Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

My large family went here for pizza and it was great! The dining area here is pretty small, so we kind of took over. I think they maybe have seating for 20 and there were 8 of us. We had several kinds of pizza and tried the calamari which I was told was very good. The pizza was tasty and everyone was happy with their dinner. Stop by and support this local business!

We often have Evviva Pizza and it is always good. We have never had a problem there at all. This weekend, we catered our birthday party lunch from Evviva. The food we had was Italian beef, mostaccioli, roasted potatoes, and the Evviva salad. All turned out great. Their italian beef is lean and not fatty. The mostaccioli is more of a pasta/sauce combo than a baked mostaccioli with a lot of cheese. We enjoyed it this way very much. The roasted potatoes received the most compliments from our guests. I asked for this item and they accommodated. I think they should add it to their menu! The salad was well made. Overall, it was an extremely positive experience.

My Dad orders Evviva Pizza on a weekly basis. I've yet to order my own pizza, and I most likely never will, because my Pizza Loyalty lies elsewhere. I'm never really out and about for Pizza, so the slices aren't really an option either. My Dad (roommate as well) usually orders some variant of a sausage pizza with their traditional crust. It's not as thick as a double dough pie you would get at another pizza place, but it has more substance than your standard thin crust pie. It's obviously thicker than cracker crust, too. I've only had one square of the pie, and it's just okay. Personally, I've had their Cobb salad on two occasions. It comes with their homemade vinagrette on the side (at least it has per my requests). It has grilled chicken, bacon, blue cheese, small tubey (don't know name) pasta, avocado, and hard boiled eggs. I really like it! I've had it twice, and even with my special orders (No cheese on time; No bacon and cheese the other) it has been great and correct on both orders. It's 8 dollars, and although I could make it at home, I wasn't paying, so kudos to you Evviva! I should also add that the salad features tomatoes, which add a nice flavor as well. They have free wi fi. This spot has been plagued, but it seems that this tenant has staying power. They have another location in Lisle. That place, as far as I know, it a larger/bar/restaurant type place. This location has a small area for sitdown, and features pizza, pasta, some entrees, and even gelato! Probably a 3.5 star, but nothing says wow, hence the 3.

Got a groupon for this place and decided to check it out, it's very close to home and I am always looking to try new places for pizza. I ordered a stuffed sausage and pepperoni pizza for take out, and swung by to pick it up. Pros: Parking was easy. Very nice little storefront shop, people inside working were very friendly. I liked the decor, it gave off a welcome atmosphere, I wouldn't have minded staying . Cons: The pizza was... meh. If you're going to do a stuffed, it's gotta compete, there's some quality pizza joints in the area and you got to stand out. The sausage was bland, the pepperoni was very greasy, and the crust pretty much fell apart when we pulled the slices away. I probably will be back for a sandwich as they look pretty good but I doubt I'll get the pizza again.

Best place to eat or take a bite to go! They have by far the best Italian food in wheaton! The calazone, chili, fried mac'n'cheese bites, salads, burgers, pizza are all to die for! IT IS HEAVEN!

Evviva is far from being the best Italian restaurant in the world, but it's great for a fairly inexpensive and decent meal. They serve pizzas both by the slice and by the pie--2 slices should suffice if you're dining alone. The best thing Evviva has to offer, however, is its homemade gelato. It comes in servings small enough for a light dessert or for a mid-day snack. Wheaton students get nice discount on certain days of the week when they present their IDs or Wheatie cards. The dining area is a bit cramped, making it inconvenient for groups larger than about 4-5. people. It's a better location for a few friends or a last-minute date than, say, a family meal. With no outdoor seating, either, it's a bit hard to grab a seat What it lacks in seating, though, it makes up for with a relatively helpful staff. Pizza aficionados, keep moving--you'll find better at most other Chicagoland pizzerias. Everyone else, Evviva is worth at least a few visits.

Pretty standard fare here. The pizza is average, which could be said of most pizza places in the western suburbs. They have a pretty large menu for a small place. The vodka pasta is real good but a little oversauced. Everything else I've tried id average. The wings are below average. Don't get them. They undercook the heck out of them. They offer gelato, which is good. Given the dearth of restaurants in this neighborhood I'm glad they're here but don't expect amazing food.

Very consistent as per my last review. Excellent food. Reasonable prices. A good addition to the college area.
(5)Bill R.
The pizza and sandwiches here are fantastic. Also the gellato is really good. This is a small place with a lot of character. No liquor license but otherwise this place is a local gem.

Heard of this place through a Groupon. We ordered two pizzas tonight; a cheese extra cheese with a little sauce and a sausage, green pepper, and onion (both thin crust). First, they got the orders perfect....some places mess up the little sauce option. The pizza was very good. A nice change from places that are closer to home. Also ordered a meatball sandwich and fries which was okay. The fries could have used a longer time in the fryer and more salt and the bread was a bit hard. Overall we enjoyed the food and would be back. They gave awesome coupons which makes up for the drive for us.

