   We enjoyed Professor Pizza and was the perfect place for dinner before the Second City show. The Detroit and New York style were great!

   I come to Chicago a lot. My daughter lives there for 10 years now so we have tried all the pizza. This is hands down our favorite. We got the mozzarella cheese stick onion rings, the grandma crust, and the Detroit style + drinks. Perfection. Everyone was super friendly, checked in, and thanked us for our visit. Give them a shot. You won't be disappointed!

   The reason for my score, what’s based on our inability full fill our reservation. We had tickets for a show next door at 8 pm. So, after placing our reservations, we tried calling in ahead to pre order. After no less than 9 unanswered calls to pre order, we arrived at Professor pizza. Then we were told it would be 45min to an hr for our pizza to be ready. So we had to walk out and grab a bite and a drink elsewhere. Sorry guys, the place is highly recommended on all outlets, the place looked nice, the staff seemed pleasent, and they weren’t busy. Not sure why the hard fail on customer service. Maybe one day we will try it again. Hopefully management reads this.

   We went here with family that was visiting from California. I had seen it on IG for their mozzarella onion rings and had to try them. They were so good! But...we all agreed that the pizza was some of the best we have ever had. One of the girls was from Queens and had never seen the a restaurant outside of Queens that had Grandma style crust...it was so good. We also got a detroit style white pizza - highly recommend. It had caramelized cheese, white sauce and ricotta with a hot honey sauce on it. The service was great, not super loud and love that there are 5 different types of crust to choose from. Will absolutely be frequenting this place more.

   Pizza was unique and incredible. The New York pizza was huge, great value. I usually do not like how salty pepperoni is but here it is not at all. The owner was so hospitable and going around to every table. Will be back soon :)

    Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. The menu was a little limited - only two salad options (wedge or panzanella). Had the Detroit style pizza and should have done Sicilian or New York.
