Found this place on a sunny afternoon drive looking for a little lunch. Conveniently located off of I-55, our little lunch was anything but. First off, this is a nice little place, with a good size menu of homemade offerings. Sizewise, its on the cosy, intimate side, not huge and warehouse like. The newest appetizer was Tater Kegs, tater tots the size of jumbo marshmallows with cheese, bacon and chives right in them. With the Hidden Valley ranch dressing,.....amazing! Our "little lunch" consisted of a sausage and beef sandwich with cheese and peppers for my husband that could easily feed two people, if you add an appetizer, maybe even three! My personal pizza was advertised as 5 inches, but I swear it had to be bigger, because I just barely finished it. The homemade crust was firm and crisp, and the slightly burnt edges gave the pizza a nice extra flavor. Rounded it off with nice, cold beverages and this was a meal that will see us having a late and much lighter supper. We will definitely be back! read more

Ate here late yesterday and as always, glad I did! Little hidden secret off I-55 between Joliet and Bloomington. I first ate here about 7 years ago and it is my go to spot when driving from the Chicago area to Bloomington. The only menu item I've had is the pizza which is so good I simply haven't had an urge to try anything else. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a great pizza at a fair price. read more

Excellent service by Jim and great food. We were on our way back from a conference today in Prospect Heights IL and stopped for lunch. We had bread sticks and pizza. Jim was very attentive and accommodating! read more

One of the better pizza places in the area. Staff is friendly and the restaurant is clean inside. Wait one can be a bit rough sometimes but generally speaking it is reasonable except when it's really busy. If you're in the area it's definitely worth checking out! read more

7" Calzone & Italian beef were excellent... Quick & easy access of of 55... Definitely will stop again.

Dwight pizza is great. It's good old fashioned super cheesy and greasy delicious pizza. My husband and I have pizza every Friday. We live in the Chicago area but are from St. Louis. When we leave to go south after work on Fridays we wait til we get out of chicago craziness and stop at dwight pizza. They are fast reasonably priced and tasty. Sometimes we eat in sometimes we take it to go. If you are eating in get the cheese balls. Yum. read more

Stopped into Dwight pizza while traveling home from Michigan. We ordered the deluxe pizza and two side salads. It had lots of toppings and cheese with a nice crispy crust. While eating out salads, the owner brought out a sampling of their Italian beef. It was so good, that we ordered 5 lbs to go! Very friendly owner. We will stop in again! read more

This is what comfort food is all about. I tried italian beef sandwich for first time in chicago (portillos) and was craving it. Reviews were good so I stopped by and ordered for hubby and I. OMG it was sooooo good!! Mozzarella cheese on it took it to a whole new level. Meat and cheese portion was very generous. Devoured the whole thing before I thought of taking a pic. Anyways, John was welcoming and very friendly. This type of service is rare nowadays. Definitely coming back. read more

Stopped in for the first time, really wasn't expecting much. But to my surprise they have great food, and the best people you will ever meet

Great pizza, super friendly staff. Thin crust pizza was out fast and delicious. Our party also ordered sandwiches, both Chicken Parm and Italian beef were some of the best we ever tasted. Will definitely hit Dwight Pizza the next time we are looking for a place to stop south of Chicago. read more

My boyfriend Terry and I live in the middle of absolutely nowhere and Dwight Pizza is the only place that will deliver to us. We order quite often. The pizza is fantastic with so much cheese and that great crispy crust that everyone is after! Their sides and sandwiches can't be beat! Their Italian beef is the best I've ever had. We both enjoy that one immensely! So much beef and cheese and it comes with 2 different kinds of peppers and juice to dip it in. Don't let a small town establishment fool you. The menu is quite impressive and they have great food all around! read more

Food was great! We loved the attentiveness of the staff, Italian beef was fantastic and deep dish pizza was delicious! We wish we lived closer just so we could eat here every day! Definitely worth the stop and we hope to return again someday. read more

The pizza here was really good. Loved the sauce and cheese. Prices were reasonable and the two guys working there were both really nice dudes. I'm not from Dwight, but if I ever find myself in the area I would eat at Dwight's pizza again. read more

I've eaten here at least 5 times and have yet to be disappointed myself. The portobello beef, chicken bacon ranch, chicken and garlic calzone are all I've eaten here so far and they were all great! Very good customer service! What more can you ask for. If I'm ever passing through Dwight, I am definitely eating here! read more

Dwight Pizza is my favorite place to stop on my drive from St Louis to Chicago. The owner and everyone who works there are great. Really enjoyed their sandwiches and pizza, and the chef salad is a healthy and delicious option. read more

Stopped here on our way home from a very long weekend in Chicago. One of my husband's co-workers recommended it as we were leaving a work event. The owner greeted us as we came in and asked where we were from. When we mentioned our hometown he pointed out another couple also from our hometown, also headed home from Chicago. Of course my husband (Marc) being the type of person who is NEVER a stranger to anyone goes over to their table, introduces himself and asks what they are having (a beef and sausage sandwich with cheese and peppers). We changed our minds from a pizza and decided to both order the beef and sausage sandwich. It was amazing. Marc got it with the spicy peppers on it and I got it with the mild peppers on the side. Next time, I would put the peppers on the sandwich . We also ordered fries and probably wouldn't get those again. You really don't need them with the size of the sandwiches and we didn't eat them all. We will make this a place to stop in the future when we travel between Chicago and Central Illinois. Next time, we may try the pizza...or just enjoy that amazing sandwich again. read more

I've eaten here a handful of times, once dining in with friends, and the others have been carry out. Each time has been during eveng hours. Overall it's a good pizza joint. We really like their thin crust. Prices are average, quality is good. read more

Great pizza, handmade and super customer service. So friendly.

