Tony's Little Italy Pizza

First time trying Chicago-style deep dish, finding out I’m not a deep dish guy. Will come back for a regular thin crust pizza however. This bitch is hefty, cheese is overwhelming. I’m a big fan of the sauce, wish the meat inside was better distributed. Giant grease pit of a pie. Cheesy garlic bread is an 8 but that’s bc I’m a fat fucking American who loves garlic and bread. Cannolis are a 6.5. They’ve got a license plate on the wall that says “Al Capone,” 10 on the decor for that.

Chicago is one of my favorites places to visit so I’ve been there many times and have tried at least 10 of the most famous pizza shops there and this place still blows any Chicago place out of the water!

Best Pizza I have had in a long time. The crust stays crisp under all that. Sauce is the best.

We got the stuffed deep dish with pepperoni and sausage and it was really good. Super thick, crunchy bottom, and one of the best slices I have had. I wish there was more pepperoni but still really good.

Best deep dish pizza outside of Chicago. Never a disappointment.

I just don’t like deep dish.

One bite everyone knows the rules. The crust was cooked perfectly. The cheese is really good. Probably the best pizza in this area.

Disclaimer... not my pic but the one I took didn’t come out so ill be that guy. Been coming here for years now... I’ve always been a deep dish fan but nowhere around can make something that isn’t 95% dough. This pizza is more like a cinder block of flavor. Good tangy sauce, the cheese quality is top notch and there’s plenty of it. The dough has a good crunch on the outside, like a legit pie crust. Get past past the Crust and there’s a nice soft dough as well. I highly recommend the pepperoni and sausage. Just a heads up, if you get a large for yourself or two people be prepared to have a few meals. It’s ALOT of food.

One bite. Everybody knows the rules. Crust is great, perfect amount of sauce, a little cheesy for my liking, but at least the cheese is really good. One of my favorite pizza places in the area.

One bite. Everybody knows the rules. Decent thin crust pizza. It’s more like a standard hand-tossed pizza than a true crispy crust variant. I believe the best part of this pie is the sauce. Good amount of tang and saltiness ratio. Negatives are that there’s way too much cheese. Even though it’s got nice flavor, there’s definitely enough cheese to fill another pizza entirely. Crust is nothing special. Quite bland actually. Also, the flop-factor is pretty high as well. Overall, despite the negatives, it’s a good standard pizza with a lot of flavor. Apparently their deep-dish pies are all the hype. Maybe I’ll try one next time.

No char, too cheesy needs more crust

Good pizza

-Sause was tangy and delicious -Cheese was ooey gooey with every bite and slice you pull off the pie -Buttery crust with flavor. It was even better an hour after it cooled down. -One of the best Chicago pies to eat that isn't in Chicago.

I know rookie score, but it is what it is. Best Chicago I’ve had on west coast so far. One of the pizza places you must go to in oc.

Super messy and super greasy but was pretty good. I guess I’m not a deep dish guy

Deep dish style.. comes with an ungodly amount of grease. The sauce and cheese ran off the slices the second you tried to scoop it off the pan. Flavor was still really good, but just a giant mess to try and eat.

Very messy but once you get it on your plate the pizza tastes great. Sauce was tangy and the crust was crisp with a light and airy chew. For sure a sex slice.

It is a deep dish place so we had to try it. I definitely not a deep dish guy and knew that going in. It is incredibly greasy, messy and sloppy. But when you get the food actually in your mouth it’s good. Good flavor, same tang in the sauce and the crust is good.

Had to go with sausage this time! Just like last time it’s incredible. Dad is in town (lived in Chicago) and says it’s the best Chicago pizza outside of Chicago. I liked pep a little Better! 9.0 that’s a review

I used to go to My Italians friends Grandmas house every Sunday for the Sunday meal. She used to make homemade pizza and it was delicious. This place is the closest I’ve ever had to that experience. The owner Tony is very friendly and we talked pizza for a few. Overall good experience and great pizza. This is the highest review I’ve ever given

First review and Tony's started off the first inning with a Walkoff Home Run! The Cheese played tug of war with me, the crust was flavorful, and the ingredients were fresh! Well worth the wait, first time trying Chicago style pizza and you bet your bottom dollar I'll be back.
