Worst food from a pizza place I’ve EVER had. Ever had a burnt pizza but the crust was so soggy that it had to be ripped from the cardboard? Not me until tonight. Ever gotten a Burnt beef with cheese? Not me until tonight. I literally threw the food away. I don’t know what these others reviews are talking about because I literally puked my food up to keep from getting sick. I’ve worked in pizza on and off for 20 years and I’m completely blown away by how terrible this experience was. Spaghetti-o sauce,mushy,burnt pizza? I didn’t even get veggies on the pizza to even warrant anything close to soggy. And I don’t mean greasy I mean soggy. Not only can they not cook the food well they didn’t even get my pizza right. How can you be bad at all these things at the same time? The only plus side was that it came hot but it also came back up hot too. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. I feel like I was just part of the show Kitchen Nightmares. Be prepared for the health inspector. I’m literally going to call them EVERY month for the next year.

Hands Down the best pizza place in the Chicago area. I’ve moved from the area and now whenever I can make it back to Chicago I make going here a priority.

Always, always hot and delicious. Friendly staff. I dont think they have made a mistake on an order in over10 years. We dine in and take out frequently.

I was hoping for better. The sauce ruined the pizza. I really wanted this to be my new favorite place as the atmosphere was nice however the pizza was just not very good. Change the sauce and you will be best around.

Ach-N-Lou’s reminded me of the tavern style pizza I grew up with in Chicago. The place and the pizza.

Since it opened in the late ‘70’s, A&L has been serving the BEST pizza I have ever eaten, and now at my age of 68, it has been a LOT of pizza. They only use fresh ingredients, and their deep dish, is always “over the top” good. I have taken them frozen to Dallas where they were shared with friends at a Salt Grass restaurant, and to a person, it was rated a “10”…. Like Oberweis milk, A&L Pizza is “Simply the Best”.

Fantastic thin crust pizza. This place is an order at the counter type of place and I don’t care for the area that it’s in but other than that I think the food is great!
