Just stopped through to scratch that insatiable pizza crave; grabbed a veggie pizza on the go. The place was quiet and clean at 6pm on a Monday. The food came out fast as it could, and good as could be. Held true to SOME standards of the "Chicago Style" veggie pizza. Now I know where to stop when cruising up or down I-55. (Right off the highway). read more

Don't judge a book or restaurant by its cover! A little quaint and simple interior with a small dining room but, can accommodate a small to medium group. It seems it's more of a counter service/take out spot and the waitress, I'm guessing is the daughter, and maybe a first job. She is pleasant, and smiles. She knocks out the basics but, not the best to I Dulles in explaining the menu to someone new. The garlic bread seemed to be just saturated in butter and I wouldn't recommend. The deep-dish pizza tho..... this is the show stopper! I'm a Giordannos or Lou's kinda guy when it comes to deep dish. This doesn't beat theirs but it's a contender. I went simple with pepperoni & sausage. All in all, I would revisit this spot and explore other options. P.S. if you try this spot, please photograph and post your experience; there's not many pics of the east here. read more

By far the best value and best tasting Italian Beef and also Chicken Parm sandwhich I have ever eaten. Been stopping there for years while commuting to and from Chicago from Peoria area and it's a gem. Their pizza is outstanding as well. Hope they never change what they are doing. Polite and professional staff. read more

Picture this... Driving the BiG RiG and coming to the traffic light, I round the curve and a huge PIZZA sign is on my left, I'm parking for the night at the Loves. I hit up yelp to see what the latest food news is and Dwights Pizza shows up and its placement is directly across the street. Ringy Ringy, do you deliver to the trucks? Yes we do. Great! Man on the phone was super friendly. Delivery guy was prompt and super friendly. Great price for the quality of ingredients. It's made with kindness and from the heart and it shows in taste and presentation. Patronizing restaurants where you are treated well is where you want to spend your dough and spin your dough :D read more

This place is a joke of a pizza place. The owner can't even cook a pizza right, or even cut a calzone. They have no respect for their customers. If they mess up your order and they do nothing but blame it on you, and try to turn it so they are not in the wrong. This place is just a joke I wouldn't even feed this crap to my dogs, but again even they wouldn't eat it, lol Update: and if you call and complain this is the type of voice mail the OWNER leaves you the next morning "this is John from Dwighy pizza I got your message last night about your food, really not understanding what the problem was but I just want to let you know that we have a eating class at 1 o'clock every day you come in at 1 o'clock and will show you how to eat a pizza and you know it's disgusting is that we have to live on this planet with people like you I'm _here seven days a week till 5 o'clock..." read more

Stayed from of town and this was the only pizza place .it was absolutely tasteless and disgusting.the beef sandwich looked and tasted like buddig lunch meat.could have got a better microwave pizza and sandwich from the gas station .yuck read more

We were traveling and wanted a Chicago-style pizza, so we planned our day trip around eating at Dwight pizza. We had a very cheerful, efficient waiter. My husband and I ordered the Italian beef deep dish 10 inch. We had plenty for leftovers. It was a delicious new taste for us. Our friends got the meat lovers special. They said it was also great. They got the 8 inch and took one piece home. Our friend also go a couple beers. They carry Pepsi products. It was a great end to a great day. Their Facebook page lists their daily specials. read more

This place was awesome and welcoming. Great mom and pop place that treated us like family from the moment we walked in the door. We ordered the ultimate pizza, it was soooo cheezy and delicious. All the ingredients tasted fresh and the beef brochette sample we had was made with love! A must STOP. We have been searching for authentic Chicago style pizza and we finally found it! read more

