I recently moved to the area and so far I have not been impressed. The only really good pizza I've had is Home Run Inn. Unos, Lou Malnati's and Aurelio's were horrible. Giordano's is alright. Are there any good mom and pop joints? Or is Chicago Pizza just hype?

I generally prefer deep dish. Giordanos is actually pretty good. It is just that, so far, I have had far better Chicago style pizza outside of Chicago.

Some of these mom and pop places are not that good too greasy and most of the pizza is cheaply made. Giordanos and Edwardo's is probably by far the best two places I've eaten at and Home Run Inn, Connies, Leona's, and UNO are 4 good ones, but stay away from some of these mom and pop places because I've had problems with how clean they are. I don't know where you came from, but the places I mentioned are the highest rated in Zagat's restaurant guide as the best places in the city to get good pizza. Leona's has been owned by the same family for more than 50 years.

Your best bet is to go to GINO'S on Superior, just off North Michigan Avenue.It's so much better than UNO's.I used to go there all the time. There's a couple of Gino's but this one is the best. There's also PAT'S PIZZA, It used to be on Sheffield Avenue by Wrigley Field, but it has moved(check the Internet)I went there all the time when I was a kid.So you can have thick and thin.

abode Run hotel (you additionally can locate the pizzas at your food market interior the frozen nutrition section) - they have their eating place in Wrigleyville, too. and that i additionally advise - Renaldi's Pizza Pub (2827 N. Broadway, - New city, Chicago) The pizza is to die for! I assure you will adore their pizza - They make their pizzas from scratch.

Try Palermo's on 95th street in Oak Lawn. Thin crust, if you're not into the deep dish thing. If you're looking for East Coast pizza a la Lombardi's (NYC), forget about it.
