Possibly the worst pizza I ever had. Flavorless. Canned mushrooms. Crust seemed prebaked and stale. It was cheap. That’s good. Husband got sausage and said it was not as good as before. This place is not going to make it. Cash only in a low population town… no dine in and no bar. inconsistent food quality. Not good.

Had some slices from the Easter Egg Hunt and we loved it! It was super delicious!
We just moved here not too long ago and usually travel to Rochelle to Alfono’s.
This place is but 5 min away! I think we found our new pizza place! I believe we are going try and go here instead of Alfono’s to pick up a couple pizzas for my son’s 3rd birthday next week!

A really nice place. The people working there were very friendly. I ordered a 10 inch pizza with Sausage, green pepper, and onions. It tasted good but, it looked like it had mostly green peppers on it, and very little cheese. But it was still good.

Little Italy is a new pizza joint right in downtown Paw Paw, in what I believe to be the same storefront as a prior pizza establishment. We had been wanting to try it since even before they opened their doors, but were held back by the “cash only” policy. It’s certainly not that I mind paying cash, just that I never have any. But we gathered up our money from egg sales and went for it on this past Saturday. The prices include tax, but even that said are higher than most pizza places you’ll find in small towns. That alone I don’t mind much, since options are also very limited in aforementioned small towns.
We picked up 3 pizzas of the 16″ size and the total was just over $75. They were all specialty pizzas from their menu, made on their standard “thin” crust. Let’s break them down.
Taco Pizza: I love a good taco pizza. I love a pretty good taco pizza. I believe this would’ve been a pretty good taco pizza if it were made as described in the menu. Ours was made without the tortilla chips, and the taco sauce was not included “on the side” (or anywhere else). There wasn’t much taco flavor to it. It was more like a cheeseburger pizza, in my opinion. It was OK, but not “pretty good”. A shame, as I believe some more taco seasoning in the ground beef and the expected tortilla chips would’ve really bumped it up.
Cheese Galore: I will call this one pretty good, but again not made per the description on the menu. It was missing one type of cheese, and had the addition of Ricotta not mentioned on the menu. Numbers were right, variety wasn’t.
Diavolo: This was the best one of the group. It would’ve received an upvote from “pretty good” to “good” if it weren’t for the lack of sauce. Dare I say, it was actually quite dry. I do understand that pizza in Italy has very little sauce, but this is certainly American pizza and needs to be made as such. Italian pizza is also brick oven fired and just an entirely different animal. You can’t take some of the Italian attributes and combine them with some of the American attributes. It just doesn’t work. Why? Well, because of the crust. Let’s get into that.
The “thin” crust is on the verge of too thick to be called thin. I would equate it to more of an American “traditional” crust. Italian pizza is very thin and bubbly, therefore needs very little sauce. This was not that, nor was I expecting it to be. But I was expecting an actual thin crust.
All in all, it’s worth a visit to try yourself. It’s a small town place, locally owned and operated. I love that about it. But I can’t frequent an establishment for that reason alone. I’ll likely give them a try again, but I’ll give them some time to make much needed adjustments before I do.
Service was good, the people are nice, and there is indoor dining. So please, give it a try… and maybe ask for a little extra sauce.
