I think we are ordering Roots later gonna leave a very nice tip and try not to be outside for more than 10 seconds. What do you get from there? I've been wanting to try that place for years. Our order today 12" w/ Sausage and Giard 12" Entente Korean Fried Chicken Pizza Mozz Sticks (we normally get the greek salad but are just making one at home) We might get wings from Great Sea too we will see |

I've been wanting to try that place for years. unless you're getting a taco pizza or specialty chef collab 'za, wouldn't bother. even their once-great salads are poo now. |

The chef collabs are usually solid, but the best thing about Roots by far is the mozzarella sticks.

The mozzarella sticks are amazing. As far as pizza goes, it hinges on whether you like the crust. It is thicker, chewy and has a malty sweetness, which I happen to like.
When things are back to normal, the Lincoln Square location is a great place to watch a game - long bar, lots of TVs and a usually above-average beer list.

I will concede their mozz sticks are top notch, but their za is not for me.

The most important part of a pizza is cutting it into very long strips so the cheese and toppings fall off when you pick it up and you get an unsatisfying bite every time, so I love Roots.

wow my most controversial take. The pizza was good. They use prob the best crumble sausage is the city and Korean fried chicken pizza rips. Also they are the best Mozz sticks. I like the strips because I can eat 8 of them and feel less guilty even if its more surface area than 3 normal slices of pizza or whatever

really craving some dope mozz sticks now, you guys
grocery store made the wise decision to stock a wider selection of home run inn frozas so we are the proud owners of (1) plain cheese, (1) sausage supreme, and (1) plain pepperoni. not the MOST exciting pizza toppings but we all know home run inn is basically the best you can bake so its nice to have a little variety.

We will occasionally toss our own pepperoni on the cheese ones since that’s almost exclusively what’s carried near us

Our pizza rotation is Fat Chris/Jimmys/Roots/(special occasion because you need 2 xl pizzas to feed two people) Pats and I think it really covers the bases sorry if this offends.

I also stan Table 87 for frozen pizza heavily but Homerun Inn is better. Table 87 also does giant frozen slices which is a great it's 1 am and I'm drunk and I really want to get delivery alternative.

though i am one to talk; despite the hysterically bad branding, these are not-terrible when microwaved which a huge achievement for any frozen food as far as im concerned. ive brought them to work and microwaved, and gotten drunk and thrown one in the oven...decent.  |

I like the strips because I can eat 8 of them and feel less guilty even if its more surface area than 3 normal slices of pizza or whatever i don't even really like bloody marys but rn i would kill to be able to go sit at roots for brunch and get a bloody with a mozz stick as a garnish. |

I had Aurelio's over the weekend for the first time in like 18 months and it was amazing as always. It's probably my favorite thin crust in the entirety of Chicagoland. I am prepared to go down on this hill.
