Bar Cargo

First night in Chicago and this pizza is delicious ! Definitely come here to try great Roman style Chicago pizza. This is right up the street from the Best Western Hotel in River North and that's where I was staying but this place is good enough to travel to . Excellent pizza. We're from New York and we're tough pizza critics. Since it was my first time here I wanted to try Chicago pizza. And I know Chicago is mostly known for deep dish but those places looked like tourist traps . This place is very chill with really nice staff and sports on the TV if you like that. The Cargo Rita margarita.was delicious. The Italian Job drink is STRONG and has bourbon in it . Calamari was fresh and not an afterthought. Tasty. Pretty in Pink drink has vodka and strawberry puree, very tasty with mint . But the pizza is the star . Airy crust , flavorful and two people can share a small and probably still take a couple slices back to the Hotel. Got a half Fun Guy truffle sauce and mushrooms and half margherita style pizza (you can split the flavor) Waitress was really nice. I would come back.

Love the pizza here, seriously to die for. Alright happy hour deals as well. It can get a bit noisy though, sort of a club/younger vibe. Sorta wish they offered more of an actual restaraunt dining experience, though it does have 'bar' in the name. CBT pizza probably the best pizza I have ever had. Get the truffle oil on it.

My friend and I sat in the patio and really enjoyed the Chicago Pizza with a glass of IPA as well. The crust was phenomenal and the pizza was overall very filling. This is the perfect place if you're looking to have great pizza. The service was great as well and loved the general atmosphere. Plus they had a killer playlist! I plan on coming back to try their white sauce pizzas.

This place was a big surprise. Looks like many other places on the outside but has this fantastic indoor outdoor area in the back. The pizza crust was perfectly light and airy. The only very weird and ridiculous thing was that while they demonstrated a much welcomed acceptance of technology by having only QR codes in place of menus, they weren't consistent by also assuming you will use Google pay (or other) but instead walked away with my card...the kind of thing that people in other countries rightly ridicule.

If you are familiar with pizza al taglio, then you will be pleasantly surprised with Bar Cargo's pizza. Their light and crunchy crust and Italian inspired ingredients stay true to their Roman roots. The restaurants happy hour is also exciting, with great prices and a solid selection. I have not much else on their menu, as it feels wrong to miss out on such a good pizza!
