A neighborhood Italian dining room anchored by thin, deep dish, and stuffed pizza options.
Notable Picks
8.3
A long-running neighborhood Italian restaurant where the pizza program is the headline—thin crust for the classic table order, and stuffed when you want the full Chicago-style commitment. It’s built for families and groups, with a broad menu that supports the pizza rather than distracting from it.
Must-Try Dishes:
Veggie Thin Crust Pizza, Stuffed Pizza, Xlarge Sausage Pizza
What Makes it Special: A neighborhood Italian dining room anchored by thin, deep dish, and stuffed pizza options.
8
A tacos-and-drinks stop that works best as a late-night hang—weekends run to 1am with a menu that leans into birria and pastor. Treat it like a two-item mission (one birria, one pastor) plus a drink so the table doesn’t sprawl.
Must-Try Dishes:
Birria tacos, Al pastor tacos, Quesabirria
What Makes it Special: Weekend 1am hours paired with birria-and-pastor crowd favorites.
