Wow where do i start ? im a newyorker born & raised that moved to Cleveland Ohio 20 plus yrs ago to Start our family and since then we started visiting Chicago a couple times a year because since my 1st visit i fell in love w the city , everything about it, the people the mixed cultures the food of course ,the land marks , everything about it reminds me of nyc yet you guys have your own pulse & vibe that is nothing like newyork. Truth be told is i learned fast that Newyork pizza & Chicago pizza is not something you can compare ,each city has there signature and they are not the same ,But wow where we blown away last year when we found Burts Place, my wife & I arrived hungry after our 5 hour trip that day so we were happy to be seated quickly and everyone was so friendly and were happy to hear we came just for them, when the owner or manager found out we came for such a long ride and we were headed home after we ate she came and spoke to us for a bit and offered us a place to stay w her for the night since she had a spare room ,we told her thank you and declined but it spoke volumes x 10 of what hospitality is ,not only that when she realized we ordered a peperonni pizza she insisted we try their main special signiture pizza and gave us that one on the house and oh boy they did not dissapoint ,soon i realized that was the best pizza ive ever had in my 49 yrs of life thus far, please dont take that lightly i love all pizza but am very picky to praise anything so for me to say that its because it is truly something special and a 1 of a kind , On that day i found out that theres Chicago Pizza And theres Burts Place The Best Pizza in The World , Thank You from Wil & Nix See You Soon

Just had pizza from Burt’s Place in Morton Grove — and wow, absolutely incredible. Perfectly caramelized crust, gooey cheese, and that classic deep-dish flavor that hits every time. You can tell there’s real passion behind every slice.

“Finally got to try Burt’s Place and it definitely lived up to the hype.”

Finally got to try Burt’s Place and it definitely lived up to the hype. The sauce at Pequod’s is still my favorite, but everything else here was excellent. The thicker, buttery pan-style crust and caramelized edges were delicious, and the cheese curds were some of the best I’ve ever had. The staff was great very friendly and attentive which made the experience even better. Service was quick, and everyone made us feel welcome. The patio was also a really nice touch and a perfect spot to enjoy a meal on a nice day. No wonder Anthony Bourdain called this the only deep dish pizza he ever loved. I would definitely go back.

“Stopped in here with my buddy last night and it was phenomenal.”

Stopped in here with my buddy last night and it was phenomenal. Really solid pan pizza, similar style to Pequods in downtown Chicago but I actually think Burt’s was better! Nice crispy crust, good ratio of cheese to sauce and not overloaded with toppings. We also got some cheese curds and the portion was huge for the price point. Definitely worth checking out!

“I was honored to have the opportunity to try a delicious pizza from Burt himself years ago when I was pregnant.”

I was honored to have the opportunity to try a delicious pizza from Burt himself years ago when I was pregnant. I walked in one day .... he hesitated but then asked me to sit down and wait for my pizza. All he asked was what size. What a character but absolutely worth it. The pizza 🍕 is still very delicious. Its a biweekly meal at our home.

“Every time I come here, I love it.”

Every time I come here, I love it. I definitely like the half dough better than the full dough. Everybody there is just so nice also! Pic…Sausage half dough with giardiniera on the side .

Been here twice. Food was excellent both times! I personally like it better than the local competitor. Prices are reasonable, service is excellent by all staff members and I cannot think of one bad thing to say about this place. I’m glad that we tried it! Pizza with the giardineria was very good and not overly spicy. Great flavor! The cannolis are made fresh when you order them, so they’re still crunchy. We will definitely be back soon.

“I wish there were more than 5 stars to review this restaurant.”

I wish there were more than 5 stars to review this restaurant. The facility itself is clean and has character. The service was impeccable- the staff genuinely seem to care about each guest and the quality of the food. The food is on a whole different level….we are talking pizza perfection. We will be back.
