Think: friendly, neighborhood pizzeria.
Luigi's starts with 3.5 to 4.5 stars for doing a good job as a reasonable, sit-down pizza place with very respectable pizzas.
So in a city with an abundance of pizza offerings, is there a place for another pizza joint?
For Luigis's the answer is Yes. Here's why:
-Wide selection of different, yet inspired, pizza offerings - in particular, about half the pizza menu is white sauce pizzas. Consider the Bada Bing, which includes grilled asparagus, caramelized onions, bacon (plus other toppings) on a white sauce.
-Sit-down dining; a great option for families or small groups that want something nicer than dining but not over-the-top
-Thin crust (corn-meal crusted) is an excellent option
-Location: it's nice having an option on the near West side that's not HillDale or University Ave. Sequoya Commons also hosts the public library and The Chocolate Shoppe which makes for a great line-up for some quality family time.
It's 4.5 but I'm rounding up since service is friendly and earnest.
