“If you haven’t had a Falcos Pizza, you need to. Maybe I'm just biased because I have been eating it for 45 years, but I moved multiple times to different towns and city's and keep coming back to get a Falcos Pizza. Its a very "neighborhood" place. Staff and customers are always friendly. Just do it!”
“So everyone has their favorite pizza and mine is definitely Falcos!. Service is great.. The music at times is a bit loud but all good. Do I recommend it? YES!!! Ps. The jumbo shrimp dinner is fire and the hamburger is so good.”
“Can't say much about falco's. The crust had a good butter flavor and was crunchy; they were generous with the toppings. The toppings overpowered the rest of the pizza flavors. I also got a cup of minestrone soup and a cannoli. The soup was awful, and the cannoli was soggy and squishy. I will never eat here again.”
“Ordered here two weeks in a row thinking okay sometimes humans mess up but it got worse who’s cutting the pizza a toddler? SMH idk what’s going on but I think I’m going to have to go somewhere else until this is resolved”
“Was so good. I didn't even have time to take pictures. We finished it all”
“Falco’s Pizza on 40th Place in Brighton Park is more than just a pizza spot to me. It is part of my story. I grew up just a few blocks away from it, and it was one of those places that always felt like home. Every time I come back to Chicago, I make it a point to stop in. No matter how much time has passed, it feels exactly the same the moment I walk in or take that first bite. That thin crust, the sauce, the cheese, everything just hits right every time. What stands out most is how consistent it has stayed. So many places change over the years, but Falco’s on 40th Place still feels like the same neighborhood spot I remember growing up with. Simple, honest, and reliable. For me it is not just about the food. It is the memories tied to it. Being a kid in Brighton Park, walking those streets, and then coming back years later and realizing some places really do hold their ground. If you are anywhere near 40th Place in Brighton Park, or just want a true Chicago neighborhood pizza experience, it is worth the stop. I always do when I am back in town.”
“My go to pizza place when I come to visit my family. Friendly service and delicious pizza. They have a great variety of cracker thin crusts to deep dish and of course regular crust. They are all good.”
