Taylor Street Pizza

In spite of memories I have of eating this pizza with my ex-in-laws, I still come back here when I'm in this part of town.  This thin crust is the real deal- it's a nice crispy crust with just the right amount of sauce and toppings.  My personal favorite here is the extra sausage well done.  Their sausage is perfect here- it's super mild tasting and is pretty good quality, there's no fennel noticeable in it.  They bake the pizza perfectly when it's well done, it has a nice caramelized cheese on top that is amazing.

The salads are lousy, and the slices for sale are nothing like the whole pies.

This is definitely a carryout place.  There's a picnic table and a few flimsy chairs inside.  I've always been happy with the staff (on the phone and in person), so no knocks there.  The thin crust pizza here is the real deal.  Definitely in my top 10 all time favorites.

The woman taking my order on the phone was a mess and put me on hold several times for long periods.  After about 10 minutes, I had to hand the phone to my husband so I could attend to my toddler son.  I thought delivery pizza was supposed to be the easy choice for dinner!  Finally we were able to get our order in after about 15 minutes of being on hold, being told the computer was down, being asked our address several times, etc.  The price was really expensive but we figured we would roll with it since it took so long to order.  Pizza arrived and was disappointing.  Overall flavor was good -- good cheese and sauce -- but the crust was not good.  It was very crispy.  That being said, we are not native Chicagoans and prefer our pizza East Coast style, so take this review with a grain of salt.  We will not re-order from here and our quest for good delivery pizza continues!

My family loves Taylor St. Pizza. We always order the XL thin crust pizza. Very fresh quality ingredients. They put a layer of cheese on top of the pepperoni which is great!
