(Not) Chicago (style) Pizza and Oven Grinder

by Chi106 , Mar 07 '06
Pros: Intimate and friendly. Unique pizza variation.
Cons: Unremarkable flavor and quality.
I have spent most of my life in Chicago and somehow managed to miss this 30 year old institution. Unfortunately it is likely I will not be back for another 30 years. It's not that the pizza is bad it's just that it is so uneventful. Let's start with ...

Worth The Wait!

by leadia2 , Jan 27 '00
Pros: Offbeat charm and great food
Cons: The wait can be excruciating
Small and dark, the Chicago Pizza & Oven Grinder Company is nonetheless one of the best places to eat in the Chicago....IF you can stand the wait. This place seems to be crowded at every hour of the day, but even more so during the evening and on...

This is pizza???

by fredil , Apr 14 '00
Pros: The beer's cold
Cons: I have to drink lots of it to get through the ordeal
Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder once again proves that any restaurant can succeed as long they serve enormous, oversized portions at a reasonable price. No matter that the food is suspect....as long as you have leftovers for a couple of days. However, is...

If I had their recipe, I'd be a gazillionaire.

by emmad325 , Nov 15 '02
Pros: Affordable, excellent quality, deliciously addictive
Cons: Extreme waits, cash only
I shouldn't even be telling anyone else to go to the Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder company, because the last thing the place needs is more business, and the last thing I need is another hour tacked on to my wait.

But you've gotta go. This...

Unique pizza in the land of....

by jbz1 , Aug 22 '01
Pros: Truly unique "pizza"
Cons: No credit cards -- just cash
Unique pizza in the land of....Chicago style pizza.

My main reason for writing this review is to rebut fredil's entirely negative review.

I, for one, enjoyed reading the history of the place while awaiting the "pizza". This is...

Try this place!

by hjdoug , Mar 03 '02
Pros: food quality and service excellent!
Cons: crowded
Unique pot pie pizzas served individually. Loaded with fresh ingredients and cheese. Salads are out of this world. Bread is very thin with an excellent blend of spices. You will not be able to stop eating it. You can make a meal out of salad and bread...

Its worth the money!!!

by chicagoboy0078 , Sep 10 '06
Pros: great food, makes you think your in an old bar
Cons: very cramped, long wait
So my parents and I were walking down Michigan ave, and an idea popped into my head "let's check out oven grinders!" So we walk over and we see a huge cluster and my dad says, "Oh man, that's the line." So I go in and ask the guy inside how long the wait ...

Pros: fantastic pizza
