    Meat Lovers Pizza
    Johnny Y.

    Usually when I rate that it's a perfect score there isn't much detail to write about. It's just simply THAT good. You would think each time we visit Chicago. People say, "You got to do deep dish" NO! YOU DON'T! I DO WAHHH I WANT! geez and now this would be my regular spot to go when I hit up Chicago. Honestly the personal size is perfect! with a side of their wings was top notch! Not overly fried and dried out like other places. Not dense in sauce. I would come back to try out the other options they got.

    My eldest son raved about this place! He's a teenager and the place is right next to the train station. I judged a book by it's cover and had lowwww expectations! How silly of me!!! My son ordered two slices of pizza which were huge and a 20oz drink. The total cost was $11 and some change. Well worth it! Great crust! Chewy, with a crunch yet soft. Quality cheese not overly salty. So darn good!!!!!!!!! I went back and ordered four more slices for their dinner! Delish!!!

    Good pizza spot right under the Sedgwick Brown Line stop. Good people running the business too, made me feel welcomed and excited to eat the pizza. They even reheat the pizza in the old if it doesn't look fresh enough. I thought that was a nice touch because I've been to other pizza places & they serve you the coldest pizza they have. Even if it was laying out 8+ hours that day... Pazza Pizza doesn't do that. I did notice they had other food items on the menu and I will definitely be back for those. I had the Buffalo Bacon Chicken Ranch Pizza and it hit the spot. I've been wanting to stop by this place everyday during my commute and I'm glad I did this day. The slices are about $5-$6 each and if you get two, then you get a drink for free. Thank you Pazza Pizza, I will be back soon! Personal Review: 7.1/10

    Jalapeno Poppers, Side of Marinara and  Side of Ranch

    We DoorDash a pepperoni / cheese pizza and jalapeño poppers. Who ever made it has to get 5 stars

    Ordered plain cheese for delivery. Kind of confused about all the positive reviews. Upon opening the box I was unimpressed by the cheap looking cheese and crust. Then, disappointed by the lack of crispiness or crunch. However, at least the seasoning was not bland (garlicky). And since it's pizza after all, I ate the shit out of it. At first I had a hard time placing the flavor but then it dawned on me. Dominos. It tastes like Dominos. Slightly thinner, and a slight step up in ingredients but man, Dominos. Maybe a generous 3 stars, but I did scarf it down regardless. Edible. Also I'd like to mention it photographs better than it looks in real life.

    Pepperoni Pizza

    Way overpriced dominos. Was excited but disappointed. Pretty confused cause all the other photos look much better. Got the buffalo chicken bacon ranch pizza as well...

    Good no-frills pizza place. Right under the Sedgwick and North subway stop which made it a convenient pick up and go. The interior is clean and has some seating but you can tell it's mostly a grab and go place. There's a selection of pizzas in the display that are ready made and can buy by slice, and they have a wider selection of pizzas if you want to do an entire pie for takeaway. Slices are reheated quickly. The pizza here is "regular" pizza not the type of heavy butter or super crispy thin crust they sell in the deep dish chains nor the floppy stuff you get at the dollar slices in NYC. I wouldn't call this place NYC style pizza. Tasty, filling, affordable and convenient.

    Great pizza by the slice! Pepperoni and Meat Lovers
    Tammie T.

    Great pizza! By the slice of the whole pie. NY style pizza, quick and easy. Slices range from $5-6 depending the toppings. Warmed to perfection with a crispy bottom. Finished it down to the crust!

