Stopped by Jay's Comics and while the hubby was looking through the comic books, my son and I stopped for a bit at Wayne's. It smells amazing when you walk in! Got 3 slices of pizza and a soda. It came to about 12. My son loved his slice of deep dish. I really enjoyed my thin crust slice, it's a bit salty though. Will definitely stop by again to try other items on the menu next time we are in the area.

We’ve been partnering with Wayne’s Pizza for our monthly events over the past few months, and their service has been consistently reliable. The feedback from our guests has been amazing every time! Our staff and customers constantly rave about how good the pizza is, and we love that it always arrives freshly made! It’s perfect every time. The team at Wayne’s is always on time, kind, and so easy to work with. We highly recommend them for events, parties, or even for just a chill night in! Best pizza in Lake County, Illinois!

I should have taken a picture of the pizza we ordered. This was like old school pizza. Lots of cheese and sausage. Not like these other places I will not name that have like one or two pieces of sausage per slice of pizza. This pizza was loaded with cheese and sausage. Kids loved it.

Best Pizza. It is an amazing place not only do they have the best pizza but you have to try their homemade Italian beef. Yup they make their own and it shows. They even sell frozen pizza you can take home. It’s like having your own pizzeria at home.

This past late March marked the very 1st time (I know, right?!) trying Wayne's and was very pleased with this taste. I read a local news article a couple of years ago about the best pizza joint in the Grayslake area and came to my surprise that it wasn't Bill's Pub North but indeed Wayne's. Since then I guess it was just a matter of timing of when I could finally stop in but then again I'm a foodie and I'm always looking for that next pizza, burger, gyros venue, etc. I must say the food in general is really good here and especially their pizza. Even after sitting in a warmer for quite a few minutes, those single slices still taste awesome. I think the next time I bring my family here, we'll try traditional pizza dining and order a whole pie fresh outta the oven. This local gem is a real treat for the residents of Third Lake/Grayslake area. Definitely some of the most delicious pizza in Lake County and well worth a stop in for those pizza connoisseurs who haven't tried yet, you won't be disappointed! Always happy to support a local business especially in today's economy and I wish for continued boomin' business for the owner(s).

I live in Grayslake. Been a Pizza freak for decades. Wayne's on Rt 45 has fantastic thin crust pizza. Had a slice with Peperoni and one with Sausage. Both were great. Crust is REALLY THIN. I LOVED IT! Good deal on slices too.

I've been coming to this place for over 10 years, just the food is delicious. I mention this Wayne's Pizza numerous time to people who have never heard of it. They think it's a great place, and I recommend everyone to try it out.

Got a large pan pizza with sausage, green peppers, mushroom, and black olives. It was delicious!! I'm from the area, but have been away for 2 decades and have made my way back and exploring new places. Silo deep dish has ALWAYS been my go to when visiting, but I'm pleasantly surprised with this pizza! The toppings were ample, the crust buttery and perfect, the service - great! I will definitely be back!
