We stopped here based off a recommendation from a bartender. I am so happy we did! The price point was amazing and the pizza was so good! The restaurant has a goth feeling and is dark and mysterious but the staff is so nice and helpful. I wish I could go back for more, but since we live in a different state I will have wait till the next time we are in Chicago! read more

Still a good option for a slice, but I'm toning down my ringing endorsement from a few years ago. It's just not as good. I don't know what's changed. Not worth a special trip and not the best slice in the area anymore, but very solid. Great efficient service. read more

Pizza crust on the bottom was a bit burned. I'm into obviously hot food, but not almost burning your mouth hot. Pizza doesn't need to burn worthy. Too hot pizza is a hard pass. read more

Ordered a slice of the day and a small house salad to go. Service was kind and the wait was reasonable to get it ready! The slice of the day had a garlic white sauce, mushrooms, and tomato. It was cheesy and flavor wise was delicious. I found the crust on the sweeter side. It was dry and difficult to chew, my jaws were pretty sore and could only get through 1/4 of the crust at the top. Overall not terrible but not wonderful. Portions are quite large if you like good value! read more

Dante's Pizzeria - Pizza by the Slice - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Dante's Pizzeria reminds me of New York style pizza! It has thin crust that's crispy around the edges and foldable in the middle. I like that Dante's offer pies but also have slices available with choices and slice of the day besides just cheese, sausage, and pepperoni. The garlic sauce is a must-try! They have a variety of special pies but also offer vegan style that similar to the special pies. They are one of the few pizza places that have plenty offering for vegan- a big plus. The restaurant is fairly small but has tables for sitting. Service is good, the wait isn't terribly long but even with ordering the slice, there's a bit of a wait since they warm up the slices for you. I highly recommend Dante's if you are looking for New York style pizza with garlic sauce and vegan options. read more

$7 plus tip for a single slice of pizza. Nope. I was a regular for years but this place has gone downhill. Pizza quality has gone down, they removed many of the sandwiches from the menu, and prices have literally more than doubled. I don't plan on going back. read more

This place is CRAZY good. But FYI- the pizzas are huge!!! Came in to grab lunch, 2 vegans and a meatlover, and Dante's could accomodate us both! We ended up getting The Beatrice- Vegan style and The Minos which is all the meat. We figured what ever we didnt eat, pizza leftovers are always the best! I recommend grabbing a pie here- you will not regret it! read more

Pizza arrived stone cold... restaurant is only one half mile away. $40+ dollars for cold food

Dante's is a terrific little pizzeria on Armitage. It's definitely not your ordinary pizza, as they have a big variety of toppings, some which are plant based. Just know there's no alcohol, only pop. Also has delivery. They have pizza by the slice or whole. Armitage location is the original Dante's. It has a newer one next to High Dive that also has beer and liquor. This one only has pop, and is more of a traditional looking pizzeria. As for the pizza, it's a good deal. It's $6 for the daily vegan slice. This kind of pizza can be whatever. Also the slices are big. These are about twice the size of a normal slice. Also you can get whole pizzas, vegan or with regular meat and cheese. The whole pizzas are quite expensive at $20 or more, so that's why to get slices and save a lot. Get pick up or delivery. It's better getting it done in because the pizza is better hot. The only bad thing is they have no alcohol, so oh well, you have to be okay with pop and pizza. read more

Dante's Pizzeria - Vegan Pizza Slice - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Dante's Pizzeria: My friends and loyal followers know that I'm all about pan, stuffed, and Chicago style pizza. Making things even more unusual about this pizza choice was that I was actually in Chicago. So, why did I opt for New York style pizza while in the windy city? It's simple, the friend I was visiting said it was the best New York style slices in Chicago. If it's the best, then I've got to try it. I only got an individual slice, but it was massive! It took up the entire pizza pan it was served on. For those of you from MKE, the size was comparable to Classic Slice. I should warn you that the slices come out super-hot. It's my fault since I'm so used to getting pizza to go, but I did burn my mouth on my first bite. Although the crust was thinner than I tend to prefer, it was still surprisingly chewy. Being the cheesehead that I am, I went with a simple cheese pizza. While there wasn't anything wrong with the cheese, there wasn't as much as I tend to prefer on my slices. For me, the pizza was just okay, but the service was fine and I think most people would enjoy the pizza. Due to my bias for thicker crust and tons of cheese I'm going to give this a dual rating of just okay (me, 3 stars) as well as approved (most people, 5 stars). Doughboy_Food_Reviews read more

