A Chicago Stuffed Pizza Icon Opens in the South Loop After 25 Years In

One of Chicago’s most-venerable spots for stuffed pizza, The Art of Pizza, has opened a second location, as they debuted earlier this week in the South Loop. This location offers thin crust, pan, and Chicago-style stuffed pies at 727 S. State St. The original location in a West Lakeview strip mall has received numerous awards since opening about 25 years ago and sells pizza by the slice.

The South Loop location offers a scaled-back menu. Besides pizza, there’s salads and footlong subs — just like in Lakeview. Items like ribs and fried shrimp aren’t available at the new location. It will also sell slices.

Check out the menu below. It’s open a half hour later than the Lakeview location, so night owls have another option.

The Art of Pizza, 727 S. State St., (312) 877-5335, open 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. with the dining room closing and last order taken at 10:30 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday; 11 a.m. to midnight with the dining room closing and last order taken at 11:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
