A restaurant that comes recommended and has great reviews for a reason. From start to finish an absolute master class in operations. We came in with a big group in which I’m always nervous about but the staff was immediately accommodating and worked as a team to help us out. Our server was phenomenal and recommended the favorites. I had high expectations and they were absolutely met, the Mediterranean bread was top tier as was the pot pie. Such an awesome place with a good history topped off with excellent people and amazing food!

I’ve tried various pizza for a long time… but this place is absolutely unprecedented in my experience. Let’s talk about the appetizer first. You seriously consider to order it because the pot pie takes a while to make it (30~40 minutes in our case). We ordered Mediterranean bread and it has so much good flavors - starts with the plush of the dough, with good touch of garlic, and continues to fresh parsley and oregano. It is a simple bread but it has all good taste inside. It is large (we are party of 3 men but not able to finish it all) so keep in mind of that - to go box is available and the bread still tasted good on the next day. Now for the pot pie - per person you should consider ordering half pound because it was enough for us (again, we are men with age of 20s). We ordered three combinations: sausage with mushroom, sausage without mushroom, and no sausage but with mushroom. The sausage has really strong fennel seed taste with rich juice from the meat which completes the taste, but you exclude if you don’t prefer those. For the mushroom - I think this should be included. This mushroom carries the part of the essence inside the sauce, and it tastes really good as having a bi

This place was recommended to us by a local, and we’re incredibly grateful for that recommendation. I’ve had plenty of deep dish pizza before, but nothing quite like this. It was absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend giving it a try. Come hungry, and don’t skip the salads, they’re freshly prepared by dedicated salad chefs and are just as impressive as the pizza. There’s no outdoor seating, but the indoor atmosphere feels authentic and adds to the overall experience. The staff was attentive, our order was handled perfectly, and we had a fantastic meal from start to finish.

A classic Chicago pizza spot with a cozy & old-school cabin feel. We visited on a weekday and still had about a 30-minute wait. The Mediterranean bread was a flavorful start, and the house salad was surprisingly good with its house dressing. The famous pizza pot pie was the clear highlight, with a rich and cheesy texture and an upside down bake. A very hearty & quintessential experience for the Chicago pizza scene.

The wait was long, but trust me, the food was so worth it. Best Greek salad I've ever had, and the Mediterranean bread was love at first bite. I went in looking to try the pizza pot pie, but I'm leaving obsessed with the bread and salad. Shoutout to Juan for keeping it classy despite a rude guest, and Amber, our server, was absolute perfection - warm, friendly, and attentive. If you're looking for a great dining experience, look no further.
