Description: This is one of the best places in Chicago for pizza. There are several locations around the city. The one we went to is just a block away from the shops on Michigan Avenue. It is a great place to get some great tasting pizza before and/or after a day of shopping.
The wait for a table can often be at least 30 minutes. Best thing is, though, that you order your pizza when you put your name on the list for being seated. This way the pizza is ready not too long after you are seated even on the busiest of days.
The pizza tastes great and one slice is filling enough for most, but we always get more than we will eat so we can take it home and eat as leftovers. The service is overall good, but we did have an annoying issue related to my brother being in a wheelchair.
When my mom put our family on the list to be seated she made sure they knew we had someone with a wheelchair in our group. She was seated before my dad, my brother, and I arrived. When we got there and wheeled my brother to the end of the booth the manager came over and said we could not sit there and that we had not told them we had a wheelchair in our party. Turns out the lady putting people on the list is from a foreign country and probably did not understand when my mom said we had a person in a wheelchair. Well, they wanted to move us to a table back in the corner because apparently my brother was a hazard in case of a fire. Personally I thought that was bullshit since at least three people walking side by side could walk past the booth with my brother there. It was kind of like the person in a wheelchair needs to be put in the back of the room, so it is hardest for them to get out in case of an emergency and not really making it an easier (as it was already very easy) for others to get out. In the end they asked if my brother could transfer out, which we ended up doing, and they took the chair and put it out of the way in the wheelchair lift to the upper seating area of all places. Situation was handled, but not in a very friendly way by the manager, however the waiter for our table was very friendly through it making sure another table was being prepared in an appropriate place if the manager made us move.
