My first time eating at Georgio's Chicago Pizzeria, and it has such a friendly, family vibe…read more It takes about 20-30 minutes for them to make a deep-dish pizza but it is totally worth the wait. We ordered some calamari and chicken wings to start, and both were delicious! Then we ordered two deep-dish pizzas: Mama Primavera, which came with spinach, mushrooms, tomato, green peppers, garlic, and onion. Also got the Papa one which comes with sausage, mushroom, onion, green peppers, pepperoni, and bacon. So between the two mama is like a vegetarian style and Papa's has meat. The sizes are huge and we probably should have ordered a smaller size. Next time! Overall it was tasty and I would come back!

Hands down, our favorite pizza spot. Giorgio's is our go-to, and the location couldn't be…read morebetter--literally right across from the train station, which makes it perfect if you're coming in for a fun train ride or meeting friends downtown. Being right in downtown Crystal Lake just adds to the character and charm. Their deep dish pizza is outstanding. I'd argue it's one of the best deep dishes I've ever had. Just a heads up...give yourself some time. It takes about 45 minutes to an hour for a deep dish, but it's absolutely worth the wait. The staff is always friendly, and the whole experience just feels like a classic local favorite done right. If you're in Crystal Lake and craving pizza, this is the spot.

I am a…read moreLake Geneva type of guy and sorry not sorry Lake Geneva but our pizza sucks and none of it is worth talking about. So whenever I am around this spot I practically run to it. This is a nice cozy spot with New York style thin crust being the main draw here. They serve more than just pizza but trust me you come here for the pizza. They have slices up front that are put into an oven right upfront as well before serving ensuring a crispy and warm slice. We got a 14 inch cheese pie and got it well done. We didn't even get to eat it at home because we ate it on the way home because we were that excited to eat it! You can expect a light airy crispy slice with a good sauce to cheese ratio as well. This pizza rocks and I recommend it to everyone who comes through this area. I come from a restaurant background that includes management so I was rather impressed by something I saw in there while I was waiting. Every single kid that was in there was working and very attentive to their individual tasks at hand, not a single person just going through the motions or standing around . These kids/employees are coached very very well and it really shows up in the product and their attention to detail. Please come here if you value good pizza and great service!!

It has that true mom-and-pop, local favorite feel that makes you want to keep coming back. Being located right in downtown Cary gives it even more character. The deep dish pizza is fantastic, with a really interesting twist of hot honey that takes it to another level. It's different in the best way. If you're planning to dine in, make sure you give yourself plenty of time. The line for a table can get long, but the staff works incredibly hard to seat everyone as quickly as possible. If you're in more of a rush, I'd definitely recommend carryout--it's absolutely worth the wait either way. A true local gem.

Very cool place! I've heard the hype via Barstool, so…read moretonight when my son played at CGHS, I had to try it. We went basic, large cheese, 45 minutes wait for to go. I had a long commute home, so I left it uncut. It smelled so good, I wish I could have had a piece in the ride home. When we finally made it home after his long bus ride, I cut it and heated up a few slices at 250 in the oven. It was delicious....it would certainly be better fresh. Super crispy crust, sweet sauce without the typical tomato chunks like Lou's would be. Excellent cheese pulls and really flavorful when all the notes are combined. (About $23) The signage is not the best at night, so know it's attached to a meat store, deli like. Once I figure it out I went in to wait. The place was packed at 7:30 on a Wednesday. The bar is in the center left, with the to go pick up at one side. The tables flank all 180 degrees of the bar. Lots of people. Worth the hype, excited for the next 3.5 years of my son playing Cary Grove so we can try the Uncle Jerry's hot pepperoni pizza and the spinach as well. Check them out!

A great place for watching games. There's plenty of TVs tuned into every and any sport. Best thing here is the atmosphere. It's all about the sports. There's a lot to check out on the walls. Framed pictures. Signed jerseys, whatever. Also there's betting updates you can check out that are updated constantly. Lots of beers on tap. It's about $4 for a pint of PBR. There's a few craft beers too. Food is the expected burgers and pizzas. Some healthier options here too. It's about $15 for the Veggie Burger. This has a grilled chipotle black bean patty, topped with avocado, pepper jack which I left off, and pico de gallo, on a vegan pretzel bun, and comes with a side. Of course you can get greasy real burgers. There's also cheese curds, and there's ghost pepper curds at happy hours. Good place to hang out and watch games. It's located in downtown close to the Metra station. There's a few other locations that are pretty much the same thing.
