  • Having driven by this place many times in the last couple of weeks and seeing the Edison Lights I thought it might be worth a try. I should also add I'm not a sucker for ambiance. I've had many a good meal in places where you see the occasional roach on the table or would rather use a portapotty than their washroom. It was around 9PM on a Saturday night so we were seated right away. Our waiter promptly took our drink order. Someone told me they heard the wings were good so we ordered some. We also ordered a Pepperoni, Mushroom and Kalamata Olive pizza. We overheard one of the other waiters tell his table that this place has no freezers, microwaves or fryers. They need a fryer. The wings while plump and juicy were like they had been cooked in a microwave. The skin was rubbery and none of the fat was rendered. When the pizza came we had our wing plates ready to be taken away. Not this time. The waiter had other things on his mind. And he didn't notice that more than half the wings were still untouched. OK, the pizza. It's not Grimaldi's, Rosati's or even Casanova Brothers. Grimaldi's has the natural casing pepperoni that crisps, cups and is really greasy. That's a good thing by the way. It also has fresh Mozzarella and the sauce is not really sauce but fresh tomato crushed on top of the cheese. I think Grimaldi's is far better. Rosati's is better also but in a different way. The pizza was better than Domino's, Little Caesar or Papa John's. The crust was thin and crispy with a nice crust. The sauce was ok as well as the toppings but, the toppings were sparse. All except the cheese. Actually too much cheese is not a good thing in my eyes. The amount of cheese was a bit much. Not way to much. Amalfi has way too much cheese. This place is better than Amalfi. Did I say that after we had eaten half our pizza, had our drinks refilled twice, the dirty plates from the wings were still there. We had them stacked so they would be easy to take. Four other workers had walked by our table and not a single one noticed. We had two pieces of pizza left and the waiter asked if we wanted them boxed up. He also asked if we wanted the wings boxed and we told him that they weren't that good. He mentioned that the table behind us had the same comment. Still didn't take the plates. The manager came over and said that he checked our wings and we were right. They should have been cooked longer. He also took them off the check. We also had a conversation about the lighting. While the Edison Lights are nice all the spot lights make it brighter that a night game at Wrigley Field. He said they were working on that. There is a pizza close buy that's just as good. The Basha's next door. They have a brick oven. They use the same cheese and pepperoni. It's also only $10 bucks for a large. Not twenty. I have had far worse and I have had much better. It's not bad but it's not somewhere I would go back to unless I didn't want to drive the extra few miles to Grimaldi's.
