Bar Cargo

Amazing service!

We were in town for C2E2 and stumbled upon this place by our hotel. I made a reservation on Open Table, because it's Chicago and it was a Saturday night.
The service was amazing. I don't think I've ever had food from any restaurant come out so quickly. Its was hot, fresh and delicious! The pizza crust is crisp, airy and one of the best I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying. Highly recommend!

We are lucky to have many great pizza places in Chicago...and the Roman-style pizza and the fried calamari at Bar Cargo have become our new favorite! No doubt, it is our little reminder of Italy in the midwest.

This place has good pizza, good vibe, and friendly service.

Had the best time and the best service! Our drinks were never empty!

We went with a work group before the opera. Fast service, great pizzas and excellent drinks! Definitely recommend and especially for large groups. Not too busy or crowded either

Nice place with quick service and a nice bar. Food is great but keep in mind the pizza serving is pretty good even when it says serves two. Definitely going again.

Great pizza, crust, cheese, everything! Also a very good beer selection!

Great pizza. I highly recommend the fun guy.

Was a quiet post Christmas meal. Not a lot of people out and easy to get in. Happy hour drink special good.

This is our pizza place when going to Chicago. Always good
Nice thing you can do 2 kinds of pizza on one. Service is always great.

Brunch was fun. I wish there would’ve been more of happy ambiance in the restaurant. It seemed very quiet and our server didn’t make us feel the most welcome or comfortable.

Food was great but our waitress didn’t tell us when the kitchen was closing, so by the time we were ready for dessert she told us the kitchen was already closed.

Solid atmosphere. Food is okay, we got the Chicago, the queen, and the Juliette. The first two were decent but the Juliette was literally crust w arugula and prosciutto on top. The crust is way too thick for a pizza like that.

Fried raviolis are also frozen from a bag as are the cheese curds. To sum it up, if someone suggested to go here I’d say “okay” but would likely suggest another spot. Better cheaper places nearby.

Brunch was fun, I appreciated the mini champagne bottles instead of carafes of premixed mimosas. The pizza and the salad on the breakfast buffet were a nice addition.

Great service. Cool bar/restaurant for good food with sports on in the background if you like that kind of thing... which we do!! 😁

Birthday spot

Good service and good food. Music was like being at a club. Very loud. Hard to talk. It was a sunday night and almost nobody there but you would have thought it was a packed club by the way they were pumping the music. Annoying.

Great food! Good service! Great for a casual night out. Beautiful patio tucked away in river north! And it’s a Wisconsin football bar for games.

Amazing food, great environment, excellent service.

I love Bar Cargo. Great pizza. Nice place. Has not been to crowded the couple times I have been. Servers have been very attentive. All around a great place to get really good pizza.

Service could’ve been better but the food was amazing. Some of the best pizza I’ve had in Chicago. 10/10 would recommend.

Really friendly and helpful crew working here. The pizza was excellent - crispy base, light and full of flavor. Great experience all round.

Fried ravioli and fried artichoke YUM. A perfect outside, nice but not too boujie of a place. 10/10

We stumbled upon Bar Cargo when we couldn’t get into any of the infamous Chicago style pizzerias. Great find!

We had a party of 6 people on a Saturday night and the majority of the crowd in the restaurant was around 25 years old. The food was good, it was just very loud with all of the large groups in there.

Pizza was great. The size of the pizza for the price was good as well. Server was friendly and the food was timely. Thank you!

The Roman style pizza was pretty good. Surprisingly, I may have enjoyed the white pizza more than the red but both were good. The outdoor patio area is a very enjoyable place to be weather permitting. Good service, good food, and good environment. Enjoy!

We went when they opened for lunch so it was not too crowded. The food was great and highly recommend it.

We love the vibe at Bar Cargo. It is great for meeting friends or couple time. The food is consistently delicious. I recommend the calamari and cookout pizza - our favorites. TVs are well-places for watching sports and the music adds energy - always something to Shazam for later.

Everything was great, but I’m super bummed they took my two favorite things off the menu- arancini with spaghetti and the Roman pizza. Bring them back, please!

Great service, amazing pizza for the money.

Beer garden is adorable! Good food too, would definitely go back

Expensive and small wine pour

I was hesitant about booking this place, but I am so glad that I did!!! Granted it is not Chicago deep dish, but the pizza was excellent!! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and the service was great! I would recommend.

Great atmosphere and delicious pizza. A small was more than enough for two people plus leftovers! Great experience! I've already started recommending to friends.

Was absolutely delicious. I’m still thinking about it. I don’t live in Chicago but I am definitely going back and having another pizza at Bar cargo!

We loved the pizza! Had the Queen and Cheese Please and it was fantastic. Also has the Wisconsin cheese curds which were amazing (and we are from WI)! Also had fantastic service from the bartenders and waitress. We watched the Bucks game and also enjoyed the environment. We will be back for sure!

Love this place but music too loud to hold a conversation. But we are over 60 so that probably explains it!!!

Great service and great back patio!
