West Town hot spot does tavern-style pizza right

Worth booking weeks ahead, Pizz’Amici in Chicago’s West Town neighborhood sets the new standard for tavern-style pizza, according to Eater Chicago. Located in a former barbershop at 1215 W. Grand Ave., Pizz’Amici is owned by Cecily and Billy Federighi. The dimly lighted eatery has a cozy feeling with seating for about 30 and another eight spots at the bar. Its tavern-style pizza is made with “an impressive cracker-thin crust that’s the perfect base for Chicago-favorite toppings like fennel sausage, Italian beef and giardiniera,” Eater Chicago writes. The menu also features dishes like sausage and peppers, meatballs, caponata, homemade focaccia and a handful of salads. Beverages include spritzes, cocktails, beer and wine. For more, click here.
