Chicago style pizza Aug 13, 2009
This place is nice and cozy. Their pizza is fantastic!! With lots of different styles to choose, you will definitely find one of your liking. Great pizza, great service, affordable cost, there might be a wait but it is worth it.

I'm always dubious about chicago style deep dish pizza, coming from a place that is "world famous" always makes me more nervous, but hey I'm in Chicago so I have to try it. It is also always featured on either the travel channel or food network. Also I walk by the place almost every day and there’s always a large line of slick Chicago types looking to kill their cholesterol count and country bumpkins hoping they’ll run into a A list celebrity (um Johnny depp or Jay Cutler anybody?) The pizza is just like a pie, but instead of being filled with blueberry's or whatever its filled with cheese and for some sausages and whatever else. On top is a nice layer of pizza sauce. Is it worth the line to get in? Phone ahead, and you will be pleased.

IF you love pizza, you've got to try this! Dec 24, 2008
Quite simply amazing...the pizza is made upside down so you get the cheese on the base, topping in the middle and sauce on top. I was really dubious but it tasted fantastic and there's so much of it. We shared a medium size between 3 of us and only paid a few dollars each.

Best Stuffed Pizza in the Windy City Sep 24, 2008
Giordano's is quite simply the best pizza in Chicago. They are known for their "Stuffed" pizza, however their thin crust pizza is phenomenal as well. All in all, Giordano's appetizers are quite disappointing. They mostly have run-of-the-mill cheesesticks and breadsticks that taste as if they were frozen. My personal favorite pizza is the "Special" which comes with Sausage (crumbled), mushroom, green peppers, and onions. An extra large pizza easily feeds three really hungry men. The staff here are usually pretty friendly and will politely warn you that the stuffed pizza takes about 45 minutes to cook, which sucks when you're starving and drooling for it when you finally get seated. Great eats in Chicago.

It was the best pizza I ever had, It was huge and it was very tasty.
My friend and I had a vegetarian one with spinanch Yummie!! The people who worked there were very nice and the food was quick on the table because you could order before you even had a table to sit on Perfect system. |

Deep dish goodness!!! Mar 20, 2007
So when I went to Chicago I was on the hunt for this Deep Dish Pizza place that I was told by multiple locals to be the best deep dish pizza I'd ever eaten! And let me just say it was amazing and worth the hunt! I got there at dinner time and ate by myself (the joys of traveling alone) but the wait staff was very pleasent and cortious to it's customers.
Earlier that day I went to a deep dish restaurant and the crust was just pulled up and there was a lot of sauce in it with a lot of toppings and the base was so thin that it didn't taste good to eat it. But later in the day, eating the same thing for dinner but at a different place, I found what real deep dish pizza is supposed to taste like! This pizza came out and looked so glorious! The pizza had multiple layers. The bottom layer was the crust...then the toppings...then another layer of crust and finally, my favorite part of pizza, the sauce! The taste made my taste buds come a live and I savored every moment of my well deserved pizza! Part of the Engine, Engine, number 9 coming down Chicago Line travel blog |

Giordano's to me IS the BEST Deep Dish Pizza in the whole entire city. Don't pass it up. The can is affordable but it is a fairly nice restaurant so don't expect to pay for the pizza per slice or anything. I know that at some locations around the city Giordano's is half off on Monday's. Hot Dogs... you can get them from just about any place and they will be good. :-) Just ask for them Chicago style if you like lots of toppings.

Giordano's and Uno's get crowded with tourists, but Carmen's has some of the best crust around. It's also a true 'local' place. If you are planning on ordering a stuffed pizza make sure not to come starving- they can take… Lakeshore Drive |

We had to get some amazing deep dish pizza at Giordanos and also made it to the Creparie, an adorable french crepe restaurant. I could probably say that we walked all that food off though... even though Chicago's public transporation is awesome, we still did a ton of walking, especially when we walked… Chi-Town |

We stopped a block away from the theater to eat at Giordano's. Which was absolutely the most amazing pizza EVER. We cooled off in there for a bit then continued on our way. We got to the theater around 5:35 and the doors opened at 6:00. We finally got to our seat and you could… Chicago in less than 24 hours! |

So I've been hearing about this place being famous for its deep dish pizza, so me and Yuefan decided to head on over to Giordano's, who claims to be the best in Chicago. We ordered an incredible amount of pizza, and my appetite froze after eating only four pizzas. Yeah... weak I know, but this walking around in the freezing weather made me go insane... and also… DAY 3. 10:25PM |

Another fellow and I were both told we should eat at Giordano's and I'm grateful we heeded the suggestion. We had to wait 45 minutes to be seated and another 20 minutes for the pizza to arrive at our table even though we pre-ordered it, but it was well worth the wait. I've been… Chicago 2006 |
