Review from Caity G.
1/6/2012
Was desperate for delivery pizza and have never gotten it since moving out here - partially because I would feel like a fatty ordering a whole pie for just me, and also because I had no idea what to expect. But this past week I was worn out from work just enough to go for delivery from an obscure, hole in the wall pizza place. This place won out because it is literally around the corner from our place and we were absolutely starving (hoping for fast delivery), plus it had good reviews.
Delivery was timely and it was the hot, greasy, cheesy pizza I craved. Not quite like home, but we will be ordering again. AND also trying this slice/soda deal for dine in... intriguing. -

The food here is genuinely awful.
We ordered a variety of things to try---Italian Beef, Italian Sub, Caesar Salad & Cheesy Bread.
I am an absolute beef connoisseur and try it basically everywhere I eat.
Boy was I disappointed with Paula and Monica's beef.
The Italian beef here was terrible. It was bland as can be was not remotely dipped. The worst part about it was that it was as dry as a desert and contained a whopping 2-3 giardiniera... It was the worst Italian Beef I have ever had.
The Italian Sub was standard, nothing special.
The Caesar salad was basically ALL yellow lettuce. It didn't seem remotely healthy. The best part of the bland salad was the croutons.
The Cheesy Bread was an added bonus as it came free with our purchases. Yet another tasteless piece of "food." The marinara sauce was good, but everything else about it was horrible.
I've had their pizza before which is aight, but the sauce is wack!
I won't give this place a second try because it was just that much of a letdown. -

Great Pizza. It folds and tastes as close to New York slices as I have had in Chicago. The cheese covers the slice perfectly and with enough cheese to make the slice a pizza instead of a bread stick with cheese on it. The salad is fresh, but they put anchovies on it. This was not for me and they should have asked if I wanted anchovies in the salad so I did not give five stars. To me, this is a service issue and they should know that anchovies are a special preference item. They could make a better Cesar salad that just lettuce and croutons. The pizza was ready on time and was perfectly made. Excellent customer service.

i got a Groupon deal to pick up a large pizza and salad from here and I'm so glad. I never noticed the place driving by and now I'm glad to be familiar with it. The pizza was great and at a good price. I love the large NY triangular cut. Do not park illegally outside thinking you will only be in there for five minutes. Those parking guys over there are swift. :(

on the inconceivable front, i came back after a previous fairly lackluster experience....however, my coming back was due to circumstances completely beyond my control (read: I was in the area around lunchtime, starving, mind, and was in serious need of a pizza fix, the only thing that would satisfy my high end appetite was just a smack you in the face flavor slice of pizza...if you understand that then you can totes relate...if you can't, it's a DNA thing i guess.
I should also mention a few yelps i happen to respect pizza-wise have sang P and M's praises so figured they deserved another shot..also, they both talk about the pizza slices (which I intended to get) and not the whole pizza and/or delivery....TRUST me there is a considerable difference!
The "slice" of sausage I ordered looked and tasted NOTHING like that of the 10" Sausage, Pepperoni, Onion and Green Pepper pie I chose for delivery, which rang in at an outrageous $22 (just read the earlier review to see what i'm talking about). In actuality this "slice" was divided into 3 good sized slices and i kid you not was at min a Small Sized Pizza.
This was exactly what I was looking for that late Spring day and i reiterate bared "Robert Downey Jr" resemblance, both in look and taste (that is to say it had "Less than Zero!" resemblance to my previous P and M pizza.
Now here's the goods...it was FIVE BUCKS...*with pop*. Something is wrong w. this picture...or right as it were.
Anyway, go to P and M's for the slice(S) but skip the delivery. You will not be disappointed, at both taste and price, which is ostensibly inversely proportionate at this pizza joint.Listed in: Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza…

now this is some quality pizza. Like, it was really damn good and I ended up snarfing about half the 14 inch pie down before I figured I should slowdown.
I was in the area running a bunch of errands. Paula&Monica's has been on my thin crust hit list for a while after being mentioned in chicago magazine last summer. So, when life gives you lemons, you're making lemonade.
I called ahead to get a ham, ground beef, and onion pie. I had to go thin crust as well since I find that its easy to goof it up if you don't know what you're doing. Well, they knew what they were doing. The crust was great and the toppings were all over the pie. It was nice to get some big slices of ham on there instead of the normal small chopped stuff. The onions were also pretty substantial as well. The real kicker though was the sauce. The sauce really made the pizza for me. It was slightly sweet and a whole lot of awesome.
While P&Ms wasn't the cheapest (about $22 for the pie), I am generally a believer that you get what you pay for. It was definitely worth paying a bit extra to get this. -

