After seeing the video on Facebook my wife insisted we try it. We opted for the Thursday Buffet. Starts at 3:30 which meant a trek into the city during rush hour...meh, wasn't so bad if you know your way around. We arrived and met Vince at the bar (not actually the real Vince but the dude in the videos), nice guy. The buffet was pretty darn good. The pizza which was what I wanted to sample first was very good. The meatballs were outstanding, the Fettucine Alfredo was awesome and cheesy, the Mostaccioli in Genevive sauce, different but also very good. Definitely an old school, in the city Italian joint. All you can eat for $16.99, pretty good deal. We'll be back but maybe for the Tuesday sandwich buffet. read more

Been craving a true Chicago tavern-style pie and Vince's delivered. I had the sausage thin crust and it was on point, crisp, well-cooked, and exactly the kind of neighborhood pizza Chicago does best. I know friends in Clearing have a long history with this place, but this was my initiation, and I loved it. The dining room is comfortable, classic, and the staff is genuinely friendly. A bunch of them have been working here forever, and it shows in the service. Worth noting, Tuesday is half-price pizza, so it's a perfect night to test the waters. Follow them on Facebook for updates and specials. Family-owned, still run by Vince's sons, and it feels like it. I'll be back. I can't wait to try the buffet. read more

Vince's Pizza - Small Sausage Thin Crust - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Don't let the folksy facebook videos fool you ! The food is bland , the Italian sausage is dry and almost tasteless , the meat balls are bland the spaghetti and lasagna is the same , ( homemade bread ) again tasteless nothing about this place is worth going back a second time ! (Homemade dessert ) if you like boxed mix and can frosting ! Pizza is fair , not worth what they charge and a small soda 3:50 MANDATORY ! read more

Sure the FB videos are cute. But the food is just meh.. they rely on lots of salt and sugar to flavor their sauces. The soups are made with leftovers. The "homemade " Italian breads are flavorless. The sausage is always dry. The pizza crust is rock hard, yes thin but unlike crackers it's tough. But the "homemade " deserts are the worst! And idk what constitutes homemade to the guy but these are definitely box cake mixes! They advertised carrot cake but it was definitely a boxed chocolate cake mixes.. idk maybe they threw a carrot in there so they could call it carrot cake! The bread pudding is NOT bread pudding! It's leftover flavorless bread soaked in milk and sugar. It's not baked and it's just some kind of bread mush. Save yourself the calories and don't take it. I've gone for the advertised buffet and really stayed for the entertainment! The waitresses are loud and they yell across the dining room for whatever they want or need. And they have argued with their customers about paying which should have been done in a low voice or privately. So if you want to hear everyone's life stories and you find the yelling entertaining, then yeah go for that. But the food, nah. I'll pass. read more

Family favorite!! A lot of childhood memories are in this restaurant and the food is still really good!! I wished they would add more new elements to the dining room to make it newer for people to sit down inside. I love their pizza and pizza bread!! Definitely a good place to have parties! Been doing that for years!! read more

This place is a true neighborhood gem. We saw their video on Facebook advertising their buffet and had to come. Ate here on a Thursday for their AYCE pasta buffet and it was amazing. Everything was delicious. Minestrone soup a chock full of veggies and flavor. Tavern style pizza (sausage and pepperoni) were good. Pastas were amazing: Rigatoni in vodka sauce, Bucatini in grandmas neck bone sauce, Mostaciolli genovese, Fettuccine w/ ham & peas alfredo, plus delicious sausage & meatballs in red sauce. There was also homemade Italian bread and focaccia plus cakes and bread pudding. But don't sleep on the cold salads, which were phenomenal and so flavorful: corn salad, potato salad, bean salad and my two favorites, cucumber salad in Italian dressing and eggplant caponata. Honestly next time we're there I might ask if I can buy some eggplant caponata to go! And buffet a reasonable $15.95 plus a drink. Staff were so nice as well. Lovely family neighborhood restaurant. Wish it was closer to where we live but We'll definitely be back! Here's a link to their reel showing the pasta buffet: https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1AyBmbd63v/?mibextid=wwXIfr read more

Ive been eating at Vinces since the early 80's and the food is always 5 star consistent and delicious.

This place has been the best food at the best prices. Been going here for years so worth it

Best breaded steak. I think this breaded steak is 3X better than Ricobene's. I wish I remembered to take a picture.

