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.

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 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.

This is the best pizza we have had in a long time. The sauce and crust are exceptional. Other reviews have mentioned the soft drinks and there really is a good selection. Pomegranate sparkling water was a favorite for our group. The owner is friendly and you can taste the effort he has put into perfecting this pizza.

I couldn't be happier that West Town Pizza Shop has opened just down the street from where I live. For those of us who live west of Western off of North Avenue, know that we don't have many options for good food. The place serves whole Pizzas and by the slice. And the slices are huge. But don't think because the slices are big the quality is not there. The place has been only open for a couple of months and I've been there 4 times already. Besides Pizza, they offer, sandwiches, salads, cheesy garlic bread, calamari and cheesecake. The owner/cook has put a lot of thought and energy into the food and it shows. The restaurant is located inside the Habibi Grocery store right off of North Avenue. Supposedly the owner has plans to expand the place and add outdoor seating. I hope that is the case because the only draw back to West Town is that it doesn't have much seating. But that's minor critique. West Town Pizza serves dine in food and take out prices.

Amazing food! We ordered the West Town Special and I absolutely LOVE how fresh all of the veggies are! There is nothing worse than ordering a pizza with veggies on it and they taste like they are out of a can. You won' find that here! The sausage had amazing flavor as well. The Greek salad and tiramisu are also delicious! I highly recommend trying this place out!
(5)Brad F.
Reliably fresh and delicious, reasonably priced, quality convenience food! Try the pizza but the expansive menu is worth exploring. Great salads, for example. It's just what the neighborhood needs.
(5)BM K.
This place is a real hidden gem in the neighborhood. Quality made to order with excellent fresh ingredients and a lot of different unique options. Everything I've ever ordered has been great and Safa the owner is a cool guy.
(5)Kristina M.
Ordered from here for the first time tonight (2/21) and wow was their pizza amazing. The crust was the perfect thickness, has plenty of cheese and sauce, and was all around perfect. I am so glad that I decided on trying out a new pizza place. I am looking forward to ordering from them again, and actually checking out their location.
(5)Mike W.
We just moved to the neighborhood and West Town Pizza was the perfect welcome. They've got thousands of customers and Sam, the owner, immediately made us feel like we were old friends. I've only tried the thin crust so far and It's outstanding. If you're looking for bar greasy thin crust, this isn't Pat's. There's a time and a place for Pat's! This is homemade stuff and Sam is back there busting ass! Try the Maplewood or the tuna specialty pizzas. The poppers left much to be desired, but the desserts more than made up for them.
(4)Rachael C.
Don't be afraid to order from this place based on the outside of the building. It looks like your average convenient store on North Ave, but it's not. The man at the front store is friendly and so are the employees in the back, where the pizza place is. Quality ingredients, cooked perfectly, and held up the next day. This place is definitely going in the pizza rotation. I can't wait to try more things from them. We live in Logan and they don't deliver to us - that's the only disappointing thing. **EDIT** After my review I was contact by West Town Pizza who said they'd deliver to us. WOW, what excellent customer service! We've already told our friends about this place but will continue to spread the word.
(5)Bex F.
A really solid choice for pizza, indeed. Ugh, we are just a mere two blocks off their delivery area which is frustrating, but, we order it for delivery to a nearby bar. Thin crust pepperoni is always our pie of choice and it's good. The crust is thin, almost the correct thin (in my book), the sauce is good, has a hint of smoky flavor to it, and always arrives hot and fresh and fast. It's not an inexpensive venture, but it's not too far off the farm. The one bummer is that they close at 10 pm, which for us is sometimes too early. I say, yes, try it!
(4)Howard L.
West Town Pizza is absolutely great. The owner Safa is incredibly friendly and puts a lot of effort into making awesome pizza and other food. I've had the pizza several times and it is consistently outstanding. It is also a great deal. Truly a hidden gem and worth a special stop to sample the pizza. Stop by and try it!
(5)Kimberly K.
I'm very confused by all the rave reviews. We got a caprese pizza and bosco sticks delivered on a Saturday night. It was fairly fast, but it wasn't very hot. Bosco sticks were fine. Typical. The pizza itself was not good at all. Crust tasted like cardboard and the sauce was very bland. Not a go to pizza place.
(2)Laura C.
On average we order from West Town 3-4 times a month. We are right down the street. NO MORE. My boyfriend is extremely lactose-intolerant. I specified no cheese on our order via grubhub and his sandwich came with cheese. When I called, a man picked up and at first told me that a meatball sub didn't come with cheese. He then proceeded to ask two other cooks if they had put cheese on my order and they all said no. He told me I was lying. WHAT?? I even said he could take this sandwich back when they delivered the correct one. He told me that he didn't have time to remake my order, he had other orders and that I was again, lying. He said "get a refund" and when I asked if he was going to refund it for me he said "You do it via grubhub. Call them. I can't help you." Needless to say I was super pissed & had every right to be. After I let him know this, he sent me off with a "f%^k you too." Awesome. Update: Just realized that the entire order was wrong. Where I ordered ravioli I now have a chicken sandwich (I think, looks very disgusting). I would call back and let them know but he'll probably say I was lying again.

