Five Boroughs Pizza - Des Plaines

Went here for the first time the other day with my friend. The pizza was absolutely delicious but the boneless wings were out of this world. The wings were hand-sliced and breaded, and coated in home made sauce. I've never had boneless wings as good as these. Definitely gonna be my go-to spot from now on.Dietary restrictions: Awesome halal beef-pepperoni pizza.

Came here at opening on the Monday after Superbowl weekend without realizing. I can imagine the chef, Shafi, would have hoped for a break, but he was super welcoming and gracious. It was just me and my two young kids and we ordered fries and a pepperoni pizza, which is a rare treat for us because we keep fairly strictly halal. The fries were fresh and delicious wedges and the pizza was excellent perfect NY style pizza that could folded and eaten mess free. Shafi was really nice to my well intentioned but loud kids, which wins big points with me. Since the small part of the menu that we sampled was so good, we absolutely intend to come back and try some wings, burgers, and other pizzas.

Best NY style pizza you'll get in the Chicago area! I was very impressed!

One of the best pizza I ever ate, just picked up half cheese half veggie pizza and both were amazing, the owner and son are every friendly. I would definitely order from there very soon.

In a surprising turn of events, the restaurant responded to my review in a negative way, attacking me for not taking it down. They suggested I should have called for a solution instead of leaving a one-star review. However, platforms like Google and Yelp are meant for honest feedback, both positive and negative, to help other customers make informed decisions. I have never experienced such an aggressive response to a review before. It's disappointing that the management could not handle criticism properly, resorting to attacking me based on my religion and values. They eventually deleted all their responses, but the damage was already done.
