Dimo's Pizza
8.2
Dimo’s Pizza in Wrigleyville runs late with creative slices like mac and cheese, chicken and waffles, and vegan specials designed for post-game and post-bar crowds. It’s a standing-room-focused slice shop where the draw is bold toppings and grab-and-go convenience more than a lingering sit-down experience.

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; expect heavy congestion and limited availability on game and concert nights near Wrigley Field — rideshare is usually easier late-night.
Dress code: Very casual — jerseys, hoodies, and post-game attire are common.
Noise level: Loud during bar let-outs and post-game crowds; conversation is limited and mostly standing-room.
Weekend wait: Short counter line with 5–15 minutes typical after games; lines can spike but move quickly since it’s by-the-slice.
Weekday lunch: Usually no wait when daytime hours are offered; more commonly operates as an evening/late-night stop.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — multiple rotating veggie slices and cheese options.
Vegan options: Yes — rotating vegan specials and occasional dedicated vegan slices, but availability varies by night.
Gluten-free options: Limited — no reliable gluten-free crust; not recommended for strict gluten-free diners.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for casual, late-night stops than a first date — it’s standing-room, loud, and geared toward post-bar slices rather than conversation.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes — there are no reservations and only limited counter seating; expect to stand or take slices to-go during busy hours.
Is it kid-friendly? Earlier evenings can work for a quick slice, but late-night crowds are adult-oriented and not ideal for young kids.
Best For
Better for: Creative, novelty late-night slices near Wrigley with fast grab-and-go service after games and bar crawls.
Skip if: You want a sit-down pizzeria, quieter atmosphere, traditional minimalist slices, or dependable gluten-free options.