Just called in with a coupon from yelp and the gentleman answered the phone "yeahhh" ok not sure how professional this was but we were off to a bad start. I asked to redeem a coupon 18" for $18 and free 2 litter on yelp, the guy said "ok cheese pizza right?" I asked dose it come with a topping? He said "yeahh I think 1 topping" I said ok so how much each additional topping? He said "Aawwwww $3" I said ok half cheese and half spinach, sausages & mushroom. He said "ook that will be $36" smh at this point picturing him picking his nose scratching his butt. I said "$18 +$3 +$3= $24" is the tax $12 because this order is for pick-up!!!! o_O very upsetting I'm a teacher and this poor guy is beyond lost. He said "I dont have a key for the register" LOL someone please get this guy a math book along with a key that attaches to his belt or necklace.. Maybe one day I'll get to try this famous pizza But until then this evening we had Vito & Angelo pizzeria on Fullerton, they were EXTREAMLY professional from the start. For $26 dollars I got my 18" thin crust with my choice of toppings, a free 12" cheese pizza and a free 2litter. Great Deal and Delicious. Dante's on armatage is good too love the NY style pizza there, must try .. :-)
(1)Rory V.
Just ordered from this pizza shop it arrived so fast, about 45 minutes faster than grub hub said! Delivery dude was very friendly. I ordered the 18" 1 topping w/ 2 liter deal. Pizza is good with some spicier sausage. Pizza was definitely not bland, and crust nice and thin & crispy. While it is not the best pizza I have ever had it is a great option for quick pizza delivery. I will order from here again, maybe trying more exotic toppings. Update: owner messaged me back right away saying thank you! 5 out of 5 for response and clearly very kind people that work here! Will be making it a regular stop/grubhub order.
(5)Jonathan P.
First thing I ate after I got off my plane. I almost walked past it as it's in a corner store. Way in the back is a pizza counter, some high stools, and a TV. I had a slice of deep dish sausage (ok) and thin crust pepperoni (very good). Those slices, can of diet coke, and a bottle of water came to $11. Good bargain imo There needs to be more ambiance or the title needs to read Pizza and Groceries.
(3)Mira S.
I'd driven past and not gone in because it's in this random little corner store, and I was dubious. When I finally confirmed on Yelp that it was here, I dropped by for some quick takeout. It's definitely smalltime. They only had one type of thin crust and one type of thick crust available for slice sale, not sure if that's always the case, but when I asked if there were any other varieties coming soon the guy behind the counter looked at me like like I had three heads, so I'm thinking the limited choice is the norm. I got a thin crust sausage slice with a soda for $5. The slice was basically a quarter or fifth of a pizza, the equivalent of two of what I consider normal slice size, and more than I could eat in one sitting. This reminded me a lot of a mid-range New York slice, at least when looking at it from above, although the crust wasn't crispy enough, it was still sort of doughy and not as good as standard New York fare. Overall, if you order a pie or are okay with limited selection, it's not a bad option, and was a decent slice. I'm glad I checked it out, and I expect I'll stop back in. It seemed like there was plenty of easy parking nearby. There's no seating. One could go to Humboldt or Wicker Park.
(4)Allen F.
I'm lucky enough to work down the block from WTP and I think they have some of the very best pizza on the north(ish) side. The staff is beyond friendly and accommodating and did I mention the pizza is great? If you find yourself in the area do yourself a favor and swing by!
(5)Nicholas B.
I can't say much more than the pizza was absolutely delicious. We got their 16" buffalo chicken deep dish, which serves 4 easily, we had a couple slices leftover. The marinara was replaced by the buffalo, and it was just really really good. Will order from here again in the future.
(5)Kathryn M.
WOW! Where do you get your bread? Unbelievable meatball sub, turkey sandwich (although you dont need all that mustard), and Italian beef. I cannot wait to stop in again. Fantastic sandwiches all around!
(5)R S.
Just ordered delivery and was very disappointed! Our margarita pizza was cold and flavorless. The crust tasted like cardboard. The Bosco sticks were just okay but also cold and the marinara sauce was terrible.
(1)Jake B.
This is not the place to order from if you want cheap pizza quick. It was moving day and I was hungry. Pizza seems to be the go-to when you're in a hurry, hungry, and all your dishes are packed up. I looked this place up on yelp, saw it had 1 "$" sign so I figured it was cheap. I ordered 1 small and 1 medium (both had 2 toppings) and without tip, it came to $41.00. I was not impressed.
(3)Bobby C.
West Town Pizza is AMAZING... Great balance of flavors, and well made crust. I understand Sam makes his own sausage too. This is an excellent pizza joint. Please enjoy!
(5)Kristin C.
West Town Pizza Shop is disguised (sneaky!) in a standard looking convenience store. The first time I came here, I thought, where the heck is this pizza shop hiding? Follow the good smells to the back of the store where you will find a delightful gentleman cooking up subs, salads and pizza. The thin crust is legit; and for $5 a slice (soda can included), the price is right. I highly recommend giving this place a whirl and picking up a slice or a whole pie. An excellent addition to the hood!
(4)Sindy F.
We've gotten delivery both times and it was super fast -- almost unbelievably fast and we probably live just on the outside of the their delivery area but they still come to us when we order on GrubHub (but not when we don't). The first time we tried the thin crust and it was warm and tasty. The second time we tried the deep dish and this is definitely the way to go! YUM. The pizza was almost too hot to eat when it got here (a full half hour before the ETA). I was impressed because like I said, we're not that close. The deep dish is prefect. It's just me and my husband here so the first time I ordered the 16" thin crust because it says it's for 3-4 people so I thought we would have leftovers. Well, we didn't! So, the second time I ordered the largest deep dish they have, 18" and we couldn't even eat half of it so there's a big difference. We got the West Town Special and it was delicious. The thin crust pizza is still good but I think they need to perfect it because the crust isn't thin enough. 5 stars because everything is right about this place!
(5)Julia D.
Bosco sticks had a weird taste. Got the chicago style thin crust, its definitely better than your cheap pizza options but not the best Ive ever had. I had my order delivered so maybe thats why I wasnt so impressed. Next time Im in the neighborhood Ill try the by the slice option. But honestly, if you are having an entire pizza delivered to your place there are much better options to consider.
(3)Tom B.
The pizza is excellent and $5.00 slice with a canned drink cannot be beat. The only thing that surpasses this pizza is how nice the owner Safa is.
(5)RJ W.
good pizza
(4)Meg r.
By far the tastiest pizza Ive had in a while. I got the small deep dish, and it was huge. The toppings were plentiful and the crust was so freakin tasty. Maybe i'll be able to convince them to deliver this pizza all the way to Irving n Sacramento.
(5)Ryan C.
For crying out loud, how in the world are you going to put a GOOD pizza place within steps of my house!?!? Do I need to put a sign out the road that reads "Watch out for guy with no self-control" so restaurant owners know to put their awesome pizza places elsewhere. We all know that other place that sells HUGE slices and a soda for $5. Don't act like you don't know who. It's the pizza place that lacks taste. Well, West Town Pizza sells a huge piece and a soda, as well...BUT it's good. Damn good. And you get slices of stuffed at any time you want. Naturally, the whole pie made to order is going to be better. I had received the flyers when they first opened, but ignored them like all other flyers that collect on my doorstep. I had several friends and called Congress Pizza to order a pizza and was told it would be an hour-hour/half before it arrived! What?!!? I don't think so. I remembered that flyer of a new pizza place and called. "It will be delivered in 30 minutes." Sure enough, they arrived in less than 30 with a pizza that was wonderful. Cheesy! Full of sauce! Damn tasty! If you stop in, say hello to Safa. Safa is the owner and a really cool guy. Over the last year I've watched my weight and have been good. I'm sure that I'll slowly regain it all back since it's soooo easy to step on over to this place. Ughh, no self control...
(5)Theodore B.
You should come here. Eight blocks in any direction, this is by far the best pizza by-the-slice place. I'd take this place's deep dish over the Chicago staples (Giordanos, Lou's, Pizanos, whatever) any day. Plus, none of those places sell by the slice, and here you can get huge, deep dish slices are 5$ with soda after tax. I'm going to go ahead and recommend the spinach and garlic. Usually when you get garlic on a pizzas it's cooked or roasted, but here there's a real strong flavor of raw garlic, which is way better. I haven't had thin crust, but I'd assume it rocks. I haven't had the thin crust, so I'm not sure how it measures up, but everything I've had on the menu rocks, so, my assumption is it's great. Pasta with marinara is great. So's the arabiata . Also, the owner's super friendly, the kinda guy to remember you when you come in. It's always great to come here. You won't regret it.
(5)Cheney T.
Placed an order for jalapeño poppers and the chèvre pizza over the phone when the grubhub app was down- can't remember the last time I called for delivery rather than ordering online. Gentleman on the line was super friendly and promised to have our food here within the hour. About 40 minutes later, I realize I'm in a dead zone in my apartment. Jog to the other end of the house and get a voicemail- pizza's ready for pickup. I feel awful- what kind of jerk has her phone off when a delivery person is stuck in the rain on a Saturday night in the middle of a very important Hawks game? I call the shop right back, apologize, explain I was hoping for delivery. Nice guy checks the delivery tracker- no problem. Pie is on its way. Food arrives in no time- literally still within the hour as originally promised, even after the mixup. Delivery guy is incredibly friendly and apologetic. On to the food- poppers are above average but not outstanding. That's cool though, they hit the spot. The chèvre pizza, though, with red sauce & chèvre & mozz & fresh basil presented in a sweet chiffonade, is fabulous. I've always had a difficult time finding solid thin crust in the neighborhood and while this wasn't the cracker crust I was truly craving (this is a bit thicker than cottage style and chewy), it was great. Nice balance of ingredients and the goat cheese really hit the spot. Two items isn't a worthy assessment of a full menu, but the awesome customer service and delicious tasting of their offering totally warrants a full five stars. Excited to try more.
(5)Jessica S.
