    Chicago Fire (Downtown Sacramento, CA): Deep Dish Delight Dessert
    Savannah R.

    I visited Chicago Fire in Downtown Sacramento, CA [2416 J St] on Wednesday, 06/10/26, around 2:15 PM during lunchtime. I ordered the following: * Personal Sized Deep Dish Pizza with Canadian Bacon, Salami and Spinach * 4pcs Boneless Wings (Buffalo Sauce) with Celery Sticks and Ranch * Deep Dish Delight Dessert * Apple Juice I must say that the deep dish pizza was addictive with each bite. I loved the fresh ingredients and the execution of the deep dish with the crust. The wings were flavorful and celery sticks were nicely crisp. The deep dish delight dessert met the sweet tooth craving. Lastly, the apple juice was refreshing. The interior of the restaurant was inviting and had nice decor all throughout. The customer service was pleasantly friendly. The restroom was clean and well-maintained. Overall, Chicago Fire's food was beyond dynamite. I was satisfied from start to finish. I will definitely be returning here in the future.

    Look at that cheese pull!

    So me and the significantly better half Cathi went to Chicago Fire this morning. We were the only customers in the well appointed restaurant on J St. Our server, Natalie B., sat us in a booth and took our drink orders. She offered Cathi a Shirley Temple and Cathi hadn't had one in a zillion friggin years so she said heck yeah. Natalie says she loves making them. It was delightful! All red and sweet and bubbly and loaded with cherries. We ordered a deep dish personal pizza, Caesar salad and cheesy garlic bread with marinara sauce. The Caesar was perfect. Crispy romaine, crunchy croutons, Parmesan cheese and dressing. It paired so well with the hot cheesy garlic bread. That bread was not ashamed to be garlicky. It said, "I am garlic. Hear me roar!" The bread and salad could've been a meal all itself. The pizza had a beautiful thick crust, San marzano tomatoes... And a magnificently long cheese pull. Three words: dee- lish- ous. Okay, three syllables! The TVs in the restaurant were showing an infomercial. Really? We asked Natalie if she could change it to anything else. She put on Wimbledon and that was cool. The restaurant has a nice fun, low key vibe and that infomercial was killing it. As we were finishing up a lovely meal another couple came in. I don't know why more people weren't in there. A delicious Chicago style Italian lunch for two for $23. Of course we split it because I had bariatric surgery and can no longer work servers to the bone bringing plate after plate. This is a great lunch spot. Don't sleep on it. Capone would be proud. Natalie went above and beyond. If you get her as a server, you'll have a great meal.

    Located on J street, This is my favorite Sacramento Stuffed Pizza and usually my first choice when the wife and kids wanna treat me to something special. It has a nice decor inside and plenty of seating for dining, as well as a bar area if you wanna just hang and watch a game while enjoying an adult beverage . In this instance, we got our order to go, calling ahead to allow the extra time the deep dish requires. Went with a large deep dish Stockyard and a side order of Pesto chips. Love the pizza, primarily a stuffed pie with loads of cheese and toppings under a thin layer of dough topped with a zesty tomato sauce . Pesto chips are pretty much a thin dough pizza covered in cheese and pesto and baked to crispy perfection. Easily my favorite Pizza place in Sacramento

    What a sleeper for lunch! Stopped by one Sunday with my mom for an impromptu lunch date. Service was great, food was delicious, and vibes were good. I ordered the personal deep dish, salad and a drink special (about $14) and mom ordered the spaghetti, salad, and drink special (similar price I believe). What a great deal! The food was great. Highly recommend for a high quality and affordable lunch.

    I went to this restaurant with some co workers for lunch. When we entered the restaurant we were greeted by staff. Staff were friendly and very helpful. I ordered the cub club lunch special pizza and Caesar salad. The cub club pizza was delicious and Caesar salad was the perfect combination to the pizza. The ambiance was customer friendly and has plenty of space in the restaurant. The restaurant has a phenomenal menu choices.

