There is a lot of pizzerias to choose from in Chicago and this place is pretty good place to start. I don't care much for a pan of stuffed pizza and this place has really good hand tossed buttery crust! This location is a bit small so if you have a large party it's probably not a good place for that, you might want to check out their Montrose location. read more

Chicago's Pizza - Cheese & sausage classic - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

See all

nicest employees ever. very respectful and excellent in customer service. coming again soon! :)

Thought we'd try someplace different in hopes of discovering a new favorite place. It beats Dominos. Barely. Thin crust has so much dough. It's more like focaccia. Somewhere between Sicilian and Thin but no way is this Chicago thin crust. I was done after a slice. That actually was the first clue, it was cut into slices not squares. Your relatives from North Dakota might like it. Chicagoans, you will be disappointed. Obviously did not find a new favorite place for pizza. The only list that this place made was places never to order from again. read more

Chicago's Pizza - Large 14" Thin Crust Cheese Pizza. Dough overload - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Five stars for the gluten-free deep dish. I've searched high and low folks. This is the best Chicago-style GF pizza that you will find. When I lived in the city I searched high and far. I did Lou's meat crust (which I think my arteries can handle my eating once every two years), Giordano's GF thin crust, and Edwardo's GF thin crust, and all of that were just satisfactory. Enough that you feel a part of what the rest of the group and not mowing on salad while everyone else digs into deep dish. But this, this Chicago's Pizza, is the real deal. The crust is thick, buttery, deep dish goodness that one can hardly believe is gluten free. Sauce has a lovely, roasted tomato and oregano flavor with plenty of cheesy deliciousness. In addition, you can actually get two sizes of GF deep dish which is extraordinarily rare in the sans wheat, barley, and rye community. Delivery, dine in and carry out all available. read more

The other time I had pizza here was deep dish and I could literally feel my arteries clogging as I ate it so I was reluctant to try this. But someone ordered it in so I ate it. It was delicious! We got the 4 cheese pizza; mozzarella, fontina, smoked gouda, and Romano cheese, fresh sliced tomatoes, basil and olive oil. The crust was good too, not too salty and not too heavy in your stomach when you're done. I don't know if it was the fact that it was free, that I was hungry, or that it really was just that great...but I'll go with the fact that the pizza really was that good. I don't know if I would make a special visit for this pizza next time I'm here, but if I'm in the neighborhood I'll definitely be stopping by. read more

Terrible. Awful. Unacceptable. These are all words to describe Chicago's Pizza and Pasta. I wrote a haiku for the occasion. It goes: Why always empty? Despite late night food options, Because this place sucks. or Once was promising. Failed to deliver the goods. Unacceptable. read more

Ok, this a review for Chicago's Pizza on Irving, however, I did not TRY their pizza. I went in for something else, and they happened to have it, and offered online ordering and was directly on the way to my final destination. Now, the problem does not lie in the food. Admittedly, the food was great. (And, as a result of my pending rant, the food was warm and very fresh) The service, however, sucked - bad. I ordered a salad and a sandwich, for pick up at 7:30pm. I happened to arrive about 10-15 minutes early (I wasn't expecting to get my food when I walked into the door) and immediately I paid. However, my food did not come out until AFTER 7:30pm. Alright, I understand if it was busy - and they had a lot of orders and were going in the order of which they were received, but no - the place was dead. There was no one eating inside, the phone rang once - and the entire staff was sitting up front just watching TV or chatting. Now, I wonder if I would have walked in off the streets if I would have gotten my food quicker - instead of ordering online. Seriously, how long does it take to throw a salad together and make a sandwich? read more

So, I am moving into my new place in Irving Park and my mom and I are starving. My new neighbor gives me a menu for Chicago Pizza we order expecting regular ole pizza....um OUR mistake. As someone who is from the South I am not involved in the Chicago vs NY style pizza. All I can say is that this pizza was good. The veggies were fresh. The thin crust was crispy and my appetite was satisfied. I love my new neighborhood!! Now let me go and find that pizza menu :-) read more

I don't follow any rules about ceasing food consumption past 7 pm. Certainly no rules are followed about carbs either. So when my cousin asked me if I wanted late night pasta, my answer was ABSOLUTLEY From what I've been told about this small chain, they are known for their pizza, hence their name, but no justice has been given to their vast array on their menu. In fact, dinner mate said that her favorite item on the menu was their California sandwich wrap. Hmmm. No healthy items ordered this evening! We started off with their house bread, served warm, nice consistency. She's tried a majority of the appetizers off their menu, so we opted for something new and different: the goat cheese dip, accompanied with the fairly big sized crostini to slather the goodness onto. For our meal, I had the tortilini with shrimp and cream sauce, chock full of veggies, and too many red peppers for my liking! Red peppers pushed off to the side, the dish was still delicious. We split the carrot cake for dessert. Dense and moist, this piece was smothered in delicious, soft cream cheese frosting. Nothing worse than having type of frosting be hard as nails. Perfect amount of sweetness. The place has a nice chill vibe. I wouldn't label it as down home Italian feel, but it's just a laid back place for a quick late night bite with two people dining or a large group. They deliver late as well. Staff were very nice and service was swift read more

