Had to leave a review. Not sure how this place only has 3.3 stars. Great spot, always order the pizza and add extra sauce. Best I've had in the area. read more

Happy 2026! This is my first video review, and I'm starting strong with Vince's Pizza in Niles, IL. Hands down, this is the best pizza spot I've had in the Chicagoland area. In my opinion, it's as good as, if not better than, Pantaleone's in Denver, Colorado. The quality of the pizza is outstanding. It easily surpasses every slice I tried at Pizza Fest Chicago 2025. Vince uses incredibly fresh ingredients, and it shows in every bite. The crust is exceptional, honestly on par with some of the best pizza spots in NYC. Service is top-notch. Vince himself is the owner, chef, cashier, and server, which adds a personal touch you don't find often. He's friendly, welcoming, and happy to offer recommendations based on what you like. It's no surprise he's been a multiple-year Pizza Wars winner. On top of that, the pricing is unbeatable for the size and quality, easily better value than places like Rosati's, Viccino's Pizza Company, and Giordano's. The ambiance feels like stepping into an old-school neighborhood pizza shop. It's nostalgic, warm, and refreshing, something that's becoming harder and harder to find. Final recommendation: Try the pizza by the slice (it's massive basically a quarter of a pie), the Vince's Special, or the Meat Lovers. You'll leave more than satisfied and definitely wanting to come back. Highly recommend supporting this amazing small, local business. read more

Excellent Pizza! No doubt about it, we come here all the time when we are in Illinois. Best Pizza, good crust and chew. Very tastey and family owned and operated. The best pizza for all sporting or parties or Just because. Very clean inside and the staff are so polite. They sell pizza dough, too. Highly Recommended!! read more

Fantastic shrimp dinner and ribs! Love it Great food, great customer service , food done on time as promised. Larisa G. read more

I've been coming here for years now, and I love it! They have slices of pizza during the day, and it's a pretty huge slice. I also like the cheese fries - I always get them with a side of ranch. The owner is usually here during the weekdays, and he's super friendly and funny! They have a couple of dine-in tables but mostly a takeout spot. You get a lot of food, and their prices are reasonable. I highly recommend Vince's pizza! read more

Lunch with friends yesterday. Our server was Amazing. However, I ordered hand breaded Chicken STRIPS. First, they "looked" like 3 Tyson breasts right out of a bag. They were more like the chicken should be used for chicken parm. Very disappointed, as the last time we were there they were delicious. Fries were nothing special either, very mediocre meal to say the least. read more

food was perfect 2 pizza slices for only 5 dollers and it's very big and it's perfect and the guy is very nice and funny

It's good for kids. Not much cheese, not much sauce, but a good price. It's affordable which is extremely rare with these dumbass price gouging restaurants nowadays. Get your own marinara for the calamari. read more

Was still going here because of the pizza special, but it's not very good. Increased their prices 35% overnight. For this price, I'll go to Rosattis. Vinces pizza is always very "well done" almost burnt. Man behind the counter not very friendly either and shorted my change twice. read more

Delicious pizza! Great service, very friendly guy who works there. Coming here next time I need a pizza!

Food always good, with daily specials and great prices. They have a variety of choices, something for everyone.

The cheese pizza looked and tasted like it was purchased at the Walgreens frozen section next door. Yes, it was that bad. It was worth 1 try since it's pizza by the slice, but I definitely won't return. Please at least go to the Walgreens next door for pizza and heat it yourself. This is an avoid. read more

This place have the best pizza not to mention a great deal! We order some pizza for my son birthday and my guest ask me where did I order the pizza from. I told them the name and location. They were impressed with the quality of the pizza that they decided to take left overs home. It was 2 for 1 large pizza for a great price. Thank you for making my son birthday party a hit !! read more

