East of Chicago Pizza - Syracuse

So, decided to try this franchise, and definitely won’t be back. We ordered a supposed Chicago Deep Dish, with an extra $6 in toppings. I honestly couldn’t see much of anything for toppings, not taste them. Scant cheese, and a whole pile of sauce, with was decent. More like a tomato pie, than anything else. It was like a mostly empty crater of a pie shell. I’d give this place a hard pass, unless your into lacklustre food, which many appear to be.

Ordered delivery; so atmosphere?? But ordered pizzas and nachos. Usually nachos come soggy and pretty gross. These were crispy and delicious with plenty of toppings. Probably the only decent delivery nachos I’ve experienced.. Pizzas were hot and fresh; came about 15 mins before app was saying. Pizza was medium fluffy on inside and a nice buttery crunch underneath and on crust. Kids wanted to try Chicago style and was pretty good. Having been to Chicago it’s obviously different but absolutely resembles authentic Chicago pizza. Will continue to order and try more items for sure. Top pizza delivery place in my area so far.

I ordered online for delivery and the pizza was great! I love my pizza well done and my request was followed and it was cooked perfectly. Crust was great. I did also order Cajun lemon dry rub wings - not my favorite but they were ok. I wished they were more crispy. But the pizza more than made up for it. I know if I’m back in town I’ll order again for sure.

Ordered the deep dish, 10 garlic parm wings, and a the brownie thing. First, don't order through GrubHub, the food was cold when it arrived that's not on the restaurant at all. BUTTTTTTT.... what is on them: The sauce was tossed on after the pizza was cooked, so it was fairly watery and not reduced in the slightest. The crust was just okay, though I will admit it wasn't too saggy in the center. Very reminiscent of Pizza Hut pan pizza. Then there were the wings, at just about $2 a wing I expect to get all ten that I ordered. Unfortunately, someone needs to learn to count because the order only had 8. The brownie desert tasted like a chocolate pancake. Crispy while somehow being floury at the same time. Did try and call but it went straight to voice mail. To stick with the Chicago theme of the name, I think I would but this on par with Malört. **edit** since you couldn't find the order i added a picture of they receipt. I have also sent a follow-up email to the address in the reply.

Third time a charm. This place has won us over. I love the options they have with their pizzas and crust. The dough is really good and the balance of everything is well done! I love that they put ranch packets in with the pizza. First time we tried the garlic cheese bread which was delicious and crunchy. The Tower which grew on us with the unique flavors and toppings combined. The Chicago Melt with the garlic butter & parmesan crust. This crust is award winning putting a whole another element to the pizza. The second time we tried the cheese fries which were average. The regular wings which were not good. Unfortunately, I would not recommend. A Specialty half & half pizza (Deluxe & Chicken Bacon Ranch) which was not well balanced when cooked. The loaded cheese crust was fantastic. Understandably, there are bad days. I still appreciate the time and effort put in. Thank you. The third time was as exceptional as the first. Finally, tried the Apple Pops. Highly recommended! Dough and sweetness is perfectly done. A Deluxe pizza that was cooked perfectly. Another Specialty half & half (Hawaiian & Chicken Bacon Ranch) with pepperoni & cheese crust which was cooked perfectly as well. On