I'm not sure if people are being uber sensitive in some cases, or don't have taste at all, but I have been ordering from them since they opened a few years ago and things are usually great. *Only major problem I have with this location is that the "Open til 5am everyday" isn't always the case. I have tried to get delivery at 12:30a during the week and no answer - luckily another location delivered because they were closed early. Other than that, food is always good, no problems with billing, delivery in under an hour as promised. Many times they now throw in some flatbread slices and marinara for free. The meals are great. I usually get the Rigatoni Gorgonzola. Bleu cheese, thick cream sauce, spinach, and chicken basically. The pasta is always cooked properly, the bleu cheese isn't over powering in this dish. Chicken is usually tender, as they are chunks or small pieces of chicken breast layed on top. A soup/salad and bread is included. The bread is always fresh - I have never gotten a stale "mini loaf". I usually opt for a cream based soup of the day, although sometimes they taste a bit salty and may be a bit lumpy - about 80% of the time it is very good though, and hearty. Last Christmas time they gave me a Chicago's Pizza glass filled with candies with my delivery - which was a nice touch - and maybe another treat, I don't remember. I just ordered tonight and they gave me a couple of nice sized short bread cookies in single pizza containers with Happy Holidays on them. I like nice little things like this - shows they care about customers. They always have coupons for free soda and I just ordered from them through GrubHub and their ETA was 12:25am, and I just checked my phone as to when he called up, and it was 12:25a - so pretty darn good if you ask me. They also honored the free pop coupon via GrubHub.com. I have eaten there before and had many of their dishes. Their pasta dishes are decently priced considering $8 can get you a pasta dish of decent portion, a soup, and bread - a $10 order will get you a free 1 liter too, so not too bad. Their chocolate mousse cake is very good as well, though it could be a bit thicker. I don't remember what cheesecake brand they use, but they have very good cheescake too, although expensive at almost $6 a slice - but very filling and not an Eli's sized slice. Their regular pizzas are good and I love their deep dish. Although, not as good as some others out there, still very tasty. **I order a couple funky ingredients in my DD and they do it - I recommend: Ask for a deep dish and IN the pizza the ground beef topping and bleu cheese crumbles. It tastes like a bleu cheese burger - STRONG, but delish!** I hope this helped some people!! Go CHICAGO!! (pizza) Nick read more

They lied saying that you'll get a free pizza if you ordered but didn't tell me that over the phone if you are a half of two different toppings does the word no longer be a free pizza read more

Their claim that they deliver until 5 am is hogwash. We called at 1 am and the phone just rang off the hook. Called back fifteen minutes later and let it ring dozens of times. No answer. FALSE ADVERTISING! Plus, their food is overpriced and mediocre. read more

Their avocado chicken salad is delicious, they are a bit pricy. Pizza is not bad at all, they also sell it by the slice. Their chicken caesar salad is great, they also have a vinaigrette house dressing that is just perfect. I usually order take out and I have never had a problem, their also give you free buffalo wings with any order over $20 which is not bad. The wings are a little spicy but the blue cheese helps. read more

The years I lived and worked in the East Lakeview area, I frequented Chicago's on Sheffield. Now that I live in the suburbs, I'm unable to order as often as I used to. I'm fortunate that there's a Chicago's on Irving Park. It's located next to the Snap Fitness where my boyfriend is a member. When I have overnight visits at his place and he decides to go the gym in the evening, he'll place an order before his workout and pick it up after he finishes. Nothing I've ever ordered has been a disappointment. We have different opinions about their pizzas. He prefers to avoid them; I like their thin crust. Their late hours, pizza by the slice and gourmet appetizers are some of my favorite things. My absolute favorite item on their menu is the Queso de Cabra. It's warm goat cheese with tomato sauce and never enough bread for dipping so we always ask for extra. Well, it's1:20am. He just got home so it's time to snack on the gourmet appetizer before I fall asleep. read more