    We came during a downtime, possibly even the first guests of the day. We ordered a salad and a deep dish pizza and we waited a while as the deep dish usually takes a while to cook. Unfortunately we got the news they put pineapple on the pizza and that was a big no for me. Not a fan. However we weren't in a rush and they offered to make us a new one free of charge if we wanted to wait. We decided to wait and it was very good pizza. They came and checked on us consistently so service was very kind and hospitable. Atmosphere was dark but it was on theme with restaurant. Very quiet.

    Wow for lunch specials! We go to Chicago Fire all the time, but we saved big today with their lunch specials! Personal Abe Froman, salad, and a drink for $13!! That's probably about the same as Pizza Hut, but you know it's not the same. Abe Froman? Every time. Service was super pleasant, and the atmosphere the same tasteful space to enjoy top shelf pizza. I just keep on coming back, and it's no surprise why.

    It was our first time here, and we were very impressed! Not too busy on a Sunday night, but the server did get pulled over to a 14-top table. For the great vibes and food here, I don't blame them! The deep dish has a taller crust than it fills but the bite of the cheese and toppings is absolutely delicious. The crust has a great flavor too, but the real star of the night was the buffalo boneless wings! The meat was juicy and fresh, and the breading was unique and crispy, not like typical frozen boneless wings with thick breading. The buffalo sauce at medium was perfect - so tasty and not too spicy. We inhaled them so quickly, I don't have a picture for them. Guess we'll just have to revisit!

    I've been here a couple of times, most recently for a quick lunch. In previous visits I've been for an event and also for small group lunch. Service has been great for all the visits! Food also delicious. For the birthday event we had a bunch of pizza options and they were all great. Today we had the lunch specials - persona hand tossed and the combo lunch with a personal pizza (went with deep dish), salad, and drink for $14. The fries appetizer was very tasty- strong garlic, which we love. The salad was good and the pizzas came out quick and were also delicious. Recommend.

    On a rainy Saturday night, there was no wait to dine here. It was half full, and it felt very cozy inside. We were greeted by the hostess, and our server was nice. I was here to try the deep dish pizza, and they had a small selection of specialties. I ended up getting the small 10" Great Chicago Fire, which was the spicy one. I asked for habanero on the side as well. I loved the spiciness! Small deep dish pizzas here go for $26.55, and I think this can feed two people easily. They cut our pizza into four quarters, and I ended up only eating one slice. I think the crust has a texture like a fruit tart. It's very buttery and kinda crunchy. Our pizza was part of the "pizza for two" deal, which included three items: a pizza, wings or salad, and dessert. We got the boneless extra hot wings, which was good - but could have been spicier! For dessert, the mini deep dish delight was the right choice. It was a scoop of vanilla ice cream over a warm chocolate chip cookie, and it was gone faster than you could say "pizza"! -No parking lot, find street parking -Unsure about free wifi -Credit card accepted -Bathroom available -TVs play sports games

    Thin crust combo
    Pat L.

    This is another first time here for pizza in Sacramento visiting friends and at first it was Chicago so naturally I thought heavy dough and high carbs. No it has plenty of options to choose from. We opted for what said to be a cracker thin crust and honestly I was thinking yeah right but tried it out anyway. The crust is actually very thin and crispy. So this was a combination with olives. Just know we're going back.

    First visit to Midtown and in the mood for pizza. Very quiet when we walked in to the pint there was no host in the front. We sat in the bar area. The server suggested a drink that was actually a great combo to the original mojito. Used Basel and vodka. I prefer this combo. I appreciate the suggestion. The wings were tasty. They had a small outside crunch. I liked them because they weren't very saucy. The thin crust was perfect. It wasn't soggy. The ingredients were fresh and enjoyed the taste. We really enjoyed the meal. Definitely visit again when in town.

