Dan's Pizza is the definition of a busy neighborhood classic--always people in and out, which is a good sign that locals love it. It's a quick pick-up spot, nothing fancy, but exactly what you want when you're craving pizza! The staff were super welcoming, especially since it was our first time, and they made the experience feel personal! We went with a large pepperoni & jalapeño pizza. Flavor-wise, the sauce and cheese ratio was spot-on--tangy, cheesy, and really well balanced. The crust was the real star, perfectly crispy in the middle (which is rare to find and made every bite even better). If I had to nitpick, there were a ton of jalapeños but not quite enough pepperoni to balance it out. Still, the overall taste carried the pie, and it was definitely satisfying. All in all, a solid pizza joint with great service, and I'd for sure go back to try more of the menu! read more

We ordered delivery at Alter Brewery and it was a great call. Alter has good beer and Dans great pizza, the combo is perfect. Other than the hi decibel golf bros surrounding us it was a very good experience. They eventually mostly left and ordered a huge number of Dominos pizzas which was their loss. They have a nice covers patio with that night "live music" (I'll be kind). You can't do much about 90 degree heat and 90% humidity but that's not their fault it Illinois in the summertime. Sausage and Peperoni pizza along with Barbecue bacon onion and sausage pizza was thin crisp and delicious. Highly recommended where ever you choose to eat it. read more

Another local favorite pizza joint in my area which I had to try. This place makes cracker thin crust pizza. The toppings were fresh and sliced nice and thin. We ordered for takeout and the pizza held up surprisingly well. I can't say I loved it, but I would try it again with maybe less toppings. read more

Here's how you know this place is good if you call on a Saturday after 5 it's always going to take 1hr + for delivery. That's cause they're insanely busy because their pizzas are unreal. They don't do anything other than pizza because they don't need to. There's no sitting down or ambience to mention. This is a place you call to stop fooling around and just get a straight up legit pizza. If you're unfortunate enough to be allergic to gluten then you really need to check this place out because their gluten free crust is one of the few out there that is like real pizza. It's so good you'll think they screwed up the order with real dough. Can't say enough good things about Dan's! read more

I am very impressed with the pizzas here. My son and I ordered a sausage with jalapeno on one side. Extra crispy and extra thin crust and it was very good. We also ordered a beef and banana peppers regular crust extra crispy. It too was solid. The only issue, we ordered them both pie cut and only one was. It tarnishes the experience a bit. We even called to confirm pie cut. We will go back but probably pick up so we can check them. If the pizza wasn't as tasty I'd give this a three star review. Pie cut is the way! read more

The pizza is delicious, but when you order online they charge an extra $1 for an "online ordering fee," and they hit you up for a tip. A tip is for good personal service. I'm ordering online and paying online. All they're doing is handing a pizza across the counter to me. For that I need to pay an extra buck plus a tip? Sorry, you lost me. read more

I'm not a thin crust kinda girl, but Dan's changed my mind on that! Very delicious sauce & sausage. The kids loved the plain cheese pizza! It will be our go too from now on. read more

Nothing to complain about, but nothing to recommend - just your average Chicago thin crust pizza.

Best pizza in the entire area. Not even exaggerating. Everything about it is fantastic

Overall, I would give this place a 4.5. Plenty of parking. Takeout or delivery only. Service was good. Employees are very friendly and efficient. Prices are reasonable and moderate. I got a 12" small bbq special with mushrooms and garlic crust added. Pizza was fresh and hot when I received it. There were tons of toppings. I would have liked to see more garlic in the crust when I bite into it. Garlic flavor/smell was a little difficult to detect. Other than that, I really enjoyed the crispy crust, fresh ingredients, and the bbq sauce wasn't too overpowering. read more

Based on a neighbor's recommendation, we tried Dan's Pizza last night. We did pick up (using a $3 off coupon in the local flyers) and got a large sausage and garlic thin crust. It was hot when we picked it up and stayed hot for our drive home (yeah!). We could smell the garlic in the car and loved it! Pizza - wise, we thought it was really great. Nice garlic and sausage flavor - love the crust. A tad more greasy than what I had hoped, but I dabbed some off with a napkin. We would order from here again! read more

My new favorite pizza in Naperville. True, tavern style like I remember from childhood. Generous ingredients, perfect sauce/amount and thin crust. Many closer places, but this pizza is the best. Try it for yourself. read more

3.5 decent and lotta food but went a ways on a lot of build up and good but not a must repeat given distance.

Pizza was much better than I thought it would be. Normally I don't buy a double decker but I tried one here. It was fantastic!! Get extra sauce. You won't be disappointed! read more

Amazing sausage pizza!!! 10/10 comparable to rosati's pizza. So good and they are super fast too

Hands down best thin crust in the Lisle/DG/Woodridge area. Real high quality Chicago Tavern pizza. You can tell a quality pizza place by its ingredients. Dan's are fresh and sliced. The mushrooms are real, not canned. You can tell they don't buy prepackaged ingredients and it shows. Crust is perfect. Cook is perfect. This IS pizza. One time I got a burnt pizza from Dan's. (One mess up out of probably 100 orders read more

I have been a Dan's Pizza loyalist since I was a child. They never disappoint! Portions are excellent, the service is fast and friendly, and the store has a very warm atmosphere. I have fond memories of playing the Pacman machine waiting for my pizza. The best in Downers Grove! read more

Just got their family size thin cheese pizza- Really really good and reasonably priced. If you're a cheese pizza person this place should be on your list. Will definitely order again. read more

Excellent service there was a misunderstanding with a order and Ryan was on top of it, great tasting food & great people not your normal pie

A solid Pizza, Dan's is always on the rotation, great service and easy pickup and rarely disappoints solid all around

The pizza had good flavor. Had it delivered. The middle was soggy. I heard it was a thin cracker crust but it was definitely not crisp.