A lot of whiners about this place, but I don't get it. I'm a picky eater and I've ordered delivery from this place multiple times and have never been disappointed. We've ordered pizza, ribs, soup, chicken tenders, random appetizers, cheeseburgers, so many different items and I've always thought they were great. Now don't get me wrong, it's not the best pizza I've ever had, it's not the best ribs I've ever had, but my expectations weren't mind blowing ribs. I just wanted damn good food and that's what you get with Chicago's pizza. It's open super late as well, so stop your complaining and enjoy some good food. read more

Great place to grab some pizza as you may have guessed. The main reason I frequent here is the extensive GF menu. They even offer, wait for it, GF deep dish! Prayers=answered. The deep dish is also probably the best option here as luck would have it. The regular square GF pizza is also good, not great, But usually satisfies my pizza craving. Haven't had the calzone or sandwiches yet, but soon enough. Tried a few different salads, They were unimaginative and very basic. I wouldn't recommend them. The goal here is pizza! If you are looking for a slice or a whole pie, I would urge you to check it out. You could do much worse, trust me. read more

My wife and I just moved to the area, and were so excited to see that Chicago's Pizza was just a couple blocks away. We frequent their location on Montrose, and love their thin-crust "Chicago Vegetarian" with no mushrooms. We've been to the Irving location 3 times now, and though the food is the same, the service is TERRIBLE! Most of the staff stands around chatting, and basically ignores us. We went on a Saturday around 5:00pm, and we were the only eat-in customers. That didn't make any difference. The busboy gave us more service than our waitress. She disappeared for the entirety of our meal! From now on, we're driving to the Montrose location. read more

Giving 4 stars for overall service, day after the blizzard and I didn't want to drive since my side streets are still full of snow. Ordered a supreme which came hot, with a ton of cheese on it and delivered on a day where the roads are still pretty crappy. I've bought from here before but I'll be doing it more often since the quality was good and very pleased with everything. read more

Wow! Just order a small pizza w/ green onions, pepperoni, basil, &garlic AND boneless wings.... these are fiiiiiiiiya! The pizza was so flavorful & the boneless wings were crunchy and meaty! We ordered a cup of Chili Garlic sauce too & it was really good! Fast delivery. I'm impressed. read more

1/2021 First time going here. Ordered take out for the family. It was ok. Not great pizza. Toppings were good and plentiful. Cheese was pretty good. Crust was a bit doughy for us. We prefer even thinner thin crust than theirs. Some of the kids said they prefer Domino's. I would go here first over Domino's, but have definitely had better pizza from many places. We may return, but for now we will still be looking for something better in the neighborhood. read more

We gave Chicago's Pizza a third try, once again ordering a gluten-free pizza and a regular pizza on the side. The regular pizza was the Grecian Delight and it was pretty good. Nice pesto, and they didn't skimp on the goat cheese. The gluten-free pizza was the Chicago Special Stuffed Pizza and it was ok. The crust was soggy on the bottom, but well-formed along the top exposed edges. The crust tasted pretty heavily of garbanzo/soy, but that's not uncommon. The ingredients inside were fresh tasting. So on try three, Chicagos Pizza got it right, more or less. read more

We got a "The Gilroy Pizza" and mozzarella sticks We liked the pizza but didn't really like the mozzarella sticks. The other locations are open for delivery until 5 AM, so that's cool. If you are looking to eat in, it is BYOB, but the dining room is rather small. read more

This location is just as good as the Montrose location. The stuffed spinach pizza is my favorite stuffed spinach pizza we've ever had. The thin crust is also so good it often makes its way into our order as well. We'd order from here a lot more often if only they had a location closer to Logan Square or delivered to us. read more

I love this place. Great go-to for my gluten free pizza needs. I usually order from this location for lunch, as they deliver to my work place. Love it! I will go out of my way to go to Chicago's if I'm craving pizza. As I like to reiterate, it's always awesome to be able to eat like a normal person. My friends get their regular pizza, and I get my gluten free one! The small is enough if I'm absolutely starving, I'll finish the whole thing and be satisfyingly stuffed. Or, eat almost the whole thing and still have a few good pieces to eat the next day for breakfast or lunch. Yes, glutards CAN still eat pizza for breakfast! read more

I really enjoy Chicago's for takeout! Their menu is massive and the food is really good. I really recommend their deep dish. Really good alternative to Gino's East or Lou Malnati's. Prices are not that bad. I have never eaten in for dinner but the tables are clean and ready to go. If you have someone that is a picky eater, go to Chicago's! read more

Chicago's is ok. I've only ever done take-out or delivery. The thick crust is what I usually order, but it is a rarity since it's so much food-I really have to be in the mood for it. The thin crust is good, but the price (for me) is too expensive for what you get. The delivery service is usually pretty good, but rarely takes less than 1 hr. The people are usually not too bad, but can be curt. read more