    Always have to come for the deep dish stuffed pizza! We came on new years day so it wasn't packed. A good amount of people, still we were immediately seated and the kings game was on. Started with some beers and greek fries. Yum. Love the amount of garlic on them and the lemon option - yes! We ordered the half combo and new spin n shroom deep dish/stuffed pizzas. Those take longer to bake so we were sure to get the order in quickly. However with it being slower that day, the wait for it was like half. When it came, it wasn't too hot. Temp was good to perfectly chow down,. though I personally would have liked it hotter and still run the risk of burning the top of my mouth from impatience. But I understand and all the bites were deelish. Service was great. Thank you for the visit. Will need to come with more folks so we can enjoy wings and a dessert cookie too!!

    Can you make vegan pizzas?

    They make vegetarian pizzas but I don't think they make vegan pizzas. I'm sure if you ask the waiter to keep the cheese off the pizza, they can probably accommodate you.

    I've been to Italy--including Sicily--more times than most people have left California, and my…read morepartner even holds an Italian birth certificate. With that context, we don't take Italian food lightly. That's exactly why Ippolito's Trattoria stands out. Nick, the owner, is there seven days a week. Whether he's running the kitchen like a true master or walking the dining room checking in with guests, his presence is constant. His wife is often by his side, and together they've built something that feels less like a restaurant and more like a family. The staff reflects that--welcoming, attentive, and genuinely warm. Now, the food. The chicken parmigiana is massive--easily two meals--and executed perfectly. The chicken is tender, well-seasoned, and balanced. We usually start with calamari or a shared salad, both consistently excellent. I'm especially particular about carbonara, and this is the only place in Sacramento that truly gets it right. No shortcuts. No cream. No smoked bacon. They respect the tradition--using proper ingredients like guanciale or pancetta and incorporating the egg the way it's meant to be. It's easily the best carbonara I've had in years. The arancini are another highlight. If you've ever made them at home, you know the effort involved--this is the real deal. Crispy outside, rich and flavorful inside, and absolutely authentic. The bread is baked fresh daily by Nick, and it shows. The pasta is artisan-quality, also made fresh, and sourced from a trusted local partner. Every detail reflects care and intention. Dessert is not an afterthought here. The tiramisu--made in-house--is flawless. And the cannoli? Outstanding. The shells have the perfect crunch, and the fillings are rich without being overpowering. Even the pizzelle cookies are done right. It's no surprise they've earned recognition, including: Best Italian Restaurant in Sacramento Best Restaurant Overall in Sacramento Beyond the food, Nick is active in the community and gives back, which only adds to the experience. We've enjoyed this place so much that we've chosen them to cater my 60th birthday for 20 very discerning Italian family members--many of whom we've already brought here, all with the same glowing reactions. If there's any criticism to address, it's usually from people saying the food isn't salty or herb-heavy enough. That misses the point. This is balanced, authentic cooking--where ingredients shine without being masked. I've been to Papa Gianni's in Cameron Park dozens of times over the years, and it's a great spot. But when it comes to the Sacramento region, Ippolito's Trattoria is my go-to, without question.

Each time we asked about our food, we were simply told, "It's coming," while the staff avoided eye contact. After more than an hour, our food was finally brought out by the owner's son. His explanation was that our steak took a long time to cook. That's simply not believable. A steak doesn't take over an hour to prepare, especially when every other table around us had already been served. I would have respected an honest explanation far more than an obvious excuse. To make matters worse, the steak was thin, overcooked, chewy, and cold by the time it reached the table. The quality was nowhere near what we've come to expect from this restaurant. I told the owner's son that I was more upset about the dishonest explanation than the delayed food. We've been loyal customers and planned to keep coming back, but honesty and accountability matter. Instead of acknowledging what happened, the owner came out, pointed his finger in my face, and became defensive because I called out the excuse his son gave. Rather than apologizing or trying to make the situation right, he escalated it into an unnecessary confrontation. Everyone makes mistakes. Kitchens get backed up. Orders get lost. Customers are generally understanding when businesses are honest and take responsibility. What I can't overlook is being misled and then treated disrespectfully when I questioned it. Unfortunately, this was the worst dining experience we've ever had here, and unless the owners learn how to handle problems with honesty and professionalism, I can't recommend this restaurant.
