Kim's Uncle Pizza in Westmont delivers a focused, uncompromising take on Chicago-style tavern…read morepizza. Thin, square-cut, and baked well-done, the pie showcases a crisp, structurally sound crust with just enough char to add bitterness and depth without overpowering the bite. The pepperoni is assertive and well-distributed, releasing savory oils that mingle with a bright, balanced tomato sauce and evenly browned cheese. Each slice holds its integrity--no flop, no excess grease--allowing the quality of the ingredients to remain front and center. The restraint here is intentional; nothing feels overworked or gratuitous. Kim's Uncle keeps the operation deliberately narrow: one pizza size, phone-in ordering only, and a clear commitment to execution over expansion. The result is a confident, old-school tavern pie that respects tradition while delivering precision. For those who appreciate classic Chicago pizza done thoughtfully and without compromise, this is essential. 9/10.

There's plenty of parking in the lot just north of the restaurant, and when I stepped out of my car and into the chilly January air, it was like a religious experience - the smell, THAT GOOD SMELL, the smell you smell when you know you're about to have some truly tremendous pizza. Inside is little more than a counter, a couple of booths, and a stool to sit on and wait, and it couldn't be any more charming. The pizza box stole my heart too, not your average boot of Italy here. I don't know that I would do the hot soppressata over regular pepperoni (could just be that I don't like it as much, but I wanted to try), otherwise this was delicious. Lovely, crispy, caramelized edges, just divine.

Crust was perfectly crispy - not too thick and not too cracker like, cheese was perfectly gooey, sauce was impeccable, and the toppings were loaded on -- we did jalapeños and pepperoni and it was FIRE! Seriously the BEST tavern style pizza we have tasted in the Chicago burbs! Absolutely amazing!! Service is super friendly, you can tell this is a spot where locals keep coming back. It's got that "everyone knows your name" kind of vibe. Bottom line: if you're in Downers Grove and want GREAT pizza without the chain vibe, Fast Eddy's is a winner. Can't wait to go back!!

A lot of the positive reviews seem centered around the fact…read morethat it's Halal, which may appeal to people specifically looking for that, but if you're simply looking for quality pizza and a good dine-in experience, this place falls short. The sauce is overly sweet, the crust is mediocre, and the meat quality/flavor is noticeably different from what you'd expect at a traditional pizza place. They also do not serve alcohol, which is their choice, but it makes the atmosphere feel even more limited for what should be one of the premier outdoor dining locations in downtown Clarendon Hills.p What makes it more disappointing is the location itself. There are very few units that can have outdoor seating (as epitomized by the Prospect Tavern that fell through because they couldn't even get three parking spaces for outdoor seating approved), and this spot has some of the best outdoor seating in town, yet it's usually nearly empty while neighboring restaurants are packed. It feels like a missed opportunity for the area. If only we could have gotten something like Parlor Pizza here instead!

We are so glad we did! Because the cheese was perfectly gooey without being overwhelming paired with a delicious tomato sauce atop a complimentary crust with just the right amount of give to it. This may be the only thin crust pizza I would continue to get. The pan pizza was basically just the thin crust pizza with a lip on the perimeter and more cheese. This pizza was not nearly as good as the thin crust because if I'm going to eat a non-thin crust pizza, I want a more doughy crust and this just did not deliver. There was also too much cheese and it wasn't charred the same way the thin crust was. The inside is quaint with hats from all over everywhere. Service is also very kind and as quick as they can be with how busy it is. My only complaint is I wish they had a vegetable side dish that was fried, but it's a local pizza shop and perhaps not the right audience for this.
