Pizza by Geneo

My brother discovered Frank's Pizza after one of his coworkers recommended it. Ever since then,…read morehe's become a regular customer because of the good vibes, cheap eats, and drinks. He kept saying that he wanted me to try the pizza because he thought I'd like it. He said it reminded him of Fox's Pizza in Beverly, which is what we grew up on. Honestly, Frank's is somewhere I would've never gone without my brother's prompting. I don't frequent the area and rarely go to dive bars, but I was pleasantly surprised. The bar was quiet, clean, and comfortable. It's no frills for sure, but it's a bare-bones environment in the best way. My brother and a friend of ours were already there when I arrived. They'd already started a tab so, I just went to the bar and ordered. It was early (noon) so I didn't order alcohol. I only ordered Pepsi, but my brother and friend ordered drinks. They liked them and said they only cost $3.50. We ordered a large pepperoni and sausage pizza which arrived fairly quickly. it was piping hot too!! It was so hot that the cheese would just slide off the cracker-thin crust. The pizza was excellent though. My sister thought the cheese was too thick, but, I liked it. I thought it was fantastic. The meats were high quality and the sauce was tasty. Our friend liked it as well. The four of us ate the entire pizza. We visited on a Saturday afternoon, so the bar wasn't packed. There were a handful of regulars at the bar and a couple of people playing the slot machines. There was a baseball game playing on the TV, so it was fairly quiet. During peak hours I'd imagine that it gets pretty packed. The bartender and our server were cool, so I have no complaints about the service. I wouldn't say that Frank's pizza tastes like Fox's in Beverly, but I do understand why my bro made that comparison. They're both good for different reasons. I'd probably visit Frank's again in the future if given the choice.

Frank is awesome full of life and stories besides making a killer pizza. The restaurant is clean…read moreand decorated for the season. One of the best thin crust pizzas in Chicago.

When you arrive there is a large seating area to the left, includes lots of larger tables for bigger groups. Then if you wind your way into the main area, there are tables that face outward on the first floor, a middle section with seating and then a balcony area. Really interesting restaurant that was fun to walk around. Our server was great - we had a large party and orders were taken and we didn't wait too long for food to start arriving. On recommendation we ordered the stuffed pizza - which is like a calzone. Lots of cheese, toppings, great crust and delicious red sauce on top! Not quite a deep dish but oh so delicious. We also ordered the Caesar salad, which was shareable and the garlic sticks! Food was hot, fresh and I can't wait to go back for the pizza! Only downside was we had to pay by table and all the drinks ended up on my check, which added a few hundred dollars. Overall pizza was amazing and I'll be back!

The order out was out the door right on time & got to me fresh. To my surprise they even threw in an RC cola. That is old school hospitality that you rarely see anymore. The pizza is cut into squares with the pepperoni daintily laid out in a uniform one per slice as close to the center of the slice as possible. The cheese is perfectly melted albeit not browned. Taste wise the crust has a buttery richness to it that lights up your tastebuds. The rest of the ingredients are just ok as they fall in line behind the crust. Is it a good pizza? I would say it's better than most, but far from the best. Rico Rino's is the type of pizza that you can grab a slice for lunch everyday & never be disappointed, but never impressed either.

It's about 15-20 minutes from my house. I showed up about 50 minutes after I ordered. The lot next to the business was pretty full but I found a spot. The lobby is very tiny, but there are a few chairs for people waiting. When I got there it was a line out the door but it moved very quickly. When I got my pizza I could tell that it was probably sitting for a bit because the bottom of the pizza was moist with condensation. By the time I got home the pizza was barely warm. Next time I will be there earlier to get the pie fresh out of the oven. Even though the pizza was definitely not hot it was pretty good. The crust was thicker than I expected. Everyone kept talking about the thin, cracker-like crust, but the crust was actually kind of thick. I appreciate that they have a non-pork meat option (beef). I wish they would offer turkey sausage. More people are giving up pork and it would definitely give them an edge. Anyway, was it the best pizza I've had in Notthwest Indiana/Southeast Chicago suburbs? Absolutely not, but it was solid. I have to give them another chance and eat it while it's hot and fresh.

Nonna's Goodlife Pizza has a few locations including this one that happens to be one of the few places around here that's not a big time chain restaurant. For sure there's the pizza, but there's a whole lot of other stuff on the menu. The prices are higher than the crappy bigger chains, but the pizzas are big, and it's a lot better quality. Came at lunch and there were only a few other people in here eating. It's mostly a place to get it to go it seems. The pizza is the main thing. Has a ton of choices. Seems to be a pretty good value even with the higher prices because you actually get quite a lot and the pizza is pretty good stuff. It's about $25 to get a medium, which seems like a lot. This also includes a liter of pop. For sure there's cheaper pizza, but this is much better. They're known for the massive Stadium Pizzas, big enough to feed a party. Has lots of flavors and toppings to choose from and they're open later than most places around here. It's located on Cicero Avenue with a hard to get into parking lot. There's more than just the pizzas, as they have a good choice of pastas, as well as frozen treats like yogurt.
