    Very veggie deep dish pizza
    Monica J.

    I was greeted with a smile when I entered the door, for my pickup. The pizza was actually good ordered the very veggie and it was loaded with veggies . When we went to heat it up the next day, the crust stuck to the cardboard. I made sure that it was completely cooled before putting it in the fridge as instructed on the box , so I'm not really sure why it stuck like that

    We were very disappointed in this location. Seriously, why you serve a lukewarm warm deep dish pizza to customers? I'm convinced our pizza was frozen and they just heated it up but did a terrible job of it. We ate In restaurant and they delivered right to our table so it should have been hot and fresh. We've had Giordano's in Chicago and remember it being fantastic and worth $35 a pie but this was gross.

    Love this lighted sign!

    We had a fab family meal here and everyone was wowed by the authentic Chicago deep dish pizza! We shared the appetizer assortment to help pass the time while our pizza baked. Everyone loved all the apps! We got the deep dish in cheese, pepperoni and Margarita. All were amazing! Service was friendly. It was a great time. We will be back!

    Pizza!

    Chicago style is the way to go! Best pizza I've ever had! Super friendly staff and great atmosphere!

    Super Veggie Thin Crust Pizza
    Mr S.

    It was fantastic! Nice workers. They had our order ready ahead of time since we had a big group. The worker cut the first slice of deep dish and we were amazed watching the thick cheese stretch a foot in the air and thwack back in place. The thin crust was the perfect crunch and I couldn't stop grabbing another slice! The whole family enjoyed it. We even got a good family picture at the end.

    Went for dinner and our choices we made were outstanding. From the pitcher of Blue Moon, sharing the salad and consuming the amazing pizza, everything was delicious! Service was excellent and ambiance inviting. We ordered a meat lovers deep dish pizza and Caesar salad. Had enough pizza leftovers for two meals! So glad we went for eat in because we all enjoyed the experience!

    Chicago Style

    This is some great pizza! I am traditionally a thinner crust, New York style pizza guy so this is a different experience for me. The crust is done and has a crispness to it, even on the bottom. It is heavenly, cheesy goodness! The service was great and they had awesome recommendations for appetizers and I loved every one of them! Don't sleep on the fries and ranch! The ambiance is nice and reminds me of a pizza joint! Bottom line, this is great pizza regardless of whether you like this style or not!

    The Special Deep Dish Pizza

    We used the online ordering system and everything was a breeze. When I went to pick up, the workers were nice. We got the Special Deep Dish. Like all deep dishes, this had a healthy amount of cheese. 10/10 cheese pull. I'm not sure if it's possible, but I think the crust could have used a little garlic butter and I will ask to see if that's possible next time.

    We went there on a Friday evening, and as expected, it was busy. The staff was friendly, which made a difference during the wait. It took about an hour to get our deep dish pizza. We ordered the Meat and More deep dish pizza, and oh my goodness -- it was absolutely delicious! I'd hate to say it, but it was worth waiting for. There was two of us and we got the smallest pie (12 " ) we ate half of it and got so full, so we had left overs to take back home.

    Pizzas were good, nothing spectacular!!! It takes about 45 minutes for the Meat Deep Dish Pizza!!! Cheesy breadsticks were also good!!!! Staff friendly with good service!!! Very cold in the dining room!!! Clean place with a nice sign on the wall!! Would recommend if you like to try Chicago type pizza or just want something different!!!

    Ask the Community - Giordano's

    When did this Giordano's location at Polaris Parkway open up? I had no idea they were in Columbus? I've been to the Chicago location several times.

    Close to 2 years. They also have locations in:… 

    Would the dough be considered vegan?

    I would call and ask the restaurant. Most dough has eggs in it, which isn't vegan, obviously, yet I'm not sure of their recipe.

    Any gluten free choices?

    They have gluten free crust

    Is anyone else having trouble ordering online from Columbus?

    i tried yesterday evening, and it said that they couldn't take any more orders for the day. today it won't even let me put items in the cart for this location. but i callled, and after waiting for 7.5 mins. someone picked up and i placed an order.

    When will this location be opening?

    WOW. So I had a…read moremedical appointment up in Westerville & as usual, due to health issues, couldn't eat before it -- which means I would be hungry & cranky by the time it was over. Husband came with me, and we were trying to find a reasonably inexpensive restaurant with good food. A quick search turned up a lot of *expensive* restaurants in the Polaris area, and restaurants that we weren't into at that point, but then I saw Agape' listed right near the Ohio Health offices up there. So I did what any sane hungry person would do -- I asked the nurses & techs at Ohio Health who were involved in the procedure, "Hey, that Agape place nearby? Any good?" (seriously, medical people are going to know the good eateries nearby -- they get a ton of delivery because they're always busy & they aren't going to mess around with a crappy eating place for their lunch breaks). I got an immediate "OH HELL YEAH" and enthusiastic recommendations from not only the folks who were involved in my medical stuff, but also the desk staff, other nurses/techs, etc etc. That's an amazing sign -- a place that gets immediate "OH MY GOD YES" when you ask folks at random if it's any good. So, my medical procedure over, we went to Agape'. OH MY GOD, YES. OH HELL YEAH. First, it's a chain, but it's a LOCAL chain, founded & based here in Columbus OH with only a few locations around the city at the moment. They seem to have focused on taking over the old/defunct Chipotle locations (Chipotle's mostly gone belly-up here), and repurposing it for their Greek/Mediterannean concept. Let me be clear for the folks in the back: AGAPE' IS NOT OWNED BY CHIPOTLE & HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM. They're Columbus-local, & MORE POWER TO THEM. Agape' works like Chipotle -- select your base (salad, fresh pita bread, bowl), select your protein, select your sauces/spreads, load up on the fillings, and DAMMIT GET THE GREEK FRIES, THEY'RE SO FREAKIN' AWESOME...:cough: sorry. So both Husband and I had pita gyros with various different fillings and then made the "mistake" of ordering 2 portions of Greek Fries, one for each of us. FYI, those portions are BIG. One order of Greek Fries is more than enough for two people, but who cares, we've got leftover Greek Fries in the fridge for a snack later... :cough: sorry. The food is that good. We had to wait a bit for fresh pita (but who cares? FRESH HOT PITA!!!), all the fillings & protein & THOSE FRIES were fresh, hot, tasty, filling & just go ahead and add any other complimentary adjectives here, because Agape' deserves it. They took the Chipotle concept, improved it, ran with it, and GOD, I hope they succeed & stay the course, because I have regular medical stuff up in Westerville, and I really need a good inexpensive place to eat after those appointments are done. (My only minimal gripe -- no Clintonville location. Yet. The Westerville location is about 20 minutes up the road for us; the next closest seems to be out in Gahanna. But don't rush to expand, Agape' -- expanding too fast, too soon can sink a business hard. Take your time & focus on that glorious Greek food. AND THOSE FRIES.) Oh, and the baklava was PERFECT, too. ;)

