Paisans is an Italian word for friends, but to us, it also means family. Family has always been at the center of Paisans’ beginning and the driving force behind its success. Paisans Pizza was started by Luigi, an immigrant to the United States, in 1985. In a small corner store in Cicero, Illinois, Luigi started making pizzas out of a household kitchen oven. Shortly after, Luigi was joined by his son Pete, fulfilling orders one at a time using hand-written tickets hanging from clothespins in their tiny kitchen.

Pete spent the next 30 years expanding the business, while also refining the Paisans brand and menu. He did this while always remembering what got us here: our famous pizza and award-winning wings.

Staying true to the idea of family, Pete brought in his boys to help him take the Paisans concept to the next level. Mentoring his sons in their new roles, Pete involves them in every aspect of the restaurant business.

    As always the food and service was delicious but the only thing I had an issue with was that we ordered a bowl of chili and it was cold then they sent it back and still was cold so then we changed it to soup and then it was hot so I’m not sure why they couldn’t get it right but like always the pizza and service was great.

    First time here and we will be back. Pizza was awesome and the wings and eggroll appetizers were a great place to start. Our server was very attentive and efficient

    The food and drinks were delicious and the portion sizes were ample. We made a reservation and were happy we did so because it was crowded. We’ll definitely be back.

    Chicken breast on focaccia looked great . However the chicken itself was terrible . Rubber like and sour. Family was content with the other items so we didn’t say anything which I regret. It was just that bad

    It’s a nice environment. I believe some servers are still learning. The person who brought out our food, reached over my friend’s plate to set a plate on the table and his sleeve brushed her food. It also states chicken wings are market price…that took me by surprise. The margaritas are served in 8oz rock glasses versus a margarita glass. Overall it was a nice experience.
