A local pizzeria is working on a new location.
Pazza Pizza is planned for 1158 W Taylor Street in Chicago’s Little Italy neighborhood. The space between Wine on Taylor and Ralph’s Cigars was formerly occupied by the ramen and bubble tea shop Tai Chi.
This will be the second location for Pazza Pizza, which can currently be found at 1543 N Sedgwick Street, about four miles away from the upcoming new one.
The menu includes hand-tossed, thin-crust pizza available by the slice or whole pie in varieties like arugula prosciutto, buffalo chicken bacon ranch, caprese, and classic options like cheese or pepperoni. Calzones, wings, salads and desserts round out the offerings.
The new location on Taylor Street, striving to be a “go-to for good vibes and great pizza,” is expected to have a bar with more than 15 draft beers and seltzers on tap, plus a comfortable seating area upstairs.
A recent job posting indicates that the restaurant is seeking cashiers, pizza cooks and line cooks for the new location.
“We’re opening a new location and we’re looking for a strong team to help us bring great pizza to Little Italy,” according to the posting.