    First time in Chicago so I had to try the national sandwich of Chicago! Al's beef has been serving…read moreup Italian Beef sandwiches since 1938. They have won several awards for their sandwiches and are said to have the best Italian Beef in Chicago. With all this being said, this was certainly a must eat on my trip! Their menu consists of their famous Italian beef, along with Chicago dogs, burgers, sausage sandwiches, chicken, and fries. There is definitely something for everyone here. The inside is casual and reminiscent of a fast food eatery. Really liked the yellow accents throughout the restaurant. I will also note that it was extremely clean inside, which is always appreciated. Ordering is simple and they will call your ticket number when your food is ready. All the food is served made to order and very fresh and doesn't take too long to come out! I ordered the Regular Beef, wet, with both hot and spicy peppers per the workers suggestion. Ordering the sandwich wet simply means the bread is dunked in the gravy/aus jus. If you want the real deal, this is how you order it. The peppers are optional as well, but complete the sandwich. The sandwich consists of their famous Italian beef roasted and sliced, served on freshly baked French bread. I can see why this sandwich is so highly regarded. The Italian beef that is made in house each day is tender, flavorful, and just perfect! It isn't chewy or tough either. The sweet and spicy peppers paired nicely with the savory beef. And the fresh French bread covered in the gravy--phenomenal! The gravy adds a lot of flavor to the sandwich. You do have to eat it quickly, otherwise the bread will fall apart, oh but it is so worth it. I got fries with a side of cheese sauce to go with the sandwich. By far some of the best fries I've had. Not super crispy, but not soggy either, the texture was just right. They were salted perfectly and dipping them in their velvety cheese sauce was a treat! A regular sub is roughly 6 inches and quite filling. The sandwiches are stuffed with ample amounts of beef. The price is also excellent considering how much you get. Overall, I would say Al's Beef lived up to all its praise. My sandwich was very memorable and was like nothing I'd had before. Everything is so fresh, between their beef, bread, and fries, it is all made in house. This isn't just some fast food spot, it is an institution. I was impressed with everything I ordered, especially the fries. They take a lot of pride in what they serve. This is evident in their customer service. If you are visiting Chicago, don't think, just go--you won't regret it!

Kinda skimpy on the fixings on the Chicago dog, but still gets the job done if you're craving a Chicago dog. Fries are the type that are greasy to the touch; not my fave style of fries but I know it's a well-liked one to others. Super friendly lady at the cashier (all smiles, patient, and offered menu help)! Also fast service (got my order within a few minutes). I visited on a Saturday late afternoon and it was very chill here (also shoutout to the early 2000's era music playing :p it was a vibe). Overall I'd say it's not a bad food spot at all if you want a quick bite and want to be a little away from the Magnificent Mile crowds.

Food reviews: Truffle and mushroom tavern--light and well balanced. Delicate sweet notes from the red onion balance out the earthiness of the mushroom, truffle and charred crust. Cheese doesn't overwhelm the pie and compliments all ingredients with a salty bite Spicy vodka and sausage--so different than the first pie but equally as delicious! Vodka sauce has a deep flavor with only subtle heat. Sausage packs a ton of flavor. Heavier of the two pies since it had more cheese on it but my husband enjoyed Chocolate peanut butter sundae--birthday celebration treat brought by our server! Wow it's a must order. The puppy chow was an insanely smart ingredient to add for texture and bit of chocolate. Can't wait to return to try another specialty pie!

The atmosphere, history, and overall hype surrounding it definitely add to the experience. However, in my personal opinion, the ambience and reputation outweighed the actual quality of the food! I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich combo along with a classic hot dog. The customer service itself was actually very nice and prompt. The cashier helping me was friendly enough to let me sample their spicy chipotle-style sauce/spread that comes with the chicken sandwich, and honestly, that sauce was delicious. That said, I have to admit the hot dog itself was pretty underwhelming. I know Chicago-style hot dogs are iconic, but I personally felt like I've had better-tasting hot dogs from a Dodger Dog or even Costco. The relish here tasted oddly artificial to me -- almost like a strange paste consistency that I just couldn't get into. Maybe it's just my Los Angeles taste buds talking, but honestly, some of the best hot dogs I've had are from the street vendors off Hollywood Boulevard with the grilled onions, bell peppers, mustard, mayo, ketchup... you know exactly the kind I'm talking about!! Overall, I'd still recommend trying this place at least once simply because it's such a well-known Chicago institution, but for me personally, the food didn't fully live up to the hype.....
