Slice Of Cheesie's Opens In Lake View

The new pizzeria has opened its doors in the former Blackwood BBQ spot.

CHICAGO, IL — A new late-night pizza parlor held its grand opening Friday at noon in Lake View. Slice of Cheesie's opened next door to Cheesie's Pub & Grub — the neighborhood's popular grilled cheese restaurant — and a passageway connects the two spots. The new pizzeria at 958-964 W. Belmont Avenue offers guests free arcade games.

The Slice of Cheesie's menu includes at least nine signature pizzas, such as the Balboa (Philly steak, sauteed onions/mushrooms with chipotle cream cheese sauce), Caprese (cheese blend with fresh basil, tomatoes, pepper served on pesto cream cheese sauce), and some creative options like mac-and-cheese pizza and the Frenchie with steak-cut fries, bacon, chives and sour cream. You can also opt to build your own pizza with a wide selection of toppings.

The menu also includes a variety of appetizers, such as fried ravioli, mozzarella sticks, fried artichoke hearts, cheese fries, wings and garlic knots.
