I was walking by Social and always wanted to try their food, so today was the day.
I ordered Wood Roasted Chicken Salad and it was delicious.
The portion was small compare to its price.
Overall: With not many pizza options in the immediate area, Sono is a good choice for a light-crust craving.
The good: The pizzas were delicious - the crust was hearty yet airy and flaky. They have a pretty decent selection of topping styles to choose from (pesto and burrata was one), and the portion sizes of the pizzas were well-sized and great for splitting (2 for 4 people was fine). The waiter was friendly and the low-lit ambiance was a nice touch.
The not-so-good: Expensive. Luckily our apps were discounted, but if they weren't it would've been a large bill. Also, the calamari had fried peppers in it. Which, while good, seemed like a cop out to fill the plate.

Como delicio! First time visiting Sono Wood Fire and I will definitely be returning. They have an incredible, not to pass up, Tuesday pizza and pasta deal for $10! We tried the Quattro fromaggio, basil burrata and speck pizza and each was phenomenal-made with top quality fresh ingredient. The atmosphere and staff are so helpful, personable, and friendly. Will definitely be returning!
So I came here on a whim because I was in the area with my friend and we couldn't agree on anything other than pizza for dinner. So, after a quick Google search this place came up. A really nice place, loved the decor and overall vibe. Service was a little slow but it did seem like they were short staffed for the night (no points deducted for that). My waiter/bartender was on point, and went through the drinks and the various options available and offered great suggestions (also hella cute lol). We ended up getting the arancini for the appetizer and the spinach pizza (with ricotta and goat cheese). First of all that pizza just was so fabulous I would honestly go back for that alone. The arancini looked fabulous and had a lovely texture perfectly crispy but it was lacking some serious salt. I didn't want to deduct any points for that because it could've just been an off night. I will go back for the fabulous pizza (and the eye candy lol)
We had some quality issues with our takeout pizza order but the employees we talked to to resolve the problem were very kind and apologetic, they take pride in their work so we're going to try again another day! Excellent customer service, the spicy Italian sausage pizza topping was really good!
Pleasantly surprised! Great wine select. Salad was flavorful, complex and filling. I even split it! Pizza was incredible. Fabulous crust, the right consistency not too crispy not too soft. Toppings were fresh and sauce was tasty! If I know any food, it's pizza, and these pies hold up!
Went with friends but this would be a great place for a date due to the ambience. Pizza and the two apps were pretty good. Our sever was a saint considering someone in our party was being a bit much. Overall it was a good experience and love that you can make reservations.
I came here on a date once. They have an okay beer selection, but the cocktails are not to be missed. We had two different pizzas, which we split. The pizza is amazing! Thin bubbly crust, with fresh toppings, piping hot right out of the oven. You can't go wrong! The waitress was a bit short with us, I'm not really sure why. The bartenders were lovely and knowledgeable.
Great location, good food, cool interior. I and my friend ordered spicy sausage pizza, and it was delicious thin crust pizza, even though it was a little bit burned. I got a glass of red from France, it was good as well. It's right in front of the red line stop, North/Clybourn. Nice place to hang out with your friends for drink and small bites.
Sono Wood Fired has extremely thin crust pizzas with delicious flavor combinations. They also makes pretty good drinks in a very good appetizers. Quiet during the week so you don't need a reservation. Parking is a little to find.
favorite wood fired pizza in Chicago. the crust is delicious and they have specials every week night that end up being really great deal. $10 pizza and pasta on Tuesdays. they alsonhave a great wine selection and a good selection on draft. The staff is always warm and helpful.
Creative and delicious food with friendly service. Mussels appetizer was a great deal

Great atmosphere, courteous service. Pizza good with thin crust, bruschetta better, look for the fig one or the red sweet pepper. What deserved the 5 stars was the gnocchi: a must have. Good variety of wines. Little pricey but worthy, around 35USD/person including a glass of wine.
I love everything about this place. I usually end up here several times a year and the staff is friendly, welcoming and I think they always remember me. The seasonal caprese salad is the best I've ever had and the pizzas are always amazing. Daily specials are awesome and their selection of bruschettas is out-of-this-world. Atmosphere is cozy. One of my most favorite places in Chicago.
Best, most authentic Neapolitan pizza in Chicago. Hands down. Charred, wafer thin crust, flame kissed in the wood burning oven. Great toppings, fresh ingredients. Cannot go wrong here. I love all of the pizzas from simple margarita to more complex creations. My favorite is the spicy calpiccola with charred red onions and spicy sauce. YUM.
This is a very solid place for good Neapolitan Pizza. The bruschetta are also quite delicious as well as the risotto ball appetizer. Service is friendly and efficient I Allound a good choice for dinner either as a date or with a larger group.
If is spelled Sonny, sorry, she was like a blast of sunshine on our first below freezing evening of '18. So I'm sticking with Sunny until we meet again. She was so fast to come up with a homemade warm something with whiskey behind the bar. She was so pleasant that when offered a table we declined and had our meal where we started. We we're sitting away from our large group and had occasional visitors stop by to chat. Her timing with regard to course delivery was served in harmony with our conversations. Impeccably timed interjections. Nick our friends' server was amazing, treating everyone as if they were already longtime friends and patrons. His attitude was solid gold as we were there with a separate long table of no less than 8 kids sitting alone together. He made everyone feel individually special. We split a salad and pizza. The greens were super fresh and dressed just right. The pizza had a little extra crunch on its crackery crust. Not as light and open than than the typical Neapolitan bordo. Nice...given we there to enjoy the flavor over feeling weighed down, overloaded, or over-salted from a restaurant meal. It was a wonderful wood-fired flat bread with high quality toppings. Great pizza after settling in and getting accustomed to its character around the second slice. The valet was convenient as well. I'm a walking billboard.
