As a lover of deep dish, this place really hits it out of the park! I absolutely love their crust - it’s soft and buttery with the perfect amount of crispiness to it. The cheese melts in your amount and love the fact they do it per slice as well - whenever I would like to get my pizza fix.
Walked right in and was helped immediately, they make the pizza as soon as you order it, and with them being authentic deep dishes it takes a hot minute. Ordered the artichoke pesto, wonderful taste, makes the wait super worth it! Highly recommend the garlic knots! Prepare the roof of your mouth because it comes out HOT! But it tastes so good! And when you pull the pizza you get that cheese pull.
Via Chicago is true to its name. Their pies are legit Chicago style. It's more like eating lasagna than pizza. The sauce is good. Toppings are under the cheese and sauce. The crust has a croissant quality to it due to the butter. We ordered the "meaty" and a Artichoke & Parmesan with chicken. The meaty has Isemio's Hot Sausage...but it's not hot. I wouldn't order it again. Most of our group liked chicken one better. Be prepared for a wait. We also had an order of garlic knots. Our group liked them but I would have preferred garlic bread. It takes them 40+ minutes to bake one. They about a half dozen beers on tap are a variety of soft drinks. They also do pizza by the slice.
