“This is my first time ever writing a review, and this place totally deserves it! The pizza and salad were super delicious, and the service was amazing from the moment I walked in. The staff were so warm and friendly they really made me feel welcome. And the best part? They surprised me with a chocolate lava cake… and of course I couldn’t say no! It was unforgettable. I’m honestly so impressed and would 100% recommend this place to everyone!”
“Ordered before and thought it was great, meant to leave a review. This time we ordered take out of a 12" Louie pizza and a half Echo salad. It was ready right on time. Everything looked and tasted so fresh, it was delicious. They threw in a chocolate lava cake. It happened to be our first wedding anniversary so that was a really nice and yummy surprise. Definately my favorite local pizza spot!”
“This was the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life. This reminds me when I was a little boy in Naples, Italy. The crust was absolutely amazing. It felt like I was transformed back into an Italian homeland. Great customer service. I’ll definitely come back here again with my Italian grandmother!”
“One of the most delicious pizzas ever! Perfect management and recipes, clean and relaxing environment, maybe the best Puzza in Chicago! 🤌👌👍”
“I've lived in the neighborhood and walked past for three years. FINALLY gave it a try and ordered a Classic Margherita for carry out. Very good quality, fresh ingredients and super friendly staff. I enjoyed it. And they threw in some kind of chocolate lava brownie. Needed a little salt. BUT please know that's just my opinion/taste. I still recommend and would order from there again. I'd like to try a specialty pie. Too bad they are not on Instagram for a shout out. also their website still says "Temporary Reduced Hours Due to Covid-19"”
“My new favorite NY pizza place in Chicago, maybe favorite pizza place in general. I had it the first time several days ago and already ordered it a second time. Perfect crust, perfect cheese ratio, it’s just so good. Love you, Crushed Pizzaria!”
“Excellent thin crust pizza!!! And the Victor Salad with toasted pistachios was delicious. The service was quick and as an added treat they gifted us with pizza slice shaped rice crispy treats.”
“What a hidden gem! Pizza and salad were delicious. Amazing service too - the woman brought us cold water, glasses, and threw in a free dessert. Wow, we had just stopped in to grab a pizza and got a really unexpectedly great from a very unassuming place.”
“Second visit, and once again, the best pizza in town. Highly recommend!”
“One of the best pizzerias around! Great prices, excellent customer service, and the owner, Moe, is very friendly and welcoming.”
