    Top: Bank Raaber Bottom: Fungus Among Us
    Tina L.

    I'm confused why the pizza here has such hype. I thought their pizza was okay at best. I enjoy a crispy crust; Roebuck's crust is floppy. I ordered the Bank Raaber and my friend ordered the Fungus Among Us. Both of us felt so-so about our pizzas. The service wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great. The waiter didn't really come to check on us and my friend had to ask him twice for ranch. Ambiance is laid-back but still nice. This is a good place to catch up with a friend over a few drinks! In fact, I would come back here for their espresso martini because it was the best I've tried yet!! The pizza not so much.

    Roebuck has a really nice patio area and the doors open so it feels like you're sitting outside even when inside. I ordered the standard bearer, which I thought was such a good combination of flavors. The chunks of mozzarella are so rich and delicious. Can't wait to go back here!

    Burger and Red Riding Hog Pizza

    The food was just okay I'm not sure where all the amazing reviews are coming from. The pizza was kind of soggy and the sauce wasn't super flavorful. The burger was pretty good but fairly standard for a smash burger. Artichoke dip came with 5 tortilla chips which was disappointing. Service was quick but no one was friendly. They have a decent sized patio on the sidewalk which was nice.

    I ordered here via delivery app even though I live .2 miles away. I ordered the Marinara pizza and added pepperoni. My pizza arrived cold, again I live .2 miles away, it took the driver less than 5 minutes to get to my apartment from the restaurant so my pizza definitely didn't get cold that quickly. Despite it being cold, I do have to say the pizza was delicious. The crust was crunchy on the outside but still soft and bread like on the inside. Only flaw, is that the bottom crust was so soft that when I picked up my slices it would flop (see photo). I'm willing to give this place a try again, maybe in person this time, before I rule them out completely.

    First time trying Roebuck and was pleasantly surprised. Super easy ordering online and reasonable carry out time. I went with the standard bearer because the reviews pointed me that way and I was super happy. Really nice crust, not too thin or thick, not greasy, little wood fire flavor and the best part is it heated up awesome in the toaster oven the next day. Couldn't taste the honey but all around a great flavor. I also got the kale salad and that was super lackluster hence the star drop. It was just kale chopped up with Sind dried tomatoes. Dressing was good but it took me 4 days to finish the salad...and not because it was huge. I'll definitely be back and hope to try it in person!

    Dense bun and just okay spicy chicken
    Lisa N.

    If you're on a liquid diet, this is a great spot. Mixed drinks and beer were better than expected. The food... was subpar. I had the veggie Ruben. It had too many shredded carrots so it tasted more like a carrot sandwich and it was underwhelming. The spicy chicken sandwich was good but the bun was super dense. The chopped salad was okay but was definitely missing something. So go for the drinks and come in with a yummy that's not hungry.

    Good Vibes, Good Drinks and Great food. We dinned here at Roebuck at the time of broadway road lock during weekend. Ordered couple of beers and a pizza. Both drinks and food are great. Service was good and he even offered us to taste a sample beer when we had doubts. Sit outside if possible and enjoy fresh breeze outside and have a good time.

    Frozen Old fashioned
    Ted C.

    There's two photos of a Frozen Old Fashioned, this is not an error; I do often mistakenly double post photos for businesses. I can assure I did not. I enjoyed the Frozen Old Fashioned enough that I ordered another one. A little on the sweeter side but it definitely carries its booze and I had a brain freeze on number 2. My latest visit, saw that the frozen drink had changed to a Paloma, which I wasn't interested in tequila so I got their beers instead. I got two vastly different styles of beer and both of them were solid. I also ended up splitting two pizzas with a friend. The Margherita and the Standard Bearer, both of which were excellent. I was impressed because it's something that everyone does, but it's hard to make well, and the pizza was cooked well and the ingredients were balanced well, and not just a glorified cheese pizza like a lot of places do Margherita. The Standard Bearer has 'honey drizzle' I made a comment of how that's now a new thing on pizza and was a weird culinary cul-de-sac of hipster food but damn if it actually didn't boost the flavor of the pizza. It seemed to highlight the soppressata and mellow out the jalapeno a bit. I sat at the bar the first visit and the bartender there was great. When I had beer and pizza it was table service which also was good, definitely didn't feel neglected but also had time to catch up with my friend.

    I'm so happy we found Roebuck for pizza! The pizzas are delicious and super unique, and the constantly rotating selection of beers is always a bonus. The best pizza by far in my opinion is the Bank Raaber with broccoli rabe, and my bf loves the Standard Bearer. The house hot sauce and rosemary honey are game changers - I've never thought to put honey on pizza but I could easily use a whole bottle when I come here. To top is all off the atmosphere is a perfect mix of fun, trendy, and cozy, and I love watching the cooks make the pizzas in the back. Can't wait to come back soon!! Note to the restaurant: pleaaaase bring back the lime hard seltzer!!

