Paul's Pizza & Hot Dogs

Super cheesy, not much sauce. A pretty basic slice

Drunk slice all day long. Surprisingly crispy under but floppy as shit. Heavy cheese but still not bad pizza. If I was in a hurry and needed a bite I’d recommend but won’t knock your socks off.

Thicker slice, tad greasy but good

Perfect temp, slight overload on the grease, big man still likes it. 7.2.

Alright Frankie, this one is a solid pizza but it doesn’t stand out to me this is a good football pizza not much else

Very doughy pizza. Cheese has some slippage when you break a piece off. The crust is very crispy but doesn’t do it for me. The cheese is good. Good sausage. Overall, it’s a decent pie but the crust and less dough could have put it over 7 if they were better.

This place is tucked away in the strip mall that includes Mariano's. The inside is surprisingly more spacious than I anticipated and is a nice lunch spot for sure. The menu has your normal Chicago staples like Italian Beef, Vienna hot dogs, and of course slices of pizza. I got one pepperoni and one sausage slice ($3.50 a piece and $7 credit card minimum, I had no cash). The slices were out in about 5 minutes. The place was not busy, but steady for the lunch crowd. The slices are pretty large and are dense even though they are thin crust. I probably could've got away with eating just one and been satisfied. The crust is firm and crispy; lots of cheese, and average amount of sausage. The sauce was not the most flavorful, but I find that's usually result of getting slices rather than a fresh pizza. Overall, it's a really good value and tasted fresh; not dried out. I'll be back for a quick lunch.
