1. Renzo
North Central
Just about everything is wonderfully noteworthy at Renzo: the brass barstools, the list tilted to natural wines, the way its building is situated on the corner, and of course, the pizza. Although enjoying it in its natural environment is ideal, sometimes the environment — or the evening — calls for takeout. In that case, Renzo happily obliges with offerings such as its Inspector Gadget pie: garlic cream, oyster mushrooms, caramelized onions, speck; and don’t forget a bottle to go, like the Sampagnino frizzante from the Bulli family in Emilia-Romagna, which not only goes with the pizza but is festive on its own — the right move when you’ve made the right takeout choice.
Dining status: Open for indoor dining, as well as takeout.