On our way to the Chicago History Museum we thought we would grab a quick slice from West Town! This place was exactly what we were looking for! You walk into this convenience store, and head to the back for the pizza counter. Directly in front of the pizza counter there are a few stools and a counter area to eat at. So convenient ! The pizza is fresh and delicious, the staff is super friendly, and there is a lunch special that includes a slice (either thin or Chicago Style) that is as big as your head and a soda for $5. You simply can't beat this place!
(5)Michelle B.
Very, very surprised by this gem. I have had pizza in so many different establishments; this by far my all-time favorite. The owner (I think) is a charmcharismatic guy. I'm a neighbor who will be returning frequently!
(5)Katie K.
Super fast delivery!
(3)Shannon C.
Food arrived after 70 minutes. The delivery guy Benito was the only good thing about this restaurant. The food was not hot. It was soggy and not crispy. We paid for extra ranch but we didn't get nothing. The honey mustard was not good, it was like grainy. DO NOT GET HONEY MUSTARD OR PAY FOR EXTRA RANCH. IT'S A TRAP!!!!!!! DO NOT AND I REPEAT DO NOT ORDER DESSERT. The cheesecake on a stick we ordered was pre-made. They did not make them themselves. Same thing goes with the cannoli. NOT GOOD. I only gave it two stars because it was cheap and Benito is friendly. So yeah.
(2)Ben E.
Let's be honest here. The number of 5 star reviews for West Town Pizza Shop is ridiculous. It's just not that good. Anyone, and I mean anyone, who's even visited the NY/NJ area and gives this more than a generous 2 stars is lying. It only gets 3 from me because it's decent, clean, and the guy running the place is nice. Plus, pizza isn't all you can get here and the rest of the menu is perfectly ok. But that's it. This is just an ok, average, random place to get acceptable food. NY pizza lives or dies by its crust, ultimately. The crust here isn't hand tossed, it's not blistered much, and it's not very crisp. It is clearly pre-manufactured (you can see the evidence of that on the crust itself). The cheese, sauce, and toppings are fine but not particularly flavorful. When I was there, they only offered pepperoni and sausage by the slice. I don't know if they have cheese slices as well from time to time, but it seems like a shame not to have that as an option. But hey, a pretty large slice plus a soda for $5, tax included, isn't a bad deal for a quick lunch or dinner. There's not a lot of room for eating in, but you can do it if you need to -- just a counter with some stools. I'll go back and try the deep dish. Perhaps that'll alter my opinion. But the thin crust is not even worth your attention if you actually want something resembling real NYC pizza.
(3)Ceal P.
Solid 3.5 stars. I live in the neighborhood and found the rave reviews for this relatively new to the neighborhood pizza place. All in all, I love that I'm supporting local business, glad that they are doing good things. Reason for 3 and not 4 stars is that it's good but along north ave not the best and not doing crazy things that warrant 4 stars. Would def recommend locals to try it out because it's a solid choice especially to satiate a craving for pizza. The goods: - The filling is made of awesome ingredients -- meatball meat was moist and tasty, sausage did well - The deep dish is not what you could classically consider a deep dish -- it's an in between which is great b/c honestly sometimes pies are so filling you can't eat more than 1 piece - The dough is good, although would copy another poster in saying it doesn't taste hand tossed, probably pre-made/bought - Good amount of sauce, not too much and not too little. And the sauce itself was good The being-picky: - The mozzarella was pretty thick and when taken home was not the best, very tough tasting - Chicken tenders -- I get it, they don't specialize in tenders, but they're pre-bought pre-made tenders. Overall, I liked it. Not re-inventing the wheel, which I don't think they are intending to do. Solid pizza choice if you're in the neighborhood. The daily $5 pizza/soda special sounds like a great deal.
(3)Carrie G.
Deep dish is awesome. The spinach and garlic one is particularly amazing. I often call in advance and request vegetarian slices and the owner will accommodate. He is so nice! Thin crust is not thin enough and pretty doughy. But the $5 slice and pop deal can't be beat!
(4)Toddy Y.
I'm not sure how it's possible, but the deep dish here is in the same echelon as the big boys. And the thin is great, too. It's a huge relief to see something this good popping up this far west on North... Don't be fooled by the convenience-store facade, this pizza ranks! In case the Yelp! survey questions haven't figured this out yet, this is a take-out/delivery option as of yet - there is no dining room, just maybe a rail to stand against to eat it if you're on the go.
(5)Jack F.
Super fast delivery and great pizza at a decent price! When we're talking local pizza, this place is first on my list with Dante's at a close second (West Town Pizza is less expensive, though).
(5)matthew c.
This place is a true gem! Try it today.
(5)Mark D.
I'm really confused by the high rating. I recently had a 14" pepperoni pizza delivered via GrubHub and I was SO disappointed. I had such high pizza hopes based on the reviews. My pizza had a little cheese, a little sauce, and a little pepperoni. The crust was flavorless. I will not order again.
(2)Tim B.
For the Redditors out there: TL;DR I loved the environment, staff, food and chatted amiably with fellow customers who all felt the same. Anyways I'm only giving this place a 4 because I've been once since moving to Wicker and I understand I should temper my enthusiasm, but I really liked it. Light years ahead of anywhere in Lakeview (my former domicile). I looked up on Yelp "good pizza places" cause I wanted a Chicken Parm. This place had great reviews, so why not? I'm from the Long Island, NY area, and this place immediately made me feel like I was home. Ya know what the best sandwich places are? The kind that when you walk in they look like a Mini Mart and then the kitchen/deli is in the back. The fries were lights out, as was my Chicken Parm. The fact that 3 people behind me ordered the pizza is a sign that I need to expand my order. Go here! Also not for nothin, the employees were talkative and awesome!
(4)Michael J.
This pizza shop is located in the back of habibi convenience store. They offer five dollar slices of thick deep dish pizza with a soda. The pizza is fast and hits the spot, and surprisingly enough they have great espresso. This place has potential I hope they expand to their own store front.
(4)Donna K.
We live a couple of blocks away and decided to try out based on great reviews. We each had the thin crust pepperoni slice special . For 5 bucks you get a large portion and a drink . Super inexpensive and very tasty. We got it fresh out of the oven! We will be back. We were so full. The owner is very nice too. It is in the back of a store , which is a little weird. However , don't let it stop you from trying .
(5)Cody K.
Lunch options at work are usually limited to what's within walking distance, or a joint that delivers in a reasonable amount of time. West Town is the kind of place that tells you a time and shows up 15-20 mins earlier. That, and the food being incredibly above average for this area is what gives them top marks. Roast beef sandwich is a 9/10 Pizza 7/10 Chicken tenders 6.5/10
(5)Ira F.
Ordered thin pizza, the crust was some pre made product, not good. Salad was meh. Bosco sticks tasted like burnt garlic powder. Summary: a pretty gross experience. How this crap compels someone to go into the pizza business I will never understand. My delivery order for these 3 items was 47$. Order somewhere else.
(1)Steve N.
So great to have this joint right around the corner. Our neighborhood really needed a quality fast food place. Pizza was GOOD, and a HUGE slice to boot! Calamari and Italian beef/sausage combo was also really good! Also had a great variety of soft drinks. I'll be ordering from here often!! Didn't give it 5 stars because the food wasn't amazing (although this is not to be expected from a carry out joint) but the food was DAMN GOOD!!!
(4)Kriss S.
In this neighborhood, there's no shortage of spots where a righteous slice can be purchased; unfortunately, half of them are pretty mediocre. At one place, you have a crazy cheap slice that comes at the expense of it being stiff bread with more grease than toppings, while at another, you have to deal with limp slices that look emaciated and sad. West Town Pizza Shop just opened last month and already we've been by several times to grab a pie and a couple of sides of garlic fries. My lady loves the place because the friendly owner and the food, itself, reminds her of the spots she used to frequent in her home state of New Jersey (say what you will about Jersey, but where she lived, only 20 minutes from Port Authority, she had no shortage of great pizzerias). West Town dabbles on both sides of the 'za world, specializing in both thin crust and Chicago stuffed, a very neutral position that's likely to serve them well. Being right up the street from us is one huge perk, but even if we were farther away, delivery would be our go to option, because trust me, this place trumps the other places in the neighborhood. This'll definitely be a recurring spot when dinner time rolls around!
(5)Steph F.
If you're craving lighter healthy fare, double down on the house salad. it is UH-MAZING! The incredible vinaigrette is made in-house.
(5)John D.
Their thin crust is awesome! Great pizza at a good value. Super cheesy pizza so if you don't like cheese I would not recommend. The owner is always nice and they have a great deal on weekdays. I can't wait to try the deep dish but the thin crust is so good I have ordered it every time so far.
(5)Rubani S.
Personable owner and great pizza. I plan to try more things on the menu, but it's hard to steer away from the pizza special!
(5)Dave Z.
This place is delicious and cheap. I don't know if I've ever written a review before so to get me to the place would have to be quite respectable.
(5)Katy K.
The flavor of the sauce, toppings, cheese, seasoning are all great. The crust, however, at least the thin crust was a bit like cardboard. I normally always eat my crust, I'm not one to throw out any of my pizza, but the thin crust left much to be desired.
(3)Mimi P.
I was visiting my son in Chicago and we were both craving pizza, stopped by West town pizza and got slice of the homemade pepperoni and the roast beef sandwich We both loved the freshness and the taste . So I bought a whole pizza to go. I wish we had one like them in our neighborhood. I recommend this place and will go back when visiting my son.
(5)Ariana A.
Everytime I want to order from some place ....pizzahut (blah) giordanos( my favorite but takes too long) sandwiches like potbelly( they stop delivery at 7pm)....WEST TOWN PIZZA TO THE RESCUE!!! I LOVE THIS PLACE! They are about two three blocks away have not experienced dine in food but when they deliver to me evrything is always great!
(5)David G.
If you have the jones for a quick slice of thin or thick crust on the fly, West Town pizza is THE place to get it. Pizza tastes fresh, is not pricey, and the owner is on-site and super friendly! I have only gone with the basic staples so far (pepperoni, cheese, sausage), and have been quite happy gnawing on the cheesy goodness from the shop to my house, only to get home and realize I wish I had gotten another slice. Just saw they are on a popular food delivery site (not gonna buzz market, but it might rhyme with TubClub), and now that it is getting colder, chances are they will be my go to for the all too common pizza craving.

