    Some of the best pizza I have had in Chicago! I love the thick grandma style squares, the slices are huge and the crust is both fluffy and crispy. I walked in around 6 on a Wednesday evening and the space was pretty empty but there are so many tables for eating in too which is nice. I got my pizza to go and it came in a perfect half size pizza box which was also a nice touch. I love that it's the same owners as the shop next door too. I got the vodka slice and the pepperoni slice, obviously with "everything on it." The addition of the hot honey was phenomenal, and I can't decide which I liked more because they were both so good. For around $5 a slice too this is extremely affordable! I will definitely be back.

    Had this post concert. Was literally 5 stars amazing. Soooo flavorful and super quick too even at 11pm. They had the "everything in it" option. Which had olive oil, basil, hot honey, and a couple other things. Was honestly the best pizza I've had in Chicago. Would totally come back . Got the classic pepperonis and heard good things about the Italian beef option for next time. Should have got two slices! Affordable as well for the thick piece you are getting.

    This place is such a gem! I'm happy there's a locally owned spot in the neighborhood that regularly offers pizza by the slice. It's Grandma Style Pizza and incredible! I have never had Grandma Style Pizza until I came to The Slice Shop. I usually get a side of ranch too. You order at the counter and can order to-go or grab a table. They also have a large variety of sodas available. Every employee I've interacted with has been kind and helpful. My experience has been wonderful each time! This is definitely a spot you should tell your family and friends about!

    Great pizza! Loved it and the family that runs it are awesome! Very cool area as well worth a walk if you are going to a Cubs game.

    Pretty good pizza. I saw in the window that it was featured on barstool sports and watched the video. I thought it was Detroit style pizza originally which has a fried bottom layer but I guess it's grandma style-Sicilian. Which the bread taste is more like artisanal bread like a ciabatta. It's about a half inch thick. They have their standard topics garlic oil, pecorino, red pepper, hot honey, & fresh basil which was all tasty. I got two slices of pepperoni with everything. Pretty tasty, on the bready side but good. I'd probably be ok with one slice. Dine in or take out. Service was pretty fast too. Great alternative between deep dish and thin pizza. Its was pretty good and worth giving a try.

    Pretty good. Loved the customer service and music. I added garlic and basil to my pizza. Next time I will skip the basil as I didn't care for the flavor that it added. Would try again

    Not sure if this particular slice I had was extra special or what, but this was such a satisfying slice of italian beef - all around in texture, flavor and value! I recall coming here when they first opened and while good then, seemed even better now. I enjoy the "everything" topping option. They have great offerings and affordable as well. You wouldn't think much from an extension of the convenience store next door esp. choosing to do pizza in the land of pizza, but they got something good (and different)! Their family run staff are always such a delight as well. It was just what I needed for a late lunch that didn't ruin my dinner. It was also a good sign when even coming in at an odd hour around 4pm, that a rush of various customers piled in shortly behind me. Definitely will be incorporating The Slice Shop in the za mix. Btw, don't sleep on their subs either!

    Great service. Great pizza slice options and ample seating. Nice decor inside the restaurant. Close to the CTA train.

    Food - the best pizza in Chicago and I have tried so many places who claim it, they simply and quietly - just do it! Crispy and flavorful crust, tomato sauce made with fresh tomatoes and amazing olive oil sprinkled on top just the way grandma made it. Service was fast friendly and knowledgeable. Ambience what it should be for a by the slice pizza place - clean seating area. Best pizza everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Pizza is so good. Crispy but not dough, amazing flavor and value. I get a slice of pepperoni and buffalo chicken whenever I'm in the area.

    Good fast pizza! Really tasty pizza with tons of options. Things you would never think of really work. I'll be back

    Vodka cheese pizza
    KELLY M.

    First time here, found this place through tiktok. Came here for lunch on a Sunday. Walk in it wasn't busy. Went straight to the counter and saw the display of different kind of pizza. I would say the pizza was breath taking. There are so many choices from classic cheese to Buffalo chicken or vodka sauce cheese. The price isn't that expensive. There are plenty street parking. Would recommend and come back for sure!

However we arrived earlier than scheduled and we ended up getting settled at our hotel so we walked and went in early. We arrived at 4pm and they let us in - was perfect because it wasn't busy. It's my son's first visit to Chi-town so I think this is a good first meal. We got the Chicago meatballs so we can eat something as the deep dish pizza takes 30 mins. The meatballs are flavorful and filled us up until we get our pizza. We picked the Malnati's Chicago classic - medium. The butter crust is really good and the cheese to meet ratio is balanced. While it is deep dish - it didn't feel like it's super thick, I think the butter crust was the difference. It was quiet when we arrived and we were seated in the dining area by the back in the ground level. There was only 1 group and another couple when we arrived so it wasn't loud. I'm sure when it's peak hours it'll be more festive and busy. Great first meal - order some starters if you're hungry. Medium was quite big for 2 people but good if you want to have some slices to-go.

We came with a party of six and had a reservation for six, but our table felt more appropriate for four people. The restaurant itself is spacious, so it was disappointing that we felt so cramped. We started with the calamari, which I really enjoyed. The batter was light and crispy without feeling greasy. We also shared the seafood pizza, duck prosciutto pizza, cup and char pepperoni pizza, and the gnocchi. All three pizzas were delicious, with very thin and crispy crusts. The seafood pizza came with a soup or broth that you could pour over it, which was nice and it also came with so much seafood. The cheese was slightly firm, but the pizza was still flavorful and enjoyable. The duck prosciutto had a noticeable duck aroma, melty cheese, and a rich, savory flavor. The cup and char pepperoni pizza was satisfying as well, especially the pepperoni with its crisp, curled edges. The gnocchi was another standout. It was satisfyingly chewy with a great texture and bold flavor. We finished with the tiramisu, which was light, balanced, and not overly sweet. Overall, the food was delicious and the waterfront setting made for a lovely dinner. I just wish we had been seated at a more comfortable table for our party size.

We grabbed a reservation for an early Sunday lunch the day before, but the restaurant was pretty empty. Tavern Style Pepperoni (4.75/5): Crust is super crunchy and the tomato sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. Pepperoni was uber savory and salty with a good crisp on em. Texturally, everything about this was perfect and you can just tell all the ingredients used were high quality. Mozzarella Sticks (4.5/5): Picture perfect mozzarella sticks. Insane crunch with a good amount of salt on the outside and melty, stretchy cheese when it hits your table. As with the pizza, the tomato in the marinara sauce really shines through.

Vibes in there are super fun and chic, casual but still cute and a little bit old-school I had done my research on our order lol but was really impressed by everything. We started with mozzarella sticks, fried zucchini, and meatballs, which were all generous portions and very tasty. The mozzarella sticks were very silky on the inside crunchy on the outside and came with a nice flavorful pomodoro dip. The meatballs had an Italian sausage/fennel flavor and were very tender, and the zucchini chips were the star of the apps!! Nice and crisp, they were cut into little super thin chips not like a traditional fried zucchini and the dipping sauce on that was also delicious and super fresh tasting Finally, we tried the spicy vodka tavern style pizza and added pepperoni to half. It was great both ways, super flavorful and the crust was perfectly crisp without being dry or overly crumbly. Pepperoni was a nice addition but not needed for sure. Would love to come back to try a pasta and dessert!