When I was pulling up to the place my old man looked at me and asked "isn't there anywhere else we can go and get food ?" "Are you sure you'd like to go here? There aren't any others dining here, maybe we too should go elsewhere." It reminded me of a little kid pleading with his father to go somewhere else. I mean, it's because of my old man that I try out different places. I agree with him, it didn't look like much from the exterior. But... I had a Groupon and it was about to expire, so we were going! I originally purchased it thinking I could grab a pie here with a relation that lives nearby. After reading reviews, I decided to (kind of) go it alone. About what my old man said above. Pulling up we could see someone sitting outside the joint. It was one of the cooks, lounging on a chair. He sat completely uninterested and well, wasn't too inviting either. We ordered a small BBQ chicken pizza. Also inquired about their pasta favorites and were told to try the spaghetti arrabiatta. One of those ordered with meat sauce and decided to try their panzerotti which is like a calzone. They offered it fried or baked. The panzerotti can be filled with cheese and pizza sauce as well as any toppings you choose. Each extra ingredient has a $1 dollar up charge. The Spaghetti Arrabiata was good. Chunks of tomatoes and a rich but runny sauce with a bit of spicy to it but where was the meat sauce ?? Served over spaghetti. The BBQ chicken pizza was very average. The sauce tasted like a sweetened Open Pit. (Open Pit is a brand of barbeque sauce) I'd like to say the cheese was oily almost like it had been doused in a bit of butter. The chicken pieces were white meat but all of it was over cooked and dry. Blech. We ripped off every last piece of chicken and tossed it in the trash. I wouldn't be surprised to find out it was frozen cubes. The panzerotti was the worst for me. Above I mentioned that it can be ordered fried or baked. Thank goodness the counter lady suggested I go with baked. She'd also shared aloud that the oil in the fryer looked dark. (UGH!) After watching Gordon Ramsey shows a grievance like new or used vegetable oil in the fryer.. I feel as though if a customer orders something fried they would be willing to change the oil and fry it in fresh oil right? Well, it was baked and it wasn't good. The sauce was okay. The cheese was bountiful and tasteless. That typical white cheese that's so chewy and gross in amount that its an overbearing addition. We added sausage but couldn't taste it. The leftovers are still sitting, I should probably clean the fridge soon. I wish the employees cared more. It looks like it used to be something decades ago. I like the idea behind the 2 for 1 pizzas. The price of the pizza essentially pays the cost of two pies. Their sandwiches and pastas are affordable and their pizza pricing is comparable to any of the fast food pizza chains. Unfortunately there is something lacking in every department. Until it's fixed, this is an average pizza joint. Located in a strip mall with parking. Pizza slices are available. read more

Friendly service. The cheese pizza and chicken alfredo pasta were great. I'll order from here again.

Tried to order from here - what an ordeal. If you dont order EXACTLY as listed on their website or menu, try $13 extra for ONE extra topping - and the woman answering couldn't even explain how she changed the billing! I had recently moved into area and was excited to try this place when i saw they had panzerottis, but after this experience idk if i will try again... Not sure it would be worth the hassle. If i do - I'll be sure to order the items exactly as listed or i will drop in for a slice - from some of the reviews on here it sounds like this place might be okay, they just need to be more flexible and realize quite a few customers might want to add or remove a topping, its not the end of the world for them if they do, nor is it time to gouge the customer by over $10 for one topping. 2 of the other nearby pizza places near here are good and REALLY good, so for this smaller family style old school place stepping up customer service might help business. I wish them luck. read more

Good pizza & Great deals. (2 for 1 pizzas, $8.50 Lg. pizza Mon, Tues, & Wed., and FREE 10" pizza or 1L soda for orders over $20). They've always been real friendly every time I order from here and quick. It's not the greatest pizza, but for the money and service, it'll do just fine. read more

I'm surprised at some of the positive reviews for Vince's, seriously you folks have to venture out to try other pizza joints! We ordered here for one reason, 2 for 1 deal. The only issue is, its not really a deal, because the price you pay for "1" is not for "1" but for 1.5. Do the owners not really know what 2 for 1 means? Means for the price of 1 pizza, not two different prices for the same pizza. Ripoff. And to make matters worse, the pizza wasn't good at all. Flavorless, sauce tasted like something out of a can from Aldi's. To be quite honest, I would have rather thrown a pizza in the oven than ordered from Vince's. Phone manners could also improve. The lady taking down my order put me on hold several times, told me pizza would be ready in 10 minutes. I thought 10 min was a bit quick, so I confirmed asking her again "only 10 minutes?", she said "yes, 10". I get there 20 min later, and the pizza takes an additional 20, so 40 minutes total, not 10. This place could care less if you return, they got you once, and you leave with a feeling of "so long sucker". Guess what, jokes on you Italian wanna be's. read more