OKG have you seen the SIZE of that thing? "That's what she said" HHaha had to add that in there ;) But no seriously it's HUGEE! I added a picture next to my husband and my husband is a big 6 footer guy so yeah that pizza is half is size in diameter! If you are having a party then this place is it! The reason I took 1 star off is it wasn't warm when it arrived. For it being summer months as well there was really no excuse for it to be room temp to touch. Infact, I had to put it in the oven to rewarm it. Anyway other my suggestion? If you have a party at home this is a great deal! read more

Dante's Pizzeria - 20" Minos Specialty Pie - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I visited Dante's Pizzeria recently and had a very good plain cheese + basil pie (20" - their only size option.) Iconic and rich New York-style flavor, great color on the undercarriage, well-proportioned sauce and cheese, and super friendly staff. Obviously for a 20" pie the slices were HUGE, which led to some unavoidable flop. The center of the pizza had zero crisp with quite a bit of flop/grease, although the crisp/chew ratio did improve substantially after those first 2-3 bites. I'd rate the Dante's slice a solid 7.5/10. I think if they offered a 16" option, it would likely reduce the flop/grease in the middle and raise the score substantially. read more

I ordered from here hoping it would be better than last time. The fried artichokes are canned artichokes that were breaded, mushy and gross. The pizza was like a cracker with the tiniest amount of cheese on it, rock hard and inedible, burned on the bottom. This place used to be so great, I don't know what happened. read more

Legendary pizza, even more legendary chocolate chip cookies. Excellent vegan options. An overall slam dunk.

Tried this spot for the first time while visiting Chicago. We got a Large Pepperoni and cheese pizza. The pizza was a mouthwatering delight, bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked. Each bite was a symphony of textures and tastes, from the crispy crust to the gooey cheese and the huge pepperoni was delicious. It was a culinary masterpiece that left our family craving for more. The service was spectacular, the server was very kind, and ran to get the door for me. The ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant, with a tasteful and inviting atmosphere. You will not be disappointed. read more

What self respecting Chicagoan doesn't like deep dish? Me. After 10 years of living in this city, I still just don't get it. NY style pizza, on the other hand... I had heard that Dante's makes the best NY style pizza in Chicago, and it definitely didn't disappoint. First of all, the pie is HUGE. I could barely get the box out the door. Secondly, the fact that they let you do 50/50 with toppings is nice. The only complaint I can think of is that we had requested pepperoni on one side, and they gave us pineapple. We ordered from the Chicago Ave location btw. It still tasted great, and my husband happens to love pineapple on pizza so we honestly didn't mind, but it could've been a more serious offense if it was an ingredient we were allergic to or didn't like. We also ordered the wings and they were fantastic. Had a nice kick to them. Would definitely recommend ordering. Despite our best efforts, my husband and I weren't even able to finish half the pizza in one meal. This is probably the right size for 4-5 people or 2 people who don't mind having leftovers for a few days. Definitely give Dante's a try if you like NY pizza! read more

Always order take out. Never a problem and pizza always on point. Delicious, I love they sell pizza by the slice is great

Did you just move to Chicago and can't seem to find "NY style" pizza? When you ask locals, do they just point you to a place that serves "tavern style" and then look at you like you're crazy when you try to explain that just because something isn't "deep dish," that doesn't automatically make it "NY style?" Well, stop searching, because this place has the pizza you're looking for. And thank heavens we finally found it. We had to toil through so many different "cracker-crust / too-much-cheese / thin-yet-not-NY" pizzas in Chicagoland before we found Dante's. We went out of our way to go here, and we will continue to. read more

As an ex-pat New Yorker, I am always seeking out a true New York Slice. This place is relaxed and open. You order at the bar and they bring to your table. I get the feeling this place does a larger take out business than eat in. The pizza was great, very thin Crust; Sturdy and foldable; crunchie with a good chew; yup, that's NY pizza! My son prefers Jimmy's with a slightly thicker crust. I also ordered caprese salad which was tasty and fresh. The decor is well, devilish. I will vote Dante's, but I will likely get overridden. read more

Huge pizzas with slices available but too often I find the underside burned and the toppings kind of stingy.

