Pizzeria Ora

Pizza was SO SO GOOD! Hot wings, DEElish. Loved that they had local (Goose Island) beer on tap. Don't let the Best Western location fool you. This place and its pizza are LEGIT. We were so fortunate to have spent quite a bit of time talking with the owner, originally from Syria. Walid reminded us how blessed we all are to be in the US of America. He has STORIES of hardship and has worked incredibly hard to make it here and provide for his family. What a BLESSING Walid is to our country! He is living proof the American dream is still alive. Thank you, Walid ❤️

This place looks like it would serve subpar food. We went to hardrock Cafe and it was awful. We decided this place couldn't be much worse. Luckily for us it is fantastic. The food is fantastic, the drinks are fantastic. It's got a pretty simple atmosphere but the service and food makes up for it 100% We had an appetizer which was hot and out quickly. The salad was simple but fresh and the honey mustard was amazing. The steak sandwich was large and cooked well. The El Blanco deep dish was sooooo good. It's worth a stop 100% Just be wary of the busy times. We went from a nice quiet dinner to 25 people walking in from some type of business meeting all shouting and crowding the bar. Not the restraunts fault, but if you want quiet watch those peak hours.

One of my favorite spots in Chicago. I used to work across the street from them so I've been in the restaurant a lot. I was at the Chicago Craft Beer Festival this past Saturday and wanted to get something to eat afterwards. When I got to Pizzeria Ora I wanted something filling but not too heavy. So I got the mozzarella cheese sticks and some fried calamari. I really liked both dishes, I wish both were fried just a little bit harder.
