Help, We Need Good Pizza In Venice, Florida
I'll admit it, Palermo's has spoiled me. Having grown up in Oak Lawn, I was a frequent consumer of the delicious food which Palermo's serves, so I was used to eating what I consider to be the best pizza anywhere. Having been to 48 out of 50 states, I feel qualified to make that statement. I have recently moved to Florida and am sorry to say that there is not a pizza in this state worthy of sharing a plate with Palermo's pizza.    [30 Jan 2003 23:51:38]

Palermo's Fan From Way Back When
We used to go to the original location on 63rd Street, west of Kedzie. Then, it was Oak Lawn. Now I live in Manteno and still travel 50 minutes north to Oak Lawn.    [11 Feb 2003 14:33:34]

One of the Best Italian Restaurants in Oak Lawn
Palermo's is a very good Italian restaurant, which has many different pasta dishes, entrees, not to mention pizza! They have authentic Italian dishes, but they aren't overly heavy or rich like some restaurants make them. They definitely don't suffer in the taste category either. I have some friends coming in from Wisconsin this weekend, and they requested Chicago pizza. I told them we HAVE to go to Palermos.

This restaurant is definitely a place to try if you don't know where to go for Italian food in the area of Oak Lawn, IL.    [19 Feb 2003 15:40:46]

I live in Virginia, and every time I go home, the first thing I want is Palermos. Simply the best pizza in the USA.    [18 May 2004 16:13:13]

I grew up in Oak Lawn, too....
Yet I had never eaten at Palermo's. When we took our daughter to see the sights in Chicago this past August, we looked for a place to eat...and ended up at Palermo's. No neon sign, very plain appearance, so what a surprise to find a GREAT restaurant--genuine Italian food and a very welcoming atmosphere. They couldn't have been nicer hosts--and the pizza was fantastic. Strongly recommend this place.    [18 Sep 2004 08:54:45]

Best Pizza I've Found
I lived in the south side of Chicago when I was young and grew up on Parlermos's Pizza. I moved away 15 years ago and I still make a yearly pilgrimage to Oak Lawn for some Palermo's pizza no matter where I'm living. They have a great selection of other Italian dishes too. I still can't find a place that outdoes Palermo's--my current location in Ohio is a pretty bad pizza locale. I can't wait for their "ship a pizza anywhere" option on palermosonline.com!    [08 May 2005 16:58:41]

Palermo's is the best
I used to live in Oak Lawn and now I live in Florida. There's not a better restaurant in Chicago than Palermo's. Palermo's specializes in thin crust pizza and their regular crust pizza are the best in the world!!!! I have yet to taste a pizza in Florida that comes close to a Palermo's pizza!!    [03 Nov 2005 10:43:06]

Pizza pizza pizza
Although I have had many dishes at Palermos, I still can not resist the pizza when I go. I live in Maryland now and must stop at Palermos everytime I come home. I even have my husband addicted and he grew up outside of New York City. I have been bringing Pizza back with me for over 20 years!!    [27 Apr 2007 15:51:36]
