Just had pizza from Burt’s Place in Morton Grove — and wow, absolutely incredible. Perfectly caramelized crust, gooey cheese, and that classic deep-dish flavor that hits every time. You can tell there’s real passion behind every slice.

Burts place is a super let down. Does not live up to the hype that's for sure. This review is from my experience before and after Burt. The recipe seems to have stayed the same. Sauce bland, sausage bland, and over cooked every time I've been there. Seems to have tasted the same from the first I went when Burt and his wife served me. I'm giving 2 stars for the upgrade inside and outside that the restaurant desperately needed. The service was slow because they cater to the regulars more than they do to anyone else and made it very obvious. In my opinion, I would choose Milly’s, peqouds and Lefty's kitchen over Burts Place any day! 100 % don't recommend.

Finally got to try Burt’s Place and it definitely lived up to the hype. The sauce at Pequod’s is still my favorite, but everything else here was excellent. The thicker, buttery pan-style crust and caramelized edges were delicious, and the cheese curds were some of the best I’ve ever had. The staff was great very friendly and attentive which made the experience even better. Service was quick, and everyone made us feel welcome. The patio was also a really nice touch and a perfect spot to enjoy a meal on a nice day. No wonder Anthony Bourdain called this the only deep dish pizza he ever loved. I would definitely go back.

Stopped in here with my buddy last night and it was phenomenal. Really solid pan pizza, similar style to Pequods in downtown Chicago but I actually think Burt’s was better! Nice crispy crust, good ratio of cheese to sauce and not overloaded with toppings. We also got some cheese curds and the portion was huge for the price point. Definitely worth checking out!

Wow where do i start ? im a newyorker born & raised that moved to Cleveland Ohio 20 plus yrs ago to Start our family and since then we started visiting Chicago a couple times a year because since my 1st visit i fell in love w the city , everything about it, the people the mixed cultures the food of course ,the land marks , everything about it reminds me of nyc yet you guys have your own pulse & vibe that is nothing like newyork. Truth be told is i learned fast that Newyork pizza & Chicago pizza is not something you can compare ,each city has there signature and they are not the same ,But wow where we blown away last year when we found Burts Place, my wife & I arrived hungry after our 5 hour trip that day so we were happy to be seated quickly and everyone was so friendly and were happy to
