Giordano’s

Soooo good. We only had one night in Chicago and I had to have some Chicago-Style deep dish pizza. There are sooooo many choices for pizza in any big city with Chicago perhaps leading them all. We picked Giordano’s as they delivered to our hotel and had several locations. This pizza rocked! I love deep dish and really am glad we chose Giordano’s as they didn’t disappoint. I could eat pizza in this town every day for a year and not be tired of it. If I remember, we got a combo or meat lovers type of pizza. It is very filling and we were able to keep some leftovers for the following day’s lunch before we left the city. Man, give this place a try if undecided or just to try some authentic Chicago deep dish pizza.

I was really hoping to love deep dish pizza – because I love cheese and I LOVE red sauce. Loads and loads of it. So even though so many people hate on deep dish, I was still excited to give it a real chance. We chose Giordano’s for dinner that evening. There was a slight wait but not as bad as I expected. We ordered the Giordano’s House Salad (because we had eaten so bad all weekend long) and balanced it with some red sangria. Also got some cheesy garlic bread to munch on while waiting for the deep dish pizza. Our server seemed over it. When he brought out the pizza, instead of the big fanfare that other servers did for their table, waiting for the camera to be ready or posing for the photo with the long cheese pull, he quickly sliced and pulled the slice up high and with great reluctance held up the slice after he noticed our frantic scrambling to get a photo. The cheese pull is impressive – and the gold standard for any cheese pull on any cheesy entree. Deep dish pizza in general is just too heavy. The pizza was a bit doughy and while I appreciated all the sauce and cheese and pepperoni, it lacked in texture thanks to the slight sogginess. While deep dish pizza isn’t my favorite, I wouldn’t mind eating it again at Giordano’s once in a blue moon. I have had better in Atlanta (gasp) but I know that Giordano’s is a classic in Chicago that I have no choice to respect!

Came for lunch and waited about half an hour before getting a table for four. Started with a Greek Salad, which was pretty good. Just the small salad was enough for the four of us. Tasted very fresh and was quite good with the banana peppers. Then got the Special Chicago Style Deep Dish. Had to wait about an hour for it to come which is about normal for a deep dish pizza. The flavor was pretty good and crust crispy. Wasn’t really my style as there was not nearly enough sauce for me personally. However, all the ingredients were very tasty and the dough fresh. If you’re more into deep dish would probably like this place a lot!

A nice place to enjoy your pizza with your friends. I was worried that the pizza might be too much but in fact its doable to eat one haha.

Best service ever!! Luis was so welcoming and made our experience so great! All the food was delicious and served on a timely manner. They are doing a great job at managing covid regulations by spreading tables out and only seating a certain amount of people at a time.

To be fair, I’ve never had a true Chicago-style deep dish pizza before this one today so I don’t have much to compare it to. But I loved it. We got a plain cheese deep dish. Fantastic for the style. The crust is almost flaky, almost like a pie crust. The cheese is great, and there’s a lot of it, which I also think is great. Great flavor to the sauce. It’s during coronavirus so the inside dining wasn’t open but the outside patio was and we had excellent service.

I traveled to Chicago last month for a quick weekend getaway. I basically flew there just to eat and travel safely due to covid. It was my first time trying deep dish pizza and it did not disappoint. We had gone to other deep dish pizza spots that same weekend but this was my favorite by far. The crust alone was delicious and the toppings. Can’t wait to go back

Amazing pizza. Deep dish pizza was great, but it takes 45 minutes to bake. Great service. There are out door sitting, very important right now.

CALLING ALL PIZZA LOVERS? Have you had a deep dish pizza? I can finally say that I have had the famous Chicago Giordano’s Deep dish pizza! Why y’all didn’t tell me it was sooo big.

Classic Chicago Italian! The staff is friendly, the food is good and the beer is cold. I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve had here. The spaghetti with marinara is one of my favorites! If you enjoy meatballs add one to your meal. Really good!
