Johns pizzeria is delicious. Plus, they're one of the few nyc places that give you tap water if you ask for it.
Have y'all tried Pizza L'Vino on Waugh yet? I live very nearby and it's been our go-to ever since it opened. Very high quality ingredients.
I've actually never tried the one from Evanston. I've tried two different Giordano's in downtown Chicago. They were both pretty solid. I think there are a lot of hidden gems -- the tourist pizza place are good too but all the gems are overshadowed by places like Gino's East, Lou Maltnati's, Giordano's, etc.
Just came back from Pequod's (2nd time now that I've been). Blasphemous list that doesn't have Pequod's in the top 3 in the country, it really isn't debatable.
