Reviews for Parlor Pizza Bar River North in Chicago, IL
My son and I dined in before our once in a lifetime concert last night. The service was fantastic, and the food was amazing.... Our server was great. She even asked if there were allergies to relay to the kitchen. The pizza was delicious, and the cheesybread was so good, we're still talking about it. Read more
I have ordered many, many, many pizzas in my life, but never, until last night, have I had one arrive not cut into slices. ... That’s how my pizza from this place was delivered to my hotel last night, after over an hour wait. On a Wednesday night. After 10:00 pm, when we didn’t really have any other options. Whole, uncut, and cold. With pools of grease. I don’t meanwarm. I mean COLD. Once we finally figured out how to tear our cold pizza into chunks so we could eat it, and blotted thegrease off, it actually tasted pretty good. I’ll bet with any warmth at all, it would have been an outstanding pie. We alsoordered a small Caesar salad to split. Of course, they didn’t include any silverware *with an order delivered to a hotel* sowe had to eat our salad with our fingers and dip each piece of lettuce into the dressing. Again, had it been presentedproperly, it would have been a good salad. (Aside: menu claims it is a “Little Gem lettuce” Caesar salad”. It was not, itwas Romaine, which was fine, but still a bait and switch.) All in all, I might dine in at this place but I will never orderdelivery from them again. Too many other zillions of choices out there. The only reason I didn’t give a one star review isbecause the food actually tasted good, once we figured out how to eat it. Read more
The vibe and ambience of this place was great. We ordered their Kale and Artichoke Dip which was very tasty while the pizzas... that we had ordered not so much. We ordered their Honey Boo Boo and Tedy Bruschetta pizzas, which were both way sweeter than wehad expected. I still would like to give this place another shot and try their other pizzas. Read more
We ordered the fried calamari at the urging of the server as an appetizer. The portion was generous, the presentation great, but... overall the taste was bland and uninspiring. The pizza is Neapolitan-style, and the toppings piled on. We used four napkins toabsorb the copious amounts of grease that were pooled on one of the pizzas. The quality for the price isn’t great compared tothe almost endless other pizza options in Chicagoland. In the end, an order of calamari and two pizzas, no drinks, left us $90less than when we walked in. All in all, overpriced and underwhelming. Read more
First time dining here went great! Ordered two different pizzas, definitely loved the Case of Birria one. I had high hopes with... it and they met my expectations. Ordered a margarita pitcher for like $50. We had 3 choices and our server was nice enough togive us a small sample of each. Dessert is good too! The Go Nuts tacolato did it for me. Looking forward for the next visit! Read more
We searched for a pizza joint close to the Hotel Chicago. It just so happens that the parlor is across the street and I could... see it from our hotel room. We walked in and was seated immediately. Scanned with our phones for the Menu. We ended upordering one custom pizza and the Honey Boo Boo pizza. Both were fantastic. The crust was just right with the perfect amountof crunch but not overcooked. Great flavor on both, however the Honey boo boo did have an interesting smell, but it tastedgreat :) We decided to order some of the ice cream tacos for desserts. Wow! Over the top delicious. Avery ate more tonightthan I have seen him eat in a long long time. As a bonus, our waitress must have been over 10 times throughout the dinner toensure we didn't need anything. That is much appreciated. Read more
My wife and I wanted the infamous Chicago deep dish pizza but the didn’t have it. However, we were not disappointed. The... Pizza was great and it came very close to what I consider deep dish. The atmosphere was great. Was an upscale sports bar witha few private booths which we chose. You can reserve a table so that you can skip the line, great feature! Prices were veryreasonable and we are looking forward to visiting again on our next trip to Chicago. Read more
Food was great! Really fun atmosphere. Though cash-less. Really wanted to try the unique dessert but didn’t have enough cash... kind of frustrating. Indoor and outdoor seating. Read more
