Finally tried this place after my friends had hyped it up to me for a while. It was totally fine, but didn't live up to the hype. Quality and taste was good, just on par with something I could've whipped up at home and a little overpriced. Pizza looked fine and staff was helpful and friendly.

The cheese is huge and just melts in your mouth. The taste of my deep dish sausage pizza slice was amazing! Exceeded my expectations.

Nice atmosphere. It was busy but not too crowded. The only issue I had was when my order was ready, I wasn't called. The cashier came up to me and notified me that my food was done. They gave me a time frame, and it was actually done in that time but because the atmosphere was so nice I didn't realize the time had passed so fast. Great place!! I will be back

Good Chicago style pizza 🍕 Place near Millennial Park. You can eat outside and enjoy the City

Here's the thing: the sandwiches here are great, but you're paying Loop prices. We're talking $20 for a 12" sub. Granted, the quality is great, but . . . that's a bit much IMO. I will definitely go back every so often, regardless. Staff is really nice. Can't comment on the pizza.

My dad knew "Red" Fontano back in the 80's. I believe he remodeled the original Polk Street location, and may have built or remodeled other locations.
I remember going to the Polk Street location and the food being awesome. A coworker suggested we go to lunch here today, and I remembered the connection.
We visited the Michigan Ave location and I am happy to report the subs are STILL AWESOME!

Came in for lunch in earlier morning hours.
Nice find on Michigan Avenue where everyone else still seemed to be trying to wake up.
Extremely clean and welcoming. Greeted on arrival. There are tons of options to order from, friendly employees, and decent seating. TV for game, but visual only.
The pizza was awesome. We'd gotten "thin" crust, and it definitely was traditional, but perhaps that's Chicago's version of thin. Either which, we didn't mind, very fulfilling and tasted great.
Would recommend and return.

My favorite sandwich place downtown. Or catch a slice of bacon and pepperoni pizza(my personal favorite} when it's hot and ready.
Also they're one of the few spots downtown that still has Barq's Root Beer as a fountain choice.

My choice of restaurant for the deep dish pizza! Delicious slice, good price, nice atmosphere.

Very impressed of the texture of their Chicago style Pizza. First the cheese and sauce had an unique flavor to it with a nice kick to it, love how everything stays in place as you’re holding the slice and bite into it. Great thing about Fontana’s is that they serve pizza by the slice.
