Stopped by for some Lasagane and a pizza. Wow! Still as good as ever. You better like mozzarella cheese as they use a ton. Delicious! And as always get there early or be willing to wait for a table.

I know most people are all about the pizza here, because it is fantastic, but I order from here on a regular basis for the lasagna, combo bread and battered mushrooms. I would advise pay the few bucks and ordering in. The restaurant is very small and I have waited an hour before just to pick up my order.

Wanted to try this spot (take-out) after all the fuss I had heard. Had been aired apparently on "You got to eat here". Kids had pizza - they thought it was decent but not what they had been hoping for. The pasta dishes were way too heavy on the cheese and nothing too exceptional underneath. While the value is good...

Best pizzas and best pasta like lasagna and ravioli. Always a line up on the weekend. Get there for an early dinner. Fantastic, highly recommended.

Excellent stuffed pizza, amazing rose pastas! Chicago Style has been around for years and it is always consistent, never, ever lets you down. The ambiance leaves a bit to be desired but the food and service makes up for it

We drove 1.25 hours just to get here. This isn't much after learning that some diners drive for 6! The pizza is CHICAGO STYLE, hence the name! If you are looking for authentic Italian cuisine, you are reading the wrong sign. If you are looking for Italian-American, you've come to the right place! The battered mushrooms are a great way...

After seeing it on You Gotta Eat Here and being in Hamilton on business I just had to try it. It was everything that the show showed it was. The best deep dish pizza ever.