Best pizza in town! When I call, the owner recognizes me by my name which makes ordering easy :) Extremely friendly service! The location is very close to my house, which is awesome for my pizza cravings :)

Fresh ingredients and fast delivery! The sausage was awesome on the West Town Special and the cannoli was delicious. Overall it was great food at good price and quick service. I'll be ordering from here again!
(5)Aaron G.
I've already ordered 3 times from this place and the pizza is as good as it gets. The salads are also fresh and delicious. Delivery is always prompt and friendly. This is my new go to pizza spot!!!
(5)Tiffany H.
Fantastic pizza, great service. The owner was very kind and helped us with directions and tips for traveling. I had the spinach garlic deep dish which was delicious! For $5, it was definitely worth the money (you also get a free soda). Could not recommend this place enough!
(5)Frances V.
Great pizza, wings and fries! Service is amazing! Love this place! They make everything exactly the way I want and ask for it! You can taste the freshness, love and care in every bite! Thank you West Town Pizza Shop for great food and service! With Love, The Brisenos! P.S the oatmeal cookie was also delish AND HUGE!
(5)Christina E.
My husband and I are excited this place came to town! The pizza is VERY good. They clearly use a good pizza oven at this joint. The main reason I wanted to review it was for the other stuff on the menu. There was clearly alot of thought put into the non-pizza items. My favorite has been the feta sandwich. It doesn't sound like anythiing special but it's really delicious feta with walnuts, some fresh basil, cucumber and tomato. The bread they serve it on is super crusty and fresh and they use high quality olive oil. The servings are huge and I could have easily made two meals of it if I hadn't been famished. The salads are also very good. I'm excited to try the other vegetarian menu items. Being vegetarian it is exciting to have numerous options to choose from. This place is delicious and the quality of the ingredients is high- give it a go!
(5)Marta C.
Must say my staff had many positive comments about our pizza yesterday. We tried out the Buffalo Chicken on and it was tasty. We order pizza extra crispy and it was. Very delicious. I always get questions on where we got this pizza. West Town Pizza is definitely a staff favorite at ASI. Thank you for serving us well.
(5)Chalie P.
Best pizza i have had in a while and the slices are huge. Authentic deep dish pizza with sausage or spinach both which are incredible come with a pop for just 5 dollars. Italian beef is better than als beef and as good as jays. Very friendly staff and its very clean .i hope this place sticks around
(5)Aras R.
Amazing pizza. I tried both the thick and thin and have to say by far the best was a spinach and bacon deep dish. This is the place to go If you want to grab a quick slice for only 5 bucks or get an amazing deep dish that will hold you for a couple days. Great pizza and great people, a definite five starts.
(5)Renee D.
This is the best pizza we have had in a long time. The sauce and crust are exceptional. Other reviews have mentioned the soft drinks and there really is a good selection. Pomegranate sparkling water was a favorite for our group. The owner is friendly and you can taste the effort he has put into perfecting this pizza.

