Pizza Castle first opened it's doors in 1973 when Richard Jensen and his brother decided to add some pizza to the city's south side. In their tiny take-out spot in Gage Park, they served up authentic, tavern-style pizzas in their iconic Faulds oven.  With thin, crispy crust, homemade sauce with the perfect amount of sweetness and fresh ingredients - they quickly grew their following far and wide, including the crew from Chicago's Best, Andrew Zimmern, and their amazing customers who've been loyal for decades.  

​

After almost 50 wonderful years serving friends in Chicago, the Jensen's moved it's family-owned and operated pizzeria to the south suburbs in Hickory Hills in 2022, now local to where the family grew up. The new store's expanded footprint with dine-in area, patio seating, bar area and gaming machines, allows owner Richard and co-owner sons, Erik and Rick, to spend more quality face-to-face time with their customers. The family is looking forward to another 50 years of specializing in the crispy crust, house-made fennel sausage, and great service they're known for with the amazing customers who make it all worth doing.