Absolutely love this pizza!!! If you get a chance to try it, go for it!!! Dwight is my home town and this pizza place was around when I was growing up and then the owner moved away and he's been back for several years now with the same great pizza!!!! The thin crust pizza is so good. The sauce is what makes it!!! Anytime I'm visiting my mom I try to get this pizza. Ingredients are fresh and it is a perfect mix of gooey cheese and sausage. Love it!!! Super friendly service too. Check out this pizza, you will be happy you did!!! read more

Really good pizza and sandwiches here. I'm a fan of the Lesliola. It's an Italian style sandwich. All the food here is fresh, which is something a lot of places just don't do. Fresh food cooked to order is the way to go, and you'll get that here. read more

Just stopped in for a SOB (sausage, onion, and bacon) pizza on way back to St Louis from Chicago. It was delicious! Crust was crispy. Service was perfect. We just loved it and will definitely be back! read more

Love this place for a yummy thin crust every time we are passing through. Not much for atmosphere but friendly and tasty!!

We stopped in for lunch on the way to Chicago, and it was great! The owner was there and so friendly. He told us about the pizza he makes and made us feel like we had a personal chef making us something special. And it was! Delicious thin crust pizza and they couldn't be nicer there. I'll stop back anytime I'm driving thru again! read more

I had the Chicken bacon ranch sandwich w/fries It was awesome.. Every time I come back here, this is where I am eating...

We ordered three thin crust pizzas and a salad last weekend for a meeting and had it delivered. The pizzas were delicious, cheesy with tasty toppings. John made a salad for 10, rather than 10 dinner salads and the lettuce was fresh and crispy, and filled with black olives, tomatoes, croutons and cheese. As selection of dressings topped it off. Delivery was right on time, and very pleasant. Tasty food and nice folks! read more

Don't hesitate to stop here on your way through. So many choices! Amazing food! Kind people, willing to customize your meal! We will be back for sure! read more

Took a long time to get my order and I dident like the idea that the cook was wearing a muscle shirt.

I am a truck driver and I normally resort to fast food or whatever garbage I can find inside a truck stop. As I pulled off the interstate to sit at the Loves all weekend I saw a sign that said pizza/ Chinese with no curb appeal ( at least from the angle I saw it) . So I chalked it up to being just like anyone of the other thousands of restaurants across America with sub par food that will inevitably close it's doors after a few months due to lack of business. I am very passionate about food, but customer service is also a huge plus. I started researching the place out of sheer curiosity and read some promising reviews to my surprise. When I called the owner/ employee/ manager was very polite and helpful unlike most people who take your order through a phone. After some small chit chat about debit cards and if he would deliver right across the street, I asked what he would suggest. He then asks me where I'm from, to which I replied New Orleans. He then goes on directing me to a very delicious pizza which I'm currently enjoying! The pizza is great but what really sold me was the outstanding customer service. Even the delivery driver was real polite and professional. I will order from Dwight whenever I am enroute back to Chicago and have a chance to stop. On a side not the guy asked me if I have a tv in my truck, to which I replied I have DVDs and a laptop he offered to bring me over there so I can watch the games on the big screen. Keep up the good work Dwight Pizza. I will see you again!! read more

My favorite item is the beef roll. I request them to add onions and mushrooms. I also try to support local(family owned ) businesses.We're a small town trying to keep our hard earned dollars working for us. Plus they are a friendly group of folks. read more

MITerrible greasy food dirt and who knows what else was in the ice. Had to dump and refill cup couple times with ice and still had to pick stuff out. Imagine what was in the fountain drink lines.... bad time management with call in orders takes an hour to get an order of frozen prepackaged mini tacos delivered. Not to metion their "famous taco salad/pizza" is made with CANNED taco beef from GFS or some similar store. Explains why it taste so nasty. read more

One of the best pizzas that i ever eat !!! Great flavor and the people in there is very friendly!! If you are in the area stop by !! I'm truck driver and the parking it's just across the street!!!! So enjoy!!! read more

Called ahead for lunch. Order was fast and food was great. Staff was outstanding. Breaded tenderloin was one of the best I've had. Others said the Italian beef was great also. Will definitely come back if in the area again. read more

Great food!! I often order lunch and sometimes dinner from here and I have yet to have something bad. Obviously they are known for their pizza but they make great sandwiches(Italian beef, chicken Parmesan, chicken bacon ranch, and the Lesliolia) great salads, and have a fantastic beef roll. Make sure to get an order of their Bosco sticks too! read more

Their Italian Beef sandwich is wonderful after a long day outside doing yard work. They also have good appetizers, chicken sandwiches and pizza. This staff are pleasant and the food is usually ready when they say it is ready. Can't ask for more. read more

Very very friendly staff! Love the fact that you can get your own fountain refills. And rc cola on fountain? Yes, thank you! Pizza was ok tasting, not a fan of the sauce. Cheesy garlic bread is yummo! Small eat in area. Would go back. read more

I was recently visiting the area and decided to order from Dwight Pizza. First off the prices on line ($14.00 for a large) are not correct . I called to order two large pizzas- the total bill was 44.00. When I said that does not match what you have on line (taking into consideration delivery charge) they argued and I decided I wanted to cancel the order. The owner got on the phone and said " What can you afford, I will give you the moochers special". Now I am not poor and could totally afford that pizza but did not think it was fair that they trick people into thinking it is one price and then bam its 10-15 more... I was really put out by his attitude but kept my cool and said no thank you, I just want to cancel my order. He then said " Don't you ever f**%ing call here again. At that point I hung up. I think this man is scary and I would not give him my business again. I also informed everyone I knew. I guess his business is not that good (no wonder) and he was totally upset that he lost a sale. Be safe and go to Gio's Pizza in Dwight, it is really good, they are honest and do not have a temper problem. read more