I couldn't be happier that West Town Pizza Shop has opened just down the street from where I live. For those of us who live west of Western off of North Avenue, know that we don't have many options for good food. The place serves whole Pizzas and by the slice. And the slices are huge. But don't think because the slices are big the quality is not there. The place has been only open for a couple of months and I've been there 4 times already. Besides Pizza, they offer, sandwiches, salads, cheesy garlic bread, calamari and cheesecake. The owner/cook has put a lot of thought and energy into the food and it shows. The restaurant is located inside the Habibi Grocery store right off of North Avenue. Supposedly the owner has plans to expand the place and add outdoor seating. I hope that is the case because the only draw back to West Town is that it doesn't have much seating. But that's minor critique. West Town Pizza serves dine in food and take out prices.
(4)Whitney S.
Amazing food! We ordered the West Town Special and I absolutely LOVE how fresh all of the veggies are! There is nothing worse than ordering a pizza with veggies on it and they taste like they are out of a can. You won' find that here! The sausage had amazing flavor as well. The Greek salad and tiramisu are also delicious! I highly recommend trying this place out!
(5)Sindy F.
We've gotten delivery both times and it was super fast -- almost unbelievably fast and we probably live just on the outside of the their delivery area but they still come to us when we order on GrubHub (but not when we don't). The first time we tried the thin crust and it was warm and tasty. The second time we tried the deep dish and this is definitely the way to go! YUM. The pizza was almost too hot to eat when it got here (a full half hour before the ETA). I was impressed because like I said, we're not that close. The deep dish is prefect. It's just me and my husband here so the first time I ordered the 16" thin crust because it says it's for 3-4 people so I thought we would have leftovers. Well, we didn't! So, the second time I ordered the largest deep dish they have, 18" and we couldn't even eat half of it so there's a big difference. We got the West Town Special and it was delicious. The thin crust pizza is still good but I think they need to perfect it because the crust isn't thin enough. 5 stars because everything is right about this place!
(5)Julia D.
Bosco sticks had a weird taste. Got the chicago style thin crust, its definitely better than your cheap pizza options but not the best Ive ever had. I had my order delivered so maybe thats why I wasnt so impressed. Next time Im in the neighborhood Ill try the by the slice option. But honestly, if you are having an entire pizza delivered to your place there are much better options to consider.
(3)Tom B.
The pizza is excellent and $5.00 slice with a canned drink cannot be beat. The only thing that surpasses this pizza is how nice the owner Safa is.
(5)RJ W.
good pizza
(4)Meg r.
By far the tastiest pizza Ive had in a while. I got the small deep dish, and it was huge. The toppings were plentiful and the crust was so freakin tasty. Maybe i'll be able to convince them to deliver this pizza all the way to Irving n Sacramento.
(5)matthew c.
This place is a true gem! Try it today.
(5)Mark D.
I'm really confused by the high rating. I recently had a 14" pepperoni pizza delivered via GrubHub and I was SO disappointed. I had such high pizza hopes based on the reviews. My pizza had a little cheese, a little sauce, and a little pepperoni. The crust was flavorless. I will not order again.

For crying out loud, how in the world are you going to put a GOOD pizza place within steps of my house!?!? Do I need to put a sign out the road that reads "Watch out for guy with no self-control" so restaurant owners know to put their awesome pizza places elsewhere. We all know that other place that sells HUGE slices and a soda for $5. Don't act like you don't know who. It's the pizza place that lacks taste. Well, West Town Pizza sells a huge piece and a soda, as well...BUT it's good. Damn good. And you get slices of stuffed at any time you want. Naturally, the whole pie made to order is going to be better. I had received the flyers when they first opened, but ignored them like all other flyers that collect on my doorstep. I had several friends and called Congress Pizza to order a pizza and was told it would be an hour-hour/half before it arrived! What?!!? I don't think so. I remembered that flyer of a new pizza place and called. "It will be delivered in 30 minutes." Sure enough, they arrived in less than 30 with a pizza that was wonderful. Cheesy! Full of sauce! Damn tasty! If you stop in, say hello to Safa. Safa is the owner and a really cool guy. Over the last year I've watched my weight and have been good. I'm sure that I'll slowly regain it all back since it's soooo easy to step on over to this place. Ughh, no self control...
(5)Bobby C.
West Town Pizza is AMAZING... Great balance of flavors, and well made crust. I understand Sam makes his own sausage too. This is an excellent pizza joint. Please enjoy!
(5)Kristin C.
West Town Pizza Shop is disguised (sneaky!) in a standard looking convenience store. The first time I came here, I thought, where the heck is this pizza shop hiding? Follow the good smells to the back of the store where you will find a delightful gentleman cooking up subs, salads and pizza. The thin crust is legit; and for $5 a slice (soda can included), the price is right. I highly recommend giving this place a whirl and picking up a slice or a whole pie. An excellent addition to the hood!
(4)BM K.
This place is a real hidden gem in the neighborhood. Quality made to order with excellent fresh ingredients and a lot of different unique options. Everything I've ever ordered has been great and Safa the owner is a cool guy.
(5)Kristina M.
Ordered from here for the first time tonight (2/21) and wow was their pizza amazing. The crust was the perfect thickness, has plenty of cheese and sauce, and was all around perfect. I am so glad that I decided on trying out a new pizza place. I am looking forward to ordering from them again, and actually checking out their location.
(5)Mike W.
We just moved to the neighborhood and West Town Pizza was the perfect welcome. They've got thousands of customers and Sam, the owner, immediately made us feel like we were old friends. I've only tried the thin crust so far and It's outstanding. If you're looking for bar greasy thin crust, this isn't Pat's. There's a time and a place for Pat's! This is homemade stuff and Sam is back there busting ass! Try the Maplewood or the tuna specialty pizzas. The poppers left much to be desired, but the desserts more than made up for them.
(4)Rachael C.
Don't be afraid to order from this place based on the outside of the building. It looks like your average convenient store on North Ave, but it's not. The man at the front store is friendly and so are the employees in the back, where the pizza place is. Quality ingredients, cooked perfectly, and held up the next day. This place is definitely going in the pizza rotation. I can't wait to try more things from them. We live in Logan and they don't deliver to us - that's the only disappointing thing. **EDIT** After my review I was contact by West Town Pizza who said they'd deliver to us. WOW, what excellent customer service! We've already told our friends about this place but will continue to spread the word.
(5)Bex F.
A really solid choice for pizza, indeed. Ugh, we are just a mere two blocks off their delivery area which is frustrating, but, we order it for delivery to a nearby bar. Thin crust pepperoni is always our pie of choice and it's good. The crust is thin, almost the correct thin (in my book), the sauce is good, has a hint of smoky flavor to it, and always arrives hot and fresh and fast. It's not an inexpensive venture, but it's not too far off the farm. The one bummer is that they close at 10 pm, which for us is sometimes too early. I say, yes, try it!
(4)Theodore B.
You should come here. Eight blocks in any direction, this is by far the best pizza by-the-slice place. I'd take this place's deep dish over the Chicago staples (Giordanos, Lou's, Pizanos, whatever) any day. Plus, none of those places sell by the slice, and here you can get huge, deep dish slices are 5$ with soda after tax. I'm going to go ahead and recommend the spinach and garlic. Usually when you get garlic on a pizzas it's cooked or roasted, but here there's a real strong flavor of raw garlic, which is way better. I haven't had thin crust, but I'd assume it rocks. I haven't had the thin crust, so I'm not sure how it measures up, but everything I've had on the menu rocks, so, my assumption is it's great. Pasta with marinara is great. So's the arabiata . Also, the owner's super friendly, the kinda guy to remember you when you come in. It's always great to come here. You won't regret it.

