A slice shop has always been a dream of pizzaiolo, Tony Scardino. That dream has become a reality in the West Town neighborhood of Chicago, IL.
Now open for carryout, delivery, and dine-in, our newest concept is built for grabbing a quick slice, settling in for a whole pie, or taking Professor Pizza wherever the night leads.
We’re now open for dine-in/carryout/delivery in the West Town neighborhood of Chicago. From our thin and crispy cracker crust to thick, pillowy Sicilian and Detroit styles, every pie is made with premium ingredients and the same care that’s earned Professor Pizza its loyal following. We’re thrilled to welcome you into our new West Town location for a quick slice or a few pies with friends & family. See you soon!
This is the kind of pizza joint your parents or older cousins always talk about missing from where they were kids that you can now experience.The spot has a cool, laid back vibe that fits the neighborhood. It's a comfortable place to grab a slice or hang out with friends. The team hustles hard when it gets busy, and you can tell they're trying to do things right.If you're in West Town and craving pizza, I'd say stop by. Definitely worth it.

Pizza was peak per usual. The professor never misses. Also loved the decor! Very well curated and cozy/personal feeling without dropping the color pallet of the spot I’m used to. Can’t wait to stop by and grab a slice again soon!

Had a great visit to Professor pizza slice and pie on Grand Ave. The pizza was amazing and the space was really cool. It’s also BYOB at the moment so that was great for me and my group. Cheers!

Fantastic, Fun, and GREAT Food! Looks like a Soprano style slice house dropped into the original Little Italy of Chicago's West side...

Had the best time grabbing a slice on the go!!! The music was cool and the retro theme reminds me of being a kid grabbing a slice after school!! Love a classic pepperoni and cheese slice.

This pizza and pizzeria is an awesome vibe I love the retro feel to it and the variety of pizza you get here is unlike anywhere else. The “white pie” is one of my favorites but you can’t go wrong with the pepperoni either! Try it grandma style deluxe with the whipped ricota and hot honey 🔥

Came here mid day last fall while visiting and haven’t had a better tavern style pizza since. Perfect crunch and great service. The aperol spritz hit just right too.

Excellent service from Michael. He helped me navigate an order with a weird delivery time on the toast app. Very professional and made sure I got what was ordered in a timely manner. 10/10!
