saturday night and football was on, but, like another Yelper posted below, let the customer know ahead of time. Have the system update and let folks know it will be a longer wait. While I was waiting for the order, someone called in asking where their pizza was. There was confusion amongst the staff and the customer on phone was told the driver was finally on the way. That explained a lot right there. Seems this is a common issue. The pizza was not correct as ordered. Ended up with different toppings than what we had originally ordered but everyone had waited 2 hours to eat so we just ate it. The pizza is OK. A friend recommended this place and honestly, there's so many better choices in the Chicagoland area. I don't think I'll be back! If you do order- beware of wait times!

Ok look, the pizza is great here. I can't complain. The issue is when they get busy on a Friday's,…read more the 1 hour wait is a 2 hour wait, so plan for it. They work very hard to keep up with all of the orders coming in. So,"Hats off" to them. I would only recommend they do drills during down time. From the time an order is called in, to the time it is placed in that warmer. There should be a calculation for this time during a very bust time. Then have your team stick to it. If they do we'll for the weekend, they should be granted 2 free pizzas at anytime during a week span. Employee morale will go up. They will work hard for you. Be honest with the customer. If its 2 hours, tell them just that. Let them choose. As for me and my house, we love your pizza, and will order it as often as possible.

Checked out this bar and pizza place in Elgin. Danny's On Douglas is probably the best place to get…read morepizza in the city around here. It especially is true Mondays. A lot of good value if coming at the right time of course. They also have the required beers and cocktails, to go along with pizza and other Italian-American classics and favorites. Basically it has a bar type of atmosphere. It's got the long bar to sit at along with some tables inside and on a patio. They weren't crowded the last time here thankfully. A pretty basic drink menu with lots of beers. It's about $7 for a basic cocktail. They have a few whiskeys. It's about $18 for a medium pizza. They add a bit for each topping. Go Mondays. Pizzas will be half off. Our pizzas came out crispy. They have typical toppings along with local favorites such as giardiniera. Great stuff as far as pizza along with everything else. It's of course located on Douglas, at Kimball. The drinks are as popular as the eats, while there's a lot more to munch on than just pizza.

I was surprised how big it is inside. We were there on Saturday night and it wasnt too busy inside. We ended up with a party of 12. I reviewed the menu and saw that the variety of fried veggies looked like a great starter. The price was very reasonable. My friend ordered the epically huge pretzel with cheese sauce. I ordered a large cheese pizza which my daughter and the other dancers wanted. My friend also ordered a large philly cheesesteak pizza. The apps came out fairly quickly and the fried veggie assortment was pretty good. The breading was crunchy. The fried zucchini was awesome as were the mushrooms. it comes with two dipping sauces ranch and tomato sauce. Next was the cheese pizza. It was nice and hot. It is cur in squares which is similar to a place in Indiana called pizza king. They use a lot of cheese and it tasted great. It was pretty good. The crust is dry and thin I call it more like a cracker. The cheesesteak pizza was great too. Had cheese wizz around the perimeter and regular cheese in the middle. Note there is no red sauce on this pizza. Service during the visit was attentive and reasonably fast. I thought the value was excellent. Also I had a bite of the giant pretzel it is a real winner wish I had ordered a few beers to wash it down.