We love Pizza, just not Vince's. We used a Groupon, and called them. Between all the shouting back and forth in the background it was hard to hear the woman who took our order. When we picked it up and brought it home, we kept thinking that they left out a spice, or salt, or SOMETHING. I did not eat that much of the pizza. On our 16 inch "Vince's Special" (a "loaded" pizza) slices were about 2 inches square. A strange way to slice a pizza. Yes, they had a LOT of topping for the price, but if the flavor is way off, who cares? Plus we got a 25 cent FEE for using a charge card for the remainder of the balance after Groupon. What the....???? It's in a small dive of a Mall next to Walgreens. MEH. My final answer. read more

It's a dive take out pizza place, but the pizza's not bad and they have good deals. We're not talking about gourmet pizza, but twenty bucks will feed plenty. Also, the person answering the phone will help you get the best deal. They have a bunch of coupons and meal combinations. The pizza itself is a little greasy, but the crust is thin and pretty crispy. Not bad if you're entertaining and want to buy some cheap pizza. read more

Delgada corteza de la pizza es asombroso! Si eres miembro de la northside lejos de la ciudad y se cri en la pizza de Barry's Spot, y que prefera la delgada corteza, you'll LOVE este Vince's Pizza! Mi esposo y yo crecimos en Edgewater y en Barry en un sorteo, y dos de nosotros comparar la delgada a las suyas. Le dieron libre postres (Peppridge Farms cosas), con su orden y con un 2 x 1 especiales que vale la pena totalmente. Si se encuentra en el Cercano NW burbs, es totalmente valen la pena captar algunos. (Que realmente no puede comer all, creo que todos ellos han de un cuadro) Craig Wolff read more

We ordered pizza and pasta and it was never delivered. No call back or anything. We tried to call them several times that night and the following morning and no one answered. Now we have to call the bank to get our money back. Save your time and money and order from a restaurant that actually serves food! read more

First time getting Vinces pizza, got a large cheese pepperoni. definitely worth your time also the value is 100% there. great taste, good cheese, crust is crunchy, and sauce very good as well. realistic one out of 10, 8.4 read more

Great deal! 2 slices and a can of pop for $4. The lady behind the counter was also very nice. I will definitely be coming back.

The pizza is good but the service is just decent, if it's a phone in order is gonna be a bad time but if it's person to person then things go pretty well read more

You know that old saying about restaurants, and how the little ones always make the best food? No? OK, I'll tell you. The littlest restaurants always make the best food! Vince's Pizza is no exception. The dining area is what I would call cozy, with 3 tables and a few chairs so you can wait for your takeout order. While there is a counter that you can walk up and order from, you can also just have a seat and someone will come out and take your order. My experience dining in the restaurant was spectacular! The waitstaff was cordial, and the food was excellent. The pizza has a crispy crust and the sausage is perfect! The fries are battered and cooked to perfection! A huge slice of pizza(1/4 of a 15") that comes with a 12 oz. soda and an order of fries(a lot of fries), and only costs $5.75 usually tastes like cardboard. I don't know how they do it, but Vince's Pizza has to be one of the best places I can think of for great food with great prices, backed by a great staff. read more

tried calling to get a quote for a party and the first words out of the woman's mouth after I politely greeted her are "get to the point!" no thanks...I will never order from there. read more

