Numero Uno Deep Dish (9" Small)
Adrienne A.

This was our first stop after checking into our hotel in Chicago, we figured we might as well start off with deep dish right off the bat and they were still open, since we got in fairly late in the evening. Our waiter was great, loved overhearing some of the other older guys work there talking in their thick Chicago accents hahaha. All the food was delicious, I tried a local beer (Begyle Boat Shoes - closest thing I could get that was local while also being lager-like), salad was great and the pizza (honestly, CAKE lol) was so good! We both only ate one slice and ate the rest later it had a very local pub feel which was great, definitely recommend!

Ordered takeout for this place. I haven't been here in many years and was in the area. Ordered the Special Salad Bowl with Italian chopped salad, giardinera, pepperoni, mozzarella chunks, tomatoes and had lot of onions. Was a nice full portion but they didn't provide the dressing so had a very dry salad. Ordered also the Windy City Works pizza with onions, peppers, mushrooms, bacon, burger meat, pepperoni, sausage, 3 cheese - mozzarella, cheddar, pecorino. The pizza was a salt bomb and almost inedible. This place has a lot of nostalgic memories for me and honestly, it should've remained a memory. I wanted to like this place as much as I did years ago but there are much better places for pizza nowadays.

Personal-size of The Original Chicago Deep-Dish Pizza at Pizzeria Due! Served "Uno per Due" (if you like my play on words...)
Rich S.

Pizzeria Due is "The" original Chicago Deep Dish pizza! Ok, well, they opened first in 1943 down the block at Pizzeria Uno :-) They expanded with Due in 1955. Same difference. We stopped into this old Victorian for a weekend lunch (May 2026), and had our pizza in the style of an old Italian meal, the same dish prepared for the two of us: Uno per Due! Deep, buttery crust, luscious chunky sauce with savory lightly-spiced sausage ... with the cheese in between the crust and the sauce! Back in the day, it was my first deep-dish pizza, and it's still the one I judge them by. Uno's does ok in their franchises, but the original restaurants are the best. Nevermind exactly whoever among the original Uno"s staff actually invented this not-south Italy not-thin-NY-pizza. There's some controversy (and marketing) there. But it was the first, and the founders of both Gino's East and Lou Malnati's (supposedly) worked at Uno's before starting their own! This is Great pizza in a City of Great pizza. Get your tasty original historic deep-dish pizza here!

Thin crust sausage pizza

They're slam packed, but still smiled and greeted and seated me. I got an adult drink. (Not the heaviest pour, but that's okay) My pizza is delicious... it's the perfect thin crust, not burnt (I hate burnt crust). You can faintly taste the fresh tomatoes they used in the sauce, the individual cheeses, separate , and then together... and then the sausage kicks in. I'm not a huge fan of the sausage... I should've got just cheese I'd be back. The service was great

Numero Uno Deep Dish (6" Individual)
Katherine K.

I used to work at one of UNO's locations and I was fully expecting DUE to be right on par. Unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to that level. Started with the Chicago Mule and Blueberry Mule. Both were very nice and well-balanced. For dinner, we got the Numero Uno and The Chicagoan. My guy has never had deep dish pizza before and he really enjoyed both pizzas, but preferred numero uno. The Chicagoan was my favorite of the two. I loved a good giardiniera! I was disappointed with how flakey the crust was. The pizza would just fall apart with every bite making it really hard to eat. Just overall average in terms of flavor. Service was great, though, so they're winning on that front. Someone was taking photos so we got ours taken. They used the worst one as the complimentary photo, but we liked the animated one they made of us. $20 was a bit much for it tho.

Another great meal. We were in town visiting family for Thanksgiving. Had to some downtown to get our fix on the best deep dish. We always park at the garage by Unos. But we did come on Black Friday and UNOs was packed. So we went to Dues and there was no wait. We got the medium for 4 adults. We got pepperoni with sausage and half mushrooms. Such a classic! Always a good time at UNOs or Dues. This was my husband's first time at Dues. We had a great time and the servers are amazing as always. Just know the bathrooms are tight for ladies in the stalls. My dad and I had Cruz Blanca Mexican lager so yummy! And we had to do another! Prefect starting spot to do some Black Friday shopping

This review is for a corporate event. We did a pizza making class, which was pretty affordable - $55 PP for a personal pie, one beer/wine, soda, and salad. The pizza making was rather simple - all you do is stretch the dough out to cover a pan then fill it with topping. So the interactive part is probably like ... 5 minutes TBH. I wish it was a bit more interactive - maybe show how to make the dough? The pizza turned out like a solid chicago pizza. Service was friendly.

This was my first attempt at Chicago Deep Dish and what better place to try it at than the creator's restaurant! The pizza was perfectly cooked and served at the optimal temperature. The atmosphere was very inviting and our server was extremely attentive. I would recommend many times over! Now this isn't your typical fast food pizza so it will take time for your food to be cooked but IT'S WORTH THE WAIT!!!!

