Best Takeout Food Restaurants in Harwood Heights

"I’m partial to calling Chicago’s deep-dish pizza a glorified casserole with cheese, tomato sauce, and crust. I’m biased though because aside from a rivalry over whose buildings are the tallest, New York and Chicago tend to have very different ideas over what “pizza” really is. My biases aside, I can’t say “no” to a ton of cheese and a crusty edge no matter how thick that slice may be…"

Many of the dishes are created with house-made seitan, a product made out of wheat gluten."

"As the Loop becomes crowded with healthy eateries peddling kale and brown rice, there’s something comforting about this stalwart continuing to sling oversize subs piled high with multiple kinds of meat and spicy giardiniera.

Oh, and watch out: The hot giardiniera attacks with force."
