Newyork style pizzeria offering whole pizzas and by the slice. Our dough is created using a combination of our sourdough and poolish then slowly aged for 72 hours using Organic Central Milling flour, Sicilian sea salt, and mineralized reverse osmosis water. We hand mill all of our fresh packed California tomatoes for the right consistency daily. We use a blend of California and Wisconsin whole milk mozzarellas. We bake our pizzas at higher temperatures for the perfect balance of char, crisp, and tenderness.

Pretty good NY style pizza.

I came here on a Sunday night with three people (1 child included). Definitely a kid friendly place. I got the chicken tikka masala pizza, it was good. My child got a pepperoni pizza.

I got a beer, ipa of some sort.

My partner got the Quattro Funghi Truffle, he enjoyed it.

What’s great about this place is the options for slices, you can get a variety of types or even a whole pizza. It’s good food. Very east coast.

We ordered takeaway as we are not frequent pizza eaters but decided to give this place a try. We prefer New York style pizza , and once I got past the shock of the price they charge for their pies (they are a bit steep) we decided it was worth the risk to try. We ordered the 16 inch margherita and when I tell you this is the best damn NY style we’ve ever had, I’m not lying. We ate it and said “okay I get why they charge so much now”. The crust is perfect and fresh, tomato sauce not super acidic and slightly sweet so very fresh, and overall flavor was amazing. Can’t afford it often but whenever we can and are in the mood for pizza, this is where we will go. 10/10

I love this pizza so much that I almost moved to the neighborhood just to be close by it. I love pizza just about any style (except for Detroit style) and this is my favorite spot for by the slice. They have original options and new flavors as well. The chicken bacon ranch is a must try. Even their salad is delicious. NY style was never my favorite but after Jimmy’s, it’s #2 (tavern style is #1). My wife is from NY and she says this is the closest to NY pizza she can get around here. We love this place so much that we even did part of our Engagement photos here. Every time we are even close to Jimmy’s, we make a stop. Also, if you like beer they always have amazing craft options in tap. I’m not a big beer drinker but sometimes I just order one to enjoy off the tap. If you’ve never been, do yourself a favor and try one of the best pizzas in the city!

They have tons of vegetarian pizza options, which was great. However, the taste was disappointing. The pizza was cold when we got it, which didn’t make it enjoyable. The white slice was the favorite with the classic cheese being the second favorite. The pizza was thin but lacked crispiness. Definitely think it would have been better if heated up properly.

Start by saying I was born and raised in Queens New York… Hands down the one of best New York style pizza in Chicago! I’ve been searching for this type of pizza throughout the city and finally found the closest thing to it. Pizza is crispy the texture of the dough is on point with no New York flop. At this point I’ve been here multiple times every time they’ve been consistent 100% recommend!

Met up with some friends here this past Sunday and will definitely be coming back. Their New York slice options are some of the best I’ve seen and the porchetta one I tried was delicious. It was busy but there was still a good amount of seating and I enjoyed the lively, family-friendly atmosphere of the place.

They have a decent selection of beers and several other menu items that looked really good including the big garlic knots and Buffalo wings. When I went up to grab my slice I saw an order of the wings coming out that looked perfectly crisp and piping hot. Plenty of staff were on hand to keep things moving and the long line was quick. Everyone I interacted with was really friendly too. I’ve been telling everyone I know who hasn’t already to check out Jimmy’s and I’m looking forward to stopping in more.

Finally tried out Jimmy’s they have a ton of options and love that you can get them by the slice. The only thing was that when we got the slices they were barely warm so they didn’t taste super fresh and i wish they had more sauce on the pizzas. If they were hotter I’d say this place is pretty solid

I’ve been coming to Jimmy’s since they had the old store on Lawrence and I’m just so glad they’ve only continued to get better as time goes on. As a New York native but Chicago transplant for almost 30 years, Jimmy’s takes me back to my childhood. The regular cheese is very very close to what you get at some of the best Brooklyn Pizza shops. The White Pizza is my absolute favorite ( I get it with homemade meatballs). You can’t customize the individual slices, so if you want extra toppings you need to order a full pie. This is not a full service restaurant. You order and the bring you the whole pie to your table or the slices to the pick up window. There are no servers to run you drinks. Just a fountain machine. Totally acceptable.

Pretty decent amount of seats and plenty of TVs to watch if you wanted to watch the game.

I love this place and I try to stop in when I’m near by for a slice.

You need this in your life right now. It’ll make everything ok for an evening. Trust me. Order the pizza.

Jimmy’s Pizza Cafe captures the essence of a traditional New York slice pizza in Chicago. The dough is thin enough to fold without breaking and is chewy yet crispy! They use quality ingredients and real cheese that leaves you wanting more without being too heavy or greasy. All their toppings were delicious but the table favorite was the Elotes slice. Grab a slice and thank me later.

If you have time to grab a seat enjoy the beautiful interior. We got pretty lucky and got here right at open on a Monday around 5pm. I highly recommend this place to those seeking genuinely good dough, real cheese, and a touch of mid‑century pizzeria charm. I will be back!

One of the best pizzas in a city known for pizza. We’ve loved Jimmy’s since it was at its original location on Lincoln. The pizza was so worth squeezing into the tiny parking lot. The old location is gone but the crust is great and the toppings, from the classics to the specials, never have disappointed. The best part is that you can get a slice to satisfy that craving without getting a whole pie.
