Welcome to La Crosta Woodfire Pizzeria Italiana. Here we share our vision of authentic Italian traditional pizza, which dates back to the Greco-Roman period and starts with fresh, high quality ingredients. Many of them are flown in from Italy, including our tomatoes, flour and burrata cheese. Our dough is handmade daily. In fact, La Crosta in Italian means “the crust” and we believe our fluffy crust is the best in the business. In all, I’ve created a comfortable restaurant for you and your friends to spend time together and create new memories.

My only complaint is that I was unable to add spinish to my cheese and tomato sauce calzone. A better option for this dish is to use fresh tomatoes making it more like a caprese calzone. It is surprising that a restaurant that specializes in pizza does not offer spinach as an ingredient that can be added to either pizzas or calzones.

The best pizza in Chicago! Try the burrata and the artichoke as appetizer. The food is 5 stars. Service is outstanding and the location is perfect! You won't find a pizza like this:)

My favorite pizza place in Chicago. If you’re looking for a great Italian style pizza, this is the perfect place. (And honestly their appetizers, cocktails, and desserts are fantastic as well.)

Very good thin crust pizza!
Pepperoni was perfectly spicy and the truffle/artichoke white was also delicious.
Will be back soon!

Love the choices of white and red sauce pizzas...so many creative options! The fig and prosciutto (red sauce) was outstanding. The little dots of fig jam add just the right about of sweetness.

La Crosta Woodfire Pizza – come hungry or come foolish.
This isn’t your grab-a-slice kind of joint. You’re ordering the whole pie, and trust me, you’ll thank yourself halfway through and hate yourself by the last bite—in the best way. The pepperoni pizza? Unreal. Charred edges, perfect cheese melt, that crispy cup pepperoni action... basically a wood-fired masterpiece.
Ambiance hits that sweet spot between date-night cozy and “I could crush three pies and not feel judged.” Service was sharp—attentive without being clingy.
La Crosta is absolutely worth the trip. Just don’t show up thinking you’ll “just try a little”—these pies demand respect.
