CHICAGO - STYLE

We built lefty's based on the small mom & pop shops we grew up with in and around Chicago - vividly remembering our bikes rides or walks to the corner as kids to grab a slice or a dog (if Dad was along . . . a beef sandwich) and the happy feelings that came with it. Those mouth-watering & comforting flavors have remained with us all of the years spent away from Chicago. Thankfully, there was a day when we became tired of complaining about missing the pizza of our youth and began to spend hours in our little kitchens trying to figure out the secrets of the pies haunting our memories. These memories come from so many unique & wonderful Chicagoland pizzerias that we cannot begin to compare what we are creating with any one particular spot. What we can claim is that we strive to bring you the best Chicago-style pizza possible while living in our beautiful San Diego. Fortunately, we felt obliged to offer the windy city's other infamous street treats with our expanded menu. We hope you find the time to pay us a visit.


THE PIZZA

the thin crust has a thick, zesty sauce and a crispy crust . . . we cut it in squares for easy handling

the deep dish crust is made to rise a little more and we have added cornmeal to the dough for added flavor . . . a chunky tomato sauce tops off this pie

the stuffed pizza is a true "pie" - three pounds of pure wisconsin mozzerella, surrounded by two layers of crust & topped with our zesty tomato sauce


(as our space is limited and our ingredients fresh, we do run out of dough on busy nights . . .
we know not how to rectify this lack of space & apologize in advance should this ever disappoint you)
