You'll be about a 7-minute walk to the flagship Gino's East at 633 N. Wells. You'll be even closer to a Lou Malnati's (439 N. Wells). I prefer Gino's but only by a slim margin. They're both pretty good.

Michael's on Broadway, just north of Irving. Both their thin & thick crust are awesome!

Maybe I'm one of few- but I love My Pi on Clark! Their deep dish is the best! Thin crust: Edwardo's. Also, I only eat spinach on my pizza and these places just seem to do it best- not too choppy and not to big.

Just found a new contender for both best thin crust and best stuffed: Pete's Pizza on the 3700 block of n. Western. It's part of the Suparossa group but Pete's is better somehow. They are a close contender for Art of Pizza in the stuffed category but AoP still wins because of their impossibly buttery crust... now I'm going to have to venture back down to Hegewisch to Doreen's and see if they still stand up as my favorite thin-crust or if Pete's has dethroned them for the title.

No way the Pizza Hut in Westmont is far superior.

Try Gipettos in Oak Park. I think its off lake & oak park ave. They have a fantastic stuffed pizza, and the atmosphere and pizza is more homemade opposed to Giordanos.

Meh, they're OK. I've never been incredibly impressed with their food.
