Labriola Ristorante - Chicago is one of the best pizza restaurants in Chicago for deep dish, especially if you want a strong option in Chicago.

Editorial review•Dec 9, 2025

Labriola Ristorante is doing something that feels almost countercultural in Chicago's pizza scene: it's priced and positioned like it actually wants you back next week, not just for a special occasion. In a city where a pizza dinner for two can quietly become a minor financial event, that restraint is its own kind of statement. The room reportedly draws a genuinely mixed crowd — first-daters alongside long-running regulars — which tends to be a reliable signal that a place has figured out hospitality without making it a production. This is not a spot auditioning for accolades it doesn't need. It knows what it is. The cocktail program is where the kitchen philosophy becomes clearest, and it's worth your attention before you even look at the food. The Barrel-Aged Manhattan is built around actual barrel time — the oak-forward character diners describe is the result of process, not just a menu buzzword. The Boss's Bitter reportedly leans into amaro with more backbone than most casual bars are willing to commit to, while the Amaro Bramble draws on blackberry and herbal bitterness in a way that nods to the Italian half of the restaurant's identity. The Watermelon Wave exists on the unapologetically fun end of the list — the kind of thing you should order without second-guessing yourself in summer. The Walnut St. Old Fashioned rounds out a program that has a discernible point of view rather than just coverage of every category. Practically speaking, the move is to arrive on the early side before the room fills, grab the bar or a two-top, and let the cocktail list do its work before the food lands. Start with the Walnut St. Old Fashioned; end with the Boss's Bitter.