I about dreams about Chicago's pizza. You can get a slice (they have thin or deep dish), reasonable prices. There's even coupons for BOGO. I believe there's 3 locations, all good ambiance if you want to eat in. I've never had bad pizza here. read more

I think a review of CP should be short & sweet. I feel bad for living in the area for a while and taking so long to test it out. My favorite thing here is quality pizza by the slice. Some nights I have late hours going home so picking up some pizza. Chicago's Pizza does a great job keeping fresh pizza by the slice available compared to other places that seem to keep pizza spinning around until it celebrates a birthday. Stuffed - solid! Go pepperoni Thin/hand tossed - also solid! any normal toppings will do. read more

Was there on a Friday night. Very nice decor. Small but comfortable. The deep dish pizza was great. Also had a California salad that was delicious! The staff was very nice and attentive. Will definitely be back. read more

Delivery review: Our go-to spot for most things because there aren't really any tasty spots that deliver to our home. The ribs, wings, chicken strips, queso de cabra, tuscan panini, border turkey wrap, philly steak sandwich, and the burgers are pretty good. I do agree that the prices are high especially when you add a side. Easy 3 stars. I'm giving 4 stars because our food arrived on time but they didn't package the condiments right and the side of buffalo sauce spilled all over my children's fries and all in the bag. We called immediately and when transferred to the manager she apologized and asked what we wanted to do (we assumed-money back or replace damaged food) Another apology and 30 minutes later, delivery of our clean fries and properly packaged sauce was at our door(gratis). Delivery driver also apologized. I can appreciate the apologies and the issue being addressed. 4 stars. read more

I always look forward to Wed when im ordering for lunch at work. They usually have the most amazing cream of spinach soup. That and an order of french fries to dip and im done! Seriously i crave this soup all week. The pasta and pizza are extremely good as well. After all its CHICAGOS~! besides for maybe 1 bad experience, the staff is always friendly. read more

This review may be updated. Right now it's an average. Our first delivery experience was a solid 5 stars. Prompt, hot, and really, REALLY tasty. We haven't had pizza, but the selection of appetizers, sandwiches, soups and salads we have sampled were delicious. Their menu is huge, and while it's a little bit more than I'm usually willing to spend, it's not a disastrous splurge. Last time was a complete disaster. One star. Seriously. Our food took an hour and 40 minutes to get here, which was 50 minutes longer than the original estimate. Completely, absolutely unacceptable. They're literally 10 blocks from here, and I remind you we did not order pizza. What the freak happened?? There was no apology made by the person we talked to at the restaurant to find out where our food had disappeared to, and no apology by the delivery guy. Or even acknowledgement that it had been nearly TWO HOURS since the order was placed. I was so hungry I was just opening our cabinets and eating whatever I saw. Handfuls of dry cereal. (What? We ordered in BECAUSE there was no other food in the house. Don't judge.) My veggie sandwich was soggy - like, waterlogged soggy. Which is a terrible thing to do to a sandwich with grilled eggplant, roasted red pepper, fresh mozz and pesto -- the bread should be crisp and chewy. The whole thing was a mess. And they forgot Boyfriend's salad, although they did include the dressing. They had to send someone back out with it. They get one more chance, because the menu is expansive and the food, when it actually gets to you, if it gets there in one piece, is exceptionally good. But I'm still kind of amazed that no one even apologized or offered a coupon or a dessert or freaking anything. Seriously. Come on, guys. read more

Pizza is so good! One slice is enough to fill me up. Good amount of tomato sauce and cheese. Crust is delicious. Recommend this pizza to anyone. A two topping deep dish pizza for 25 bucks. read more

I was introduced to this restaurant via a coupon I received in a move-in package when I rented a new apartment in 2004 and I've been enjoying their pizza and other dishes ever since! Online ordering is a breeze, the thin crust pizza is perfectly seasoned and has tons more cheese than any other place I've tried, and is competitively priced. I most frequently order the Chicago Special--Italian Sausage, Green Pepper, Onion, and Mushroom--and their Italian Sausage is the best I've had in Chicago, with just the right amount of fennel flavor, and not overly spicy. Their burgers, pasta dishes, salads, and sub sandwiches are great; I love their Bar-b-que sandwich that includes a monster onion ring on a generous portion of bar-b-que, all on a soft bun. They even manage to include good desserts, which I've found to be a rarity among pizza-centric restaurants. I've enjoyed all their cheesecake variations, their cannoli, rice pudding, and their carrot cake. Desserts are a little pricey, so I don't order them every time, but I'm never disappointed when I do. In all this time, delivery has been delayed exactly ONCE. (A new driver didn't know their way around Chicago and I live on a one-way street that is most easily accessible via another one-way street; otherwise, you wind up driving around multiple blocks to get here.) Whenever there's been an issue such as coupons not working online, it's quickly resolved via phone and/or email, and I've never been left feeling disappointed or unsatisfied. Their Pizza Points system is a great way to earn $10 off an order. Being on their mailing list gets me notices of special discounts (which are generally weekly when a Chicago sports team of any sort is competing). Absent those, there are great online coupons that vary according to the order total which include everything from free sodas to free pizzas. read more

