We really enjoyed Giordano's. As we were staying at the Peninsula right next door and could actually see the bright red sign from our window, we just had to try their deep dish. From our wonderful server who had great recommendations and was knowledgeable about the menu, to the manager who checked up on us, to the ambiance of the place and the delicious deep dish pizza, everything was five stars and I would visit again when I return to the great city of Chicago. read more

Probably 3.5. This place was good, but I definitely had way too high of expectations going in. The pizza came out not super warm, and the veggies inside didn't taste completely as cooked as I would've liked. The bread was great though, and the cheese was really good. I think if it would've come warmer it would've been much better. The service however was good, and we enjoyed the bruschetta and garlic bread! read more

Just. Awful. Dry. Burnt...and not in a food network chef-y way. Don't recommend. Probably tge worst pizza I've ever had. Both the deep dish and tavern style were both bad. read more

Good deep dish pizza! Giordano's pizza is very thick and cheesy. Apart from the fact it sells pizza for $30 and has long waits for their take-out; their pizza is a delicious, calorie rich, deep Chicago pie. Both sauce and dough are tasty. It's also a classic restaurant! Review: 5 read more

Last time I was here I got a deep dish but i am not a fan so i did not get that this time. Place Great ambiance. Though the wait is pretty long, the friendly service makes up for that! So does the food! read more

Giordano's is a must-visit classic if you're in the Windy City and craving deep dish pizza. It's absolutely delicious and lives up to its reputation. The only downside is that it can get quite busy, especially around dinner time on weekends or when there is a big event nearby, so be prepared for a 30 to 60 minute wait to be seated on busy evenings. read more

3stars for food 1 star for lunch meal combos I've been waiting a long time to try Giordano's in Chicago and now I did! There were a good amount of customers but still plenty of seating, place is pretty huge so it can accommodate larger parties (like 6 to 8) Bonnie C and I came around lunch time to take advantage of their Lunch Combo Personal Deep Dish Pizza w/ Sausage + House Salad: this was the perfect size for me. It's a good amount of toppings to pizza ratio too and it might just be me who doesn't love super cheesy items so I thought this item was 3.5/5 haha Would come back to try other lunch combo items though! read more

First time in Chicago so I had to get the deep dish. I'm not usually a fan of deep dish I usually like a thin crust. I ordered the special deep dish and it was so good. The crust is thin and light the sauce was flavorful. It was loaded with sausage mushrooms, peppers, and onions. Service was excellent. Pizza took 40 min to cook but was well worth the wait. I enjoyed a beer while watching the game on the tv's inside. read more

Giordano's - The Special - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Not my favorite pizza in the city. The veg pizza was really greasy when we got it. Not a huge fan. But so many of my friend's love it, will probably give it another try. The atmosphere and staff are lovely though! Gave a few different locations a try. read more

Not bad but not a stop I'd make again. Now we did not come here for deep dish - we came for thin pizza. We are not huge deep dish fans but seems like most people come for deep dish, but it gives tourist trap vibes. Service was decent and the starting salad was nice. The cheesy bread was not very good and the thin crust pizza was giving chuckie cheese with so much cheese it was almost a bit off putting. The wine selection was good but the old fashion is definitely a pass. read more

I'm sorry to my Lou Malnati fans, but it is of my personal opinion that Giordano's has the best deep dish pizza in Chicago! Obviously it ranges per location, but Giordano's is the best staple place to experience deep dish Chicago pizza. Yes the wait for the pizza is long, but good things take time and they do warn you of that when you walk in so it is to be expected. We were welcomed by a very friendly waitress who was attentive to our needs even though it was lunch hour and it was busy. The ambiance is great as it is full of people who are trying deep dish for the first time or want to experience it again. The cheese pull of our Chicago style pizza was awesome, and it was just filled with quality ingredients while having the perfect amount of cheese to it. Overall, very tasty and enjoyable. read more

The client services on the nationwide Giordanos shipping is awful. They do not pack the pizzas properly and in three cases on orders, the cheese melted and spoiled. I tried one last time and in this case, when the order was incorrect on their website, for two additional pizzas, i contacted them, prior to shipping and they said it was my problem and it was never corrected. Malnatis does a much better job in not only packing their pizzas for nationwide delivery, but their client service is superb. read more

