If you are looking for some good home made pizza then look no further. I used to work at this place and I can tell you that each pizza is made fresh and with care. The owner is super friendly and the new location feels nice and cozy to dine in. The biggest downside is the appetizers. Personally I think they are all bad and should be steered cleared from, but this is a pizza joint and they got that nailed down.

We ordered to go, and it was just okay. Thin crust, breadsticks. This falls into the same category for me as ordering from Pizza Hut or Papa John's. I can get a much better pizza for the same price from other local places, and it tastes like it's made with much fresher ingredients.

i eat at chicago pizza authority more than any other place in elgin (combined). strangely i rarely get pizza. my favorites on their menu are the chicken parmesan sandwich, bbq beef, and buffalo chicken salad. pizza is good but i usually come here for sandwiches and salads. really good food, open late, fair prices. staff is friendly and accurate with orders.

I order from CPA at least once a week and will continue as long as I live in Elgin. Everything has been delicious every time we eat in, take out, or have delivery. The only item on their menu that I am not fond of is their wings, other than that everything have been great! I even hosted a baseball themed bridal shower at their restaurant and it was wonderful. Try their homemade soups, lasagna and their desserts!

I have always liked their pizza. It's always been delivered hot, correctly, in a timely manner & tasted great. Recently I placed an order for myself at home. I got delivery and added the tip onto the total online. Once I got the delivery and was handed the receipt to sign I confirmed that the tip was printed on the receipt with the subtotal and added in to the total, and did not write an additional tip on the printed line. I'm not sure the driver was aware that the tip was already on there, because I've never had anybod... read more

I think this is my favorite pizza and pasta place in the Elgin area. I've only ordered thin crust, so I can't speak for the other types of crusts. I think the pizza has the right amount of each ingredient (not too cheesy, not to much sauce). The outside pieces are perfectly crunchy. For the pasta, I've gotten the spaghetti or mostacciolli with cheese and sausage. If you're not a huge fan of cheese, then order without it because it is a lot! I started doing without the cheese. However, I recently tried out their penne brocc... read more

One of my favorite pizza places in Elgin. Very few places can get a thin crust pizza right but these guys make it perfect every time! They're also extremely fast even on a busy night I've never had to wait longer than 40 minutes for delivery. If you want to try a specialty pizza with a unique flavor try the Hula. It's soooo good. The breadsticks are the only reason this place doesn't have 5 stars...