Great little pizza place! Stopped here on our way back to Chicago- thanks to yelp reviews! Three of us ordered two large deep dish pizzas! The pepperoni and onion was really good! My boyfriend loved the meat lovers pizza! There was plenty leftover too! I'm used to Gino's east deep dish so the crust seemed a little plain to me-but it was still pretty good! The manager John was really nice and even gave us a sample of the Italian beef! OH MY GOSH it was delicious!! Has a little kick to it. I've never been a big fan of Italian beef-but I would definitely get the Italian beef if I ever came through this town again!! This place did not disappoint! I would recommend it! read more

Dwight Pizza - This is the ultimate pizza. We couldn't wait to get at it, so we grabbed a slices then took the picture. - Pizza Near Me - Dwight, Illinois

This pizza place is now under new ownership. Now called Dwight Pizza and more. My first experience with them did not go as well as I had expected. The delivery order was messed up twice missing half the order and took twice as long to receive our correct order. The prices have gone up dramatically which is why we thought our complete order was paid for the first time. The owner did make it right. The food was pretty good and we will give them a try again in the near future. read more

The second time I've been here, first time was for a thin crust pizza extra cheese, sausage and pepperoni, awesome!! they sit right above those franchises pizza joints where use too, just being truthful, if you guys where in Toledo OH, I'd say try your luck in our pizza palooza, I think you would have a fight chance, I'd vote for ya, then I went for their calzone, thumbs up, but most importantly during the whole Coronavirus thing they are open, and a very welcoming greeting is what you get, for us truck drivers we need that, so what I say, Thank you!!! And it's worth the walk from love's truck stop!!! read more

Dwight Pizza - 7in calzone, all I can say is....amazing and that you for being open during theses troubling times. - Pizza Near Me - Dwight, Illinois

Place was clean, quiet and the staff was very friendly. If you're looking for a laid back pizza joint then this is the spot. Overall the pizza was excellent. Will be back next time I'm passing through! read more

Was told this was great pizza, I wanted to give it a try, as I was getting tired of eating Geo's Pizza. I ordered a Chicago Deep dish and a 16" thin crust, the crust was kind of burned in a few spots (not that big of a deal) on both pizzas, the sausage on both pizzas was "gristley" and the pepperoni was "tasteless" I thought it was salami by it's taste. Chicago style Deep dish is supposed to have the toppings at the bottom covered with cheese, then topped off with sauce. My Chicago style deep dish was made with sauce on the crust, the toppings on top of that, then cheese, and a very sparse (almost sprayed on look) amount of sauce on top. The thin crust was like eating cardboard, a frozen Jacks or tombstone would have been better and more filling, not to mention the fact both pizzas were loaded with so mush sodium, I (we) got a headache, muscle cramps, and our blood pressures must have went up by 30%. I think we would have gotten less sodium intake if we ate a bowl of water softener tablets. I was given a 30-35 minutes delivery window and it took over an hour to receive these two nasty pizzas. It was not worth the $50 (plus a $5 drivers tip) for 2 salty, nasty pizzas. read more

Great little pizza place. The pizza was cooked perfect and service was great. Going to try the beef roll pizza next time. read more

Dwight Pizza - a half eaten pizza on a pan - Pizza Near Me - Dwight, Illinois

If I had to sum up Dwight Pizza in one word, it would be FRIED. Chicken strips, cauliflower, corn dogs, mushrooms, onion rings, fries...all FRIED. It's the perfect menu for a teenaged boy. If you do pop in and want to try something a bit different, the Lesliola sandwich or beef roll would be your best bet. read more

This is my favorite all-time pizza place, just as great as it was in the 1980s. Johnny loves what he does and knows how to take care of everyone. If you've never had his pizza, you're missing out. I got a large thin crust sausage and cheese, medium thin crust with hot giardiniera, a large house specialty to cook when I get back to SC. And last but not least Italian beef with hot peppers. Thanks a lot Johnny & Jim. read more

I ordered an 8" deep dish garlic pizza with mushrooms. They delivered it very quickly and did a GREAT job! Nice, gooey cheese, great flavor, great sauce, and fresh mushrooms! I was able to pay with my card over the phone which is nice, a lot of small town restaurants don't do that. I highly recommend this place! read more

Dwight Pizza - So good I couldn't stop smiling! - Pizza Near Me - Dwight, Illinois

This place is why the say, "don't judge a book by it's cover". The pizza was really good and the Italian Beef was better than what we had in Chicago. The place isn't much to look at, but the food and service are top notch. read more

Excellent pizza and service. Expanded dining room allowing for more dine in customers is a plus.

