Although many Chicagoans may be averse to pizza chains, Paulie Gee’s should be the exception. The Logan Square location of the Brooklyn-based pizzeria features some of the most experimental takes (and names) on pizza. The sweet-n-spicy Netflix and Chilee pairs a puckering pickled pineapple with a spicy chili crisp, while the Red Hot Cherry Jones mixes together prosciutto di Parma, dried Bing cherries and drizzles of Mike’s Hot Honey. And don't skip out on the Detroit-style squares, like the U.S. Pizza Cup Winner.

One of the newest contenders in the area, Pizza Matta has risen to the ranks as a take-out only spot specializing in make-your-own pizzas. Based on their “salad cancels out pizza” philosophy, each pizza option is designed to “exist harmoniously” with a salad. Although the build-your-own concept suggests diners have free rein, the restaurant’s selections steer any combination of sauces and toppings toward a delicious direction. Be sure to try the green base sauce made from pistachio and basil pesto.
