The food was incredible!!!! Their pizza was crunchy and flavorful and best of all, our kids were obsessed. It's hard to find a place where all 4 will happily eat so this was perfect! The wings were delicious as well. We ordered 6 plain and my kids thought they had great flavor with nothing on them. We also ordered 6 with the sweet and spicy sauce and it was fantastic. They weren't too spicy but absolutely full of flavor.
We sat inside during our time there due to rain but overall, we had a great experience. We had a large group of 7 and were served extremely well and fast. A personal favorite of mine that we ordered was the Brussel Sprout pizza. It was so unique and tasted amazing. I would totally recommend!
Dined here while visiting Chicago. I am an avid home pizza maker and will always prioritize a stop while traveling to enjoy someone else’s passion. This place is next-level. This is phenomenal dough, well-fermented and baked deeply. The pizza’s crumb was chewy and was encased by a lovely crackling crust. We enjoyed the Rita, the cup & char roni and the fennel pie. All were topped thoughtfully. I know this place gets worldwide acclaim, and I felt it is so well-deserved. Don’t skip!
Love this place! Nestled along an inlet of the lake in River East, Robert's is a fantastic spot for great pizza in a beautiful location. Whether you're dining in or ordering takeout, the experience is smooth and enjoyable. Ordering for pickup was quick and easy, making it a convenient option when you're craving a quality pizza. The pizza itself is excellent. I especially liked the crust, which has a perfectly thick and crispy outer edge paired with a thinner base that gives each slice a great texture. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, making it an ideal place to gather with friends, spend time with family, or even meet new people. Between the delicious pizza, scenic setting, and inviting vibe, Robert's is definitely a place worth visiting again and again.
Experience was great. It's on river east, not a well populated (dare I say hidden gem) ck park sandwich was amazing. The "Rita" and the "Carne" pizzas were fantastic. Adult drinks were solid. The mocktails looked so good I wanted to have them with alcohol. 😁
