Middy Mags Pizzeria

This is a great family pizza place. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great. Quite convenient for Metra riders looking for carry out as well!

Hahahahaha
Will try again.
This review does not pertain to employment issues, so it is not a breach of Unilocal Guidelines in that regard or any other.
I was not going to write this review, however, Friday night the big cook came out from the kitchen and challenged me to write a Unilocal review. Then he threatened me.
I digress.
Busiest night I have ever seen was tonight. For the record I have always wanted this place to succeed and I have never said anything bad about it.
The pizza is good.
First timers are confused, because they aren’t told how things work.
Front line staff is always nice, but they need a script that explains how things work.
While I was waiting to order, I complimented the order guy that is was nice to see the paper letter signage taken down. It looked temporary and tacky.
That it when the cook came out in a rage. He could not tell me why he was so angry
Big opportunity Monday; Pi Day.
But I just realized you are closed Monday, oh well.
Keep up the good work.
Look forward to my next visit.

Tried this place out for the first time and was sooo incredibly pleased! From the moment we came in and were greeted by Mariam the pretty girl at the front desk. The restaurant was very cute inside and also very clean! Had the cheese sticks, fries and onion rings for apps and they were delicious but the real highlight was the pizza! We ordered the cheese for the kids and the specialty pizza «the godfather II» the crust and sauce (which make the pizza in my opinion) were fantastic!
We asked to talk to the manager who happened to also be the chef (Harry) and he was was wonderful! So sweet to our kids and just an all around nice guy!
This is defiantly going to be a new family favorite dinner spot!
They also had party rooms that were very nice. I would plan a celebration there in the future for sure!

Updating the rating, I have been there two more times since my first review because the pizza is that good. I didn’t know the drill about the sit down option and was expecting something else. Excellent pizza, maybe the best in Glenview. I hope they establish themselves with clientele. Giving 5 stars for thier pizza.

I have ordered takeout from here twice. The kids love the mozzarella sticks and the chicken tenders. The pizza was pretty good too. Both times the phone was answered promptly, order process was smooth, and food was ready for pick up on time. The restaurant area really looks nice and comfortable for a family outing.

A hidden gem behind (east) of the train station at the corner of Grove and Depot in Glenview, this pizzeria has some of the best thin crust pizza in the Chicago area. The sauce is so delicate; it doesn’t overwhelm the pie (I sure wish I had the recipe) and the pizza crust is nice and crisp. The salads are super fresh. The dining room is bright and cheerful, and the entire restaurant (including the washrooms) are SPOTLESS. We love coming here.

Finally, Glenview now has some good pizza. Their thin crust is amazing! Try the Godfather, it’s the best!

Being long time Glenview residents we were excited to see a pizza place open up in the old location of The Noodle. We have already made Middy Mags a once every other week dinner spot for our family. Sorry the other 2 Fridays of the month belong to another famous pizza place I’ll just say the initials LM’s. So after a few good experiences we seemed to come on an off night. I ordered like we normally do and sat in the same spot
as we normally do. My son and I meet my wife as she comes in on the 6:15 every Friday. But tonight it just didn’t go right. After about waiting for 35+minutes and seeing other people get their pizzas before us and it was clear they ordered way after us. I started to wonder. Finally a cook came out of the kitchen and explained that our pizza was given to the wrong table and it would be put in a couple of minutes. That turned into another 10 minutes. When we did get it a quarter of the pie was missing and the explanation was that he had a little problem with the pizza. Unbelievable! Getting a little long winded here so I’ll cut it off. Long story short. The food is good but management failed at customer service and should have taken control of this situation. Management never came to the table to apologize but walked right by several times. We’ll give you another chance because we believe in local businesses. So next time around if you run into a situation like this please make sure the customer walks away with a smile on their face and belly full of pizza.

