5. Gino's East

162 E Superior St (btwn Fairbanks Ct & Michigan Ave), Chicago, IL
Pizzeria · Streeterville · 272 tips and reviews
Obadiah Poundage: The sausage pizza is a hubcap-sized disc of sausage in a deep dish pizza. Do not contemplate buying anything else. And grab a craft beer, you've got a 45-minute wait at least.
Collin Vold: Great local beers on tap to hold you over for the long wait. Worth every second.
Kim Marks: So in addition to having the best pizza, Gino's has stepped up the craft beer menu a bit. 5 locals on tap and about 20 decent bottles to choose from. Nicely done.

Taco Restaurant · Near North Side · 120 tips and reviews
Graylyn Roose: The chicken tikka tacos are my favorite, with the falafel tacos not far behind! Lots of space and great for groups, and a decent local beer selection too. What more could you want from a taco place?
TheOutOfTowner: The Elote corn, Cuban pig were great. Would skip the tikka chicken taco. They have local craft beers and fun drinks. The seating isn’t the most comfortable, it’s social & makes for a great quick meal
Sarah Smith: I really enjoyed the shrimp and grits taco! The rotisserie chicken taco could have had a little more seasoning. Margs are also not too sweet just right!
10. Happy Camper

1209 N Wells St (Division), Chicago, IL
Pizzeria · Old Town · 36 tips and reviews
Cole Kennedy: Happy Camper is a good conundrum: It's a near perfect sports bar, but it's also a hip spot with great atmosphere, killer pizza and bar food, craft beer, and a dope soundtrack.
Viktor Göhlin: Nice place with nice people. Awesome interior design. The pizzas are good. Appetizers are the right size and nicely served.
Eater: Many items are named after friends, saying spending time with your favorite pizza is as rewarding as spending time with a lovable pet. Like Josh: pulled pork, pineapples, jalapeños and barbecue sauce. Read more.

Pizzeria · Old Town Triangle · 40 tips and reviews
Redeye Chicago: Inside, this eatery is all old-school Italian with brick walls and checked tablecloths. Outside, the massive patio is the perfect place to devour a pizza and a few rounds of craft beer. Read more.
Amelia Claire: Huge patio with plenty of pups!
Mo Kabre: Fabulous Pizza! The ROCCO Special is always on point! Join the Spartans for Half priced PIZZA on Mondays and great networking!
Nick Aguirre: Quite possibly the best Mac and Cheese I've ever eaten. The interior design is notable, the service is on point, excellent craft beer selection and the food is definitely worth the price.
Lili Liaskas: Fried Chicken, Piemento Mac&Cheese, Brussels sprouts, all the salads
Lili Liaskas: Cool spot with right-on food! Must try the fried chicken and Mac n Cheese! I aways judge a place by their Brussels sprouts and The Vig passes with flying colors. Can't wait to come back.

Speakeasy · River North · 76 tips and reviews
Kevin M. McNally, CMP: Chicago's oldest tavern (est 1921). Fun, eclectic, lots of craft beers and good drinks, food is delicious and you'll feel like you've stepped back in time. Cheers!
Allison Kaminski: One of the oldest bars in Chicago!! Great Brussel sprouts and buffalo chicken sandwich. Speakeasy in the basement 😉
Adam Seger: Green Door Chile with lots of hot sauce washed down with a tall hum & soda will cure the common cold.