I was going to give them the benefits of the doubt and assume my gf and I got a few bad slices. I was also going to give them an extra star, because 3 slices and a soda for $5 isn't a bad deal.
However... I couldn't give this more than the minimum 1-star. Why? We were both pretty tipsy. She went to the corner to get more beer for home, and I went in to get the pizza. Now, in all my years of drinking and late night eating, I've NEVER come across pizza that didn't taste good drunk.
[Enter Paula and Monica's Pizzeria]
Please refrain from making anymore pies until you get a different sauce... preferably one that doesn't taste like rancid ketchup. I usually try to avoid making my reviews too harsh, but then again... when was the last time you saw a drunk person leave half his pizza uneaten because it tasted so terrible? -

The Pizza was very good, especially if you like greasy thin crust. The 14 inch large is very big and cut in 8 slices. I would definitely order this place again next time I get pizza delivered.

VERY good!
Not the fanciest pizza palace in town, but if you need a slice (or a whole pizza), Go There!
The "slices" are really the equivalent of 1/4 or 1/5 of a pizza and come with a free drink! They're also fresh from the oven - which beats slices at other places that have been sitting around in those creepy greasy heaters all afternoon. Which is why they made one Chicago list's top 25 pizzas! Not an easy feat in such a pizza town.
Also I've ordered the veggie pizza, which is delicious with huge chunks of vegetables and fresh spinach on top. Delic :) Garlic bread was great too. -

3.5 stars. We stumbled upon Paula and Monica's Pizzeria when we wanted delivery and needed a new place. They were reasonably priced and quick (emphasis on the quick).
Their execution on the food could use some improvement. We ordered the thin crust pepperoni and bacon pizza. It was good, but next time I would skip the bacon, or at the very least, tell them to make it crispy. (Yet, when heating it up in a toaster oven, it did crisp up.) I did like their pepperoni and thought they had a different sauce.
We also tried their Italian sandwich and I found it to be very tasty, however, they need to double check their ingredients. One of my tomatoes was clearly not ripe. However, they nailed the fresh bread and I would definitely get it again.
Strangely enough, the delivery guy called and demanded us to meet him downstairs (we do have a doorman) and was a bit rude. Between that and their minor snags, I knocked them down. I will try them again though! -

Deeeeeeeelicious!
Not sure I'd call it straight-up NY-style pizza, but the thin crust is crunchy, the cheese is tasty and salty, and the sausage and onions I ordered were killer. This was, honestly, some of the best thin crust pie I've had here.
Delivery was fast and the guy who took my order on the phone was super courteous. This pizza I will be ordering again for sure.
Paula and Monica, I'm glad I got your number(s)! -

I like my pizza thin-crusted, with sauce that could not be mistaken for tomato paste with sugar, and doused with a good mound of oozing cheese. Bonus points if there's some sort of mystery "italian seasoning" sprinkled on top.
Paula and Monica's delivered just that. It's just YUMMY. We don't live far from here (Wicker Park/Noble Square), and why we didn't discover this place before, I do not know. Probably because when we go to Grub Hub I automatically filter results by "Coupon available".
It's not super cheap, but somehow a lot of pizza joints nowadays have decided it's fine if they charge way, way too much. Probably because people like me still buy it - if it's GOOD, like Paula and Monica's! -
Review from Amanda Z.
7/7/2010
I liked it. I mean, I like pizza. All kinds. Be it Chicago, fatty-style, wood-fired (personal favorite alert), brick oven or hand-tossed, I'm likely to toss some red pepper flakes and some parmesan and gototowndotcom on it.
P&M probably most closely aligns with the New York style, given it's large slicing tendencies, throwing it back in the oven upon ordering and "Jumbo slice and a pop" deal. Although I don't know if they call it "pop" in New York. Me? I like to watch my girlish figure AND my wallet, so I appreciate that I can get a measly single slice (read: non-jumbo) for a similarly measly $2. Nice, right?
The pepperoni was yummy, the cheese-to-meat ratio was good, and the service was quick and friendly. While it might not be my favorite 'za in the world, I wouldn't be opposed to ordering delivery or popping in for a slice when the mood strikes me.Listed in: Chinanigans on Chicago Avenue, Places for 'Za

Ok, I usually hate these kind of reviews, but...
Tried to order delivery for the first time from here with a 20% off coupon. Apparently my coupon was the wrong COLOR and they would not accept it. They claimed that the coupon was expired but there was no expiration date written anywhere on the coupon.
I don't care what your pizza tastes like, if you have customer service policies that suck I will not give you my money.
Or, here's a suggestion - put an expiration date on your friggin' coupon. -

I need to add another star because I failed to see how excellent the customer service is here. After my initial 4 star review, George, the owner, asks me each and every time I come in if he remembered to thank me for my "kind words on Yelp". So adorable. And usually when I stop in I'm with the little boy I nanny for so the last time we were there George told me to go wait in my car out front and he would bring out my lunch to me so we wouldn't have to wait inside. HOW GREAT IS THAT? Dammit, now I'm craving pizza again....

