Their pizza is amazing thin crust or deep dish it is one of the best in the area. I have been ordering from this particular Beggars for over 10 years. I usually order for pick up but this time I decided to dine in and my dine in experience was the absolute pits. The three stars are strictly for the pizza.
It was a week day mid evening and the restaurant was not crowded and I understand why. The service experience was absolutely disappointing. My waitress took my order and only returned to my table twice once to put a plate on my table and the other time was to put my pizza on my table. When I finished eating, I had to search for her to bring me my bill and then a second time to get a to go box. If the restaurant was crowded, I could understand the lack of service and attention, but that was not the case there had to be maybe three other patrons in the entire restaurant.
I will continue to order pizza from Beggars but only as a pick up order and I will never ever ever dine in again.Helpful 4Thanks 1Love this 2Oh no 1Apr 17, 2020Previous reviewSo Friday night was extremely memorable for me because the pizza was so damn good I almost forgot to take a picture. If you want a fantastic fresh robust flavorful pizza then this place is for you. The chef piles it on thick but the pile on is strategic and the layers of cheese, meat, sauce and vegetables create a masterpiece. Thin crust or deep dish whatever your fancy they do it well.

The beef taco pizza is amazing. We loved it! Probably one of the top two taco pizzas I've ever tasted for sure. I would definitely get it again. My only complaint is prices are kind of high compared to some other pizza spots.
We also tried the chicken taco pizza. That was also good, but we preferred the beef one.
Service at carry out was good and they have a parking lot.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Deirdre V.Oak Lawn, IL365596Nov 2, 2023Updated review
The food is always delicious. It was Halloween. The restaurant was busy with carry out and delivery orders, but it did not cause our food to be delayed. The waitress was very attentive. Came back often to check that everything was okay. This place is very consistent. They are not skimpy with the ingredients.

They carry slices all day long at that location. I have eaten at several locations (Blue Island, Oak Lawn, Mokena, Chicago). They are generous with their ingredients. They are on the pricier end, but it is worth the price. Their appetizers provide huge portions. Their seasoned curly fries are good. The garlic bread with cheese is great.

This is a mixed bag. As we ordered pizza for carry out for the first time at the Mokena location and it was great as the whole family liked it. So we ordered again two weeks later and it was 180 degrees different. Both pizzas were a soggy mess with one being plain cheese. Not sure what changed but will think twice about going back. Really disappointed as we are still looking for our go to place for pizza.

Usually order a thin crust sausage and black olive pizza. Always good, always plenty of toppings, always plenty of cheese. Usually have a salad also, Italian chef, antipasto, or garden salad. Salad is fresh and full of delicious toppings. Garlic dressing tasty, homemade and usually keep the dressing to dunk the pizza in. Free refills on soft drinks. Coupons are easy to find and use and they have a loyalty club for additional discounts. Many televisions with the current games playing.

Best bbq chicken pizza - omg they definitely lay on the cheese thick!! Only suggestion would be, next time I'll say easy on the sweet baby rays bbq sauce, just a hint too much (this time).

This is one of our local favorites! We walked in on a Friday night and it was very busy but we're sat right away. Our sever was good and took our drink and pizza order right away. We ordered our deep dish pizza order at the same time we ordered our drinks because it takes at least 50 minutes for the pizza to cook. She told us the time was running around one hour fifteen minutes for deep dish. We also ordered dough bites for an appetizer. Our drinks canes out quickly and the appetizer shortly after. Pizza took around one hour and the manager brought it to our table. Appetizer and pizza was really good. They have beer on tap and my husband and I both got 32 oz beers. This location is marketed with the Chicago White Sox. Funny thing, they were playing and the game was only on 2 TVs in the whole place. We had to ask to have it put on one of the TVs by us instead of Funny Car racing!

Just got an awesome massage and stopped here with my significant other for a fat, stuffed and fattening pizza. First, I sipped a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon and munched on a Greek salad shared with my husband. The salad was delicious but a little salty. We downed a few fried taco appetizers - don't judge until you try them - and then the pizza arrived. It was delicious! Jalapeño peppers, cheese pepperoni, olives, onions and cheese -- yum! I could only down one piece as it's a meal in itself. The service was good and the atmosphere relaxing. It's nice to be out again. One more thing... masks aren't required; however starting on 8/30, the mask mandate for Illinois kicks in and masks will be required once again. Go figure!