Placed an order for jalapeño poppers and the chèvre pizza over the phone when the grubhub app was down- can't remember the last time I called for delivery rather than ordering online. Gentleman on the line was super friendly and promised to have our food here within the hour. About 40 minutes later, I realize I'm in a dead zone in my apartment. Jog to the other end of the house and get a voicemail- pizza's ready for pickup. I feel awful- what kind of jerk has her phone off when a delivery person is stuck in the rain on a Saturday night in the middle of a very important Hawks game? I call the shop right back, apologize, explain I was hoping for delivery. Nice guy checks the delivery tracker- no problem. Pie is on its way. Food arrives in no time- literally still within the hour as originally promised, even after the mixup. Delivery guy is incredibly friendly and apologetic. On to the food- poppers are above average but not outstanding. That's cool though, they hit the spot. The chèvre pizza, though, with red sauce & chèvre & mozz & fresh basil presented in a sweet chiffonade, is fabulous. I've always had a difficult time finding solid thin crust in the neighborhood and while this wasn't the cracker crust I was truly craving (this is a bit thicker than cottage style and chewy), it was great. Nice balance of ingredients and the goat cheese really hit the spot. Two items isn't a worthy assessment of a full menu, but the awesome customer service and delicious tasting of their offering totally warrants a full five stars. Excited to try more.
(5)Jessica S.
On our way to the Chicago History Museum we thought we would grab a quick slice from West Town! This place was exactly what we were looking for! You walk into this convenience store, and head to the back for the pizza counter. Directly in front of the pizza counter there are a few stools and a counter area to eat at. So convenient ! The pizza is fresh and delicious, the staff is super friendly, and there is a lunch special that includes a slice (either thin or Chicago Style) that is as big as your head and a soda for $5. You simply can't beat this place!
(5)Ben E.
Let's be honest here. The number of 5 star reviews for West Town Pizza Shop is ridiculous. It's just not that good. Anyone, and I mean anyone, who's even visited the NY/NJ area and gives this more than a generous 2 stars is lying. It only gets 3 from me because it's decent, clean, and the guy running the place is nice. Plus, pizza isn't all you can get here and the rest of the menu is perfectly ok. But that's it. This is just an ok, average, random place to get acceptable food. NY pizza lives or dies by its crust, ultimately. The crust here isn't hand tossed, it's not blistered much, and it's not very crisp. It is clearly pre-manufactured (you can see the evidence of that on the crust itself). The cheese, sauce, and toppings are fine but not particularly flavorful. When I was there, they only offered pepperoni and sausage by the slice. I don't know if they have cheese slices as well from time to time, but it seems like a shame not to have that as an option. But hey, a pretty large slice plus a soda for $5, tax included, isn't a bad deal for a quick lunch or dinner. There's not a lot of room for eating in, but you can do it if you need to -- just a counter with some stools. I'll go back and try the deep dish. Perhaps that'll alter my opinion. But the thin crust is not even worth your attention if you actually want something resembling real NYC pizza.
(3)Ceal P.
Solid 3.5 stars. I live in the neighborhood and found the rave reviews for this relatively new to the neighborhood pizza place. All in all, I love that I'm supporting local business, glad that they are doing good things. Reason for 3 and not 4 stars is that it's good but along north ave not the best and not doing crazy things that warrant 4 stars. Would def recommend locals to try it out because it's a solid choice especially to satiate a craving for pizza. The goods: - The filling is made of awesome ingredients -- meatball meat was moist and tasty, sausage did well - The deep dish is not what you could classically consider a deep dish -- it's an in between which is great b/c honestly sometimes pies are so filling you can't eat more than 1 piece - The dough is good, although would copy another poster in saying it doesn't taste hand tossed, probably pre-made/bought - Good amount of sauce, not too much and not too little. And the sauce itself was good The being-picky: - The mozzarella was pretty thick and when taken home was not the best, very tough tasting - Chicken tenders -- I get it, they don't specialize in tenders, but they're pre-bought pre-made tenders. Overall, I liked it. Not re-inventing the wheel, which I don't think they are intending to do. Solid pizza choice if you're in the neighborhood. The daily $5 pizza/soda special sounds like a great deal.
(3)Carrie G.
Deep dish is awesome. The spinach and garlic one is particularly amazing. I often call in advance and request vegetarian slices and the owner will accommodate. He is so nice! Thin crust is not thin enough and pretty doughy. But the $5 slice and pop deal can't be beat!
(4)Toddy Y.
I'm not sure how it's possible, but the deep dish here is in the same echelon as the big boys. And the thin is great, too. It's a huge relief to see something this good popping up this far west on North... Don't be fooled by the convenience-store facade, this pizza ranks! In case the Yelp! survey questions haven't figured this out yet, this is a take-out/delivery option as of yet - there is no dining room, just maybe a rail to stand against to eat it if you're on the go.
(5)Michelle B.
Very, very surprised by this gem. I have had pizza in so many different establishments; this by far my all-time favorite. The owner (I think) is a charmcharismatic guy. I'm a neighbor who will be returning frequently!
(5)Katie K.
Super fast delivery!
(3)Shannon C.
Food arrived after 70 minutes. The delivery guy Benito was the only good thing about this restaurant. The food was not hot. It was soggy and not crispy. We paid for extra ranch but we didn't get nothing. The honey mustard was not good, it was like grainy. DO NOT GET HONEY MUSTARD OR PAY FOR EXTRA RANCH. IT'S A TRAP!!!!!!! DO NOT AND I REPEAT DO NOT ORDER DESSERT. The cheesecake on a stick we ordered was pre-made. They did not make them themselves. Same thing goes with the cannoli. NOT GOOD. I only gave it two stars because it was cheap and Benito is friendly. So yeah.
(2)Jack F.
Super fast delivery and great pizza at a decent price! When we're talking local pizza, this place is first on my list with Dante's at a close second (West Town Pizza is less expensive, though).
(5)Tim B.
For the Redditors out there: TL;DR I loved the environment, staff, food and chatted amiably with fellow customers who all felt the same. Anyways I'm only giving this place a 4 because I've been once since moving to Wicker and I understand I should temper my enthusiasm, but I really liked it. Light years ahead of anywhere in Lakeview (my former domicile). I looked up on Yelp "good pizza places" cause I wanted a Chicken Parm. This place had great reviews, so why not? I'm from the Long Island, NY area, and this place immediately made me feel like I was home. Ya know what the best sandwich places are? The kind that when you walk in they look like a Mini Mart and then the kitchen/deli is in the back. The fries were lights out, as was my Chicken Parm. The fact that 3 people behind me ordered the pizza is a sign that I need to expand my order. Go here! Also not for nothin, the employees were talkative and awesome!
(4)Michael J.
This pizza shop is located in the back of habibi convenience store. They offer five dollar slices of thick deep dish pizza with a soda. The pizza is fast and hits the spot, and surprisingly enough they have great espresso. This place has potential I hope they expand to their own store front.
(4)Donna K.
We live a couple of blocks away and decided to try out based on great reviews. We each had the thin crust pepperoni slice special . For 5 bucks you get a large portion and a drink . Super inexpensive and very tasty. We got it fresh out of the oven! We will be back. We were so full. The owner is very nice too. It is in the back of a store , which is a little weird. However , don't let it stop you from trying .
(5)Cody K.
Lunch options at work are usually limited to what's within walking distance, or a joint that delivers in a reasonable amount of time. West Town is the kind of place that tells you a time and shows up 15-20 mins earlier. That, and the food being incredibly above average for this area is what gives them top marks. Roast beef sandwich is a 9/10 Pizza 7/10 Chicken tenders 6.5/10
(5)Ira F.
Ordered thin pizza, the crust was some pre made product, not good. Salad was meh. Bosco sticks tasted like burnt garlic powder. Summary: a pretty gross experience. How this crap compels someone to go into the pizza business I will never understand. My delivery order for these 3 items was 47$. Order somewhere else.
(1)Steve N.
So great to have this joint right around the corner. Our neighborhood really needed a quality fast food place. Pizza was GOOD, and a HUGE slice to boot! Calamari and Italian beef/sausage combo was also really good! Also had a great variety of soft drinks. I'll be ordering from here often!! Didn't give it 5 stars because the food wasn't amazing (although this is not to be expected from a carry out joint) but the food was DAMN GOOD!!!
(4)Kriss S.
In this neighborhood, there's no shortage of spots where a righteous slice can be purchased; unfortunately, half of them are pretty mediocre. At one place, you have a crazy cheap slice that comes at the expense of it being stiff bread with more grease than toppings, while at another, you have to deal with limp slices that look emaciated and sad. West Town Pizza Shop just opened last month and already we've been by several times to grab a pie and a couple of sides of garlic fries. My lady loves the place because the friendly owner and the food, itself, reminds her of the spots she used to frequent in her home state of New Jersey (say what you will about Jersey, but where she lived, only 20 minutes from Port Authority, she had no shortage of great pizzerias). West Town dabbles on both sides of the 'za world, specializing in both thin crust and Chicago stuffed, a very neutral position that's likely to serve them well. Being right up the street from us is one huge perk, but even if we were farther away, delivery would be our go to option, because trust me, this place trumps the other places in the neighborhood. This'll definitely be a recurring spot when dinner time rolls around!
(5)Steph F.
If you're craving lighter healthy fare, double down on the house salad. it is UH-MAZING! The incredible vinaigrette is made in-house.
(5)John D.
Their thin crust is awesome! Great pizza at a good value. Super cheesy pizza so if you don't like cheese I would not recommend. The owner is always nice and they have a great deal on weekdays. I can't wait to try the deep dish but the thin crust is so good I have ordered it every time so far.
(5)Rubani S.
Personable owner and great pizza. I plan to try more things on the menu, but it's hard to steer away from the pizza special!
(5)Dave Z.
This place is delicious and cheap. I don't know if I've ever written a review before so to get me to the place would have to be quite respectable.
(5)Katy K.
The flavor of the sauce, toppings, cheese, seasoning are all great. The crust, however, at least the thin crust was a bit like cardboard. I normally always eat my crust, I'm not one to throw out any of my pizza, but the thin crust left much to be desired.
(3)Mimi P.
I was visiting my son in Chicago and we were both craving pizza, stopped by West town pizza and got slice of the homemade pepperoni and the roast beef sandwich We both loved the freshness and the taste . So I bought a whole pizza to go. I wish we had one like them in our neighborhood. I recommend this place and will go back when visiting my son.
(5)Ariana A.
Everytime I want to order from some place ....pizzahut (blah) giordanos( my favorite but takes too long) sandwiches like potbelly( they stop delivery at 7pm)....WEST TOWN PIZZA TO THE RESCUE!!! I LOVE THIS PLACE! They are about two three blocks away have not experienced dine in food but when they deliver to me evrything is always great!
(5)Kevin S.
Fresh ingredients and fast delivery! The sausage was awesome on the West Town Special and the cannoli was delicious. Overall it was great food at good price and quick service. I'll be ordering from here again!
(5)Aaron G.
I've already ordered 3 times from this place and the pizza is as good as it gets. The salads are also fresh and delicious. Delivery is always prompt and friendly. This is my new go to pizza spot!!!
(5)Tiffany H.
Fantastic pizza, great service. The owner was very kind and helped us with directions and tips for traveling. I had the spinach garlic deep dish which was delicious! For $5, it was definitely worth the money (you also get a free soda). Could not recommend this place enough!