Up there with Piece Brewery for best thin crust in the city....
If you are looking for solid delivery pizza (real pizza, not crappy squares), this is definitely a good bet. Great sauce, always brick-oven crispy but not stiff, and melty cheese!
I will have to agree with another review that they have some policy/coupon issues.... there are no expiration dates on them and there tend to be many excuses for why you can't use it - watch out for that sheisty-ness (even though they are pretty nice on the phone). However, even though it's not cheap delivery pizza, I find the quality is worth the price. They usually over-estimate the delivery time, so I find it a nice sort of surprise when it arrives early. -

Dear Paula and/or Monica:
Please stop lacing the pizza sauce with crack and shoving half-pizzas in my face trying to pass them off as "slices".
Thanks, Misi
Okay I am ADDICTED to Paula and Monica's pizza. Ever since Humboldt Pie closed I've been looking for a delicious thin crust replacement within a 2 mile radius of my house and Paula and Monica's won out. I'm the kind of person who is required to eat pizza at least once a week for survival, so knowing that I can pick up a slice on the way home from work as an alternative to slaving over my General Electric is a very comforting feeling and keeps my hard earned dollars pretty loyal to P&M. Oh and their chopped salad...nothing special about it, but it's so gooooood..... -

This pizzeria has been open for less than a year, but these ladies have their pie figured out! Paula and .... (I keep wanting to call this place Paula and Monicals - but it's a LOT better than Monicals, for those of you who have experienced that French dressing covered slop of pissa pi) ... Well, P&Ms is great. I've only had their delivery, but delivery is tough, right? It's never as good as if you go and pick it up. It can be cold, old, soggy or hard...nuh uh. Not here. Piping hot and delicious.
My favorite thing about this place is that everything costs the same. 14' thin or pan cheese pizza - $17. The same size pizza with sausage, Italian beef, hot peppers and garlic - $17. Easy peasy!
They go easy on the sauce, but I'm not complaining. Just an observation.
Yes, I like this not-Monicals pizza very much. -
Review from julie a.

This pizza has a great crust, and its more NYC style - thin and cut in a triangle. That yummy burnt edge - so good.
We ordered the 14 inch with tomato + garlic, and I felt like it wasn't cooked as long as I would like, but it was still good.
Only two drawbacks - no delivery on Sunday nights ( I called at 8:30 at they wouldn't deliver) and it is a little pricey. After tax + tip + delivery, it came to $25 or so. But honestly, its damn good pizza.
The first time I ordered, though, the pizza came within 40 minutes, which was awesome. I'm sure this will be a stand-by for me when I have a little more $$ in my pocket. -

FINALLY. A decent pizza in the land of no good pizza.
[I have been unsure for a while why Chicago even considers itself reputable for pizza (quoth Anthony Bourdain, "The generic 'deep dish' stuff? At worst, it's 'tomato/cheese pie'--or maybe 'egg-less tomato quiche'--or 'pizza for people who just aren't fat enough'".) It's not even just the stuffed/deep dish variety - all the thin-crust pizzas are basically dry saltine crackers layered with disproportionate amounts of rubbery cheese and cut into squares. Horrible. Even the South, hardly reputable for pizza, surpasses Chicago by a landslide.]
I have sworn by Whole Foods of all places as the only pizza in this city that I will go near, but now I can order from Paula and Monica's knowing that I will get a perfect triangle-sliced pie with a chewy, slightly raised crust speckled with corn meal with perfect proportions of cheese, sauce and toppings. I ate nearly half of a 14" pizza in a matter of minutes, that's how good it was. Is this kind of pie that hard to make in Chicago? I have tried many, many pizzas since moving here (and judged at Pizza Fest, too), and nearly all of them have failed to meet my [relatively low] expectations.
I think the majoritively 4 and 5 star reviews for this place say it all - Chicago needs a pizza makeover.Listed in: Favorite Places in Chicago

Review from Gary E.

