My wife and I have been going to Nancy's Pizza in Niles for years. But we moved a bit further away and haven't been there in a while.
Going back in on Sunday, we were greeted by our regular waitress and bus boy as well as the owner. It's alway fun when people recognize you, but they were surprised that I came in with a walker. My knee replacement has not gone well and so I'm still walking with a walker.
We were surprised to see that the restaurant added gaming machines in the back of the restaurant. It is near the washrooms and is "roped" off for guests over 21 only. We were also informed that they had an electrical fire in September and were closed until November to fix it.
This time around, we did not order our usual "dinner specials" that the restaurant usually has daily. Instead, I ordered a Cheese Stuffed Pizza (Medium) and my wife ordered and Italian Beef with Fries.
I had been going to Nancy's Pizza since my senior year in high school. My friend Steve drove me there since he had a car and we always ordered a pizza. But, since going back as an adult, I have been ordering their dinner specials. So, it was good to have a pizza again. Very good... just as I remembered.
My wife ordered the Italian Beef & Fries since she does not eat cheese. She said the fries were very good. Nice and crispy. But the Italian Beef was a bit dry for her as it did not come with au jus.
Overall, give Nancy's a try if you haven't already. The regulars like us (although not as much lately since we don't live as close anymore) usually end up ordering the dinner specials (good value), but the pizzas are still their claim to fame.
