Pizza Metro

The pizza here is okay, but I've only had it once.  I ordered a margherita pizza to go and while it was good, it didn't blow me away.   I may give it another try later, but with so many other pizza places in this wonderful city of Chicago, it'll take some willpower for me to come back here.  On a side note, service is quick and friendly.

I often order Pizza Metro more because of a lack of alternatives than because it's what I really want.  It's not bad, it's just nothing special.  But it IS open late and that makes all the difference.  I actually feel a little dirty giving a place like this an average rating if only because it's open late.  I wish I could encourage this type of behavior without compromising the integrity of my Yelp reviews. But, again, this is the life I have chosen.

I also get the meatball sub and my girlfriend always gets the caprese sub.  Both are a bit small but at a price that is commensurate with their size.  They are very tasty and toasted to perfection.  But they are still just a meatball and caprese sub.

A little trick from a former pizza delivery boy: if you want pizza, go with the slices.  This is true most places and definitely true at Pizza Metro.  You get more pizza for your buck and are allowed more variety.

I love this place.  I feel like folks don't give a shout out to Pizza Metro being one of the better places to order pizza.  The guys on Division know how to put that pie together and slice it into little squares like nobody's business.  The crust is the best part!  They have a lot of coupons floating around so be sure to save one because I guarantee you that you will be eating here in the next two months if you live anywhere near Division and Ashland.