My husband and I are excited this place came to town! The pizza is VERY good. They clearly use a good pizza oven at this joint. The main reason I wanted to review it was for the other stuff on the menu. There was clearly alot of thought put into the non-pizza items. My favorite has been the feta sandwich. It doesn't sound like anythiing special but it's really delicious feta with walnuts, some fresh basil, cucumber and tomato. The bread they serve it on is super crusty and fresh and they use high quality olive oil. The servings are huge and I could have easily made two meals of it if I hadn't been famished. The salads are also very good. I'm excited to try the other vegetarian menu items. Being vegetarian it is exciting to have numerous options to choose from. This place is delicious and the quality of the ingredients is high- give it a go!
(5)Marta C.
Must say my staff had many positive comments about our pizza yesterday. We tried out the Buffalo Chicken on and it was tasty. We order pizza extra crispy and it was. Very delicious. I always get questions on where we got this pizza. West Town Pizza is definitely a staff favorite at ASI. Thank you for serving us well.
(5)Chalie P.
Best pizza i have had in a while and the slices are huge. Authentic deep dish pizza with sausage or spinach both which are incredible come with a pop for just 5 dollars. Italian beef is better than als beef and as good as jays. Very friendly staff and its very clean .i hope this place sticks around
(5)Brad F.
Reliably fresh and delicious, reasonably priced, quality convenience food! Try the pizza but the expansive menu is worth exploring. Great salads, for example. It's just what the neighborhood needs.
(5)Howard L.
West Town Pizza is absolutely great. The owner Safa is incredibly friendly and puts a lot of effort into making awesome pizza and other food. I've had the pizza several times and it is consistently outstanding. It is also a great deal. Truly a hidden gem and worth a special stop to sample the pizza. Stop by and try it!
(5)Jonathan P.
First thing I ate after I got off my plane. I almost walked past it as it's in a corner store. Way in the back is a pizza counter, some high stools, and a TV. I had a slice of deep dish sausage (ok) and thin crust pepperoni (very good). Those slices, can of diet coke, and a bottle of water came to $11. Good bargain imo There needs to be more ambiance or the title needs to read Pizza and Groceries.
(3)Kimberly K.
I'm very confused by all the rave reviews. We got a caprese pizza and bosco sticks delivered on a Saturday night. It was fairly fast, but it wasn't very hot. Bosco sticks were fine. Typical. The pizza itself was not good at all. Crust tasted like cardboard and the sauce was very bland. Not a go to pizza place.
(2)Laura C.
On average we order from West Town 3-4 times a month. We are right down the street. NO MORE. My boyfriend is extremely lactose-intolerant. I specified no cheese on our order via grubhub and his sandwich came with cheese. When I called, a man picked up and at first told me that a meatball sub didn't come with cheese. He then proceeded to ask two other cooks if they had put cheese on my order and they all said no. He told me I was lying. WHAT?? I even said he could take this sandwich back when they delivered the correct one. He told me that he didn't have time to remake my order, he had other orders and that I was again, lying. He said "get a refund" and when I asked if he was going to refund it for me he said "You do it via grubhub. Call them. I can't help you." Needless to say I was super pissed & had every right to be. After I let him know this, he sent me off with a "f%^k you too." Awesome. Update: Just realized that the entire order was wrong. Where I ordered ravioli I now have a chicken sandwich (I think, looks very disgusting). I would call back and let them know but he'll probably say I was lying again.

