Ahhh, just ok. Nothing special. The sauce had absolutely no flavor. Ordered from here only because Colutas was closed and I must say I was disappointed.
Found this place on the one bite pizza barstool sports app. El Pres and Eddie were here and it got a good review. New to portage park so I had to check it out, only 12 minutes away. If a pizza place in Chicago makes it onto One bite and is reviewed in person by Barstool, you know it's got something good. We looked at the menu, and my wife immediately said we had to order from here over anywhere else, all they do is pizza! I've been around to some great places in Chicago (Pequods, JB Alberto's, Dues, Uno's, Piece Pizza, Coalfire, Michaels, Vito & Nick's, Ranallis, Nuevo Italy, Pizza Villa, Giordano's, Lou Malnatis, Tortorices, Spacca Napoli, Jimmy's Pizza Cafe, the list goes on). This place STACKS up, and stacks up big time to the big names in Chicago pizza. Placed an order for the deluxe 16 in pizza (sausage, green pepper, mushroom, onions), it was $24. 20-25 minute pick up. While it was cash only, this is a small business. Walking up to the place, you see signs on front that say they've been there for 50 years! Walking in, it's a small front waiting area, glass partition, with an area to reach under and exchange money for pie. The back was a longer room, where they make the pies and stick them in the oven. Three person operation, and it looked like they were hiring for a driver. Woman saw me and came to help take care of my order. Done right on time, and they have a little heart shaped pan that you put your money in. Sign on the desk that says there is an ATM across the street. Ranch sold for .55 a packet. It was an awesome ma and pa local small business that I was happy to support. They were also very proud of their 50 year anniversary, and I got a free pen from them commemorating it! Free 2 liter with my purchase as well. The woman was so nice, and was very happy to receive a cash tip. Rung me up on the oldest cash register I've ever seen. That thing had to of been from the 1930s. Gave me my pizza in an old school bag instead of a box. The pizza was phenomenal. My wife is very picky and loves a cracker thin crust. This crist was thin, crispy, crackery and held the toppings firmly. Reminded me a lot of Vito and Nick's. The toppings were fresh, flavorful, the onions sliced thin, the pie sliced in tavern style tiny squares that made it easy to grab and eat. Not a single slice left over. We will be back. Superb experience, amazing pizza, great local small business pizza shop. Our new favorite place. Don't pay attention to these negative reviews focused on cash only. If you're a connoisseur of pizza, this is a MUST.

Geo’s tavern style pizza is by far my most favorite pizza I’ve had in Chicago. The cracker crust is crispy and decadent with enough thickness to not be drowned out with toppings and sauce. Too often the tavern style is saturated in the middle making the crispy center more of a soft texture by the time you get to the middle.
I ordered this double sausage add garlic and we’ll done. The freshness of the ingredients and perfect execution always delivers. What’s most impressive as a non Chicago native is the ability to not have any kind of issues later in the night or the next day. Sometimes too acidic pizzas sit heavy and don’t fair well with my stomach. I’ve never had an issue with any tavern style pizza in Chicago.
I couldn’t recommend Geo’s enough! Remember, bring cash and an empty belly! You’re in for a treat!

Best pizza place hands down! Especially their pan pizza. No wonder they've been around for 50 years.

GEO’s Thick or Thin? They only carry ????.
my preference is thin although who doesn’t like a thick every so often, know what I mean?
Geo’s was the first place i ordered from when i moved to this neighborhood.
Never disappoints, always on point. Their tiny bite size squares are comical and perfect. Sauce is good, tasty sausage. Great family owned business. 10/10 recommend

Horrible pizza. Ordered 2 slices of sausage and got 4 small triangle slices. Cheese tasted weird and the sausage was over cooked. Highly recommend you do go here.

Called this place up to see if they were open and if they has slices available. Although the man was nice he missed the mark on a couple of things. For one, it’s a cash only establishment. This should definitely come up on the phone. # 2 when i placed my order over the phone he should have also mentioned that he would not start it until it was paid, I would have never went there. When I got there and realized it was both not ready and cash only, I told him I would be back that I was going to Walgreens to the cash. When I returned, HE STILL HADN’T PUT THE SLICES IN!!!! I wish I would had changed my mind right there but I didn’t….I ordered and returned to pick up my slices, 2 cheese & 1 sausage. I was curious (due to mixed reviews) so I dove right into the sausage………it was the most disgusting pizza I had ever eaten. The 5 star reviews are either family, friends, or paid reviews. First the smell of the pizza shop was disgusting but I ignored it (& every other red flag apparently)……listen to the bad reviews the only good thing about was the crust was super thin and crunchy but the sauce or sausage had NO FLAVOR - NONE! Not even the cheese tasted good! Save your money and go to lil cesar’s…..at least you know what to expect.
I tossed the entire box out in the trash and went to McD’s!
I feel bad writing this review but they should feel worse for selling that, and calling it pizza!

Crust was at least crispy and not soggy. Nothing else good about it. Sour sauce, tasteless otherwise. Woman seemed nice enough and they delivered fast and late. Dominoes would have been cheaper for the taste though. Not sure why their ratings are so high, maybe the people eating it are.

Have been ordering their pizza for over 30 years and they have the best thin crust pizza in town.

Had Geo's for the first time tonight. Man, that is the way pizza is supposed be. Very happy with my pizza, and will order again. Even though we live kind of out of the way. Totally worth it.

Cash only. Reasonably priced thin crust pizza was good. Wish I could say more.

Been eating Geos for 35 years. Still tastes like it did the first time. Last of a few iconic pizzerias left in the area. A must have.

I wanted to give 5 stars. Love the history the nostalgic look and the true thin tavern style crust pizza. But looks better than it tastes sadly. Just wished it tasted better. (I've eaten at over 50 pizza places in chicago and nyc). But their prices are nice for their pizzas. Open late for take out or delivery. Cash only.

My favorite thin crust pizza joint in the Portage Park / Dunning area. Beats Frank's, Al's and Trattoria Poretta. Guy who takes my order always cracks a joke and makes me laugh.

Place has been here forever, delicious thin crust pizza! Cash only, and parking on Harlem Ave. Staff are very friendly, and prices are reasonable compared to most other places.

Outstanding affordable neighborhood pizza joint. Very tasty thin crust pizza, I had the sausage and pepperoni 16 " inch family size and let me say everyone enjoyed it. The owner was very friendly authentic lady who has two young men assisting her making these wonderful creations. The crust is thin ,chewy,crunchy the pizza taste was outstanding. Man will we be coming back. Fast friendly service , very affordable prices.
