    CHOCOLATE BROWNIE WHAT ON EARTH GIVE ME 17 OF THEM
    Ashley B.

    delicious. the salad, the breadsticks, the pizza, the chocolate fucking muffin brownie thing. love the staff, and love the options on the menu. sooooo affordable. chill atmosphere too, you can totally wear sweatpants.

    Half mushroom/spinach, half pepperoni/sausage

    We've had several wonderful deep-dish pizzas in Chicago over the years. But for whatever reason, the last few--including pizzas at stalwarts like Pequod's and the River North Malnati's--have been lackluster. This particular evening was working out to be a let's-stay-nearby-for-pizza night, and Crushed Pizza gets more positive Internet reviews for non-Chicago-style pizza than you can count. It deserves them. The pizza has crust of medium thickness in a bit of an East Coast style. It was terrific: sturdy, with great chew and good yeasty flavor. The best we can remember having in a long time. Toppings (mushroom and spinach on our half) were fresh and plentiful. Only complaint I can muster is that the sauce could use just a little more zing. Side salads--only five or six bucks if I recall correctly--were huge for the price and surprisingly good, although mine (the Charlie, with spinach, walnuts, fig, red onion, Gorgonzola) was heavy on the balsamic vinaigrette. Although Crushed has tables for dining in, it is very much a carry-out joint and doesn't have too much in the way of atmosphere. Our young server was pleasant enough, but we kinda got lost in the shuffle among all the folks standing around waiting on carryout orders. Also, no alcohol, at least not yet.

    Phone was suppose to eat first but we got too excited!

    First time visiting crushed pizza and I enjoyed it! We ordered for pickup and everything was still hot when we arrived about 30 minutes after placing the order. The interior is pretty small but there are a few tables and tv if you show up wanting to dine in. We ordered a half cheese half pepperoni pizza and the house crushed salad on the side. I typically don't love the salads at pizza restaurants, but this one was really fresh mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, freshly chopped basil, and a nice vinaigrette. I loved it and have enough left over to have for lunch tomorrow too! The pizza was tasty too. Although the crust is thick and crispy, center of the pizza is kind of floppy. While that isn't my favorite I know there are a lot of people who enjoy that. It's a good size, reasonably priced, and super flavorful! I can definitely see us ordering from here again.

    Crust was amazing with just the right amount of bounce and crunch. (And no corn meal!) Topping amounts were perfect, though I wouldn't add more than two items to a pizza because it might get overloaded. Sauce was perfect and not too sweet. The free lava cake was amazing. This is my new go to when I need pizza.

    The Garlic Butter Sauce came cold and solid.

    They completely messed up my order and the quality of the food overall is poor. Will not be trying again.

I've had deep dish pizza before, but I was not prepared for this - the real deal. Pequod's was the right choice. We ordered two pies - a half vegetable and half plain pie, and a meatball pie. Honestly, we should have just got one pie because it was so much. It was delicious, but it was A LOT! We had leftovers for days.

This PLACE DID NOT DISAPPOINT! We tried the basic deep dish pizza with pepperoni to go and it was delicious! The sauce was tasty and thick, while the burned edges gave it an added flavor unlike any pizza we have ever tried. The bread is not a "pie" crust but more a fluffy, thick bread. I do recommended you order ahead as it's a 45-50 minute process to cook the masterpiece. It was well worth wait. They have two entrances for this location. One is the pick-up and go side while the entrance closest to the street corner, is the sit-down restaurant. I did notice people waiting outside and when I walked in to see the vibe, they had a small bar area and had several high tables to sit at. The hostess was really sweet and I even bought a $1 sticker to remember our stop here. I highly recommend this location for your deep dish pizza experience!

Big bang buffalo- standard buffalo. Can't go wrong. Hot honey- pretty good, honey flavor, some sweetness Garlic galaxy glaze- this is really good if you like garlic flavor. I would get this again. Bayou in the sky- super super good. I would get this again. Hint of spice, hint of sweet. Carolina bbq- tasted like straight deli mustard. I would pass. The pizza, even though they advertise Detroit Style pizza, their take is more like Focaccia style pizza. They provide nice crunch, not enough sauce. Pretty airy dough.

That's at the tone for what became unforgettable night. Had the space debri salad which is basically a Greek salad with potatoes and I think in Italian vinaigrette Soooooooooooo for it!!! So delicious After getting it, my buddy had to get one too haha One of us had the moonwalk cheese, we go out for a lot of pizza together, and he said it was he thought his favorite of anywhere. Another one of our crew got the pepperoni pile up loved. And I got the sweet and salty space candy pizza With bacon, pineapple, pickled red onion, goat cheese, sambal. Genius, the goat cheese, instead of ricotta was the move for this pizza! All the flavors worked in perfect harmony.Nothing short of amazing. Cozy spot, super cool atmosphere, couple of old school arcade games like ninja Turtles let's goooo We had so much fun. The drinks were absolutely excellent as well. Oh my God cannot forget this drink program. Galactic gift basket and Jedi mind trick sooo fire.
