Try the thin-crust pan pizza from Gullivers. It's great. I also recommend JB's Alberto on Morse ave for thin crust.

Carmen's is still ensconced in the Loyola "L" stop block, and does deliver.  Yum.  (773) 465-1700.

Gulliver's delivers to Newgard & Devon, though I can't speak to their pizza -- I'm addicted to their Philly Cheesesteak and Potato Skins, myself (and ruefully miss their Vesuvio Melt sandwich -- heart attack on a bun).  (773) 338-2166.

JB Alberto's is excellent pizza fare.  I like their thin crust just fine, but enjoy the decadence of their double deck pizza (essentially, two pizzas, one on top of the other, baked -- the inner crust is gooier and makes for good eatin').  (773) 338-7117.

When I want *thin crust* (and I do mean thin), I order from Calo's on Clark.  They do pizzas up to the "full posse" size, and cut it into the dozens of cheesy rectangles associated with good greasy thin crust. (I can't remember Calo's number off the top of my head.)

Hope this helps in the great pizza search!

I recommend Barnabys for the best thin crust.  Although they vary a little by store.  The one in Schaumburg is great!