This was the first time we've had the opportunity to try new dishes before they actually appeared on the regular menu, which made the evening especially interesting. Cindy and I ordered both preview entrées and split them so we could try each one, with the plan from the beginning to take about half of each home for lunch tomorrow. The Calabrian Chili & Sausage Flatbread was excellent, with sweet Italian sausage, Calabrian chilis, tomato sauce, mozzarella, provolone, ricotta, fresh basil and hot honey. Although it's called a flatbread, it eats much like a thin-crust pizza, which I liked since I'm trying to cut back a little on carbs. The Calabrian chilis definitely make their presence known! After a few slices I adjusted to the heat and loved the combination of flavors. I think this could be near the upper end of the heat range for some people. Cindy thought it was too hot for her, while I would definitely order it again. Interestingly, although they call it hot honey, the honey itself really isn't hot. It does add some moisture underneath the flatbread, but I didn't have much trouble eating it by hand. The Meatloaf Patty Melt was another winner. The meatloaf was moist, tender and almost melt-in-your-mouth. It has caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, Frisco mayo and crispy onion straws. I especially liked getting the onion flavor in two different textures, with the caramelized onions blending into the tender meatloaf and the crispy onion straws adding some crunch. There's a lot happening in this sandwich, and I found that cutting it in half first made it much easier to handle. Excellent flavor! I chose the Roasted Street Corn Pasta Salad as my side, and it was OUTSTANDING. The pasta appeared to be orzo, along with roasted corn, crumbled white cheese, chopped green herbs and a creamy dressing. We couldn't get the complete ingredient list, but whatever they're doing works. Great flavor and texture, and definitely not your typical mayonnaise-heavy pasta salad. Then we made the terrible mistake of letting our server, Kaitlyn, tell us about the dessert options. That resulted in ordering the Coffee & Doughnut Crème Brûlée with two beignets. For uncultured people like me, I learned that crème brûlée basically means "burnt cream," referring to that caramelized sugar crust on top. Who knew? Apparently Cindy did. The crème brûlée was excellent. I could definitely detect the coffee flavor. I couldn't really identify a "doughnut" flavor, although Cindy says she could. The two beignets (basically light, fried pastries dusted with powdered sugar) were great. I scooped up some of the crème brûlée, put it on a beignet and took a bite. THAT worked! Cindy normally doesn't care much for crème brûlée, but even she thought this one was pretty good. Kaitlyn told us the Coffee & Doughnut Crème Brûlée is definitely her favorite dessert at 101, and I can understand why. More importantly, her service throughout the evening was OUTSTANDING. She was attentive, friendly and extremely conversational. We learned that she's in her fifth year serving in the Army, and has applied to get into a field that...well, apparently we can't talk about. Both preview entrées were excellent, the Roasted Street Corn Pasta Salad was a standout, dessert was excellent, and Kaitlyn made an already enjoyable evening even better. We're looking forward to seeing these dishes on the new seasonal menu October 13!

Vince was our server, and everything came out nice and hot. We tried the Smoked & Grilled Wings, Street Corn & Ricotta Dip, and the house Mac & Cheese. The wings were cooked well and had good flavor, but I definitely would've liked a little more sauce on them. The Street Corn & Ricotta Dip was my favorite. The guacamole tasted really fresh, and I loved that they put it right on top of the corn instead of mixing everything together. The tortilla chips were fresh and crispy too. The Mac & Cheese was good, but it wasn't your typical cheddar mac and cheese. It had more of a creamy white-cheese flavor with penne and breadcrumbs, so just know it's a different take if you're expecting traditional mac. Overall, it was a nice little Saturday stop while we were out running errands. Good service from Vince, hot food, and a relaxed atmosphere. I'd definitely stop in again to try some other appetizers.

But I do remember is one of them combo But first thing first, the two ladies behind the counter is really nice and friendly, I love dealing with an adult instead of those younger generation that don't care for their customers, just show up for their paycheck, if you know what I mean. Lady that serving me asked if I need some suggestion or help for recommendations, very nice and friendly. I ordered (once again I can't remember the name). The sandwich itself is very good, came with side of fruit as you can see on my photo, like I mentioned before, is a good healthy lunch, not too big of the portion. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because couple of my grapes gone bad, they should have checked and take them out before serving to the customer. Because they claim they make the orders when it comes in, so the kitchen should have spot it Overall, definitely recommend and will go back
