![]() Again, I have to note to be wary of delivery if you like your cheese more melty because the time it spent in transport messed with the texture a bit and made it less oozy than I would have liked. What I most appreciated was how the four cheeses - mozzarella, parmesan, asiago, and provolone - did not fuse into one flavor, but rather shone through individually in each bite. Despite going into it ready to criticize, I’m pleased to say Billy Bricks’ “Quattro Formaggi” - four cheeses, for those not fluent in Italian - ($15) did not disappoint, and we could taste the thought that went into choosing the ingredients. Dare I say it actually may be the hardest type to get right because of its simplicity and not being able to mask its blandness with various toppings. I’m far from a pizza connoisseur, but it’s pretty easy to judge a place by the quality and effort they put into their cheese pizza. Overall, with Billy Bricks’ signature wood-fired crust and standout toppings, this pizza was unique and one I’d definitely have again. My one complaint would be that the artichokes were a bit too large and spread out for my liking, and I didn’t love not being able to get the full artichoke flavor in every bite. For someone who enjoys artichokes, they complimented the pesto nicely and were a unique addition to what would have otherwise been a slightly boring pizza. ![]() Then there was the other star of the pizza: the artichokes. However, the flavor and type of cheese were suited well to each pizza, and other than slight texture issues, I had no complaints about it. The cheese on this one and the others was not as melted as it could have been, but that might have been due to getting it delivered instead of eating in the restaurant. The pesto replaced marinara as the sauce of the pizza and added a pleasant basil flavor to the slice. It was not something I’ve seen before, and as a vegetarian, I was excited to experiment outside of the veggie and cheese pizzas I usually end up with. ![]() Being a big pesto lover, and a pretty strong artichoke fan, I had high hopes for this pizza. The first pizza I tried was the artichoke pesto with grilled peppers pizza ($15) for a pizza serving one to two people. Nonetheless, a solid choice for bread-lovers and a great price for those not looking to break the bank. The marinara sauce was cold, however, and probably would’ve complimented the bites better if it was warm. They were pretty basic, but done well and at a good price. Crispy and buttery, they tasted like a perfectly done pizza crust. With a large menu consisting of appetizers, pastas, sandwiches, salads, desserts, and of course pizza, there was a lot to choose from, which I appreciated.įor a starter, we tried the bread bites, which came with eight pieces and a marinara sauce ($4). With the closure of Fireside pizza, a new establishment, Billy Bricks, has opened.īilly Bricks offers indoor dining however, my family enjoys the convenience and safety of delivery on a Friday night, so we decided to try the new restaurant from the comfort of our kitchen. Even with LaGrange’s proximity to the quality pizza places Chicago boasts, we have our fair share of well-loved spots in our own downtown area.