Came by at 11am for a slice. Was met by friendly staff. Was pretty empty since it was the start of the day. There's plenty of seating options. Some outside. Some on top and some they call down stairs but really it's all on the same plane. Food came out quick. It was a cheese deep dish and it's always encouraged to call ahead. The cheese on it was delicious. It was the right texture and consistency. Gooey but not overpowering. I can only imagine what the supreme deep dish or others would taste like! I asked the staff the story behind the place and they also gave me a quick lesson. Happy I came!

Super delicious pizza! The service was good. It took a while for the pizza to come but we were told ahead of time how long it would take. It's like a small mom & pop vibe. I would recommend for a more chill atmosphere.

Pizzeria Uno and Due are sister restaurants 1 block apart, supposedly the home of Chicago original deep dish pizza back in 1943. Great local classic ambiance and it's hard to beat the literal original pizza recipe. Even Lou Malnati himself used to work at Uno! Due is the less crowded sister location serving the same food as Uno so great place to avoid crowds.

Cheesy Italian beef yummy
Regena K.

What can I say great pizza and I went out on a limb this day for something different near the office. So I wondered how's the beef at Due. So happy I did, among walking in to pick up my order the server knew who I was by name and took care of me. The beef: OMG SOOOOO MUCH flavor with the sweet peppers and yes I always have cheese at pizza places cause they use the best and place in pizza oven! Hot peppers and au jus on side...DELICIOUS!! Comes with a side salad! Try it!

Food was so late
Barbie B.

I recently visited this restaurant and unfortunately had a disappointing experience. On top of that, my order arrived quite late. I wouldn't recommend this place based on my experience.

This is one of those places that feels frozen in time -- in a good way. The wood‑paneled coziness,…read morethe dim lighting, the slightly chaotic entryway where a host with a clipboard controls the fate of your evening... it all sets the tone for a meal that's equal parts ritual and indulgence. They push the Mediterranean Bread, and honestly, you should let them. It's enormous, blistered, fragrant, and arrives like a hot air balloon made of carbs. More importantly, it gives you something genuinely delicious to tear into while you wait for the pizza pot pies to emerge from whatever subterranean chamber they're baked in. It's both a starter and a survival tool. A reservation is non‑negotiable unless you enjoy contemplating your own mortality in a weekend crowd. The wait times can stretch so long you could starve to death before your name is called -- and the regulars will nod knowingly as they step around your skeleton. Plan ahead. The salads are comically oversized, the kind of portions that make you wonder if they're meant for a family of four or a single very determined marathon runner. But let's be honest: no one is here for lettuce. We're all here for the pizza pot pie, that molten, bread‑wrapped, cheese‑laden dome of joy that defies every attempt at categorization. It's not deep dish, it's not thin crust -- it's its own thing entirely, and that's the point. This is the place you bring out‑of‑town guests when you want to show them something uniquely Chicago without defaulting to the usual deep‑dish suspects. But it's also the place you come back to on your own, because once you've had that pizza pot pie, it lives rent‑free in your brain until you return.

He recommended some great items on the menu, checked in at just the right times without ever hovering, and somehow managed to get our food out incredibly quickly. The best part, though, was his sense of humor. He had the whole table laughing with his witty jokes and made the meal even more enjoyable. And that Irish accent? It deserves a 5-star review on its own. We're not sure if it's included with the service, but it definitely made everything taste better! A huge thank you to Adam for making our visit so memorable. Great food, even better service, and we'll definitely be back. If you're lucky enough to have Adam as your server, you're in for a fantastic meal and a few laughs too!

I got there and there was about 15 people in front of me in line. The hostess was really nice and because I was there by myself, she called up to the bar to see if there was any seats at the bar so I didn't have to wait. I found out that Chicago style pizza takes about 45 minutes to cook, but I was willing to wait. After about an hour I asked where the pizza was, and they said "we lost it". Although I was disappointed that I had waited so long , they were accommodating and apologetic, and took ownership, which I really respected and appreciated. They said they could get me another pizza quicker than 45 minutes, so in total I waited about an hour and a half. They asked me if there's any appetizers I wanted for free or drinks and because I didn't wanna fill up before my pizza and I had already had a salad , I declined. The pizza came out and it was absolutely delicious. Was it worth the wait? Because I didn't have anything else that evening for a while that I needed to do, it was worth it. If I had been in a rush, it would've been a different story. The hostess, the bartender/waiter and the manager were all very nice and attentive. I had a great time at the bar socializing with people from different parts of the country. I would definitely recommend Giordano's.

I went here for the first time right after they opened and I am HAPPY to report it still holds up…read more I genuinely love their tavern style crust. It's not as thick as other places, but it's perfectly cracker crust. They also have one of my new favorite salads in the city, which is the Sunday salad. My mom and I both agree that we hate when a restaurant is lazy with their salad and this one has so many toppings and good stuff. The ricotta gnocchi was decent but I'd skip next time. Service was fine, but the vibes are just really solid here and I think it's such a good spot in the area. It is a bit loud upstairs in the bar area and I do prefer the speakeasy but both serve different purposes.
