Alright, I think it's impossible to make claims that any place has the ""best pizza in Chicago,"" because, as we all know, everyone's taste is different. But I will say this: when my boyfriend moved out of this neighborhood, one of the biggest downsides was not having Renaldi's thin crust pizza with sliced tomatoes delivered once a week anymore. I can't say the ambience is so unusually wonderful at Renaldi's, and the service is hit-or-miss, but we simply don't care about that. We go for the pizza, plain and simple. We always get it the same way, and it is always equally wonderful. The crust is perfect, the sauce is perfect, the spices are perfect. I'm hooked. Now we drive seven miles and circle until we find parking. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Every time.
