We ordered a full slab of ribs tonight for dinner, the were delicious, tender and lean. The flavor of the bbq was awesome. The onion rings were plentiful and good. It was a very good meal. We enjoyed every bite! Have a good meal and try the ribs.

I order the same pizza every time. The works on a very thin crust. The pizza is to DIE FOR! Just enough sauce and toppings. That's generally difficult with a pizza with so many toppings on a thin crust to remain in order. A delicate balance that CPA gets right. With the works pizza at least. Delivery is friendly and on time. Food arrives hot and delicious. We ate the pizza before taking a picture, next time. 

Business response:

Thank you so much for your kind words, C. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us. Cheers, Chicago Pizza Authority

I have been here numerous times, I can't believe I'm only now writing a review! This is definitely my favorite pizza in Elgin. I've only ever had the thin crust pizza here and it might been the best Chicago tavern-style pizza I've ever had! Reasons: They consistently load their pizza with plenty of cheese. Lots of cheese, always. And I always swap out their regular pizza sauce for GARLIC MARINARA. It's so unbelievably good. Fresh and garlicky. I pretty much always order a house salad (large generous size for less thank $5!) ... read more

Ordered a few pizzas, a salad and a couple of apps last minute on Halloween. Long wait but with the shut downs due to Covid, and only delivery or carry out available, it was to be expected. Food was all delicious. The kids loved the pizza!

I love this place. We've been going for a minute now. They're right near our home. I love their Lasagne. Their shrimp plates are the bomb, too. My stepdad loves their 4 piece fried chicken. I'm also a fan of their mozzarella sticks. Their thin crust pizza is some of the best in town.

One of our go to take-out places in Oswego/Yorkville! Deep dish, double dough, and thin crust are all awesome! They have a great variety of chicken wing options as well!! Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

I have been getting food from here for awhile now. I usually order the California Pizza. It's very delicious and I recommend it. I would try getting pizza slices from here but they usually run out at 3. The service here could be better. I once came here to get a slice of pizza and the lady at the front wasn't even acknowledging me. She was on her phone and had the worst attitude. Besides the service, I recommend eating here.

Wonderful service (on the phone and during takeout), surprisingly fast (25 minutes for deep dish on a Friday early evening; it was ready in 20), and AMAZING pizza! We got a size XL and the two of us had dinner, lunch, and a late-night snack! Leftovers reheated well and were delicious each time. We are moving out of the area so hope that there is a CPA this good near our new place!
