PIZZA BY THE SLICE, I always love pizza by the slice, but not so much at Primos.
From all of the restaurants on Clark st, you can really do better than Primos, but if you want cheap food thats not McDonalds which is less than 200 feet away, Primos can get the job done.
The Pizza is alright, tasted like an upgraded version of those frozen pizzas you'd buy at Jewel. Your typical fast food joint, 3 stars.
I'm a sucker for a sign that says pizza by the slice. Â That sign and cash burning a hole in my pocket led me into this place. Â With a few slices of cheese pizza ready and Telemundo blaring in the background, the question of whether or not I wanted to dine in or carry out was simple. Â I'm staying.
Two slices of cheese, their mystery hot sauce (Sriracha bottle....not Sriracha) and a can of Diet Coke and I was ready for my dining experience. Â It was a "New York Style" slice of pizza that I was pleased with. Â Nothing special, but the pizza is just good enough for them to stay around. Â I'm sure they have a decent following and may do well later at night when the area bars and restaurants spill out onto Clark. Â By the way, the mystery hot sauce was suprisingly decent.
Would I go out of my way to eat here? No
Would I go back? Yes
It is what it is. Â A dive pizza place that has slightly better pizza then you would expect.
Vitals:
2 Slices of Cheese
Mystery hot sauce
Diet Coke
less than $5
After two years of living a block away from Primo Pizza, I finally decided to stop in. I guess I had always thought it was just a pizza place, but I was surprised when I walked in and the menu included all of the standard Chicago favorites.
The Gyros, Italian Beef, and Pizza are all decent, but nothing is really spectacular. Just above middle of the road I guess. The staff is really awesome though. They are really friendly and are always watching a Chinese or Spanish TV station.
One awesome thing about Primo is that they take credit cards with no complaints! Very rare for a Beef Stand.
Not a fan. Â Use to call for delivery on a regular basis. Â Order would be correct and hot. Â Called for delivery which ended up my last time.
Order:
1 Gyro w/ cheese fires
1 Grilled chicken sandwich w/ fries
What arrived:
1 Gyro w/ cheese fries
1 Fried Chicken Sandwich
Paid and tipped the delivery man and went into eat. Â The BF went ballistic on me as I ordered the wrong sandwich. Â I clearly know the difference between fried and grilled.
Called up Primo and told them the issue. Â I am told if i want a grilled chicken sandwich I would need to pay for it and the delivery fee.
I told Primo to take a leap...haven't ordered from there since. Â After 3 years of ordering from them you would think their service would have been better. Â I clearly know what I ordered and they were in the wrong.
This is one of those hole in the wall places that is located in a tiny plaza that you just stumble upon, and maybe because of proximity to where you live you figure that it will do. Â You can get pizza and many other unhealthy related items here. Â I was surprised by the choices and they do have salad here too. Â It was decided by my boyfriend that we should get the baked mostaccoli with meat sauce here so we got 3 orders for each one of us. Â It comes with garlic bread and a huge portion and it's entirely covered with mozzarella cheese that is just caked on top like it's frosting on a cake. Â So, if you love baked cheese - this is the place to come to. Â I actually like that there's a lot of sauce and that it's not dry. Â The prices are pretty average, but I haven't had anything else here. Â The people here don't talk much, but they'll get you what you want.
Review Source:I've never had pizza here except for the slices (which are pretty good); I usually get a hot dog or chili dog. Â The dogs are pretty good; not the best on earth, but the chili is way up there (the kinda thick/pasty variety that lends itself well to a hot dog, w/out being messy). Â Fries are decent, though sometimes a bit overcrisp and kinda hollow, as if they've sat out and been re-fried. Â Not a big fan of the paper plates when eating in, but I suppose it's more eco-friendly than styro or over-packaging. Â The staff is invariably friendly, they have a full selection of greasy fast food, and it's super cheap. Â What more could you ask for?
Review Source:I got two slices of primos pizza while I was driving to the airport and I couldn't eat them fast enough. Â They were not as thin as I like but they were greasy and cheezy which I like. Â I got an RC. Â They were ready to go and cheap. Â You can't really go wrong with Primos even if you are driving. Â I like the old school decor and the fact that english is not required: I could barely talk and they still understood me. Â Also there is a park across the street if you wanted to crash there and eat and parking. Â The slices aren't over sized but doughy. Â Good sauce and sausage.
Review Source:primos is money in the bank
pizza is cheap and good because pizza can't be bad. and if you think pizza is bad anywhere, they you, my little sally sue, need to have a one on one talk with your taste buds, like they were your children and you need to tell them the importance about sex and drugs.
jumbo hot dog, fries, and pop for less than $4 is a great deal. everything they make is acceptably delicious and if primos had a stock option, i wouldn't get it, not because i don't believe in their business, but because i don't mess with the stock market.
don't talk to strangers
We go to only the fanciest places. Â I've lived in Andersonville for a total of three days and we've hit this place, White Castle and the local Mexican dive place.
The Italian beef is good, better when it's dipped. Â The fries are tasty. Â Everything was really hot and fresh. Â Good for you? Â Not so much? Â But it tastes good, isn't that enough?
I'm happy that they deliver locally, too.
