This Unassuming Illinois Pizzeria Serves Sausage Pizza So Good It Should Almost Be Illegal

Anthony Bourdain called one pan pizza the only deep dish he ever loved. That pie still comes out of a small, homey pizzeria on a quiet suburban street in Illinois. The crust edge gets so dark and caramelized that it looks almost burnt. It isn’t. That crunchy, cheesy rim is the whole point, and the sausage on top is a house blend.

Knoxville Ave. – will bid farewell after a final day on Thursday, Oct. 29, according to an announcement from the eatery. For its final day, food and drink at the storefront will be half off. “We’ll miss serving you in Peoria, but we’d love to welcome you at our original East Peoria location, which will remain open!” the business noted in an Oct. 26 Facebook post.

11 Peoria, Illinois Restaurants That Remain Crowded Without Paying A Dime On Advertising

A pizza joint that first opened in 1926 still closes its doors every Monday and Tuesday, and the crowds keep coming anyway. I love that kind of quiet confidence. In one river city in central Illinois, that same stubborn streak shows up all over the dinner map. One steakhouse hands you raw steaks to grill yourself, and a barbecue joint smokes its meat inside an old rail depot.

Name: Fairlane Diner Address : 300 Crossing Drive, Sherman Phone: 217-303-9330 Website : Fairlane Diner on Facebook . Credit/debit cards accepted: Yes Hours: 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day (winter hours) Entrée price range: $4.23-$15.40 Children’s menu: Yes. Kids under 12 get a free cone with their order from the children’s menu. My order : Fairlane Diner is a 1950s-themed eatery that offers appetizers, nachos, burgers, horseshoes, wraps, other sandwiches, salads, hot dogs, dinner entrees and a variety of ice cream treats. I had a Mushroom & Swiss Basket ($14.60), a double smashburger with mushrooms and cheese, plus a 20-ounce drink and a choice of fries or tater tots. The patties were nicely seasoned and steaming hot; the tots were super crisp. My companion ordered the Club Salad ($12.73), a blend of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, croutons, turkey, ham, two cheeses and bacon. It was a large salad, and the ingredients were fresh and crunchy. Extra points for the delicious raspberry vinaigrette dressing. Likes: The menu offers a few hard-to-find choices, such as a Chicago Dog Horseshoe and a fried bologna sandwich. Dislikes: None What would I order next time? Next time I won’t make the mistake of not ordering

2 IL pizzerias serve some of the best pies in US, report finds. Where to go

Two Illinois pizzerias earned spots on The Infatuation’s recent analysis of the best pizza places in America. Both are in Chicago and serve distinctly different styles. FULL STORY: These 2 Illinois pizza shops serve some of the best pies in America, report says Here are key takeaways: The Sept. 22 report from The Infatuation, “ The Best Pizza Places in America ,” named Pizz’Amici and Milly’s Pizza In The Pan among the nation’s best. The analysis did not numerically rank the restaurants. Pizz’Amici was praised for its tavern-style pie. The Infatuation described the crust as “impressively thin and crackery” with a bottom that is “a Dalmatian-spotted, charred beauty.” A 14-inch Chicago thin-crust pizza starts at $21. Milly’s Pizza In The Pan stood out for its pan-style Chicago deep-dish, with “zesty” tomato sauce and caramelized cheese on the crust. A cheese pizza starts at $20 for a 10-inch and $24 for a 14-inch. Pizz’Amici is at 1215 W. Grand Ave. in Chicago. Milly’s has two locations: 925 N. Ashland Ave. and 3409 N. Broadway in Chicago. Milly’s does not take reservations and makes a limited number of pizzas each day, so staff recommend placing an order online in advance. In a
