Operating for decades, this beloved neighborhood classic offers a distinctive local dining tradition.
Expert notes
- People go there for the "upside-down" Pizza Pot Pie. Grinder subs and salads are also available. The place serves Tortoni dessert; if that's not your thing, visit nearby Vanille Patisserie for a decadent fix. Reservations: https://chicagopizzaandovengrinder.com/