Great service and awesome food ask Matt for service we had deep dish pizza and the sauce made the pizza great

When in Chicago, I feel like it's a must to get a deep dish pizza. Be prepared--it takes a while to be ready. Since the pizza is so thick, one slice is quite filling. We ordered a few pizzas for the table, and our group also got some calamari. It tasted fine. I'm not sure if I love deep dish pizza that much, but I'm usually not a pizza lover, so I'm not the best judge. However, the service was nice. Spacious spot that we were able to easily get a table for 10, and they even took a group picture for us with what looks to be a nice camera (if I'm remembering correctly). You can also purchase prints as a souvenir. Definitely worth a visit, especially for tourists. read more

3rd visit over the last 20 years, we don't get to Chicago much but the deep dish was as good as it was on the first visit. We knew going in the pizzas took 45 Mina, so if you're going with kids plan a wait time. The pies are worth the wait. Our server was attentive and engaging which was nice. It was a Monday night but they were still busy. We split a entree portion of a ceasar salad and it was just enough. We will definitely go back, we've tried the other popular named deep dish places in town, Giordanos is by far the best. read more

Giordano's - #1 in the Windy City. - Pizza Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

One of my favorite parts about Chicago is the amazing deep dish pizza so when I visited this time I decided to drop by Giordano's but I left disappointed. The ambiance and service were great. The waitress I had was extremely nice and attentive. The food is the main focus however and it just seemed to be lacking. It tasted as though it was just cold tomato sauce and cheese. The Caesar salad was great but that's not really what anyone is looking for when visiting Giordano's. Overall I'm hoping this was just a bad experience at Giordano's but for being such a major location for deep dish pizza I was pretty disappointed in the food. read more

CLASSIC Chicago deep dish 'za. From the line out the door to options on the menu, I could tell it was going to be worth it (you can order while waiting for a table because the pizza takes ~45 min to bake). Grab the fork and knife and get to eating because this pizza easily serves 3 hungry diners. There's something about deep dish in the heart of the Windy City that puts up a fight against New York thin crust. read more

I got the lunch special. Good deal. Didn't live up to expectations but the deep dish is good

Let's boycott this Giordano's in Beverly and let's shut them down permanently this restaurant took her order yesterday supposed to be delivered 12:30 p.m. today they deliver it at 7:00 p.m. at night when no one's at the automotive shop these folks are idiots up there they have no clue what they're doing boycott this Giordano's in Beverly and let's shut them down read more

Came in for a quick bite while in the city, had to get authentic Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza! I asked the bartender how long they had a lunch menu and it's a post Covid 19 creation. It's such a good deal $12.99 - main item/ side. Perfect for 1 person! The restaurant is really nice and they have carry out/ bar/ and dining in seating. read more

We were visiting Chicago with my family and had lunch here. I would definitely go again and the area this one is located is nice. We order 2 pizzas and spaghettis for my 7y/o. Good flavor, my son finished it all! The service was good but be prepared to wait for your pizza. read more

What can I say that hasn't already been said about Giordano's: Simply the BEST when it comes to stuffed pizza. It's the place where all out-of-town guests are treated for dinner by my family. Moreover, it's my family's favorite pizza establishment as well. Giordano's salads and appetizers are highly recommended as well. read more

Server let me know individual size not really the deep dish experience so I ordered a small meats pizza. Really took about 45m to make but it was absolutely wonderful with great cheese and toppings to crust ratio. Managed to eat only a few slices and had them package rest for takeout along with plates, utensils and napkins. Great service. Reheated slices in hotel microwave for 90s for breakfast each morning. Not crispy crust but still very tasty. read more

On my list of Chicago staples! Came here straight from airport in a Thursday. Restaurant was clean, bar/ pizzeria style. Ok so it takes about 45 mins to make a deep dish, so order an appetizer or don't come starving like I did. Ordered buffalo wings and garlic parm fries to start. Deep dish was pepperoni and sausage. First time trying and it was good, I am from up North so a lot different from NY style pizza. Definitely worth trying. I will say that the fountain drinks were not good. Water tasted like it had soda residue and sprite was almost flat. Overall checking it off my list of Chicago things! read more

