Quad Cities Style Pizza in the Heart of Old Town
Our third location, located on the ground floor of Piper’s Alley, brings new flavors to an “old” part of town. Join us before or after you see a show!
We only use the freshest, highest quality toppings on our pizza. And when we say local, we mean it—we make our own sausage, right here in our kitchen. When it’s all done and out of the oven, we take a big pair of scissors and cut the whole thing into strips.
Based on 225 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.3 stars. Price $$

Great handmade pizza, very tasty, and cheesy, and you can notice the fresh ingredients. We ask for the garden pizza, you can add any topping, we order with pepperoni, and was the perfect combination. You have many options and you can build your own too. It is definitely a nice place with nice servers.

The place is fun-games, music and big screens to watch sports. The service was excellent. The only thing I did not like is the food. The pizza was a little burnt, the chicken tenders were greasy, french fries were fine though.

We were visiting our son who goes to college in Chicago and wanted pizza after the air show. We tried Roots based on location and favorable reviews, and they were right! We got a “build your own” salad to share (plenty for 3 of us) and a large pizza with pepperoni. Everything was very fresh and we loved the dough! Service was very efficient and everyone was VERY friendly!!!

Chris was the best! We had to leave early for a Second City show, and the food (which was delicious— especially the HUGE mozzarella sticks) came quickly with a smile! Every time we come to Chicago, we have dinner at ROOTS Handmade Pizza! It’s always FANTASTIC!!!

Such a great family atmosphere! And a back room with games and a jukebox. Met a waitress from Ireland with a really cool, thick accent! Staff is smiley and looks happy to be there. Oh, and the ceiling ball light fixtures are made of cardboard cutout, you’ve gotta see it! Also, the pizza is unreal; sweet crust, and had the taco pizza which is literally a taco on a pizza, who knew this was possible.

We came here to try a different style of pizza and to kill some time before The Second City opened its doors. It was pretty good. We got the Taco Pizza which wasn’t my favorite pizza on our trip to Chicago but they have a great selection of beers as well. I gave it 5 stars cause James was awesome with our beer tasting. They sell the beer by 6oz or 16oz which is great for beer lovers, so try them all! I will definitely will be back to try other toppings and beers.

I had the Greek like salad and it was marvelous! It was also huge. It was the second time I have had it. My visitors from Minneapolis had pizza and loved it. Great service, very friendly. My go – to place now that I live nearby.

Had lunch here before catching a flight home. Heard the mozzarella sticks were delicious here – they weren’t wrong! They were AMAZING. The whole menu sounded delicious so we asked the bartender Greyson to suggest what to eat. He suggested the pulled pork pizza and it didn’t disappoint! Thank you to Greyson for his hospitality and great service!
