Chicago Style Pizza Shack

We were a group of 12 who travelled from Toronto. Unfortunately they don’t take reservations so we had to wait 30-40 minutes to be seated. Fortunately, they have a long cushioned bench at the front for guests to sit and wait, with additional wooden benches outdoors to prevent overcrowding. Our waitress was welcoming, friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is small, cozy and dimly lit with A/C for a hot day. They have single washrooms per gender located downstairs, so us girls had to wait and take turns, but they were well kept and clean. There’s no parking lot, but there’s free 1 hour street-side parking adjacent to the restaurant at designated hours. Our group came here to try their Chicago style pizza. We ordered their Large Stuffed “Chicago Special” Pizza and Small Stuffed Pizza with Customized Toppings to share. My boyfriend and I were a bit disappointed with the Chicago style pizza as we thought it was overly saucy; the toppings were not distributed evenly; and crust was really basic. The ingredients however were fresh and Italian sausage was flavourful - one slice of pizza is enough to make an individual full. Their Mediterranean Salad was good but they forgot to add croutons… Their Appy Platter was also good and was piping hot - I liked their Battered Mushrooms better than their Breaded Cheese Ravioli. Their desserts were just okay as well, nothing special again. Their garlic bread was more on the plain side. Overall, a nice place to dine for dates or as a small family. Their menu is on the pricier side and I can’t say I recommend their pizza but I’d like to give their pastas try if we ever decide to dine here again.

Fantastic stuffed deep dish pizza!! Loved this quaint place. Parking can be found on the cross street. Great service, even with a packed house (tables are relatively close together so don't expect lots of elbow room). Even the toilets were super clean! We had garden salad, glass of wine and a "small" stuffed pizza (mushroom + pepperoni; just perfect). Definitely a keeper.

Absolutely amazing authentic cuisine. The pizza is so good had the stuffed pizza "No Self Respect" and was in heaven. Also had deep fried ravioli and garlic bread with cheese. Wife also had their home made cheesecake but no pics cause she divoured it lol. No words can justify it you have to try it for yourself. The staff was pleasant and the atmosphere was comfortable and it's a cute little gem 💎 . A must try 110%.

THESE BAD BOYS ARE HUGE!!! The pizza tastes good, it’s very thick and generous with toppings. We went there early when they just opened, so I’m not sure if it’s because of that or it’s usually so slow. It took almost took an hour to get the pizza. But because the staff already told us that’s the case, we went and cam back after an hour. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
