The food was amazing! As a party with people needing both gluten free and vegan options, there were so many options for everyone to choose from! The staff were kind and welcoming and the fresh flowers were a fun touch.
Wow... Gluten free pizza dough deserves 5 stars... Tasty & perfect texture in my opinion.
Even though I'm not gluten intolerant... I will have this one. 😁
Very nice people who let a meetup group of us meet there every Friday and every other Saturday to play boardgames. Many times they let us stay late to finish our long games. They have gluten-free pizzas, which are a life-saver for me. And the pizzas are delicious.
Old Chicago Pizza located in the heart of historic downtown Petaluma is a family-friendly pizza shop. Famous for their different choices of crust and deep dish pizzas, this building is located on the second story of Lanmart Building. They also have a second location in Petaluma which is their take out and delivery service. This is in the Wilco Shopping Center. I compliment how fast they answer their phone there.
As for the sit down and dine in restaurant, they have old fashioned brick and peach colored walls. They even have chandeliers! I liked their decor for sure.
Ever since Covid the restaurant is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays other than their delivery service.
The afternoon I had come in my guest and I were seated right next to the window. How lucky we were to be able to watch the nice view of people walking and cars going by! The waitress we had received was very nice. She had an upbeat personality and had taken care of us very well. I hope all your employees are like this.
They first start you off with sourdough bread and butter on the side. My guest and I ordered the cheesy garlic bread as the appetizer. Then we picked our own four selection of toppings which was mushrooms, olives, pepperoni, and sausage on a deep dish pizza. I love how filling even one slice can be! My guest and I only had one slice each and saved the rest for the next couple of days.
Although they are well known for their delicious deep dish crust pizza, they do have options of thin crust, double crust, and even gluten free crust that you can choose from! There seems to be vegetarian options as well as they do have garlic bread and salads and of course pizza with vegetable toppings. They also have dessert, one that’s a gluten free option. They have alcoholic beverages from options of beer to red and white wine. They do have a bar there if you’re just feeling like drinks and not the whole dine in experience.
The parking lot that’s right next to the Lanmart Building used to be the Cosmopolitan Hotel in the 1800s. The parking lot itself was apart of a scene of the American movie, “American Graffiti.” This is where you can find one of the parking lots to settle in while you have your meal. There’s a second parking lot right next to this one. They are both 2 hour maximum time parking spots. Although the restaurant is on the second floor and you have to get up there through stairs there is an elevator for the wheelchair accessibility folks.
To the beautiful people of Sonoma county and visitors abroad, I recommend trying this place out! With the historic building and the friendly employees you have found yourself a good pizza place!
The cauliflower crust here is the best I've ever had. It is so tasty I don't mind at all that its the healthier option. This is the first pizza place where I don't feel like I'm missing out because I can't eat gluten.
