    Good, but not impressive. I had high expectations for the classic pizzas, and while they were good, I’ve had better elsewhere.

    Deep dish was on point - fantastic. Pass on the thin crust. Perhaps not their specialty, but just sub par. Malnati’s salad also terrific. Service…not so much.

    Great experience! Pizza was fantastic! Service was great. The serving sizes listed by the pies are accurate. We ordered too much and were headed to an event right after and couldn’t take the leftovers with us unfortunately.

    Not the BEST Chicago deep dish but very good. Sauce was excellent and so was the sausage. Don’t skip the chicken wings! Got the Parmesan garlic and they were excellent. Our server was amazing and so friendly. Took time even on a busy Saturday to talk with our kids and engage with them.