    We LOVE Roebuck! Definitely a neighborhood staple for us. The Standard Bearer is my favorite pizza in the city but you can't go wrong with their burger either. Ambiance is casual which makes you feel like you can visit in your sweatpants or dressed up on a Friday night. Service is quick and friendly and they're always open to sharing their recommendations. Go check it out!

    We were very excited to try this new spot in Lakeview and we were not disappointed! The ambiance is very chill and calm when you first walk in. It would be a great place for a date or a get-together with friends. Very open and cozy. The staff were super friendly and helpful without being overbearing. I always appreciate that balance. My partner and I both got drinks. My husband got the Juicerassic Park IPA and he loved it! He is a big IPA fan and was in his happy place. I got the Rye, Dry, and Pie cocktail and it was perfect! It will be hard to try something new next time since I liked it so much! For pizza, I got the Standard Bearer and my husband got the Spicy AF. We both LOVED what we got. I will probably ask to go lighter on the jalapeños next time, but that is just a personal preference. This may be weird...but I GEEKED OUT over the homemade rosemary honey. It was sooooo delicious! My pizza already had some on it...but I definitely dipped my slices in some more because it was sooooo good! And the hot sauce was great too, it just didn't vibe as well with my pizza...but it did with my husband's ! Homemade infused honey and hot sauce may seem like a small thing...but to me it is a huge plus that shows the skill, care, and attentiveness of the restaurant! So thank you for this, Roebuck! Prices were good, the space was clean and friendly, and length of time was perfect. As the newest addition to the DryHop & Corridor family, we definitely look forward to adding this to our rotation! Great beer, great cocktails, great pizza, great dining experience: what more could you want? Get yourself over to Lakeview and try Roebuck ASAP!

    Slick new space in East Lakeview (not quite Boystown, definitely not Wrigley or Lincoln Park) on Broadway. Literally stumbled upon this place as we planned to go to DryHop and amidst conversation glanced at windows, saw door on the left, entered left sided door to approach a hostess...only to realize this wasn't DryHop. The place is a mirror image of its neighbor to the North! Not too surprising given same owners, but I literally didn't mean to dine here! That being said we stuck with it given we had heard good things online and LET ME TELL YOU - the food and drink and atmosphere are awesome. Tried the Back of the Yards pizza and some drinks. They have some really unique sounding pizzas but we went with this simple meaty 'Za as the first pass should always be the conservative test pass...which they pass w flying colors. Certainly want to expand on the offerings next time for sure, given everything tasted great. Only reason for lack of star - service. Don't get me wrong they were friendly and helpful but very slow and not always attentive (drinks go empty, slow to check in, bring the bill, etc).

    How big are the pizzas?

    I'd say the pizzas are definitely enough food for one person (I usually have one or two slices left over to take home) or enough to share for two people if you aren't too hungry.

    Do you have gluten free crust?

    All of our dough has gluten

The bartenders are always very friendly and check in often which is always appreciated. You're always immediately given little pretzels to snack on which I love as a unique touch. This time we both chose a more standard cocktail, but they also always have very unique and delicious seasonal cocktails which are always amazing! I would definitely recommend Elixir to anyone looking for a spot to grab a quick and delicious cocktail!

    On our first night in Boystown, Jamie W and I were pretty overwhelmed by the crowds at Sidetrack…read moreand Roscoe's, so we ended up coming here to make Jamie's virginal gay bar debut. It was the right move because it had the kind of chill vibe we were seeking after a long flight from SFO. Fortunately there were two seats at the bar with our names on them. Figuratively speaking. They had quite a signature cocktail list on hand, and we felt it was our obligation to try as many as we could. At least that was what we said to ourselves as the evening wore on. Each cocktail was $14. We started with a couple of familiar libations. Jamie ordered the Mint Julep, a delightfully Deep South mix of bourbon, simple syrup, and fresh mint (photo: https://yelp.to/u-td8LdPLj). I went further south with the Pineapple Margarita which was emboldened by a tropically potent mix of pineapple infused tequila, lime juice, and agave (photo: https://yelp.to/V-Sf6Q_2qK). We got a bit bolder with our second round and found mixed results. Jamie had the Not Your Mom's Daiquiri which amped up the margarita by blending pineapple-infused tequila with Bacardi 8-year rum. Along with fresh lime and simple syrup, this one definitely had more of a kick (photo: https://yelp.to/1ZijDf6wMV). However, my order, the Pontiac Pony, was a spicy miss for me. It was a rather oddball mix of apple-cinnamon infused vodka, pear liqueur, fresh squeezed lemon juice, and ginger beer (photo: https://yelp.to/5dQoFdzG98). There was just a harshness that didn't sit well on my tongue. Oh well, the mellow vibe was cool.

I mentioned this to the waiter and they remade it, which turned out great, so I'm hoping the salty dish was a one-off. 5/5 Our waiter was very friendly and attentive throughout. The restaurant itself is also casual upscale, so nice for most occasions. Avaspi exceeds expectations and I highly recommend this excellent Mediterranean restaurant.