Worst service, communication, and transparency ever. They communicated that a pizza would take 45 minutes. Reasonable, we said. It took double the time and was meh. Do not waste your time here! Also, the server was not great at communicating with us what is causing the delay. AVOID! To clarify, I do not blame the servers. It is obvious that, on peak, the management needs to hire more people to deal with the demand. They have poor insight. read more

First time try Chicago style deep dish pizza. Not sure I'm a huge fan of fan. We also got wings, calamari, and parmesan garlic fries. Everything was very average. I'd definitely recommend trying a more local pizza joint if you're looking for better quality food. read more

Almost 30 years ago, I lived a block away from this Giordano's and I was a regular: eating here once a week or a few times a month. The place has gone through major renovations and expansion since then but had the opportunity to bring family back here after a few years without visiting. Worth the effort. No one does deep dish Chicago style stuffed pizza like Giordano's. We had the Italian sausage, mushrooms, onions and peppers combination. Tasted just like my memory said it should. Place was very busy on a Monday, but only a short wait. Took the opportunity to order while waiting. Had the calamari as an appetizer while waiting and it too was excellent. Service was fast and efficient. Family vibe and low key. A bit loud but that did not bother us. Place is full of energy. My college-aged kiddo says only tourists go to get deep dish. Not a Chicago native but I disagree. Place was filled with tourists, business folks and locals. If you want great pizza with a long Chicago tradition, this is a great spot. read more

Giordano's Pizza Rush street Restaurant was clean bathrooms clean. I guess Chicago doesn't believe in seat covers in the bathroom.

After a failed dining experience with the other famous pizzeria in town, we decided to try Giordano's before leaving for our flight. We are so glad that we did and we wished that we had gone here instead during the first time we wanted to get some deep dish pizza. The pizza was cooked to perfection and it tasted so good! The serving was also big and even the calamari was scrumptious! Service in this location was very efficient. We had gone during lunch time and was told there will be a 15 minute wait time. To our surpise, we were seated right away. Hoping to come back soon and try the best pizza in Chicago again! read more

I know, I know....everyone says this is the touristy place for pizza. Well I was a tourist in Chicago and this place was amazing! Please don't hate. Last year while visiting Chicago we had pizza at Pequod's and enjoyed every bite of their crispy deep dish crust. This year, we wanted to try that true Chicago deep dish. Giordano's delivered! We started off with a cesar salad and the crispy calamari, both were tasty and held us over while that deep dish pizza baked away in the kitchen. When that pizza arrived, I knew it was on. We of course got the cheese pull on video. We ate and ate so much pizza and enjoyed every bite. The crust, the sauce, the cheesy ooey gooey.....perfection. read more

Medium pizza took just over an hour to get to our table. First time here. Pizza tasted like something frozen or at a school cafeteria. Completely overpriced. Visiting Chicago and expecting great pizza this was a complete disappointment. Wait staff was completely overwhelmed, covering too much. The table next to us asked to cancel their pizza order after waiting. They were seated before us. Seriously lacked flavor, plain tomato sauce. read more

Very busy and difficult to get a table if you walk up. At least for dinner. We went to the bar and got seats pretty quickly. You can eat at the bar. For two, that's a very nice option. And being Chicago, the other patrons are quite friendly. So, bar seating was great. We came for the Chicago style deep dish. Giordano's and Lou Malnati's are the two most famous. When I was in college in the 80s, we always went to Giordano's. So I went back to what I knew. We had a spinach. The pizza was excellent as were the drinks. Bar service was fast and the other patrons were friendly. I have no idea about parking as we walked from our hotel. read more

Food was great and pizza was good as expected. It is extremely filling. We did order the sampler and it was very large, which made it too hard for us to finish our pizza. IF U WANT TO FINISH UR STUFFED PIZZA, I RECOMMEND NOT ORDERING AN APPETIZER. The pizza cheese pull is insane when it is hot by the way! Service was decent. My one complaint was that the waiter was a bit slow and not attentive. I was very thirsty and had to wait for quite a bit to get another drink when I ran out. I think it was since I signaled some worker who didn't speak English very well and he asked our main worker for help. The waiter was very kind though. Ambiance is nice and homey. I liked the holiday decor read more
