    Pepperoni Slice
    Nizel A.

    Since I'm stuck inside for the next few days studying, I figured I would order some pizza. Doreen's ended up showing on my list. At first, I was hesitant because it's a local pizzeria shop in an area where the people there might not know what good pizza is. Also, from the other reviews the service is horrendous and I can't wait two plus hours to get a pizza, especially if the order will be wrong. In the end instead of ordering a whole pizza I ordered two slices, a Maxwell Street polish since that's hard to mess up and a chicken parmigiana sandwich. The order got out on time and it had all of my items so I'm happy. Now that I took a deep dive into the items. Pizza: Appearance - The pizza itself looked brilliant online which is one of the reasons why I wanted to order it. In person it looks about like an average slice. The mozzarella cheese is perfectly melted with good browning, the sauce is spread every so lightly in order to give you that perfect combination of cheese and sauce that we've come to love in Chicago. 5/5 Taste - The sauce on the sausage is a sweet sauce. It's a bit too sweet which might turn some people off. Tuning into the pepperoni slice it was clear that the sauce for the sausage was a mishap because the pepperoni slice tasted much better. I'm happy that I opted for it slices instead of a whole pizza since I didn't get burned. Everything works together well her. The pizza has a very robust flavor that makes you not want to stop. This is some of the best pizza I've had in a while. 5/5 Maxwell Street Polish: Appearance - Not quite as appealing as the photos online that have the works, but still a good looking dog nonetheless. There's plenty of sport peppers & onions on the toasted poppy seed bun. 5/5 Taste - If you make a Maxwell Street Polish that doesn't knock people's socks off...then you have serious problems at your restaurant. Luckily Doreen's doesn't have that problem. A perfectly executed polish that is extremely satisfying to devour. 5/5 Chicken parmigiana: Appearance - It comes on a pretzel bun which is a first-time combo for me. Initially you're going to be disappointed at the little amount of cheese and sauce on the top of the sandwich and then you open the bottom and there's more cheese and sauce so you're good. The chicken portions are also gigantic, but for $11 they better be. 5/5 Taste - The chicken itself seem dry although it is definitely quality white meat chicken. This seems to be mostly due to the fact that the piece is so large that the sauce doesn't cover all of it. The parts with sauce are juicy while the sauceless parts are so dry they can cut your mouth. Everything comes together really well although you do wish there was more cheese. 4/5 Overall, Doreen's seems to be one of those gems where they get everything right. Even the French fries are seasoned to perfection. I look forward to having Doreen's in the rotation of my usual pizzeria's especially since other pizzeria's have gone downhill recently (stares blankly at Reggio's.) Does it beat an Albano's or Paisan's? No, but they give an honest effort that would beat a lot of other self-proclaimed "pizzerias" & they would especially beat restaurants that don't focus primarily on pizza. 4.5 out of 5 stars

    Baked mosticolli

    Come on !!! I just started ordering again since the taco pizza incident. No sauce, Parmesan, silverware, napkins, or bread & butter. Baked mostacolli should be baked. Cold shredded cheese thrown on top. I know you can do better !!!

    Out of town truck driver and so happy the local business had a perfect recommendation. Ordered the stuffed pizza with sausage peppers and onions, my first chicago style stuffed pizza and it didn't disappoint. You can tell the pizza has all fresh ingredients, awesome dough and the cheese is real great quality!!! The meatballs, yum!! When I come back to chicago...this is my spot! I have to try some other things on the menu for sure, they know what they are doing!!

    Doreens "Philly Cheesesteak"
    Sammantha B.

    Wish I could give it a ZERO. What a let down. Looking to keep our business in the neighborhood while getting something different than our norm, instead all we got was regret and let down. A half onion pizza was delivered (with over an hour wait) as half mushroom instead. And the Philly cheese steak sandwich appears to be microwaved meat flopped on soggy bread. Stay far far away. There is definaltey better pizza in town.

    Really good food.  Very good employees.  Been there numerous times and food was always good.

    Very clean and nice environment. Employees are very polite. Food was hot and prepared perfectly.

    Terrific pizza! Loved the pizza when I'd get it from the store frozen but it's obviously better baked fresh.

A slice is a lot but it's so good that you end up eating more. You can also reserve via Tock, but beware that the normal dinner time can be booked out early!

My party just wanted to try the thin here as well since we've tried deep dish and like it.The wings were a little small (some pieces) but fried crispy and nicely with good buffalo and barbecue flavor.

I make better salads and dressings! We ordered a large pan pizza which was overly salty with burnt crust edges. The cheese and tomato sauce were really good, but the saltiness killed it for me. The place was packed and very noisy. Not sure if it was quieter on the second floor. When you have lots of customers, it's important to have a system of checking the status of the restrooms very often. They were quite neglected. We often have out-of-town and foreign guests to host and show off our city to. We always include a deep dish pizza meal for their experience, and usually at Lou Malnati's. Always a great experience, especially the branch in downtown Naperville- consistently good. And Lou's really makes the best salad than anywhere! Sometimes for a potluck contribution I just pick up a Lou's salad, guaranteed to make everyone happy. However, our guests enjoyed the pizza and dessert; thus, I can give 3 stars for our experience at Pequod's.

Big bang buffalo- standard buffalo. Can't go wrong. Hot honey- pretty good, honey flavor, some sweetness Garlic galaxy glaze- this is really good if you like garlic flavor. I would get this again. Bayou in the sky- super super good. I would get this again. Hint of spice, hint of sweet. Carolina bbq- tasted like straight deli mustard. I would pass. The pizza, even though they advertise Detroit Style pizza, their take is more like Focaccia style pizza. They provide nice crunch, not enough sauce. Pretty airy dough. Drooling mushroom- they offer lots of mushrooms on top but the rest of the pizza was not too great. Next time, I would get Ham Radio- pepperoni, bacon, sausage, got and sweet pepper.

So delicious After getting it, my buddy had to get one too haha One of us had the moonwalk cheese, we go out for a lot of pizza together, and he said it was he thought his favorite of anywhere. Another one of our crew got the pepperoni pile up loved. And I got the sweet and salty space candy pizza With bacon, pineapple, pickled red onion, goat cheese, sambal. Genius, the goat cheese, instead of ricotta was the move for this pizza! All the flavors worked in perfect harmony.Nothing short of amazing. Cozy spot, super cool atmosphere, couple of old school arcade games like ninja Turtles let's goooo We had so much fun. The drinks were absolutely excellent as well. Oh my God cannot forget this drink program. Galactic gift basket and Jedi mind trick sooo fire.