Just called in with a coupon from yelp and the gentleman answered the phone "yeahhh" ok not sure how professional this was but we were off to a bad start. I asked to redeem a coupon 18" for $18 and free 2 litter on yelp, the guy said "ok cheese pizza right?" I asked dose it come with a topping? He said "yeahh I think 1 topping" I said ok so how much each additional topping? He said "Aawwwww $3" I said ok half cheese and half spinach, sausages & mushroom. He said "ook that will be $36" smh at this point picturing him picking his nose scratching his butt. I said "$18 +$3 +$3= $24" is the tax $12 because this order is for pick-up!!!! o_O very upsetting I'm a teacher and this poor guy is beyond lost. He said "I dont have a key for the register" LOL someone please get this guy a math book along with a key that attaches to his belt or necklace.. Maybe one day I'll get to try this famous pizza But until then this evening we had Vito & Angelo pizzeria on Fullerton, they were EXTREAMLY professional from the start. For $26 dollars I got my 18" thin crust with my choice of toppings, a free 12" cheese pizza and a free 2litter. Great Deal and Delicious. Dante's on armatage is good too love the NY style pizza there, must try .. :-)

Just ordered from this pizza shop it arrived so fast, about 45 minutes faster than grub hub said! Delivery dude was very friendly. I ordered the 18" 1 topping w/ 2 liter deal. Pizza is good with some spicier sausage. Pizza was definitely not bland, and crust nice and thin & crispy. While it is not the best pizza I have ever had it is a great option for quick pizza delivery. I will order from here again, maybe trying more exotic toppings. Update: owner messaged me back right away saying thank you! 5 out of 5 for response and clearly very kind people that work here! Will be making it a regular stop/grubhub order.

I'd driven past and not gone in because it's in this random little corner store, and I was dubious. When I finally confirmed on Yelp that it was here, I dropped by for some quick takeout. It's definitely smalltime. They only had one type of thin crust and one type of thick crust available for slice sale, not sure if that's always the case, but when I asked if there were any other varieties coming soon the guy behind the counter looked at me like like I had three heads, so I'm thinking the limited choice is the norm. I got a thin crust sausage slice with a soda for $5. The slice was basically a quarter or fifth of a pizza, the equivalent of two of what I consider normal slice size, and more than I could eat in one sitting. This reminded me a lot of a mid-range New York slice, at least when looking at it from above, although the crust wasn't crispy enough, it was still sort of doughy and not as good as standard New York fare. Overall, if you order a pie or are okay with limited selection, it's not a bad option, and was a decent slice. I'm glad I checked it out, and I expect I'll stop back in. It seemed like there was plenty of easy parking nearby. There's no seating. One could go to Humboldt or Wicker Park.

I'm lucky enough to work down the block from WTP and I think they have some of the very best pizza on the north(ish) side. The staff is beyond friendly and accommodating and did I mention the pizza is great? If you find yourself in the area do yourself a favor and swing by!

I can't say much more than the pizza was absolutely delicious. We got their 16" buffalo chicken deep dish, which serves 4 easily, we had a couple slices leftover. The marinara was replaced by the buffalo, and it was just really really good. Will order from here again in the future.

WOW! Where do you get your bread? Unbelievable meatball sub, turkey sandwich (although you dont need all that mustard), and Italian beef. I cannot wait to stop in again. Fantastic sandwiches all around!

Just ordered delivery and was very disappointed! Our margarita pizza was cold and flavorless. The crust tasted like cardboard. The Bosco sticks were just okay but also cold and the marinara sauce was terrible.

This is not the place to order from if you want cheap pizza quick. It was moving day and I was hungry. Pizza seems to be the go-to when you're in a hurry, hungry, and all your dishes are packed up. I looked this place up on yelp, saw it had 1 "$" sign so I figured it was cheap. I ordered 1 small and 1 medium (both had 2 toppings) and without tip, it came to $41.00. I was not impressed.
