One night after work my friend Molly invited me to dinner. She wanted pizza and said we should go to Lefty's Chicago Pizzeria for a slice and some beer. The atmosphere was quaint and filled with memorabilia from the city of Chicago. I felt comfortable there and really enjoyed the time with my friend.
Lefty's offers both a selection of thin crust and the traditional Chicago style crust. While the thin crust is tasty, it is obvious that their specialty is the Chicago style (thick) crust. The thick crust pizza is a decadent treat which, in moderation, satisfies completely. Unlike other thick crust pizzas I have tried, Lefty's crust is flavorful and a true part of the pizza experience. It was nice to taste a crust which was not just a vehicle for the sauce, cheese, meat, and veggies. Thankfully, the crust is the focal point and does its namesake proud. While the thin crust pizza was 'okay' the Chicago style crust was amazing and worth the trip. If you are looking for a great place to hang out with friends and indulge in some high calorie pie, then Lefty's is the place to go.
