When the weather warms up in Chicago, there’s no better way to enjoy dinner than with outdoor dining along the river. Robert’s Pizza and Dough Company is a hidden gem offering artisan pizzas, great wine, and a scenic patio in the city.


We began with the Arancini, made with mushroom risotto, za’dough breadcrumbs, taleggio, parmesan, and a spicy arrabbiata sauce. Each bite was perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, with just the right hint of heat from the sauce. It’s a must-order if you’re looking for a starter that’s both indulgent and flavorful.

We decided to share a few of their signature pizzas—each one offering a totally different flavor experience:

  • Soppressata Pizza: Topped with soppressata, Calabrian chili peppers, red sauce, fresh mozzarella, and shredded mozzarella. This pizza brought just the right amount of heat and saltiness—a classic choice for spice lovers.

  • Prosciutto & Arugula Pizza: With prosciutto di Parma, heirloom cherry tomatoes, arugula, lemon vinaigrette, and three cheeses, this pizza was fresh and bright. It balanced out the richer flavors of the other pies beautifully.

  • Tulip Tree Three Cheese Pizza: Our table favorite! This featured oxglove, trillium, and fresh mozzarella—melting together into a creamy, decadent bite. The unique cheese blend made this pizza stand out.

Between the riverside patio, top-tier artisan pizza, and excellent wine selection, Robert’s Pizza and Dough Company is the ideal spot for warm-weather dining in Chicago. Whether you're planning a group dinner, date night, or weekend brunch, the vibe here delivers every time.
