Y KimApril 6, 2015Don't feel responsible to go just because you are a tourist. Not the best option for healthy food lovers at all.
Global HighlanderAugust 11, 2014Probably a long wait to get a seat. The pizza is pretty good. The service is just okay.
Liz BognerDecember 29, 2010Don't wait for your friends--if you can be seated, they can find you later. Just got set back an hour because of that...
Food & WineMay 11, 2011The original location opened more than three decades ago by two brothers from Torino.
Christopher BurdickSeptember 20, 2011Giordano's is a close second to Lou's in my hierarchy of deep-dish.
Brian MegilliganJuly 1, 2013It takes 40 minutes to make a pizza. Be ready to wait! Sneaky way for them to get you to spend $$ on appetizers.
Katie SchaferJuly 25, 2009Have a rum and coke while waiting to be seated. Order a meat lovers. Don't forget fried mushrooms as an appetizer.
KimmiJuly 7, 2013Hour and 15 min wait for pizza. Waitress was pushy and rude and wouldn't let us leave and go walk around until the pizza was done....hope the pizza is amazing at least...
Mike DAugust 15, 2012I'll try to not let my visit here taint my visit to Chicago, but may leave disappointed....
William BakerAugust 10, 2010Wait time was estimated at 3hrs, ended up being 1.5hrs. Fried mushrooms were excellent, calamari was "meh." Pizza was (as I was told) excellent and definitely something to be experienced while in Chic
Courtney ChristensenMarch 8, 2011Came in on a tues afternoon. Great stuffed pizza...ungodly slow service and rude staff. Guess when u think ur the best it goes to your head...
Hal SparksMay 17, 2012Don't bring checkers and start playing on the table... They hate that... Chess is okay... And never play UNO.. They get all emotional about it
Lucas BlancoJanuary 16, 2010Wow! Cheese Garlic Tomato Bread. Very good appetizer. Ready for the Special.
Michael GiesenMarch 27, 2010Sausage & Pepperoni Deep Dish Pizza w/ a Sam Adams; just do it...treat yourself!
Pablo ChavezMarch 30, 2014SLOWEST RESTAURANT EVER. I hope that the stuffed pizza will compensate the 1,5 hours waiting (so far).
- Mike DAugust 15, 2012Be prepared to wait and wait and wait after your order. 45+ minutes on an uncrowded Tuesday night for a single small pie...

"Beautiful views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Fun shops to check out. A bit touristy, but worth a trip if you're visiting Chicago."
Greg Wilcox - 8.3
"Not as good as the Belgian chocolatiers but the most popular one in the USA. Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate is awesome and highly recommended!"
