1. Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria

You’ll find Lou Malnati’s on South Roselle Road serving up their world-famous deep-dish and thin-crust pizzas. Each one comes in four different sizes, so you can get one that serves just you or one that’s large enough for everyone. The Malnati Chicago Classic is a must. It comes with Lou’s lean sausage, extra cheese, and vine-ripened tomato sauce on the Buttercrust. The Lou is also a good choice. This one has spinach mix, mushrooms, sliced tomatoes, and a blend of mozzarella, Romano, and cheddar cheese on the garlic Buttercrust.

2. Giordano’s

Make sure to try Giordano’s for the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. This place uses an Old-World technique to handcraft their pizzas. The stuffed deep-dish starts with a flaky crust that you can fill with your favorite toppings. If you don’t want all the crust, Giordano’s also has thin crust and extra-thin crust. The chicken pesto extra thin is always delicious. It has chicken, pesto, and bruschetta tomatoes, or you can try the super veggie thin crust, which is perfect when you want to make sure you get your veggies. It comes with mushrooms, green peppers, onions, broccoli, spinach, and black olives.

3. Joe’s Pizza

You can’t go wrong at Joe’s Pizza. The authentic Italian pies always come out perfect, and Dino, the chef, always takes pride in what he does. Joe’s offers each pizza in five different sizes, so you can get plenty no matter how many people you need to feed. You can also choose from thin or extra-thin crust, Sicilian style thick crust, pan pizza, and Chicago deep dish. The Original Stuffed Joe is a must if you’ve never had it. It has tons of mozzarella cheese stuffed between two pizza crusts and topped with tomato sauce and your favorite toppings.

4. Napoli Per Tutti

Napoli Per Tutti cooks its pizza in a wood-burning oven for that authentic wood-fired taste. The Neapolitan style pizza is always made with ingredients imported from Italy. It has the most wonderful chewy crust, which comes topped with fresh sauce made with San Marzano tomatoes. The Diavola pizza is out of this world. It has San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte, soppressata, basil, olive oil, and picante. You can also get the Funghi e Salsiccia with tomatoes, fior di latte, basil, mushrooms, sausage, pecorino, and olive oil.

If you prefer white pizza, Napoli Per Tutti has the Prosciutto e Rucola. This one comes with smoked mozzarella, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto crudo, arugula, parmigiano Reggiano, and olive oil.
