"One thing this list makes abundantly clear is that Chicago isn’t just a deep dish city—despite what the rest of the world thinks. Robert’s in Streeterville showcases this fact with its yeasty, airy, slightly crispy thin-crust pies. And this place has a variety of options to choose from, like fennel with pepperoni and honey, and sausage with caramelized onions. Plus, they have a lovely patio on the water that has a view of the Ferris wheel at Navy Pier." - nick allen, adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor
"Robert’s is located on the Ogden Slip, which might make you feel, for a brief moment, that you have a boat. You don’t, but the excellent pizza with its flavorful, airy, slightly crispy thin crust will help you forget that. You’ll find a variety of toppings, from fennel with pepperoni and honey to sausage with caramelized onions." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"Watch the boats coast by on the Chicago River from the dog-friendly patio at Robert’s Pizza and Dough Co. while spending 90 minutes sipping mimosas for $30 with the purchase of an entree such as chilaquiles or a brunch pizza topped with smoked salmon, capers, shallots, and dill. The deal is offered from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, along with $14 mimosas, $15 bloody marys, and mimosas. Choose takeout and order online." - Sam Nelson
"Pizzeria Portofino gets a lot of attention for being a very beautiful (and absurdly busy) spot right on the river. Go a little further north and eat on the quiet patio at Robert’s Pizza And Dough Company instead. It’s a great pizza place on the Ogden Slip that also has a lovely view of the water. You can even see the Ferris wheel at Navy Pier. Order one of the specialty pies with a flavorful, airy, slightly crispy thin crust, and use all that extra time you would have spent waiting for a table at Portofino pretending that you own a boat." - veda kilaru, john ringor
"Chicago isn’t just a deep dish city, as evidenced by Robert’s. The highlight at this pizza place is the flavorful, airy, slightly crispy thin crust. You'll find a variety of pies on their brunch menu, like smoked salmon and huevos rancheros, along with unlimited mimosas and dishes like chilaquiles. Plus, they have a lovely patio on the water that has a view of Navy Pier. The Deal: Bottomless mimosas for $30 (with purchase of entrée, 90-minute limit)" - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor
