    DIY flavuh!

    My dining partner had made the suggestion a few times in the past few weeks and we finally got to Mod Pizza on Grand Avenue. Parking is very easy with plenty of spots right in front. Inside, it's very clean and customer service is very friendly. The menu board is easy to figure out. I just didn't know that I could design my own pizza until they told me. Also, for some reason I couldn't figure out that they had a thicker crossed which goes by a different name. In any case, I got my order placed easily and with a friendly, helpful staff. My dining partner ordered a pizza with non-dairy cheese and was very happy with it. Our pizzas were ready in about 10 minutes, and piping hot when served to us precut! DELISH! HEALTHY! NOT SALTY, NO PRESERVATIVES! I will definitely return to mod Pizza.

    I love this place for a quick lunch. I call it the Subway of pizzas. I really like that you can put on as many toppings that you want with no extra charge per ingredient. Also, when the pizza comes out of the oven around 5-6 minutes it's hot and crispy. That's need to open one up in Grayslake.

    Love the huge selection you have for ingredients for them to make the pizza for you! Even loved the choice of beverages...I chose rose wine in the can...not too bad. The pizza crust on top and sides of pizza was delicious and crunchy. Unfortunately,the pizza had a slight soggy bottom. Not sure how they can fix this issue...I keep having visions of some wood-fire grills where the bottom is not soggy. Maybe leave pizza on grill longer?

    I really like the create your own pizza! Not only can you select from numerous ingredients, most of the servers will let you add a little extra if you'd like.

    The quality of the food from this location has gone down over the last few years. The crust is typically squishy, and the amount of toppings is pathetic especially if you go with a pizza from the board. Some pieces have a couple of small ingredients sometimes making the distribution being done carelessly. They're also lacking quality control; we've received pizzas without cheese or other toppings altogether. At times the size of the pizza can vary greatly in size even if you get the MOD size. The only suggestion I would have if you go here is to be very specific and monitor them closely while they make your pizza. Don't make an order and walk to the register like they suggest. Otherwise there are much better options besides MOD Pizza where you can get better quality and consistency. On a positive note, the people are generally nice and accommodating.

    Enjoyed Mod so much that I had a craving for it after Six Flags. It was opened late n I knew being lactose intolerant 2 of us couldnt eat thick cheesy Lou Manaltis so had to stop here. Loved it. Loved piling on toppings and seeing it all come together. It's always a yummy concoction. So good. And fresh. Really enjoyed it. Mine was earthy bc I love putting arugula in mine and tons of veggies. Love how they open late here and still we can get fresh food. Great alt option while rest eats Chicago style pizza take out few blocks down. I love how Mod makes their crust pretty crispy. This location is nice and clean too and workers were kind and friendly even so late at night so that was nice. Will def stop here for pizza fix after lomg day at the park!

