Father & Son Pizzeria

I’ve been eating this amazing pizza for over 30 years. Since I was a baby. I have the best family memories of this pizza coming to my grandmas house for Sunday dinner and getting to pay the delivery driver as a child and eat this heaven. Best pizza ever. Now I take my own child here. Worth every penny. I also love their gluten free pizza only thing Ive found that’s gluten free and tastes good at the same time. Seriously. The atmosphere is clean and they always immediately help you when you walk in, even if you have to wait it’s super fast.

I came here because I have never had Chicago style deep dish pizza and I wanted to give it a try. The staff inside were friendly and helpful. I ordered their smallest Chicago style deep dish and I wasn't able to finish half of it. I ordered pepperoni and mushroom, I probably should not have gotten the mushroom. Mushroom might have been from a can I should have asked, but apparently you don't want wet things added to a deep dish pizza, but I don't think it adversely affected it. There's a lot going on in a deep dish pizza. It takes 45 minutes to bake. Off hand it looks like there was a bottom layer of pepperoni and maybe mushrooms, a whole bunch of cheese, and a layer of sauce on the top. The crust is the standard pizza crust. Some people don't like Chicago style pizza, strictly a preference for some, but if you've never had one, this is your chance. If you've never had Chicago style pizza, just try it. I really enjoyed mine, and they seem to do it pretty well. I'm traveling without my family, I saw was not worried about gluten free, but they do have a gluten-free crust. The gluten-free crust does contain cheese. Many celiacs cannot have dairy so that would not be possible for you. I don't think I'll try it again, but knowing what I know now if I still hadn't tried one, I would still give it a go. And especially if you are in the area here, this is much closer than Chicago. I knew I could never finish that pizza so I didn't try any of their other items. Their salads look really good and they have some kind of special chicken that I simply didn't have enough stomach space to try.