Evviva Pizzeria and Cafe is a small pizza joint located off of College Avenue in Wheaton within walking distance of the College Avenue Metra station. Having passed by here a few times and being held up from crossing the railroad tracks I decided to stop by one day as I saw a sign that mentioned Pizza slices. Once I walked in, I was informed that no slices were ready, but I looked over the menu a little more thoroughly and noticed they had hot dogs. I decided to try the hot dog here which included fries. While I waited I looked around and noticed that the place was very well decorated and had an intentional rustic design to the interior. I very much get the sense that the intended design of this place was for a coffee house of some type and the other food items got added as time went on to increase appeal. After around ten minutes my food was ready and since it was served to me in a container I took it to go. Upon arriving at home shortly afterwards it was time to dig in. The hot dog I received was a jumbo skinless hot dog of some undetermined type ( not the usual Vienna Beef or Red Hot Chicago dogs widely served in Chicagoland). It came on a not particularly soft, but not hard bun. On the dog itself was only tomato pieces and onions along with a large pickle spear. In the container with the hot dog and fries were packets of mustard and ketchup. The hot dog itself wasn't that great, not a particularly strong flavor. The bun wasn't very soft and the tomato slices were a little too wet and made it soggy. The fries included with this hot dog were thicker than usual crinkle cut fries. They weren't particularly salty or greasy and had a lot of bland potato paste on the inside. These weren't bad, I prefer these to a lot of places "fresh cut fries" but they weren't good enough to salvage the experience. When I get a plain-ish hot dog like this it's always hard to rate the experience as I can't comment on condiment application. While tomato and onion were applied to this dog it doesn't give me enough ground to cover this hot dog as I do most places. Overall I'd say this was a bit too expensive for what you get and you can do better. While not terrible, I am going to say it's below average and give it two stars. Maybe the pizza here is better, and if I get around to trying it I'll update this review.

I was not planning on trying this, but my parents always order it so I decided to help them finish their pizza. This is something I think people in the suburbs take for granted: solid pizza! In central Illinois where I live...this stuff is hard to find. Pizza Hut and Monical's don't do it for me! Anyways, I tried a few slices of sausage and my mom's special order (Evviva Choice). It tasted so generic. Solid sauce, not enough cheese for my liking, and the crust being chewy and not crunchy. Would I order ever? Probably not due to Gianorio's and Lou Malnati's being in the area! My dad loves this place because of their coupons. The mural on the side of the building is quite awesome! I recommend the mural, not the pizza!

The Gluten Free Pizza is amazing! I can now have pizza and not be sick; never thought it could happen! The gelato is out of this world! The staff is helpful, patient, accommodating, and very friendly! They have gluten free pasta too! I will be visiting regularly!! Must go!

This is very close to home for me, so the location is very convenient. However, they have yet to get my order right. Our pizzas have been the wrong size, wrong ingredient wrong crust, etc. Tonight I made the mistake of picking up the order instead of delivery. They kept me waiting forever and when I got home the pizza was only half cooked. Raw, doughy crust. I've had enough. Never again.

We ordered wings and a salad for delivery - their salad was very good as were the wings. I would give this place more stars because everything tasted very good, however, they forgot the extra ranches we ordered (and paid for), and we ordered a dozen wings and we got 9. Apparently whoever was working there that night can't count. But it was very disappointing to feel we were ripped off on our order in two different ways! In the future, I'll stick with Giordanos.

I have never actually visited this place so I can't give it full stars yet, BUT, my Mom purchased their gelato recently to-go and it was really good! I'm a big gelato snob so it takes a lot for me to recommend a gelato and I really enjoyed the quality of Evviva's. Very soft and flavorful and not too milky tasting, perfect! We had the raspberry and the pistachio. I'll definitely come in to try the other food!

Great Lunch stop on the outskirts of Wheaton College. It took a while to open but I am happy it did. The sandwiches and salads are fabulous with friendly service and what seems to be a warm regular clientele. Prices are lunchtime prices and the slices of za I saw coming out at the tables next to me has put it back on my list of must try. I can't wait. Sneak over to this place next time you hit the Wheaton Farmers Market!

Attention former Ciceronians & Berwynites! This place is owned by a relative of one of the original Salerno Brothers. The pizza is a slightly updated version of the old standby and much better than what you'll get at Salerno's in Oak Park. Since Arnie Salerno's by MacNeal Hospital is no longer operating, this is your best bet when you get a craving for that "back home" pizza. The place is tiny, but impeccably clean and the people who work there are fantastic. They even turned down the music in the place without being asked so my friend & I could talk!

This is a little out-of-the-way pizza place by Wheaton College. Mondays, they have buy-one-pizza, get one free, any size. There is a small area where you can eat in, but they really don't specialize in that, as there's no washroom, I had to walk to Wheaton Train Station to use the restroom, which is a turn off. Second, you have to use coin metered parking...great if you're eating on the fly, but not if you want to sit, eat and read and relax, which i like to do while eating. The pizza is pretty good and filling, pasta portions are HUGE, and I like the place.
(4)J W.
Pizza is great -- one of the best places our family has found in Wheaton. I'm only giving them 4 stars however, because the past 2 times they haven't gotten our order correct. The first time they didn't make the pizza correctly and the second time they only gave us 2 side salads instead of the 3 (I double checked the receipt and we did in fact pay for 3). Great food but definitely make sure they get your order correct.
(4)Alex W.
That was short lived. They started using low grade ingredients. Dunno if they are struggling financially or what but I won't be going back till they fix this mess.
(2)Joe B.
Just got carry-out from this place for the first time, and I was impressed. Order was done in less than 20 minutes, the portions were sizable, the price was better than expected, and the food was absolutely delicious. This will be my lunch-time destination for a long time.