Food was pretty good can't quite remember what I had exactly.. I feel like it was sausage pizza, fries & drink but then I think I might have tried a beef or pasta here as well.. this was about 1.5 years ago.. inside was dark & chill I'll say read more

3.5 star is my true rating. Ordered delivery from here on a Saturday night. Not bad, only took an hour. First off the pizzas are HUGE here, 4 people can easily split 1 pizza. The two pizzas we ordered were the Minos, and Minotaur. The Minos had a ton of meat, and the crust was done well. It was very salty though, to the point that I could only eat a half a piece. The Minotaur was better, beware it is spicy. I enjoyed the giardiniera and sausage. Pizza was less salty and I was able to enjoy. Overall place is solid, but better pizza places in the neighborhood. read more

Geryon pizza so good. Maker made the crust thin and it had a hole and unfortunately came undone while eating. The pizza maker was really nice to make us another which I ate for leftovers. The staff was friendly and informative when I had a question about the sandwiches, which I will get next time. The restaurant was empty so I didn't have to wait much for my pizza. I love ordering from here. Great service and great food! read more

Some friends and I checked out this spot recently. This place has a no frills type of atmosphere. Many people tend to carry out, but there are also a few tables in case you would prefer to eat in. We ordered the inferno pizza and I liked it a lot more than I expected. The inferno is a little "topping heavy", but everything on this pizza was well thought out. read more

If your criteria for a great pizza is size, Dante's should be your go to place. All pizzas are 20". Stop a minute, get out a ruler and measure 20". I'll wait....OK. See what I'm saying? Massive!! Now, think about how big the box has to be to hold that beast. Almost impossible to get it out of their door!! So, from a value perspective this place reigns supreme. It's all NY style pizza which I like. The crust is appropriately thin but doesn't quite meet my exacting standards for taste and crunch. Toppings are good but they cover the pizza with oregano. Or at least that's my experience. The most prominent topping on our last pizza was oregano. Dry, flake oregano that gets all over everything when you pick up a slice. I'd prefer they didn't do that at all. Pretty good pizza, massive size to satisfy your cravings, and a good value. Not a bad option for your next order. Ask them to hold the oregano. read more

Pizza so ginormous that you can't get the box out their door without tilting it when you do carry out. When we got it home and opened the box, we couldn't believe our eyes. Was it the best New York style pizza I've ever had? Not really but, it was pretty tasty. Worth getting again for the price, definitely. The only thing I objected to was the massive amount of oregano shaken onto the crust. We had oregano everywhere after we ate our pizza - all over the counters, the floor and ourselves. Think I'll ask them to skip that part next time. read more

Thanks all for a great couple pizzas for the family. For thin crust pizza, I'll nominate you for Figure 1, Chapter 1 in the book of thin crust. Solid pizza, really nice crust and fold.

Love the pizza. The staff and ambiance are classic Logan and are 100% what the neighborhood is about.

The pizza is bland and not a place I plan to revisit again. I like the idea of pizza by the slice but found this pizza to be underwhelming.

A secret worth sharing, if you aren't aware of this particular jewel. It's been in the neighborhood a while but for any of a given number of reasons, we didn't really discover it until the delivery of food became ubiquitous in 2020-21. Pleasantly surprised and enjoyed. We've been back several times since the world reopened. We keep our orders simple but we've never been disappointed. Our long term mission is to try a little bit of everything from their menu. read more

WOW why have I not tried this place sooner?! If you want some delicious thin NY style pizza, this is the place to go!! The pizzas here are MASSIVE (20 inches). One slice is bigger than a plate, but hey that's just New York pizza. One of these pizzas can easily feed 4 people. We ordered the Minos (meat pizza) and loved it. The red sauce is so flavorful and there's plenty of hot melted cheese. This pizza reminds me of my childhood and growing up on the east coast. I haven't found any other places here in Chicago that taste just like the pizza I had growing up. Def makes my top 3 pizza spots in the city. read more

Great pizza with fast delivery. They only have one size f-ing huge and its all you need.

Thanks to whoever turned my pizza slice into a giant ball of grease and cheese..More than a half of this slice is inedible because of the ton of mozzarella that even knife cant cut in pieces. I mean, I like mozza but didn't expect a fist-like chunk of melted mozzarella folded in the slice. Grose! It is too hard to digest. Also how do you fold heated pizza straight from the oven? Did I ordered calzone?! Wtf Dante's?! And it was just last week that I ate super delicious slice of cheese with black olives.. I guess it depends on the crew behind the bar.. read more
