- JJoeChicago / Illinois •7 reviews5.0Dined todayIt was a fun family outing to Professor Pizza. The menu has a variety of pizza styles from which to choose and the very hospitable staff did a great job coaching us in our ordering. This allowed us to try two types of pizza - cracker and Detroit - without over ordering. We look forward to going back!More infoProfessor Pizza - Old TownPrice: Expensive• Pizzeria• Old Town•4.4

- SsandraChicago / Illinois •3 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 11, 2024I love Broken English and have been many times. Unfortunately this time around the tacos tasted different and didn’t have the flavor and richness they normally do. Not sure if it was due to a change or recipes or cooks but it was a bit disappointing. Everything else is always great, nice atmosphere and staff. I will be back and hopefully the food is back to normal next time I go.More infoBroken English Taco Pub-Old TownPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Old Town•4.7
