Review Borelli Pizza - Chicago

Jonathan Fasano
Pretty disappointed. Read the great reviews online and thought this place was worth checking out. The pizza itself tasted ok but the overall experience was very poor. 3 significant mistakes with a 2 item order is terrible execution. 1. I specifically asked for our pizza to be pie cut in the online order. The cashier pointed out that she “accidentally” tavern cut it. This is a giant pet peeve for me and I would have asked for it to be remade if I had more time., 2. Ordered boneless wings, specifically write that I want them covered in hot Buffalo with blue cheese on the side. What I got - Plain wings, hot sauce, no blue cheese anywhere. Great., 3. We open the pizza and there is this burnt black sand looking stuff all over one side of it on the bottom. I’m assuming they decided to scrap the oven as my order was in there. Looked absolutely disgusting. I’m seriously shocked they managed to get this much wrong. 1st and last time they’ll get an order from me. They get 2 stars because the pizza not covered in sand was edible.

Good thin crust pizza with plenty of cheese. Great atmosphere and vintage wood decor and a solid playlist.

Ordered pickup and I wanted out front to pickup my pizza, while waiting I noticed a grown teenager making the pizza with no mask, scratching theyre face and apron and even drinking and snacking while making my pizza. givin the times that’s extremely gross and unsanitary. When I went in The staff seemed to be run by clueless teenagers. The female cashier seemed like a deer in headlights and gave my a cold pizza from on top of the oven, which she barely could reach, making me concerned if they even clean up there And finally the pizza….. the dough was like a under baked cracker, it was tough but soft at the same time. the pepperoni was tasteless and the cheese mediocre. After 2 bites the whole pizza went in the trash Even my cat didn’t like it and she loves pizza And now for the cannolis, they look inappropriate and tasted worse All in all, for $36 for the whole meal this was terrible, I wish we could have returned it once we saw the kid touching everything but we had already paid

Great pizza...AND the caprese salad delicious. Reminds me so much of my hometown place but with an awesome selection of records up front....what! We will definitely be visiting this place when we make the trip to the city. Reminds me how lucky we are to call Chicago home even as suburban adults.

Amazing ambiance. Great pizza. Borelli's is a wonderful place to bring your family. They have a room in the back with Old Time arcade games. They also sometimes have live music. Their outdoor eating area is lovely too!

Nothing pretentious about this place, it is the real thing! Warm rustic neighborhood atmosphere and Chicago hospitality. Enjoy delicious Italian-style flatbread pizza while becoming friends with the owner and your pie-maker! I am visiting from California and met with Chicago family and we wanted a friendly and relaxing place to dine. And being a pizza lover, I wanted at least one real pizza experience in Chicago. We found it all here. Don't expect upscale props, just something genuine. Enjoy!

This pizza is top notch! I'm embarrassed about how long it took me to get around to trying it, but it will be a go-to from now on. The food was quality, made with care and all out delicious. Really can't wait for the pandemic to be over and dining in is an option. The place looks super charming. A neighborhood gem!
