Little Italian Pizza Closes Its Doors

A Buffalo Grove pizza parlor went out of business last week.

Little Italian Pizza and Pub has closed its doors after more than 25 years of business in Buffalo Grove.

The restaurant stopped serving food on Jan. 3, and the bar closed on Jan. 5, customers said. When Patch visited on Wednesday, the building was vacated. There was no notice posted about the closing.

Fans of the restaurant posted goodbye messages on Little Italian’s Facebook page last week. 

“Thanks for all the memories! Love you!” one wrote.

Little Italian’s owner could not be reached Wednesday for comment. Village Manager Dane Bragg said he is not aware of any plans for the restaurant to relocate within Buffalo Grove.

Seems as if the landlord raised the rent too high. Rumor is you might find Chrissy running the bar operation at another Buffalo Grove eatery...

We love this pizza place and the owner is so nice. So Sad. Hope they open again soon.
