Any ideas?
Is the romantic location more important to you than the pizza itself?
Great Pizza... Romantic Location... Hmmm...
The Nite 'N Gale in Highwood has a decent sized room with a bar in the middle of it, with dim lighting, old school booths and an excellent crispy thin crust pizza (as well as a full menu of steaks, chops, fish, etc). Plenty of free parking.
Marie's Pizza (a GNR!) on Lawrence just west of Pulaski is one of my all-time favorites for thin crust. On Thursday and Friday nights they have live jazz, which can be romantic. I don't think they have live music on Tuesday though. It's a classic neighborhood joint with chandeliers and big red booths, which can be charming if you like nostalgia (or a turn off if you're a trendy hipster). Street parking is usually not a problem and it's free. Just take Milwaukee to Elston to Lawrence from Niles.
