    Pizza
    Ignacio S.

    Great and flavorful pizza at a affordable price per slice. The Slice is my go-to spot in Chicago for a quick, solid pizza fix. The crust is perfectly crisp, the sauce has that tangy, homemade flavor, and they don't skimp on toppings. The staff is friendly and the place has a chill, local vibe. Great for a casual lunch or late-night bite. Highly recommend the pepperoni and the white slice.

    Had this post concert. Was literally 5 stars amazing. Soooo flavorful and super quick too even at 11pm. They had the "everything in it" option. Which had olive oil, basil, hot honey, and a couple other things. Was honestly the best pizza I've had in Chicago. Would totally come back . Got the classic pepperonis and heard good things about the Italian beef option for next time. Should have got two slices! Affordable as well for the thick piece you are getting.

    Some of the best pizza I have had in Chicago! I love the thick grandma style squares, the slices are huge and the crust is both fluffy and crispy. I walked in around 6 on a Wednesday evening and the space was pretty empty but there are so many tables for eating in too which is nice. I got my pizza to go and it came in a perfect half size pizza box which was also a nice touch. I love that it's the same owners as the shop next door too. I got the vodka slice and the pepperoni slice, obviously with "everything on it." The addition of the hot honey was phenomenal, and I can't decide which I liked more because they were both so good. For around $5 a slice too this is extremely affordable! I will definitely be back.

    Great pizza! Loved it and the family that runs it are awesome! Very cool area as well worth a walk if you are going to a Cubs game.

    This place is such a gem! I'm happy there's a locally owned spot in the neighborhood that regularly offers pizza by the slice. It's Grandma Style Pizza and incredible! I have never had Grandma Style Pizza until I came to The Slice Shop. I usually get a side of ranch too. You order at the counter and can order to-go or grab a table. They also have a large variety of sodas available. Every employee I've interacted with has been kind and helpful. My experience has been wonderful each time! This is definitely a spot you should tell your family and friends about!

    Pretty good. Loved the customer service and music. I added garlic and basil to my pizza. Next time I will skip the basil as I didn't care for the flavor that it added. Would try again

    Pretty good pizza. I saw in the window that it was featured on barstool sports and watched the video. I thought it was Detroit style pizza originally which has a fried bottom layer but I guess it's grandma style-Sicilian. Which the bread taste is more like artisanal bread like a ciabatta. It's about a half inch thick. They have their standard topics garlic oil, pecorino, red pepper, hot honey, & fresh basil which was all tasty. I got two slices of pepperoni with everything. Pretty tasty, on the bready side but good. I'd probably be ok with one slice. Dine in or take out. Service was pretty fast too. Great alternative between deep dish and thin pizza. Its was pretty good and worth giving a try.

    Italian beef w crushed red pepper

    Not sure if this particular slice I had was extra special or what, but this was such a satisfying slice of italian beef - all around in texture, flavor and value! I recall coming here when they first opened and while good then, seemed even better now. I enjoy the "everything" topping option. They have great offerings and affordable as well. You wouldn't think much from an extension of the convenience store next door esp. choosing to do pizza in the land of pizza, but they got something good (and different)! Their family run staff are always such a delight as well. It was just what I needed for a late lunch that didn't ruin my dinner. It was also a good sign when even coming in at an odd hour around 4pm, that a rush of various customers piled in shortly behind me. Definitely will be incorporating The Slice Shop in the za mix. Btw, don't sleep on their subs either!

    Great service. Great pizza slice options and ample seating. Nice decor inside the restaurant. Close to the CTA train.

    Food - the best pizza in Chicago and I have tried so many places who claim it, they simply and quietly - just do it! Crispy and flavorful crust, tomato sauce made with fresh tomatoes and amazing olive oil sprinkled on top just the way grandma made it. Service was fast friendly and knowledgeable. Ambience what it should be for a by the slice pizza place - clean seating area. Best pizza everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Pizza is so good. Crispy but not dough, amazing flavor and value. I get a slice of pepperoni and buffalo chicken whenever I'm in the area.

    After what felt like 5 years to try this place, I FINALLY got to try the famous burger here! Spark…read morenotes: this place is definitely worth the wait! My friend and I dedicated a day where we would just put our name down and however long it took we would wait haha. We drove into the city which took and hour and we put our name down and waited an hour before we were called. The weather was great so we just walked around the west loop area. We started with a half size of the green salad and a half size of the roasted bone marrow. The house salad is super refreshing. A lot of vinegar in the dressing which I personally really like. Also tasted some fennel which was an interesting flavor. The roasted bone marrow is the winner of the night. I would come back to Au Cheval for this alone. It was paired with a thick slice of Texas toast and a beef cheek marmalade and it is seriously the PERFECT balance of flavors. Fatty. Sweet. Buttery. Literally insane and this is a must order! Then came the famous burger. My friend and I each ordered a single cheeseburger with the egg and bacon added. Something to note is that the single cheeseburger actually has 2 patties and the double cheeseburger has 3 patties (3/4lbs of beef). The presentation itself is beautiful and makes you just not want to eat it haha. The burger itself is so decadent and hefty with the burger patties, cheese, egg and bacon. I'll be honest, I needed some more pickles or just something to cut all the fattiness of the burger. There were pickles in the burger and it is served with a huge pickle spear. But I still was itching for some more bitterness/acid to balance the flavors. It was so decadent, I couldn't finish it all. All in all, I would definitely come back and order the burger again and would recommend it to anyone! We ordered a side of fries which came with their garlic aioli. The fries were cooked to perfection. Super crunchy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside and piping hot! The garlic aioli is perfect and have no notes for it. We also were treated to a vanilla scoop with chocolate sauce which was the perfect cap to our meal! Our waitress was so friendly and my friend and I loved her! She was so sweet and genuine. Hog Salt restaurants never fail with their service!

    Au Cheval is likely the most coveted restaurant destination for out-of-towners…read more "Best Burger" "it's so delicious with the egg" "I'm glad you're ending your trip with Au Cheval". I'd like to throw in my own quote into the gauntlet: "it's ok". It sounds harsh but Our burger patty was noticeably dry. The bread... was also dry. The egg and bacon add-ons were good but as a whole, the burger was missing the core aspect. The bread being dry I can justify by knowing that Au Cheval makes it a point to make everything gluten-free (or so someone told me). I think that's cool but not necessarily what I came looking for. I actually noticed prior to our trip from photos that the buns looked noticeably arid but I gave them no heed because of all of the praise. And I can give them the benefit of the doubt that we were there on a Sunday night, so potentially not the most quality inventory (although I personally don't think that's a great excuse). The service and the ambiance were on point! If you're wondering if there's a required attire (no shorts or flip flops) I wouldn't fret, the atmosphere is a lot more casual despite self-describing as an "intimate" setting. It's definitely more intimate than a normal burger restaurant, with dim lighting and isolated booths but what you're wearing isn't going to dictate how other guests and staff feel. I would cover up anyways just cause there was ac running. I told my friend who moved from Nyc to Chicago and he said he felt the same. And one of our couple friends were surprised to hear the patty being dry, so... off day?
