The dining room is small (although they have a really nice patio with seating, too) but it has a great vibe - - exposed brick and a bar with a really great display of bottles. There's also a jukebox, which is always cool.
Everyone who works here is super friendly and extremely helpful. You can tell that they love this place and they love the food it serves. Our server was able to describe all the different things on the menu and make helpful suggestions. It definitely gave me a "Cheers" feeling. It seemed like there were a lot of regulars and repeat customers in there - - that says a lot about the place. Of course they were also very welcoming the first timers.
Hubby was only drinking water, but that didn't stop me from ordering a Peach Ring--a delicious tajin-rimmed peach vodka cocktail. Omg . . . I would go there just to get this drink! They do have a cocktail of the month, but as a lover of everything peach I could not pass up the Peach Ring.
We tried three starters and a pizza. I can't make up my mind which one was best because they were all so good. We had:
*Pizza Fritta, little pieces of pizza dough fried and seasoned like mini garlic knots and served with marinara. FYI, it's complimentary on your first visit!
*Cheese Curds served with marinara. I'm not sure if Wisconsin cheese is the actual type of cheese or just where the cheese comes from, but it is delish!
*Gravy Bread--bread covered in cheese served with an au jus kind of gravy for dipping. SOOOO good! It was so cheesy that it took two hands to pull it apart and the cheese was still stretching!
*Lakeshore Drive (sausage, pepperoni, meatball, and bacon) pizza on pan butter crust. It's like deep dish pizza, without the chunky pizza sauce. For me, it's the best of both worlds. FYI, they do have thin crust and regular deep dish crust, too. This pizza has so many toppings and so much cheese that it was extremely filling. It was amazing, the kind of deliciousness that makes you keep eating long after you should stop because it's so good. I seriously could not stop eating it.
I can't wait to go back and try the house chips and thin crust pizza.
The bottom line - - Vero Chicago Pizza fantastic. It should be on everyone's list! Between the friendly and helpful staff and absolutely delicious food, you can't go wrong.
P.S. they make their own sausage and it's...
Read more6/6/25 I was in the area so came and tried out some other pizzas. This time we got the Lake Shore Drive 14" deep dish which is a meatlovers pizza it was our favorite this trip, we also did a build our own 16" thin crust with basil, romas, sausage, and fresh mozzerella, was not what I was expecting to be honest, the romas were cut differently compared to a regular Margherita pizza and not enough, still the pizza was good. I would like it if they offered a prosciutto balsamic style pizza I think it would go well here. -Added 2 more photos of the pizza from this time.
5/24/25 Was craving some deep dish Chicago style pizza and decided to come here to try it out as all the other good places I used to go to are permanently closed. We had a side of the cheesy garlic bread, it was good. We ordered the Sears Tower and Water Tower Place 14" Deep Dish pizzas. My favorite was the Water Tower Place as I really liked the taste the fresh garlic brought to the pizza. The Sears Tower pizza was also good but I probably would get the Water Tower Place deep dish and choose a different pizza next time probably the Lake Shore Drive as it is a more meat lover style. Overall the pizza here is really good, glad I tried it out, we could only manage to eat 2 slices each and had a bunch of leftovers...