I was reluctant to grab pizza off an exit on my way to Chicago, but man was I WRONG as can be. Some of the best pizza I've ever had. I'll make it a point to stop in every time I'm passing through. The staff was so nice, the pizza came out quick as can be, and it's obvious that all the ingredients are fresh. I'm currently in pizza heaven! read more

Impressive with customer service and the Italian beef sandwich is extremely good. Can't wait to taste the pizza.

One of the best sandwiches I've had in my life. Very friendly and helpful staff. Looking forward to my next visit.

Just stopped in to this little gem on our way from Chicago to Springfield. I had the Italian Beef and Sausage Combo sandwich and it was PHENOMENAL!! The bread was perfect, the sausage one of the best I've ever had, and the beef, melted mozzarella, and giardiniera were high quality. The sandwich was also served with a delicious side of au jus so you could determine how juicy you want your bread! The owner was extremely warm and welcoming. Will definitely stop in again if I'm ever passing through! read more

Bunkered down at the Love's for the night and decided to try the pizza here. We ordered a large ultimate for delivery. Yup, they delivered to the truck! It was full of toppings and the crust held up well. I seriously could only eat a slice and a half. I was stuffed!! It's full of meat and cheesy goodness. The pizza lasted about two and a half days for both me and my hubby, eating for the two meals we eat per day. It was good reheated and a pizza to surely eat with a knife and fork! We will be eating here again in the future! read more

Owner and server were very friendly and welcoming. Owner sat and talked with us. Pizza was delicious- loaded with toppings and extra cheese. Good thin crust. They gave us a sample of the Italian Beef- so good that we'll be back to order that next time read more

Quick service and delicious food! Me and my sister just moved into town a couple of months ago and we're happy with this choice for pizza!

GREAT FOOD GREAT SERVICE DON'T PASS THEM BY!!! Did a search for itialian beef near us and just happened to be near this place. As former Chicagoans we were sceptical but it smelled good and they were super nice and accommodating. When they learned we had a 45 minute drive to take the food home they wrapped everything individually so it wasn't soggy and we could put it all together when we got home. Now for the food....it was fantastic and delicious and this is from people who are hard to please Chicago itialian beef regulars. You won't go wrong and we will definitely be back for second helpings!!! read more

Amazing pizza never had some as good as this they get your food made fast and fresh never had any problems eating hear

Amazing owner! Great pizza! On a road trip to Cali and passing through and we're so happy to get a hot good meal!

Fantastic pizza and Italian beef sandwiches at this cozy hole in the wall restaurant just off the highway. The owner is justifiably proud of his creations. Highly recommended. read more

John and Janet made my husband Steve and I feel like we were family. The deep dish pizza was exceptionally good. They treated us to a taste of the spicy beef sandwich meat John explained is what is really famous in Chicago...we will be coming back to get that next time. Words really can't express how much they have touched the hearts of both of us. Thank you so much. read more

We were traveling in I55 looking for some decent food and came upon the high ratings for Dwight Pizza on yelp. We were not disappointed! The owner is friendly and delivered great customer service. The pizza was delicious! We will definitely come back again! read more

Was not impressed at all pizza was kind of pricey and wasn't that great but options in Dwight are not the best...

Went there for a pizza, but the owner spent more time lecturing us about political stuff. I just came here to enjoy lunch with my cousins. Also, owner did not care about coronavirus guidelines and was not masked. The only good thing about my visit was the pizza was delicious. I won't be visiting again read more
