A good place and vibe to eat at. The food was flavorful and the mozzarella sticks are definitely worth trying.

I ordered a pizza delivered through door dash. This was my first time trying or even seeing a “Chicago style” pizza so I had no clue what to expect. My first thought on opening the box was “is this even mine?”. I had ordered a cheddar cheese chicago pizza. What I received looked more like a sausage pizza so I grabbed a fork to drag the large meaty looking bits off. I guess it was just a really chunky pizza sauce and seeing it on top of the cheese was a bit of a shock. The crust (outer edges) was rather hard and dry. Usually I eat all of a pizza, not discard the edges. The middle part had a good taste to it, but it really looked horrible. Though as this was delivered that might be the issue. Perhaps it got turned or shaken on the way to my house and most of the sauce ended up on one side of the pizza. Good flavor, but bad presentation… Probably looks much better for dine in.

I’m in love. The Italian Beef was excellent, great Chicago dog, the pizzas are wonderful and tons of specials daily.

The WORST service I ever experienced. My wife and I sat at the table on a Thursday evening waiting and waiting and waiting for someone to come and wait on us. We sat there for 15-20 minutes and NO ONE ask us if we were ready to order or even acknowledge our presence. I ask for the “manager” just to make her aware we were leaving.

My husband & I met our kids here for our usual Wednesday dinner. We meet every Wednesday & someone different chooses where to eat each week. Our son chose and it did not disappoint! There was 9 of us and there was plenty of seating. Our waitress had a smile on her face, spite there was so many of us. She was an excellent waitress and never left us without anything we needed. The food was good, I just personally wished the pizza crust was thicker, but it was still really good. Everyone was overall very happy & we even had a couple of beers. The only downfall was when they got really busy, it got loud, but that’s to be expected when people are happy and having a good time. If you like it quieter just show up a bit earlier. We will definitely be back! Of course we tipped our waitress well, so she will continue to be awesome! I really wished I got her name to give her the recognition she deserves. I will be more careful about this is the future. Happy & good employees are such a rare occurrence & a blessing now a days, so we should all show them our appreciation & point them out to their employers. She is a total asset to their company & her customer service was on point!

I had higher expectations of this place but it was a bit disappointed. Honestly the pizza tasted like a Walmart prepackaged pizza -gluten free I ordered – and the salad was very basic, the chicken wings were ok. Customer service was good, waitress was nice and all but maybe what I ordered wasn’t their specialty. I’ll give it another try with some other items from their menu

Ordered the Chicago style hot dog. When they brought the food out I noticed the hotdog had a char mark on it. I asked how did you cook it and they said they put it in the oven.

We tried pepperoni, cheese, and Dirty Bird pizza. I personally thought the pepperoni was best (and I don’t even like pepperoni usually), followed by cheese, and the Dirty Bird. Dirty Bird was a bit bland for my taste, but I should note that it may have been totally different flavor if we had not asked to hold the onions. Our waitress was great today. There was an error on our kids order of half cheese half pepperoni. Rather than the kids having to wait for a whole new pizza, she left the cheese half with them to eat while the the pepperoni half was being made. Great solution! Very thoughtful from another parent. I had a $2 Bloody Mary special. They can make it a good spicy one if you want a good burn. Can’t miss the bathroom location in the back. Check out the bathroom mirror. The ranch dressing with the cheese sticks was pretty good. Lots of TV’s with sports going, and activity pages for the kids.

I love the food here but the service is absolute trash, it feels like a clique almost. megan is the only bartender that’s ever given me good service, every other one has tabbed me out and saw how much I tipped and gave me more in my mimosa bucket once they saw the tip. im honestly surprised how they even have workers here based off of how they treat people.

This place was DELICIOUS, but a member of our party got up and refilled our drinks for us without our waitress noticing. We were the only significant table in the restaurant at the time, so there was no chance that the staff’s attention was divided between too many tables.