Decent pizza when you want to change things up a little in the neighborhood the delivery is quick and super friendly

Amazing pizza! Extra thin crust, well done. Service excellent from ordering to delivery. Excellent neighborhood pizza

The person that takes your order is VERY BUT VERY RUDE. Puts you on hold for a very long time and when you try to ask a question about their pizza, he makes you feel like you're asking a wrong question and talks back to you. I do not see nothing wrong with asking a question about their pizza, it was a simple question but it bother him that I asked. All I have to say I do not work there it should be normal for a customer to ask a question and more if they don't work there, I never met such a rude person who doesn't care about your order he did not even care to ask for my name for my order and just hang up on me and never had my order ready. At the end of the day I just left to a different place. Just save your money and go somewhere that will actually care about you as a customer. If I can give this 0 stars I would, 1 star is too generous. read more

I've been a customer and fan of Vince's Pizza dating back to the early '70's. My go-to order is a large cheese and sausage--well done. I recently saw that Vince's offers an extra-thin crust and decided to give it a try. I was absolutely blown away at how delicious this pizza was. I ordered extra thin, cheese and sausage, easy cheese. I would put that pizza up against any pizza in Chicago. Thanks for the great pizza and all the wonderful memories over the years. read more

The food is great, not just the pizza. They usually have outstanding specials and I love their veal francese. Service is usually very good and the owners will often come out to check on the customers. One of my favorite places near midway airport. read more

Love Vince's!! The ease of parking with plenty of parking available in the adjacent lot to the simple, vintage interior and friendly staff ! The service was prompt and the deep dish pizza was the best I ever had! The price reasonable, too! Recommending to everyone I know! The BEST!! read more

Pizza is ok. But here to say that whoever they have picking up the phone to take orders is one rude old man. Sounds miserable and really makes you think twice before calling to place an order. read more

Always great food at prices that are very affordable. My family has tried everything from appetizers, to sandwiches, pizza, to pasta- everything is top notch with plenty of extras. read more

Had Vince's pizza and gotta say the pizza is unique and delicious. The sausage is home made and loved that it taste delicious cold too. Highly recommend you try it out. I enjoyed it well done so it's extra crisp. read more

Really good pizza. I went here from a recommendation from my coworker. It did not disappoint. I ordered a simple sausage XL carry out. I did meet the owner. He gave me a brief history of the restaurant so there is a lot of history here. I highly recommend going here if you are in the area. read more

Definitely would not recommend. The old guy that takes your orders is extremely rude like that's the only pizza joint in the world. The pizza wasn't even a ten to start with so save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Am trying old school pizza around my neighborhood Vince's still holds up ! Lots of toppings great crust read more

Disappointing experience at the lunch buffet. It's $10/person which is fairly cheap but the selection and quality of food definitely reflects the price. The pizza was decent. Other than that, the stuffed peppers were overcooked, minestrone soup was made from canned vegetable, mostaccioli had no flavor. At this point, I'm upset I even have to pay the bill. read more

This pizza is so good I just had the last piece for breakfast. Not too sweet sauce but not too zesty either. Good sausage. Even better crust! So good! This might be our regular spot, wish we would've found it years ago! read more

Food undercooked. My little meatballs was pink smh ridiculously small not worth your money. My calzon and onion rings was still raw the dough and cheese of my calzon was half cooked really gross the dough was slimy and cheese was cold still, the onion rings wet inside and cold. My so called rib tips was mainly fat & wing was just awful unflavored and the chicken was black inside. Don't eat here had to recook everything myself read more

I really wanted Obbies, but they were closed so I Yelped this spot in my bookmarks.. They were the only pizza spot open around 12pm. The place is actually a lounge/pizzeria/restaurant type of place. Looks old, but sturdy. When I got there they were actually closed until 2pm, the guy was just nice enough to take my order since he was there! 1 Star for Stellar service. Of course I ordered sausage/mushroom extra sauce well done. He said 30mins, but it seemed faster. I used their restroom while waiting & it was clean too. The problem came in when I got the pizza & it was light skin!!!!! I only like Brown cheese!!!!!! The visual alone ruined the pie. It was fresh & hot. Ingredients were plentiful, but the crust wasn't good & the sauce was bland. The sausage was good & there was plenty sauce.. So unfortunately the pizza was a 2 star rating to me, but his service got him a 3. read more

Some of the best pizza in that area if you are around i recommend as a pizza snob myself this a close 9/10

Good pizza, fresh ingredients, always hot, pretty good value. They have a really good homemade Giardiniera, good with the piazza and the beef... miss the fact you used to be able to eat there and enjoy a drink, now it's only carry out. read more

Currently my favorite pizza spot in Chicago. Excellent crust (flavor and consistency). Great pizza sauce. And extra perk, the giardiniera they serve is awesome. Made the mistake of ordering XL rather than family size. XL was plenty to feed two and then have a few pieces left over the next day....with family size we wouldn't have had to battle for the last piece :) read more
