Don’t miss this special place. Plenty of locals have lived in Chicago their entire life and have been to the Lincoln Park Zoo dozens of times, but have never been to this beautiful Hidden Gem. It is an oasis in the city, and after reading how much Alfred Caldwell sacrificed to see this project to completion after the Great Depression hit, I'm even more grateful to him and his family for giving us this beautiful architectural landscape feature.

Food scene
Created by attorney Albert H. Beaver in 1972, Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder has since been a Lincoln Park landmark serving up their unique pizza pot pies. Pizza pot pie? Yes, pizza pot pie. Kind of like chicken pot pie but better, because it’s pizza, and pizza makes everything better. While the pizza pot pies are the star of the show, they are also serving some exceptional oven grinders on homemade Italian loafs.
Located at the bottom of a three-story brick structure on Clark just west of the Lincoln Park Zoo, this place has some Chicago history. Settling into one of the big wood booths in this dimly lit, below ground restaurant is like steeping back into the gangster squad days of Al Capone. Part of that feeling may stem from the fact that across the street is the spot of the infamous St. Valentines Day Massacre, where Capone’s men gunned down seven members of a rival gang, and rumor has it used Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder’s building as a lookout point. When it comes to your dining experience at Oven Grinder, make yourself comfortable, hunker down, and prepare to go to war, with your food at least.

“Certain meals are so memorable, they’ll inspire you to drop everything, turn to the person beside you, and suddenly say, without context, “Remember those roasted carrots?” That person will then immediately stop what they’re doing, put down their scalpel, and reply, “I was just thinking about those.” This is the kind of one-time-I-scored-four-goals-in-a-single-game nostalgia you’ll have after eating at Galit in Lincoln Park. Their Middle Eastern food raises the bar, and after going here, it’ll be a while before you’re talking about anything else.”
