Welcome

This is the blog and public record of the Chicago Pizza Club. We eat a lot of pizza and share our thoughts on it as well as post any relevant pizza news we come across.

We invite you to post any comments on anywhere you have eaten under our review of that establishment. If you have any questions, please read the FAQs on the sidebar first to see if it has already been answered. Please note that we are at capacity and are not seeking new members. And finally, if you have a place you think we should try, have some other inquiry, or want to send us love/hatemail then please contact us at:

[Chicago Pizza News] Come for the Pizza, Stay for the Gambling

Salerno-Pincente Ristorante opened in December, but since it's in Hodgkins, word did not reach Chicago until today. The restaurant, which was opened by relatives of the owners of Salerno's, offers pizza as well as a full Italian menu.

What makes this place special is that under the same roof, but accessible through a separate entrance, is Trackside OTB, an off-track betting facility. There, you can order pizza while watching horsies run fast on the 60 high definition televisions. So if you know your ponies, or have good luck, you can easily win enough money to cover the cost of your pizza.