    This place was pretty packed on a Wednesday dinner rush. But surprisingly the line went quickly. In case you don't know how it works, you pick your pizza size (set price) and any topping(s) you desire. There is the "Mini," which is the 6" for $4.87 (TINY!) or u can get a side salad for that price. Then there's the 11" MOD pizza or entree salad for $7.87 and lastly the Mega, which is the double layer 11" crust pizza for $10.87 or family size salad for that price. For the price they charge, it is definitely NOT worth it. Especially if you are super hungry. You're better off going to Pizza Hut or little caesars to "fill up" We ordered the mega, which has two layers of crust stacked on top of each other. This wasn't worth it at all. And our dough was under done and every bite was doughy and it was pretty disgusting. We got it to go so it was too late to complain. The double crust seems like a cheap attempt to make you think you're getting a larger pizza when in reality, it's just two THIN pie crust layered on top of each other with no fillings in between. If there was some filling (like cheese) to have some depth, I can see the extra charge but with the pie being so thin to begin with, the extra charge doesn't add anything. So you are better off getting the MOD for $7.87 And let me tell you about the Garlic Strips we got. It was ridiculous. It's a 6" THIN pie crust cut into 8 pieces, lightly baked with some garlic butter. BAM! $2.97! When I opened the box, it looked very plain and underwhelming. SO NOT WORTH IT. The employees who were taking the order were really nice and know what they are doing. The girl who was calling our names for pick up looked overwhelmed. She gave the wrong pizza to a customer and the customer who was supposed to get that wrong pizza was now left with no pizza and had to wait for another pizza to be made. And the customer who got the wrong pizza had to wait for a new one too. She was having a hard time keeping track of pizza labeled with names.... With how busy they were, they should've have two expediting and also, with so many boxes being left on the pick up counter, it would be nice to have the names labeled on there in case someone grabbed the wrong one. Or use a numbering system rather than names. I feel like if I'm getting an artesian pizza the quality should be better. Sure, their ingredients may be "fresh" but this joint is just a lower end version of a California Pizza Kitchen. Anyway, they're getting a 2 star review due to undercooked pizza dough. I even asked the cashier how long it takes to bake the pizza and he said 5 mins. (Thinking to myself... This is a bit fast even for a thin dough) From when we paid and sat down to having our name called, it took about 5 mins and sure enough, we came home with undercooked dough. You can tell they were serving the pizza way faster than they should. For a pizza place you would think they would know how to time their pizzas correctly....

    This was my first time visiting Mod Pizza and I was not disappointed! It was very busy when I came in, I guess because of the dinner rush on a Friday night, but the staff seemed to have a good system in place to keep the line moving because they moved us along very quickly and within 20 or so minutes of entering the store I had my to-go pizza packed in a box and ready to go! Parking outside was plentiful, even though it was a busy evening. One thing I should mention, as a mom of a baby: it can be pretty loud inside, as lots of restaurants are with the music and all the chatter and yelling in the kitchen, which is to be expected, but if your little one doesn't appreciate loud environments then you might want to take your food to go, as we did. I absolutely loved that you could get as many toppings as you want for no extra charge. We'll definitely be back in the future!

    11" w/light red sauce, veggies, & veggie Italian sausage.

    Best pizza spot around, at least in my opinion! Was immediately greeted upon walking in. Pizza is made fresh to order. Best part- unlimited toppings for one price. Prep area was clean. Incredibly nice staff. Vegan Italian sausage and vegan cheese available!!!! I will definitely make this my go-to spot!

    Delicious pizza with lots of veggies and chicken. Reminds me of pizza in Europe.

    See all

    We ordered the chicken feta and spinach pizza with extra cheese, and I'll be honest -- it was…read moreabsolutely fantastic. Great flavor, perfectly balanced toppings, and definitely something I'd order again. We also tried the wings. I'd probably skip those next time. The sauce was just okay, and the wings themselves weren't as crispy as you'd expect. They tasted more like frozen wings than fresh. If that doesn't bother you, you might be fine -- but they didn't stand out. Our waiter was attentive, and the overall vibe is classic Quonset -- the smell of pizza in the air, cold beer, and friendly staff. Solid spot for pizza, just maybe not the wings.

    I live near here and get a small cheese to go several times a month…read more I may not be there at peak times but for me it's always better to walk in and order and wait for it than to call ahead. Never timed it but it doesn't ever seem like a long wait and the product is a landmark of consistency. 12", $13.50 now. $4.50-$5.50 in the late 1970's. I've lived around here in stretches now and again for 50+ years and this place is always the same as it was when I was in high school. For a small, independent bar-pizza joint, that's really impressive. But this place deserves some kind of a plaque. The small cheese pizza these folks put out today is photo-level consistent with what they put out in 1970. Ordinarily I would accept that I may have a little wishful brain fog about the crust and the sauce and the cheese being identical but that's also what I see when I look at comments. So, I may pick one up this afternoon. What's described as the cracker style crust holds up pretty well but it's still best all-around when eaten in the store. Haven't eaten one while sitting at the bar right after it came out of the oven in a long time but if I order it when I get there, 1 diet Pepsi later I'm walking out the door. That's pretty close.
