Very good thin crust pizza, in fact the best we've found in the area. Flavorful sauce, lots of toppings, and they deliver to Park Ridge.

Review from Kevin H.
I was in a bar across the side street from this place last night and a couple came in with one of these pies. The Phil Spector "wall of smells" filled the air like no beach boy album ever did. The visual matched the aroma. They offered me a slice but I had just eaten a huge dinner and respectfully declined. However I took note and made plans to check it out.
Low and behold I found myself at this gin mill again tonight having skipped dinner only partaking in several Stellas as appetizers. I stumbled in @ around 10:30, they close at 11. Ordered a small sausage, paid, set my internal timer and was off to have one more beer.
Upon my return the pie was just being cut, they walked it out to me, perfect timing. In a word, a great pie. Crust was thin and crisp, sauce was ample, tasty morsels of flavorful sausage with plenty of cheese. Pictures taken of this disc not one minute removed from the oven. I dined al fresco, if having the sunroof open counts. -

i never have to pay for pizza here (duh the pops always foots the tab when im near his 'hood)...so maybe thats what makes it taste so good

This place is just great. I always get 18 inch pizza with 2-3 toppings and tye give you a small cheese pizza for free. This comes to about 22 bucks but the taste of it is something else. I would say my favorite pizza place so far

Love the place. Yummy food, very friendly staff, and super cheap prices. My husband is a big fan of the eggplant parmesan sub, served with french fries that are so good that they're worth mentioning (they make 'em super crispy here). I get a panzarotti with spinach, which is kinda like a calzone with attitude. They describe it as a pizza folded in half, with cheese and sauce and whatever topping you want inside, either baked or fried (I get it baked).
They have a cooler filled with RC products, both cans and 1-liter bottles. The 1-liter bottles are less than 2 bucks and are the perfect size to share between 2 people, which is another way to save a little cash. -

I'm not the largest fan of thin crust pizza but we ordered it with a couple coupons and both times came back high quality pizza. We stayed simple and got both cheese and spinach and sausage.
Though the cheese and spinach had a great flavor and was great and plentiful in ingredients I fell in love with the sausage pizza. I tend to think I'm the reincarnation of a T-Rex sometimes.
It's the type of pizza that because it's thinner you don't feel so bad eating a bunch of pieces but then even when you want to stop you can't because it's so addicting. They deliver and do carry out orders!Listed in: O hai, Pizza!

Very good food! I've ordered different things from the menu before and each time, the food was really good! After ordering two days in a row, I had to post a review. Today's meal (calamari and cannoli) arrived hot, earlier than expected, and my goodness, the cannoli is excellent!
I would right more but I'm stuffing my face at the moment.
I've found a new lovah! (sorry, hubby) -

I had carry-out Pizza. I ordered a sausage thin crust.
The pizza had a good flavor. The crust was very thin, a good thing.
I had a couple of problems with the pizza.
One, there was some burnt leftovers on the bottom of some of the pizza. Someone didn't clean the oven.
Two, there was a lot of grease on the top of the pizza. A good Chicago thin crust pizza is not covered in grease.
I don't think I would try it again, since there are so many very good pizza places around Chicago. -

I probably order Al's Pizza once a month and every single time, it is perfect. I recently moved to chicago and tried various local pizza parlors and i have to say, Al's Pizza is top 3 in my list. Fast delivery, pizza is hot and toppings are delicious. I wish we had pizza like this in California. Thanks AL!

I'm surprised that reviews for Al's are all over the board. In my opinion, Al's is one of the best pizza places in Chicago. My family enjoys an Al's pizza at least once a month and have been for many years. I like the super-thin crust. I think the sauce and cheese are excellent. I've never found the pizza greasy as some reviews claim. I usually get a Canadian bacon and pineapple pizza - it is always good. Last night I used a coupon where we purchased an 18-inch pizza and received a 12-inch cheese pizza for free. The duel pizzas worked out great because my wife and I enjoy toppings while the kids just like cheese. I'll be having left-overs for dinner tonight. Yum.

We ordered delivery twice. Most recently got the Western BBQ pizza. My husband loves Moretti's version but they are just so expensive! So we did Al's. Very good variety on the menu and we were very pleased. I will definitely order from them again. I did take away one star because pizza was tiny bit on the greasy side, but still very good.

Alrighty I just had this place w/my bf tonight. We got a large pizza half of it with sausage, peppers, onions and mushrooms and the other pepperoni peppers and onions. Well it was okay, there was too many of the peppers and onions and it ruins the flavor of the pizza. Also it was very very greasy and I would like more sauce on it. It was okay though I liked the crust, though I am partial to a thicker crust, hello Giordanos! Anyways and the fries would have been good had they been fresh. We also got the breaded steak sandwich or wahtever it was okay too. I don't know how much it cost though, the bf paid for it. EHHH better pizza choices in the Chi area.
