Paisans is an Italian word for friends, but to us, it also means family. Family has always been at the center of Paisans’ beginning and the driving force behind its success. Paisans Pizza was started by Luigi, an immigrant to the United States, in 1985. In a small corner store in Cicero, Illinois, Luigi started making pizzas out of a household kitchen oven. Shortly after, Luigi was joined by his son Pete, fulfilling orders one at a time using hand-written tickets hanging from clothespins in their tiny kitchen.Pete spent the next 30 years expanding the business, while also refining the Paisans brand and menu. He did this while always remembering what got us here: our famous pizza and award-winning wings.Staying true to the idea of family, Pete brought in his boys to help him take the Paisans concept to the next level. Mentoring his sons in their new roles, Pete involves them in every aspect of the restaurant business.

We have been patronizing this restaurant many years. The food is excellent and very reasonable. I do notice that when it is crowded there isn’t enough help to keep up with the volume of orders and service. They should increase the number of servers and especially the bar tending staff. Our waiter Joey was very attentive. I believe that he was waiting on more tables than he should have. The upper management should look into increasing staff or implement more efficiencies.