I'm so glad to find another pizza place I like in the area! They are also reasonably priced! Friendly and quick service. I tried a pepperoni double decker pizza, it's definitely unique. It's almost like two thin crust pizzas stacked with a thick crust (yet not like this at all). It molds really nicely together and I really like the dough. I would definitely get this again! I don't know if I need pepperoni on both layers though so I think I'll say "light pepperoni" next time. We also had a thin crust sausage pizza. They really do not skimp on the toppings. I tend to like less toppings so I will just ask for less next time. Overall, I like the uniqueness and great tasting food! read more

Best in the area for classic Chicago tavern style pizza. Love the sauce and cracker thin crust! Fave pizza is the BBQ -they use sausage instead of chicken and it's so good! Add giardinera if you like spicy! -30 year customer + fan. read more

Dans is by far the best take out pizza in downers grove! Been going there for years and even though the original owner isn't there anymore the new owner kept the same standards and quality as the original. If you're in the area definitely pick up a pizza. There's no where to sit and it it so be prepared to wait till you get home to tear open the pizza bag! read more

Best pizza around!! Dan's Pizza is consistently so good. Have tried other places but always come back. Great crust, sauce, everything. Their double decker pizza is amazing. read more

Good pizza. Had the thin crust, it was crispy and flavorful. Really enjoyed the sausage.

This is a carry out only facility. They picked up the phone and the order was placed without hassles. 20-minutes later we had a large sausage/mushroom pizza for a little over $20. Cut into squares, not slices. My favorite! The sauce has a nice flavor. Cheese has a nice consistency with the classic "lightly browned" over the traditional chunk sausage "balls". The crust was thin crust. All and all this was a nice pizza for the price. I would like management to switch to boxes rather than the old school Pizza Hut "bags" they are using. One the way home, the bag sagged down onto the pizza, as they always do and we lost part of the pizza to the bag. Truly a waste of good pizza. read more

Dan's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

Dans is the best pizza around. Its carryout only, but that works great for me. Pizza is always pipping hot and fresh!!

Moved to the Downers Grove area pretty recently, hasn't found a pizza place I've really liked yet. We got a new neighbor coupon from this place and decided to check it out. Very, very solid tavern style pizza. Thin crust crust, nice sauce and just the right amount of greasiness. The green peppers tasted very fresh on there, probably my favorite peppers on any pizza in Chicago. Folks were great there, kids working up front were super apologetic about the pizza not being ready when I got there, even though I showed up a few minutes early, the manager/owner was very welcoming and nice and was teaching the kids about customer service. Just a great place, if you're in the area this is is fantastic takeout place. read more

Delicious! Classic Chicagoland pizza - exactly what I was looking for! These greasy little pepperoni squares were addictive. Whatever seasoning is on top is pure GOLD. Highly recommend. Unless you're on a diet. It's impossible to eat "just one slice" read more

Dan's Pizza - Leftovers from a 14" Pepperoni pizza after the two of us ate as much as we could. Glad we didn't get the 12", I was hungry! - Pizza Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

I've only had the slices of pizza. The slices tasted good and were FRESH. That's key because often times places reheat there slices. So a slice doesn't do there actual pizza justice. With that being said if there actual pizzas taste better than there slices we might be on to something lol. The crust is thin but neither overly doughy or crunchy. They claim to be related to pappas pizza in woodridge and they have the same recipe. I disagree i can taste the difference and i prefer Dan's. read more

I work for big company and was trying to order a few pizzas for my employees to just get told that would be inconvenient for them to deliver to a safe parking lot. Then I said ok not a problem can be delivered to main building site and they just hung up on me not ok and would not recommend. Very RUDE 10/10 to not recommend. read more

Friendly people, excellent service (they brought the pizza to my car), and GREAT pizza!

We ordered pizza to take to nearby Alter Brewing for a nice "beer and pizza" outing. We ventured down to Dans from Bloomingdale because they participated in the "Chicago pizza March madness bracket" this year. They don't have a restaurant, just a tiny busy storefront pumping out the pies. Thin crust with sausage, mushroom, green pepper, and onion was delish. I judge my thin pizzas by the crust and the sauce, this one was very good on both accounts. Would I drive down to a carry out pizza place again? Probably not, but combined with Alter craft brewery to eat-in, yes if I'm meeting people from down that way. read more

It took me too long to have this in my life! I'm so glad I found Dans pizza. They have such a good crust, the sauce has a nice flavor, and the toppings cook up just right. Personally I love that they have green olives ;) The baby pizzas are perfect if you have a few different picky eaters and their gluten free crust is delicious as well (crunch and chewy and not completely dry). Tip: on Fridays and Saturdays call early as they get busy and you might have to wait longer for what is a truly delicious pizza. read more

Have been getting my pizza from there for years. Great sauce, great flavor and just a darn good pizza. Have had a glich or two in those years but always was corrected and I was made good. read more

In the heart of Downers Grove is Dan's Pizza, a carry out pizza joint in a strip mall, shared by a place that think they know a thing or two about philly cheesesteaks. Nonetheless, Dan's Pizza, is as illustrated in my 3 stars above: A-OK. read more
