text: I am not a pizza snob To me Pizza Hut Papa Johns Dominos etc is sufficient to satisfy my pie cravings Thus I am usually hesitant to hit up actual pizza restaurants Unless the place offers personal pizzas you have to negotiate toppings with whoever you are sharing with And I am sure we all have that friend who thinks anchovies is a must have On top of that pizza restaurants are comparably overpriced compared to their takeoutdelivery siblingsnnWith that in mind Grimaldis serves up some pretty good pizza but to me fails to impress Their ingredients are for the most part better than their chain counter parts The pizzas are not greasy or heavy in fact they only seem to have thin crust pizzas no deep dish for chitown peeps They are a bit overpriced for what you get and considering that they do not offer any custom or specialties pizzas I am left wondering I just overpaid for a simple pepperoni pizzannI wish they had some more stand out ingredients or maybe a signature combo I have been to this spot a few times and the service is pretty average The patio is a nice touch but the restaurant itself is pretty small Call ahead on the weekends as most pizza joints have a slower turnover time and get packed on busier days
