I give it 4 stars...

I give it 4 stars for food alone - excellent thin crust pizza, with super thin crispy crust and perfect flavor, I was very happy about that. But the atmosphere and service were lacking.It was almost empty at dinnertime, smelled like cigars, and the service was friendly but slow. I will definitely be ordering pizzas for takeout or delivery though.I never would have thought of this place for pizza until a neighbor recommended it. Their pizza is on par with Pat's Pizza!

City Lights is the worst...
By Nadia from Chicago, IL, September 24, 2005

Overall rating:

City Lights is the worst bar masquerading as an 18+ dance club. This ridiculous venue has dj's mixing on Friday nights and they charge all of the participants a cover charge. This "club" after charging the cover, shut down at midnight and had rude cops escorting everyone out. This place is not worth the money and the bartenders do not even know what they are doing. I asked for a whiskey sour and the woman had to go look it up in a book. I do not recommended this place.

If you like Karaoke like...
By Ricky Dean from Chicago, IL, February 10, 2004

Overall rating:

If you like Karaoke like I do, don't go there, very crappy sound system & dj, other than that the place looks very nice & clean, good service & excellent food (considering you're in a bar)the mostly twenty-something crowd seems to be in a world of their own, so make sure to bring your own friends or it will be a very boring night! same thing goes for the women there, I did not see one single un-escorted female there all night, so don't bother trying to get laid there. The mostly male crowd outnumbers women 10-1 simply put, there's too many roosters in the hen house!!
