I've been going to this place for over 10 years now, since I was about 13 or 14... Â The owner is still the same!
This pizza is one of the best in Chicago! Â If I had to recommend a pizza to a visiting friend, I would take them to Monica's..
You can get a delicious and good-sized slice of Cheese pizza for $2.00.
Friendly staff & delicious pizza!
Also - Their breaded mushrooms are incredible!
It's more of a takeout place, but there are a few stools you can sit at on a nice summer day.
Monica's Pizza, located on 65th and Pulaski, does their beef sandwich to perfection.
Don't let their strip mall location deceive you - this restaurant knows how to make a true Chicago beef sandwich. Their tough Turano bread is toasted once around in their rotating pizza oven. Their beef is usually a generous portion of non-banquet tasting quality. The amount of giardeniarra peppers is always on the mark, slithering through a mound of beef and tackling spicy-craving taste buds to enormous satisfaction. Order an open-faced sandwich to dine-in and usually you get a little more. However, the carry-out sandwich is of the same quality and still a great bang for the buck.
Monica's Pizza has a long-standing record of getting my order right and the taste of their beef sandwich truly defines a superb south side sandwich. In all honesty, if I didn't have medical concerns, I'd have Monica's beef sandwich dry with giardenierra peppers all three meals of the day.
