What a gem! As a gluten free individual, it has been so many years since I've been able to have a true Chicago style pizza. Visiting Chicago and being able to find a pizza joint that offers a gluten free option (that isn't thin crust) made my year! Just because we are gluten free does not mean we don't want to enjoy the glorious food different destinations have to offer. Thank you Chicago's Pizza! I only wish I lived closer and could visit more often!

Fantastic food and service! We ordered through door dash, everything was great. The bad apple burger is fantastic, I had it on gluten free bun which was great, it was holding well and not crumbly. The fries were also fantastic, which is rare because fries don’t travel very well, I am sure they are even more amazing when eaten at the restaurant. We also had the fried cheese curds and the chocolate mousse, both of them were perfectly executed. I requested my gluten free burger to be marked on the notes and someone from staff called me on the phone to make sure that they understood my request correctly, I am grateful for the sensitivity. Hats off to the chefs back in the kitchen and thanks! Hopefully we can go and dine in too.

Fantastic traditional Italian fare in a cozy storefront that feels immediately inviting. Great cocktails, good wine list and decent beer selection. Really appreciated all of the gluten free options, both in appetizers and for entree substitutions. Most pasta can be subbed for GF which is rare. Had the seafood special pasta which was amazing. Awesome options for every course! Will definitely be back, highly recommended for a nice night out in Ravenswood!

The 3 b chicken or burger is AMAZING. Service seems a bit unorganized but the ridiculous FAT Bloody Mary really made up for it. I love that they have gluten free buns. I would love to try their house made chips but they do not have a designated fryer for the celiacs crowd,

The chilaquiles and gluten free crepes are amazing, the kids meals have a ton of food, and the servers are super sweet. Way less busy on Saturdays than Sundays. It’s our new regular place!
