We love Crust for lunch! Their flatbread pizzas are amazing, simple and great sized for one with leftovers or two for a light lunch.

Being partial to thin crust pizza, the flatbread selections were perfect for a weekend lunch. Plus, the backyard patio (w/ canopy) is a great place to take advantage of a sunny day.

We ordered 4 flatbreads and it was the perfect amount for 4 people to share, be satisfied and not too stuffed. The bacon, green pea & sunny side up egg flatbread was unique and stood out compared to the more traditional toppings.

Cost: $14-$18 before Tax and Tip

I had heard all of this hype about Crust being the first organic certified restaurant in Chicago. Now I applaud their courage and efforts and it was not a quality of food/ nor price of food where they missed meeting my expectations. It was in the rest of the experience. The host was only so-so, the water was served in plastic cups and the decor was just plain. I will certainly return to support the restaurant, but I didn’t get the vibe I was hoping for in my meal. I can cook organic pizza at home, I was looking for a better time.

I’m already looking forward to returning to this place – the pizza was terrific… a chewy, thin crust- nice and light but still full of flavor. I had the shrimp arribata and the sauce was wonderfully spicy but not overdone. The shrimp were well cooked and not rubbery and the mozzarella added the perfect amount of cheesiness, not overpowering. The tapenade was a great appetizer and I really enjoyed my faux-jito… thanks for remembering the non-drinkers too! Our waitress was thoughtful and knew when to stop by and be attentive and when to blend into the background. The atmosphere was laid back and understated, a great place for a double-date or a family dinner. I wish we lived closer!
