If I could give above 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat.
If you are a TRUE born & raised Chicago native, like myself, The Pizza Man is the IT, hands down. From the restaurant vibes, carpeted floors, 90s arcade games, and Chicago sports on every wall, to the menu itself. If you’re looking for a beef, dog, or pizza, look no more, because this is the place for it.
I moved to KC 5 years ago, and when I walked in, I felt like I was HOME. Absolutely incredible.

I used to come here frequently up until a recent food intolerance diagnosis. Their pizza is amazing. Thin sliced and one of the best in the KC area. Small pizza joint/hole in wall, which you have to appreciate when everyone is striving for the largest businesses. During the lunch hour, the offer pizza slices of you’re in a hurry and want to get in/out. Support this family operation, you wont look back!

This place is an absolute hidden gem. If you’ve never had an authentic Chicago Italian beef you must try this place. The owners are so friendly and service is great. Highly recommend!

Get the beef w/ cheese! Besides being the best Italian beef in KC metro, owner operated and Mike isn’t messing around back there. The dogs are top notch too

If you’re just looking for great pizza and amazing sandwiches, this is the place. The hotdogs are good, but are overshadowed by the formers. Only downfall that I have experienced is how early they close up shop. Still, always a goto in my home when it comes to monthly places to eat.

It’s a very unassuming restaurant, but the Chicago dogs and Italian beef were absolutely incredible. Hours can be a little wonky, but it’s a family run establishment so just call ahead if you’re wanting to make sure. 8/10 stars, would highly recommend.

From Chicago born and raised. We moved here about a year ago and can’t believe I haven’t been here yet, until today! We were craving a good ole Italian beef! Well…we found our spot! They have great Vienna beef’s, polish sausages, pizza, and Italian beefs! That is a hard thing to find in KC. The owner was very kind, and it was nice reminiscing about Chicago and seeing all the sports memorabilia in the restaurant. The kids were happy, we all loved the food and will definitely be going back soon!

I’ve driven by this pizza place for years and haven’t stopped in until today. I’m kicking myself SOOO hard right now for being such a fool. AMAZING PIZZA. ABSOLUTELY 100% authentic Chicago tavern style thin cracker crust pizza. OMG. So good.
I grew up in a little town in the middle of Nebraska that had ONE pizza joint – owned and operated by a nice old man from from Chicago. That place has been closed for a few years now and I haven’t been able to find anything close since. I’m now pushing 60 and eating this pizza brought a flood of memories from my childhood when I would stop in every afternoon and deliver the newspaper after school and beg Papa Ray for a slice.
Ordered the Sink and substituted extra onion for the green olive and swapped sauerkraut for the pineapple.
I can die happy now.
I will so be back.
Never change a thing, please.

This is your local authentic chicago style cracker thin crust pizza. I grew up in the north suburbs of Chicago and been searching for 10 years in Omaha and I recently moved to KC a few months ago. This cracker thin crust pizza is cut into SQUARES and is so delicious! I also got an Italian beef sandwich and it was probably the best one I’ve ever eaten. It really is reminiscent of my childhood pizza and Italian beef from Chicago! This place isn’t fancy. It was clean with ample seating. They have canned pop, use paper plates, and plastic silverware. It’s the perfect local pizza shop! We will be back!
