Just because you live in Illinois doesn’t mean you have to be a fan of thick, deep-dish pizzas. Chicago is only a small portion of the state, and their food preferences are not necessarily reflected by the rest of the state. Some of us like ketchup on hot dogs, buttered popcorn, and, of course, thin crust pizza.
If you can’t call anything but this flat pie a pizza, then this Illinois eatery is just for you. Scroll on for all the delicious details.
Manny's Pizza is both a pizzeria and a Mexican food joint that Illinoisans can't get enough of. It has four locations, but the first opened in Savanna in 1973 along the Mississippi River.
Hours of operation are Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. while on Fridays and Saturdays, the place stays open a bit later until 10:30 p.m.
Other menu items include salads, tacos, enchiladas, nachos, wings, and a slew of appetizers. Each location also serves beer, margaritas, and other drinks.
Fresh ingredients and time-tested recipes are what set this amazing thin crust pizza place apart from the rest. Eat in, carry out, or order anything off the restaurant's vast menu for delivery.
