Mena MigallyJune 8, 2019Caesar salad followed by Pepperoni and Whipped Ricotta as well as the Honey and Salami Pizzas were just what the doctor ordered! Came here based on 4sq and will come again to try the rest! Super fast!
Ricel AlmadovarJanuary 25, 2014'Nduja is one for the books!! Calabrian style pork sausage melts in your mouth! Small space but they dont cram you - very considerate and friendly staff. Will surely come back! #coalfire
Mychele BissonMay 25, 2018Found this on Foursquare. Stopped in. It’s now one of my favorite pizza places. The whipped ricotta is kind of amazing and the Caesar dressing is homemade
Chicago TribuneNovember 7, 2017This is the Leonardo DiCaprio of pizzas — it sweeps every awards list. And for good reason: Chefs whip ricotta with 'nduja (en-DOO-ya), a spicy salami that's soft enough to be spreadable. Read more
ChicagoistAugust 1, 2014Coalfire focuses on the freshest dough and ingredients making their margherita and Fiorentino pizzas among the best in the city, but their mortadella pie is the must-eat. Read more
Leah JubinalJuly 12, 2013I have never met a waitress or anyone for that matter that makes you want to be their friend immediately until meeting Tonya. Great pizza, fun environment and wonderful pizza. ❤
David EldridgeNovember 9, 2013Sausage and red onion pizza is great, classic flavors. Get a pizza and a salad for two people and save room for a cupcake. Otherwise two pizzas if no salad.
Justine GershakApril 9, 2014Make sure to try the Nduja and White pizzas! Absolutely unreal - one of the best pizza places in town.
Jessica MarheeMarch 24, 2015Anything with whipped ricotta is amazing!! Get a margarita pizza and add whipped ricotta to it and you will not be sorry.
Jenn LeFloreJuly 8, 2015Get the salad that has the apples/blue cheese...I'm obsessed. And pizza comes out in like 7mins. I don't understand how!
Pooneet KantSeptember 5, 2013Delicious New York style pizza (ie, proper thin crust). Everything is great, but the nduja is my favorite - spreadable spicy sausage on pizza!
Dhruv BNovember 19, 2012As good as Great Lake without any of the pretension. Go for the Margherita, the tomato sauce has a nice spicy kick. Sausage is good but not a game changer. Incredible value.
The crust was some of the best, crispy but not falling apart!! The salami was out of this world
Victoria UngerMarch 18, 2013Thin crust pizza is def the way to go and I love Coalfire's quick baked crust. Try the white pizza for sure - so fresh and lots of basil!
Kelly SchneiderMay 10, 2014Awesome pizza! The whipped ricotta is amazing. There's bars around there to grab a drink while you wait for your table too!
One of my favorite pizza places in Chicago - get the sausage and add arugula. The servers are always so friendly.- EaterJanuary 12, 2011Coalfire changed the way we think about thin crust. If you like it super crispy with a little bit of char, this is your new haunt. [Eater 38 Member]
After having lived in Chicago for 2 years, I can honestly say one of the best pizza places in town (and in the heart of the cheese heavy joints in the Italian hood)
Sarah K.August 7, 2014Margherita pizza and the Caesar is my go-to order (almost weekly!). The staff is among the best in the city.
Hampton Inn Carol Stream HotelApril 24, 2014Coalfire changed the way we think about thin crust. If you like it super crispy with a little bit of char, this is your new haunt.- Margarita with pepperoni + a white pizza is the best ordering combo. Also Dave is the nicest guy ever and makes you feel like the most important customer ever ;)
Lais Livon BowmanMay 14, 2016Pepperoni and whipped ricotta pizza is amazing!! Also had a creme brûlée cupcake. So, so good!
There is no better thin crust pizza place in Chicago! We literally go here at least once a week. Mortadella is awesome!!
Some of the best and most gracious hosts/staffs I've ever known. Wood fire pizza is off the hook!
Matthew SupertMarch 9, 2014This place is trendy and fills up quick. If you get there before 6:00 you can usually get a seat quick.
Manoj AmbalavananMarch 24, 2021Simple spot with a great thin crust pizza. One pizza it’s just the right amount for one person- The best thin crust pizza among the 25 I have been too in Chicago. Try pepperoni mushroom and green peppers!
- Matthew K.August 6, 2014Margherita is simple and delicious. Also the staff is always ridiculously nice and helpful.
MikeDecember 28, 2015The crust on the pizza is incredible, but the pizza itself did not live up to the hype. We tried a few types - make sure to steer clear of the ones with honey. They taste like a stale waffle.
Parking is tough. Friendly service. Fair prices. Pepperoni with whipped ricotta = yum.
Some of the best pizza in Chicago. The mortadella pie and sausage pie and excellent.
Matthew RheinMay 26, 2013Table by the fire, pizza was cooked to perfection, try the cookie dough cupcake!- Among the top 5 pizza places on many lists including mine. Great food and staff and fair prices.
MartinNovember 13, 2018Honey & Salami - Mozzarella, Sauce, Berkshire Sopressata, Honey, Calabrian Chili
Mark KrystopaJuly 28, 2013Great service and customer friendly. Voted best thin crust in the city 2013.
- Some of the best pizza in chicago! The mortadella pie is unreal!
Time Out ChicagoDecember 20, 2013The nduja pizza at Coalfire is one of the 100 best things we ate this year. http://tmout.us/rLOtk Read more
Nduja and White Pizza w/ sausage are both incredible.
