The Chicagoan
PennyandRusty P.

I've never been to Chicago before but I've often wanted to try a Chicago-style pizza. Known for their deep crust and ample amount of filling and sauce, it smacks in the face of all of the thin-crust pizzas that are readily available in the Vancouver area. And with Covid still going strong, there's really no better time to stuff your face with a ton of carbs. Now, to be fair, I never expected Slice of Chicago to be a truly authentic purveyor of Chicago-style pizzas. I mean, one look at the menu with their Butter Chicken and Tandoori pizzas and you should know better (perhaps this is due to their location in the Punjabi Market area of Vancouver). Still, we decided to order The Chicagoan ($23.99 for medium). At first glance, this might seem a bit expensive for a "medium" but don't be fooled... this is a massive pizza. The crust of the pizza rises up quite high and, at first glance, looks like it would be too much. However, it's probably needed to contain the toppings: pepperoni, ham, ground beef, mushrooms, green peppers, shrimp, pineapple, olives, onions, mozzarella cheese and their Chicago-style sauce. I've heard that Chicago-style pizzas are usually much more saucy and, hence, difficult to eat by hand without covering yourself with a tomatoey mess. Overall, the pizza was pretty good. The crust was somewhat thickish on the bottom (which is to be expected) but it had a nice crustiness to the bite. I also liked the variety of toppings on this pizza (although I wish they were piled a bit higher and with more sauce). While this may not be representative of a true Chicago-style pizza, it's still pretty good and definitely a filling meal.

This was the first time I tried this place. I've been to Chicago so I known what Chicago deep dish pizza taste like. Since I won't be in Chicago anytime soon I was craving for a deep dish pizza. I was very pleased with their pizza. It was really really good with lots of cheese and toppings. Above all their prices are very reasonable, way better than a lot of other pizza. places I've tried which hardly had any toppings. The guy who served me was really friendly and he even gave me a discount since I picked it up myself instead of going through Skip the Dishes. If you've never tried them, you really should give them a try. It's not like the authentic Chicago stuff but was was pretty good coming from Vancouver. 5/5

Chicago Deep-fried Pizza. Worth the upgrade? For an extra $4-5, you can upgrade a pizza to a deep dish pizza. What does this mean? You get a THICK crust on the perimeter of the pizza which allows for more toppings to be packed on. Unfortunately, they don't necessarily double the amount of meat included as it seemed like most of the money went towards extra cheese, onions and peppers. That said, the pizza does taste much better than a regular pizza because you get so much more sauce and toppings with each and every bite. The Marinara sauce here tasted very fresh and tangy. The onions were crisp and the cheese was velvety. The Chicken was a tad dry, probably because they were cut so thin. But, for $19, our small deep-dish chicken pizza was a bit overpriced. A savvy shopper could probably buy two small chicken pizzas at any competing pizza vendor and walk away with much more food.

The canadian deep dish pizza. . I kinda knew it was going to be a disappoinment

Wanted to try a real deep dish pizza. Found this place on google 4 of 5 star. It wasn't a real deep dish pizza. More like pizza with extra toppings. The crust was burnt and chewy. I know it's hard during covid times. But this place was just a disappoinment.

Mostly crust and not many toppings

How does this place have four stars? We were expecting deep dish pizza but instead got a crusty pizza. The crust of our "deep dish" super Hawaiian pizza made up like... half the pizza (see photos). Our pizza felt more like a piece of plain bread with sauce and some toppings.

The awesome Al Capone wall installed!!

Dropped by here with a bunch of friends. We heard they have deep dish pizza, and yes it is true, they do. We just had to try it since we've been searching for one in Vancouver for a VERY long time. I found out about this place because a friend lived around the corner, and told me there was a deep dish pizza place, and I was surprised! I had to come drop by, and try it out myself! Friends and we ordered 4 large deep dish pizzas in total to share between the 7 of us. The Butter Chicken, The AL Capone, The Super Hawaiian and The Meat Lover. By the end of the night, we couldn't finish everything, and had more pizza for the day after. We were stuffed, and I was dead by the end of the night. For sure the only way I can say is that their pizzas were more crust than the sauce for the deep dish. We maybe wanted more it to be Chicago Deep Dish, but I mean, this is the closest we are going to get in Vancouver though :P Overall, at the end of the night, we had so much food we were full and dead. Still worth coming to try the place out and had a great time. Might come back just to order more pizza for some friends for a party! Good place, and the owners were awesome.

A whole lot a pizza. Well worth it. Instant fav. Try the chicken with white sauce. Or any other selection. You will not be disappointed. Yelp says I should write a longer review, but what else to say... It's really worth it. This is the end of my average length review.

By far the best meal we've had in Vancouver all week!…read more We were recommended to check out Nightingale by our server the first night at the Fairmont. She was spot on with her description of the restaurant. However, she didn't tell us our mouths would be bursting from the flavors of every dish that came out. Brandon was our server. He directed us as far as what to order for my GF allergies, while having my wife enjoy what they were known for as she has no limitations when it comes to the menu. We started with the Kanpachi crudo and Lime cured hamachi. So refreshing and mouth watering at the same time. Best way to start a meal. Next up was the Baked japanese sweet potato dish. OMG! My mouth is still watering as I write this review. My main course was the Seared argentinian prawns, chorizo, butter potato. Best way to describe this dish - "I don't like chorizo, but that with that, is next level perfect" - my wife. She had their famous pizza - Spicy spianata salumi, piquillo pepper, san marzano tomato. Perhaps the best pizza she's ever had. Her words, not mine. We asked for the manager, as Brandon knocked it out of the park for giving us suggestions that were GF and must try's. I complimented his skills and taking his time with us to Catherine (the manager). She thanked us for pointing that out as we all know, managers don't typically get praises when running a restaurant. She brought us desert. Now mind you, it's not at all what I would have chosen as there was no chocolate in it. LOL. But the Salted caramel pot de crème, vanilla breton, and butterscotch...are you f@&king kidding me? I don't know who came up with all these amazing flavors and put them into one dinner, but this was by far the best meal we have had in Vancouver. And yes, I'd put it up against the Michelin star restaurant from last night. Kudos to Catherine and Brandon for making this an unforgettable experience!

Stopped by Nook on Denman Street for a casual Italian comfort food dinner…read more The Food The kitchen turns out straightforward, well-executed classics. We shared a pizza and the Rigatoni Boscaiola. The pizza crust had great leopard-spotting and a chewy, blistered edge, with the tomato sauce tasting bright and fresh rather than sugary. The rigatoni was cooked properly al dente, catching plenty of that savory, creamy mushroom-and-sausage sauce. It's thoroughly satisfying, though like many rich pasta dishes, the sauce leans on the heavier, saltier side toward the last few bites. We finished with a slice of their house tiramisu, which was airy, nicely soaked with espresso, and not overly sweet. The Service Lively, attentive, and down-to-earth. The staff handled the dinner rush smoothly, we were greeted warmly, menus were dropped right away, and wine recommendations were casual and honest. Even with a queue forming near the door, we never felt aggressively pushed out, though the pacing of the plates is definitely brisk. The Ambiance Snug, energetic, and very much a classic West End neighborhood joint. It's a tight room with warm lighting, rustic wood accents, and a bustling open kitchen/bar area that fills the space with good cooking aromas. Because tables are packed closely together, the noise level climbs quickly once the room fills up, so it feels more vibrant and buzz-y than quiet and intimate.

Great little place, aptly named. We loved the arugula salad. They left the meat…read moreout of the eggplant pasta at our request and it was perfect. Pizza rocked and so did the deserts. Everyone was so nice.
