Not Chicago style , but a great pie nonetheless. Not feeling pizza then make your own salad ...They have lots of fun ingredients.

Mozzarella sticks best in the city . Still thinking about the Big Mac pizza too.

After the meal, you get a hot towel to cleanse your hands (at least in the winter). Kinda like going to a Japanese restaurant ...nice touch.

Sit at the bar and order yourself a beer , mozzarella sticks and a pizza . You'll be happy you did.

Pizza , mozzarella sticks and probably the best build your own salad around!!

Try the mozzarella sticks from our 100 Best list: You’ve got to give props to a mozzarella stick whose mozz is made in-house.

I spent more time reading the beer list than the menu. Their pizza is awesome.

I'd skip the pizza rage and BUILD YOUR OWN SALAD . It comes tossed for you w/ several different ingredient choices. It's a hearty & filling size too!

Mozzerella sticks and the beer list really add to the amazing pizza

Great regional beer selection . Build your own salad is cool. Everything else is on the heavy side.

Try the new drafts . Arcade's Graveyard is a go-to for those early mornings ????

Open storefront, great craft beer selection and really good calamari !

The tomato , avocado , mozz salad is everything! Not a fan of cilantro ? Just switch to honey dressing

It just opened on May 31, give it a couple of weeks to get service right. Place is too big for the staff to currently handle. Be ready for loud people enjoying the libations. Nice sitting with windows

Build your own salad is great. Good ingredients and everything is finely chopped.

Good pizza , solid beer list . Calamari is pretty skimpy for the price.

Its a pretty cool place. Free Pizza at the bar after 10 on Wednesdays. But the pizza is not one of my top picks in Chicago.

Grilled shrimp & calamari is delicious if your looking for a healthy option .

Really good pizza and the fresh squeezed lemonade is awesome. If you want a mixed drink ask for a Naughty Lemonade .

Great build your own salad option!

Taco pizza is about as close to perfect as mere mortals can muster.
