“The place is not that big so it you go with a large group it could feel a little bit crowded.”
The place is not that big so it you go with a large group it could feel a little bit crowded. But the food is really good specially deep dish pizza is delicious. The crust is crispy and it has a really good flavor. Our server was really nice but he was super busy I think the place need more servers wth?!

“Nice place and good service even though we got there an hour before closing.”
Nice place and good service even though we got there an hour before closing. Place is big with lots of seating options, there’s available street parking. Pizza was tasty for someone who isn’t a fan of deep dish

“Amazing atmosphere, beautiful establishment and worth it.”
Amazing atmosphere, beautiful establishment and worth it. I was sat immediately in a booth at my request, which was very cool. The staff was really nice and attentive. Even though it was just me making sure my soda was constantly refilled without me asking and suggested a small meal like I wanted just to try out Chicago's deep dish Pizza. The food was great from the salad to the personal Pizza flavorful. It was a bit pricey, but because it was a deep dish Pizza I'm assuming that's why it was so pricey, but atmosphere was great and food delicious and since I was in Chicago I had do try it.

“We were lucky there was no long line.”
We were lucky there was no long line. Only 2 groups ahead of us. So it was fairly fast. It took about 45 min to wait for the pizza which was not unusual for s do dish pizza. Totally worth the wait! The pizza was delicious. Service was great.

“Pizza was the best I've ever had.”
Pizza was the best I've ever had. We had the special stuffed pizza and mozzarella triangles. Steven at the bar was friendly and was still very attentive with a full bar. 100% recommend.

The only bad thing about this place was the parking! Didn't wait long! Service was good, friendly, and attentive. The deep dish was amazing! that sauce, the cheese pull, the size, everything was way better than I had ever hoped. Heavenly even. Don't miss this place if you are in Chicago!

Highly recommended by locals for authentic Chicago deep dish pizza, so we had to go to see what the hype was all about while here on vacation. There was paid parking but the service and food were worth that small inconvenience. The entire meal was beyond amazing. Pizza made using house-made dough, and sauce with great quality produce. Perfect balance of flavors in every bite. Our server gave exceptional customer service and a cheerful demeanor. Can't wait to find the city's next culinary treasure.
