| - Kind of weird to say I DIDN'T really wanna like the pizza here, but I actually did (as did my family).
I guess this place isn't actually "new," but used to be located someplace else and moved into this space. My parents live pretty close by so we decided to give it a shot (when this location was a teriyaki restaurant we ordered from here quite often). Even though there's a few pizza places close by (that aren't necessarily great, but reasonably priced) we wanted to see if Little Chicago should be added to the rotation.
It's a little pricier compared to Rome's, which is right around the corner (and not bad), but I think the pizza here is better. We got two 14'' pizzas (one cheese and one half mushroom/half sausage). I'm not well-versed in Chicago-style pizza, but my understanding is that it's usually deep-dish. Well, Little Chicago does thin slice, and the the slices are cut into squares, which I kind of like.
I can't really put my finger on WHY I think there pizza is a slight notch above other pizza places in the area, but it just is. The cheese and toppings tasted fresh (I like that the mushrooms were good sized chunks and not just little shriveled up pieces) and the cheese to sauce ratio was good.
We got take out and it was pretty quick (about 15 min). The place itself is kind of weird, but seems nice.
