Curt Rollison: Great pizza worth the wait, but the graffiti covered everything may gross out your squirmish germaphobe friends
Evan[Bu]: Don't order a New York style pizza in Chicago, get deep dish! Get a pie with pepperoni and green olives. To pass time while waiting for your pizza, bring a marker and graffiti up the place!
Melissa: Great pizza, always worth the wait!

Alice Ferris: Try the Graffiti - Matsutake mushroom made to look like concrete on a concrete slab with parsley oil "graffiti" @goalbustersjim #birthday (via @Foodspotting)
Keith Wood: Definitively my best culinary experience. When put up against EMP and Chef's Table@BK Fare, Alinea wins hands down. While both are great, the adaptive & edgy service at Alinea is second to none.
Travel Channel: Sardine sandwiches floating on titanium antennae, solidified olive oil -- Alinea may well be, and I do not say this lightly, the most important restaurant in America. -- Andrew Zimmern, Bizarre Foods
Todd Bida: Chicago is an amazing city of outdoor public art Picasso, Calder and this amazing Chagall. Great to visit especially as we celebrate the arrival of spring.
Explore Chicago: Composed of thousands of inlaid chips in over 250 colors, Marc Chagall’s mosaic artwork The Four Seasons portrays six scenes of Chicago. Read more.
Keith K.: The mosaic is surrounded by video surveillance. Lean in close to get this same photo and find out what happens.