Tried this neighborhood place for the first time with my kids and we really liked their food. We ordered The Godfather pizza which was amazing… loaded with different kinds of meat and fresh vegetables, the thin crust was made and cooked just right, and the sauce was not too light nor too heavy. We also ordered the Philly Cheesteak sandwich which was also filled with very tender meat and a side of crispy fries. I ordered the Basil Chicken Panini and I loved it! Light pesto sauce, grilled chicken, cheese and fresh vegetables in a delicious sourdough bread. My daughter loved it as well! The place is clean, the servers and all the other staff members were friendly and attentive. They also sell a few brands of beer which you can purchase when you order and pay at the counter. The food will be served fresh and hot on your table! We’ll definitely be back to try their other specialty pizzas and sandwiches:)

I love thin crust pizza and this is on of the best. I have had a few different pizzas and have enjoyed them all. I wish they would add a little more ingredients.

For someone who prefers pan or stuffed crust pizza, I was blown away by this exceptional thin crust pizza. The ingredients were fresh, the place was clean and organized, and Mike the owner was appreciative of our service. The owner thought of everything including having a station set up with take out containers in case you don’t actually finish your pizza. Are there actually people who can walk away without eating the whole pizza? Go try it for yourself, and I bet you will leave your plate clean! Mangia, mangia! Great job, Middy Mags!

Finally someone decided to take over the property that was empty for so long. A very good neighborhood pizza place. They exceeded my expectations. We tried a thin pepperoni and mushroom. Fresh ingredients and a thin but still chewy crust. Not overdone like a cracker and not under done like doughy bread. Next time we’ll have the pan for a comparison. Its very clean and friendly. We met Mike, one of the guys in charge who actually served our pizza. These guys should do well. We’ll go back.

Fantastic pizza and great service! Best thin crust in Glenview! Friendly environment and great location by the Glenview metra station.

If I could give 2.5 starts I would. We were going by on our way home and looked for Unilocal,almost 5 stars few reviews, we thought was worthwhile to try. Seemed little expensive for what we ordered, but we like to eat well so we expect for the better. The girl on the counter was nice when we told her it was our first time. There was few people in the place. The layout of the place is kind of strange, they can do better. When the salad arrived, we told the young boy that delivered to the table that we didn’t have cluttery so we asked him and very shy he said it was «over there» indicating with his hand to around the corner where we couldn’t even see, we were kind of disappointed on the service since they were not too busy and given by the question he was not the most service oriented answer for new customers, and new restaurant, he could have indicate and bring it too, oh well. The salad was plain good. The pizza looked good but, was not crunchy and since had veggies these got juicy and pizza got soggy too. We didn’t complained just ate it and enjoyed it, but thought we could have paid same or less for a so much better pizza and probably better service, and beer too. I am not sure we will be back. They don’t have pastas, serve mostaccioli would not hurt!

I got take out from here and WOW was it good! We got the Chief Justice pizza which has sausage, pepperoni, pepperoncini peppers, garlic, and tomato. The flavors went so well together and the crust is phenomenal! We also got the Greek salad which was very delicious as well. The salad dressing was definitely homemade which is always a plus. When we went to pick up the pizza, we loved the way it was decorated on the inside. Would definitely go back there to eat in. Also, the service was very quick and friendly. I would recommend this pizza to all my friends and family. I love supporting new local businesses and this place is definitely worth it!

Greek salad, Southwest Chicken salad and think crust pizza were all phenomenal!

Thin and crispy crust in a very casual environment. They also have bottled Sprecher soda which is a plus

Excellent pizza and sandwiches! The pizza is thin and crispy! They have deep dish but didn’t try it. Excited to have a great new pizza place in glenview!

New Restaurant in downtown Glenview. Awesome pizza with crispy thin crust and fresh ingredients. Great sandwiches and salads too. My favorite is the Greek Salad. Don’t forget to grab a chilled cookie on the way out! Great atmosphere with exceptional service. «Hands down» the best place for pizza in Glenview!

Excellent pizza, super thin and crispy crust, just the way I like it. It was not over-​sauced and had the perfect amount of toppings. Absolutely delicious! They also have sandwiches and salads that look great. I will be back, for sure.