4/14/2010
I was really excited to try this place out given all of the amazing reviews and the mention of "NY style". I'm thoroughly convinced that people in the Midwest consider any thin slice of pizza cut into a triangle to be NY style and all of you couldn't be any more wrong. NY style isn't just about size and shape - it's about the sauce, the cheese, the consistency, etc so please stop throwing this term around as you're not only misrepresenting what the food actually is, you're also unnecessarily toying with the pizza emotions of actual NY people living in Chicago who are on an endless search for something even remotely comparable.
Whew.
So - we ordered a pie half cheese/ half pepperoni. The delivery was fairly prompt and arrived in under an hour. (Oh yeah, in NYC delivery comes in 20 minutes). When I opened the box I knew off the bat that this wasn't what I expected. Sure, maybe it had the appearance of NYC pizza but I could tell it was going to be anything but. The flavor itself was actually good so I wouldn't rule this place out again but if I'm not getting the real deal, I'd rather stick with any of the other million options for mediocre pizza in Chicago. The price was cheap too so another + there. If my expectations weren't so severely disappointed, I'd probably throw on an extra star but alas, if you're looking for NYC pizza and get food from P&M you too will be foiled.
The delivery guy was nice but when I left my place a little later that night, I noticed that he had bombed the elevators and floors of my condo with menus for not only P&M but some other coffee place in Bucktown. This is pretty tacky and my guess it's something the owners encourage him to do. At least take the time to slip menus under people's doors or in the mail room as opposed to leaving them on the floor in the elevator and hallways. K, thanks. -

The pizza is soooooooooooooo good!
I got a small one with cheese and green peppers and it was delicious. The cheese was so melty. They make 2 kinds thin crust and thick.
The thin crust was perfect. It was thin and crunchy and not burned.
I was excited to finally have a pizza place conveniently located to me. That was tasty and delicious.
They just opened today - july 15th.
The owner is really nice and all the guys behind the counter were super friendly. -

I recall seeing a menu for Paula and Monica's floating around somewhere awhile back, but I didn't realize until last week that they had been up and running for months now!
I walked over and picked up a cheese slice last weekend. 1/4 pizza is more like it! It's a healthy portion...too much for me for 1 meal. That and a soda for $4. Seems like a deal to me. I like this pizza. Good sauce, not too greasy cheese. I like the crust. We ordered delivery on a weeknight, (pathetic considering how close we live...but it was too cold and rainy for the walk) and it was here in under an hour. I do not recommend their Italian beef. It's yucky. But the roll it was on was good. Next time, I will try a sub sandwich.
People working there seem nice enough, and it's a pleasant, clean store front for pick up. This place will definitely go into our regular rotation. Another welcome addition to the neighborhood. -

As a native New Jerseyan, I am a jerk about pizza. Santullos has been the only place that's been a reliable go-to for what I truly consider an acceptable slice. Bacci and Village are close and are therefore acceptable options, but they're really more like a booty call than a date if you catch my drift.
With this in mind, I gave Paula and Monica's a shot and was pleasantly surprised. $4 for a huge slice and a soda! The cheese and sauce were great, as was the crust. The crust was a little thicker than I'd like it to be, but that's the pizza jerk talking more than any real gripe. I'm thrilled to have a new, real pizza option in the 'hood! -

I'm having a hard time deciding between 4 and 5 stars here. I'm selecting 4, but you can consider this a 4.5 star review.
I'm not afraid to say it--I'm a pizza snob. When someone from Chicago tells me that they ate pizza at Pizza Hut or got delivery from Dominos, I am deeply offended. Why would anyone order pizza from a national chain when we live in the pizza capital of the world?
Anyway, it's a pizza joint, so I don't have THAT much to say. It's New York style, which is a nice change from what I call "Chicago Style Thin" (thin, crispy and usually square-cut). I think it's the best NY style pizza I have had in Chicago. It's our go-to place for delivery and pick-up in our neighborhood (Wicker Park/West Town). -

Found this place to be filled with pros and cons:
Service:
Pros: Deliver was very fast for a weekend night
Cons: After online ordering fees, delivery charge, and tip a "14 1-topping pizza cost me $23! TIP: Call and order to save at least some money.
Quality:
Pros: Pizza was fairly tasty. Crust was ok...little bland but doable.
Cons: I know it is a pizza and grease is expected but my hand had grease running down my arm after picking up a slice. A little too bland also. Again a little tasty but lots of room to improve.
Price:
Pros: Well... not any to list
Cons: I have had pizza from all over the area where this place is and I have to say they are priced high for average pizza. There is nothing fancy or award winning here that warrants a $9 10' personal sized cheese only pizza. Add $1 per ingredient for a 10". A 14" pepperoni for 15.25? Add $2.25 per inregdient for that one too! WTF! LOL. Folks thats not that good of a price for a 14" pizza. Wait until you add an ingredient...lol. BOOM!
Anyway.. maybe try it again someday. Just can't justify spending nearly 16 bucks on a greasy 1 topping pizza 14" pizza. Hey it tasted good, quick delivery, but they need to come down a bit in price. I can go to Bellas on Ashland that is very similar and get a family sized (huge) pizza with one topping and free 2-liter for $16. This place is a slight step up from Bellas but still... unless this place uses cheese from the milk of a golden cow, there isn't THAT much of a difference between the two! LOL -