So I have lived in Lakeview a long time and have been a patron of Chicagos Pizza in that neighborhood since moving there, with nothing but exceptional service, I went in and bought pizza by the slice, I ordered burgers to be delivered to my apt... which was like 3 blocks away... great service every time. So my girlfriend lives by Irving Park location and I am going to her place for the weekend, I ask if she has eaten and she says she has, and I am like "cool ill pick up something on the way" So I decide to pop into Chicagos Pizza, and I walk in their is only one behind the counter person and he is on the phone... he puts down the phone and since im just planning to get pizza by the slice i start telling him my order, he walks to the pizza they have then walks back to the phone... cuz apparently he was telling them what they have... but did not acknowledge me... So he hangs up the phone i ask what they have he is like " sausage pepperoni and cheese" so I am like "2 sausage"... "oh i guess i just sold those" "oh ok then the 2 pepperoni" Then this MF'er hears me say that and takes one of the pizzas on the rack to the back... and i wait... and i wait... so i probably waited a minute and a half but at this point... mother fer i am trying to get pizza by the slice and my time for being in this place is wayyyyyy over 10 minutes. So he has not returned, so I walk out. And I will not go back to this location again... cuz while im sure everything he did he had a good reason too... all he had to do was say, "sorry on the phone""oh shit i just sold those" "oh fuck sorry, someone just bought this whole pizza so i need to disappear for a weirdly long amount of time" and id be fine... but no communication, The person behind the counter really made me feel like i was his least concern. Which from my experience from the Lakeview one, is way different. But I am planning to move to Irving Park semi soon, and while this location is close to where I am moving, I will not bother getting a slice from here, cuz this location is SHIT. read more

I only get delivery. I can tell you the Veggie and the Mexican pizzas we ordered today were EXCELLENT!!! 5 stars! However, the Pesto Lover's Pizza I ordered last time was incredibly disgusting! MINUS 1 star! Only one because we also ordered the stuffed sausage which was very good. Pizza arrived within Grubhub promised time - 45 min. Yeah! read more

Pretty awesome pizza place that is just around the corner from my apartment. The place is a small cozy restaurant with 1 TV that I have never seen on times that I have been there. If you are eating in you get some free bread which is always a plus and it seemed like every 3 minutes the waitress would come and refill my water. Also the place is BYOB so you can bring your drink of choice and not get charged an arm and a leg. The food selection is giant!! And the topics to choose for a pizza is like 2 or 3 times as many choices than your average pizza joint. Overall this is my new go to place for pizza... just hope I can take some time to check out other items on there giant menu read more

I really like this place, and I'm surprised that it doesn't have better reviews. While I've never been inside this restaurant, my husband and I have ordered delivery from here quite a few times. We've never been disappointed. Their pizza's good. I've had the Chicago Supreme Pizza, which has pepperoni, green peppers, mushrooms and onions. Tasty! I've also had the Chicken Caesar Wrap, which has grilled chicken, lettuce, tomatoes and Caesar dressing. My husband has ordered a cheeseburger from Chicago's Pizza, and he says it's really good. I've also had the cheese fries here. Delish! The ordering process online is easy, and our delivery always arrives early. The pizza is tasty, but don't be afraid to venture outside of pizza and try some of their sandwiches and burgers. Recommend! read more

If you're a fan of thicker than average thin crust pizza, you'll love this place. Tonight I placed my first order to check it out. The piping hot pizza delivered was pretty heavy, I checked to make sure it was thin crust and not pan. The sausage was good quality, mild and the other toppings were very flavorful. Given the thickness of the crust, I thought that it could have used a bit more tomato sauce. If this was the thin crust pizza, I have to wonder how thick the pan and stuffed pizza are? I'm sure that I'll order from here again, when the mood strikes me for thicker crust. read more

So thought I'd try it out based on yelp reviews I was sooooooo happy with the deep dish sausage. The right amount of cheese the right amount of meat. Just yummy yummy it filled up our tummy. Our server Diane was awesome she was sweet and a total delight. Will try again,". Niva read more
