Jimmy's Pizza Cafe

You have no idea how difficult it is to live within walking distance to this place and maintain a diet T___T As an East Coaster, I will always prefer this style of pizza, it's crusty with a generous gluten chew and a little give in the middle for folding in half -- they have lots of creative toppings and the Sicilian slices are incredible. And now they have really tasty round croissants, too. FML The staff is also always really bubbly and pleasant, despite the constant circus of middle school kids running around after baseball and soccer games like bats out of hell. Probably the most impressive thing for me is, no matter how busy it gets, you will always get your heated slices in-hand in just under 5 minutes. Howwww?

Honestly, this is some of the best pizza I've had in Chicago. Certainly the best NY-style. It's a little pricey, but worth it. They also have amazing gluten-free pizza! Very cozy atmosphere, as well.
