"Boka Restaurant Group has reimagined a key River North spot as a pizzeria, tapping two of its talented chefs, Chris Pandel (Swift & Sons) and Lee Wolen (Boka), to create a tavern-style and a thin-crust artisan option. There’s also a stellar gluten-free thin-crust pie. Expect a casual atmosphere with top-notch service. This is the former GT Fish & Oyster space, and the space closes at 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, so there’s still a nightlife vibe. But don’t tell the parents who show up early with their kids. Zarella is really trying to please a large swath of customers." - Ashok Selvam