I grew up my whole life with a Dad who ordered pizza every Friday night like clock work. Needless to say this turned me into a pizza fiend as well. I have been in Logan Square for almost a year and I am still in search of a few good "go to" Pizza places to satisfy my pizza fix every week or so. Paula and Monica's is not going to make it on my list. We had the pepperoni and ground beef and garlic. Both pizzas were mediocre at best. Pretty disappointing, the whole thing was just down right bland. Other people seem to like it here on Yelp but as a Pizza addicit I can not figure out why.

Just got back from my first trip to Paula and Monica's and I'm stuffed! The husband and I shared a 10" and it was plenty. The veggie pizza is packed with vegetables and flavor. The crust is super crispy and also has a great taste. The huge NY style slices are also a pretty good deal, but you can only get cheese, sausage, or pepperoni. It would be nice to have a green pepper or olive option for vegetarians who want a topping. This is my new "go to" pizza place in Noble Square.

This is similar to pizza you'd get at a state fair. The sauce is thick and possibly canned (tomato paste?) and is put on heavily. The crustis thin, slightly reminiscent of the old Domino's. The mushrooms are sauteed (in butter?) before they are put on the pizza. People love that the slices here are huge and are a good deal, but for a whole pie I wouldn't recommend it. Note that a 14" is pretty small and would probably feed 3 (or 4 if you are light eaters).

We had a craving for pizza... and the question was, where to? Yelpers rated this place a wonderful four stars, so we decided to give it a whirl.
Ordered up a pizza for takeout, vegeterian pizza, as it was Thursday and my roomie cannot eat meat. We arrived 20 minutes later, as the person on the phone suggested, only to find that it took closer to 35 minutes to get the pizza.
The box opened up as stomachs grumbled, and the pizza looked wonderful, smelled delicious, and had us drooling. We dived in for the first slice, and that's where things fell apart...
The crust with cornmeal, while good, did not hold well in the middle. It didn't seem to be a problem of oversaucing, but rather the liquid from the veggies and the massive amount of veggies put on weighed it down to the point that the middle of the pizza was floppy and soggy. The outer edge crust, however, was great. The sauce was fairly neutral and didn't seem to stand out.
Verdict:
Timing is off, so if you're getting take out, take your time getting there.
Fresh ingredients, and lots of them.
Outer crust, is perfect on the thin crust pizza.
Center was soggy and ruined the experience a bit.
$18 ain't bad, but ain't cheap. You can likely get something a bit better for the same price. -

Decided I wanted to be a couch potato one day so I decided I'd order pizza. I usually order from Pauly's but last time the pizza was cold when I got it so I jumped on http://grubhub.com and searched for a place. Paula and Monica's had great reviews so I went with them.
Pizza arrived piping hot! I ordered a pan cheese pizza and it looked soooo good. Ooey gooey cheesy goodness! The slice were huge. I know I ordered pan but it was a bit too doughy for me. It tasted really good though.
I'm definitely going to order from them again. I think I'll stick to the thin crust though. :-) -

Yum. I was looking for some new pizza to give a try tonight. I got the regular thin crust with extra cheese. Had a really nice taste to it!
I also ordered garlic bread it wasn't bad it was liken long strips of bread. There was some type of seasoning really standing out that wasn't garlic and it kind of threw me off. Maybe basil?
Nothing special or outstanding about the meal but it was good. I'd eat it again. -

After reading a friend's Facebook status about waking up next to pizza (don't ask), I was suddenly struck with a post-gym need for cheese and sauce.
I browsed Yelp to see what I could find. Miraculously, Paula & Monica's appeared. I remembered walking past on my way home from work and thinking I'd give it a try sometime - but later forgot.
I am SO GLAD I REMEMBERED about this place. It was so delicious. If you're a fan of NY-style thin crust, this stuff's pretty killer, plus the gentleman on the phone was very nice, and it arrived in wayyyy under one hour.
Can't wait to order again.
P.S - If online ordering is your thing, I noticed you can order via GrubHub, too. Just sayin'. -

Really the greatest thin crust sausage slice I have had.
Cheese was almost oozing off the pizza.
I can't wait to try all the others.
