“They have a great outdoor patio that's perfect for warm summer nights, and even though commercial places like Giordano's and Gino's East are good, Gulliver's is my favorite place to go when I want real Chicago style pizza.”

THE BEST. It's really funny. As I read the reviews that are not 5 stars I am absolutely certain that they have no clue what a great Chicago deep-dish pizza is supposed to be. I have lived in Chicago-land my whole 58 years and I have tried all of them--many more than once! Living in West Rogers Park Chicago I am 1.5 miles away from the Original Lou Malnattis and 1.5 miles away from Gullivers on Howard. In the last 5 years EVERY time we are ready for deep-dish pizza we go to Gullivers. I could write many paragraphs of comparisons but suffice to say that if you are new in town and have discovered Lou's and think-WOW head to Gullivers just for giggles and then say goodbye to Lou's, you won't be back

Sets the benchmark for Chicago pan pizza!!!. Incredible pan pizza. Tomato sauce is thick and well-seasoned - I would believe it if they said an old Italian lady is in the back making her secret recipe. The crust was thick but springy. Tough to do and seldom done successfully but they carried it off.

I've been going for years and have always liked it. New owners bought the restaurant about a year ago. I've held off on my review waiting to see what they'd do. So far so good. Thankfully they didn't change the pizza recipes. They did solve the lack of parking and expanded/upgraded the bathrooms (my two biggest long standing complaints with the old owner).

I'll be back for more....

Not like it used to be. Been ordering and eating here for decades, something is different, the pizza does not taste the same. Used to LOVE this pizza, now its just Ok. Better pizza at other places. Please go back to your old recipe, or your old cook, or whatever it is that you changed. Sorry I won't spend that kind of money to get food that is not as good as it used to be.

Does not live up to its reputation. My roommate and I had heard great things from friends about the restaurant so we decided to check it out awhile back. The atmoshphere is eclectic and interesting. The food was bland and less than interesting. The prices were high for just OK food. We were both disappointed with the food and the service.

Watch out! Refills are not free. We assumed they were only to be shocked when we recieved the bill. There are much better restaurants in Rogers Park with better prices... and free refills.

I have never been back. I don't to either.
