The people are very friendly! It's not much of a sitdown place, and the seats need new upholstery.
The pizza is great! Always fresh and tastes a little more herby, the fried chicken is crunchy and they have a decent amount of desserts. My family and I have been going here for years, no harm in trying!
I was in the area running errands and I noticed this place and had the hankering for a pizza. Â Since I was waiting at a spot to be seen down the street I ran in to chow down a slice of pizza...which of course was JUST coming out of the oven...so I couldn't just inhale it in my rush. Â And I am so glad I didn't.
It was sooo good. Â The sauce was a tomato zesty taste with sausage and cheese melting into my mouth. Â Was pretty awesome. Â
I chatted briefly with the owner, Khan, to tell him how awesome the place was, and he himself at first was alittle shy I guess? Â (Maybe he wasn't expecting praise or anything?) Â But he opened up alittle, saying he had bought this from a Italian gentleman and just tried to keep up the standard. Â He even pointed to a picture on the wall (there are a few pictures of Italy on the wall that came with the place) and said that was the last owners uncle.
So after I finished with my appointment I came back for a second slice. Â Still good after an hour too, and decided to eat there. Â The place itself was small, so I assume take out is more the business there, as a few school kids were haning out there. Â (He seems to have a good rapport with them too I notice.) Â Khan is a pretty friendly guy...I even said there are only a couple of places that have good pizza by me and I wish this was one of them.
Sadly I don't venture into this area much, but if you all do, check this place out.
Is this Chicago!? A city known for great pizza?! WHY WHY WHY is is that when I move to the city from the 'burbs, the pizza turns to crap?! I ordered a half bacon with sausage all over pizza, an order of chicken alfredo and cheese sticks.
The pizza sauce - SUCKED. Just a bad taste over all.
Chicken alfredo - bland. Why would you offer this on your menu if your employees obviously can't make it well. They didn't even try on this one...
Cheese sticks - good but again, the marinara sauce was just all wrong. I've noticed this at a few places lately. The sauce is just either under seasoned completely and bland. Â or completely over seasoned and disgusting.
I totally didn't realize I had ordered here before. I'm mad at myself for ordering their same shitty pasta, twice. On a good note, the pizza tasted really good the next day for lunch. How subpar pizza turns into good pizza by magic of fridge and microwave works, I have no idea.
The delivery driver also went to the wrong apartment building twice and was rude. Coluta's, no thank you.
Decent thin crust pizza. Pretty run of the meal as far as sauce and cheese ratios. The crust was a little dry, but a nice thickness for thin crust. The price is very good and the delivery was on time. This wasn't a mind blowing pizza experience, but it was good and I would order again.
Review Source:I always get the same thing from here: pizza and the jalapeno cheese popper. Both are the bomb! I have nvr ordered anything except this, but when I do order from here that's all I want.
If you've nvr had the jalapeno poppers (and u like that sort of thing) u def gotta order them! They use a fresh jalapeno stuff it full of cheesy goodness, batter and fry. They serve them with a side of sour cream which pairs perfectly. They are so addicting!
The pizza is also good Chicago style pizza. Way better than a lot of other pizza joints I've tried on the Northside. And way less expensive than most other pizza places.
Woohoo! Delicious pizza for cheap (not like Little Caesar's but like a good neighborhood pizzeria).
I usually only get pepperoni. I've gotten fresh tomato and spinach. It's good! Ordered jalapenos once... they were pickled. I prefer fresh better.
Haven't tried anything else... don't need to.
If you call an order in, it is normally ready within 20 minutes. Meter parking on Diversey.
Out of all the pizza places in Chicago, this place is my fav. Â I LOVE pizza and with the great selection of meats, etc you could never get tired of it. Â I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a cheap, good pizza joint. Â Everyone that I tell about it, Love it just as much as I do!!!! Â My fav., chicken and mushrooms (easy cheese, extra sauce)!!!