TERRIBLE Experience. I had a Groupon for this place and went to dine in during lunch. I had called ahead to place the order and in doing so, the phone experience should have warned me it wasn't worth it. I asked for 2 small pizzas, 1 cheese, 1 with an extra topping. One extra topping on one small pizza is $2.50! I couldn't believe it. When I tried to confirm the price discrepancy, the woman answering the phone grew more agitated and never directly answered me. She kept talking about different scales. She then told me another call was coming in so that she had to go, and I could get the price when I came in. Um, ok. So much for customer service. When we got there, the place was empty except for the not so nice woman who had answered the phone, and a cook in back. The woman was just as unpleasant in person. I again asked if she could tell me how much the one extra topping is and for reasons beyond me, I couldn't get her to give a straight answer. Instead, she started pointing to different things on the wall. Am I crazy to want to know what I am being charged for? She then yells, "HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GOING TO ASK ME THE PRICE?" To which I said, "Until you give me a straight answer and stop dodging it." Crazy woman. It's not like the receipt is itemized. She left at soon after to make a delivery, so this piece of sunshine might show up at your door. In terms of the actual food, eh. My friend got the fettucine alfredo and said it was terrible. Something about it tasting like it had been left in the fridge. I didn't taste test it, but a second friend did and agreed. They couldn't eat it beyond a bite a piece and essentially left the whole thing untouched. The pizza we got was ok. But all in all, doesn't matter because none of us are coming back after the experience we had. read more

Thin crust pizza is awesome! If you're from the far northside of the city and grew up on pizza from Barry's Spot, and preferred the thin crust, you'll LOVE this Vince's Pizza! My husband and I grew up in Edgewater and at at Barry's a lot and both of us compare the thin to theirs. They give you free desserts (Peppridge Farms stuff) with your order and have a 2 for 1 special that's totally worth it. If you're in the Near NW burbs, it's totally worth picking some up. (you really can't eat there, I think they have all of one table) read more

This is not a place worth ordering from. First of all they mess up your order and you don't get everything delivered you paid for, and when you call to tell them the broad that answers the phone is rude and calls you names as she hangs up the phone because she thinks you hung up already. Then it takes them an hour later to fix their screw up. Eating the pizza is like chewing on a cardboard box with no taste. So there you have it , no lies or B.S. just the truth. read more

The only place I'll eat thin crust pizza from!!! The crust is crispy and the sausage has great flavor. They don't skimp on toppings.

I am purely giving this place 4 stars for the prices. Their prices are quite reasonable. I like their pizza, not the best I have had but it is average. They do have other things on their menu as well. The staff is friendly and helpful too. I would go back. read more

The 1st time i ordered the delivery woman could not walk up my 4 steps, the 2nd time she could not get out of the car. I have empysema that is why i have delivery. The food is good, just not the delivery read more

I am writing this post before i even eat the food the older gentleman that runs the place was yelling and swearing at the cook about him making a 14inch pizza instead 16inch very unprofessional i will not be back read more

My family has been ordering from Vinces over 10 years and I haven't been sick of it yet. We always get their 2 for 1 large special. For a local family owned pizza place, their prices aren't bad. You can get two large pizzas for a little over 20 dollars. The only strike I have against them is their inconsistency. Sometimes, the pizza they make is amazing, and sometimes, its just a little above average. Make sure to always order the pizza well done so it has a nice little crisp! read more

Ordered for carry out. This was good pizza. Not fantastic, but good pizza. We had thin crust. Price was right. Pizza was hot and good. I'd go back. read more

$3.50 for a diet pepsi and two large slices of yummy cheese pizza? Yes please!

I had this pizza 2 years ago and it was one of the best I've ever had! If I lived closer I would be a regular customer :)

Wow lmao!!! Never thought I'd have to write a review like this. I called Vince's today to ask if they catered or did football size party pizzas ...the lady on the phone got pissed off that I didn't answer her first question of "delivery or pickup". I simply replied with "hi I actually just had a question ." Her response was super rude and was like " what? You have a question !? "And then I asked her the question and she kept saying the same thing over and over again so I hung up because I didn't want to argue again. This woman called me back on her personal phone !!!!!!!!!! And harassed me . I didn't answer so she left me a voicemail !!! Omgosh how unprofessional NEVER EVER COMING HERE AGAIN AND TELLING EVERYONE I KNOW TO NEVER COME HERE read more

My dad is one picky eater and he loves this place for the thin pizza. It is absolutely delicious!!! Thin and crispy and the toppings are always fresh!! read more
