While I was on business, I decided to come here for dinner. I'm not sure why there were such low reviews. However, the food and service was great. read more

For an appetizer, started out with the hand rolled breaded mozzarella cheese sticks. These panko breaded sticks are the best tasting cheese sticks anywhere, and comes with a perfectly paired delicious marinara sauce for dipping. An order contains 8 large sized sticks, I find it hard to avoid filling up on these before the pizza is brought out! Also had a deep dish build-your-own cheese pizza. This pizza has a unique flavor, mostly due to the crust, I feel like it has kind of a fermented, almost beer-battered flavor to it. Nice option once in awhile for a different taste from the standard cracker or Italian bread type crusts served at other restaurants. For the thin crust pizza, my wife is a big fan, but I drank it about average, so I suppose.its worth giving a try to see what your personal preference is. read more

I haven't had Gino's East in years. I forgot what it tasted like. Me and a friend made the travel to the Wheaton location for some deep dish on a Saturday afternoon. (Pro Tip: Deep Dish takes 30-45 min to prepare, so we called in advanced to dine in). The pizza was pretty good. The sauce was saucy, the cheese was cheesy, and the sausage had good flavor. We did crumbled instead of the patty. The best part was the crust, particularly the edge, it was soft and sweet, really good. The wings not so good, but we're here for pizza. Nice restaurant in nice downtown Wheaton, with plenty of shops and other restaurants. Would definitely recommend going, and I will go again too! read more

Really good deep dish pizza. We had a medium sausage and 1/2 black olive. Prompt delivery and easy order thru Slice.

The thin crust is hard as a rock. The service is not good. The manager is unapologetic and argumentative. This place also seems to attract people with rowdy and screaming children. An overall horrible experience and one I don't wish to repeat any time soon. read more

Came here with a group. Service was ok. Calamari was rubbery. Be patient when ordering a pizza as they do take time to cook. I thought the deep dish was pretty good. read more

I worked at the St Charles location back in 2015. So after coming back to Chicagoland for the first time in 3 years, I longed for that familiar taste of deep dish and this is now the only location operating in the suburbs. My friends and I split a large sausage patty supreme pizza, half without mushrooms. I guess we confused the cook because he came to our table to make sure he understood the order. We appreciated him taking the time to make sure he was making our order correctly. The pizza came out in about 35 minutes and it was cooked very well. Crunchy crumbly crust (which looks like it has cornmeal, but it really doesn't!), great sausage. The tomato sauce did need a little seasoning, I had to add extra Parmesan and oregano to balance out the tomato flavor. To drink, I started with a local draft beer and unfortunately, it wasn't served properly, there was no head whatsoever. Afterwards, I switched to iced tea, and I'm glad it was fresh. Parking is available on the street, if you can grab one or you may have to settle for the garage and pay a few bucks. read more

Gino's East - Wheaton - Sausage patty Supreme - Pizza Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

Gino's East always used to be my FAVORITE pizza place, and it was disappointing when they began closing their locations. To reminisce, my good friend and I visited the Wheaton location for lunch a few weeks ago when she was in town. We each had a personal pizza (sausage, of course) and side salad. We ordered house chips as an appetizer. Everything was actually really good!!! The location was disappointingly sparse during lunch time, though. The interior was dim, but it felt more dingy than anything. Fast forward to last week when I decided to treat my kids to some Gino's. We ordered a Large sausage and chopped salad for Curbside. I'm confused about Curbside, I guess, because our order ended up being marked as "Take Out." I had called, and a nice young man nicely brought out to us in the back parking lot. The pizza itself was a bit underwhelming this time: the sausage was a bit overcooked and tough. My kids turned up their noses at it, so I was stuck eating most of it for the next few days. There could have been worse things, I suppose. Overall, it was just OK. I think I would only take advantage of a lunch special in the future. read more

Well, I've heard a lot of positive and negative things about this restaurant from my friends. So we decided to stop and try out this restaurant. First impression was very nice lay out and super friendly staff. We ordered the garlic bread sticks and "Meaty Legend Deep Dish Pizza ". Well, the waiter was super nice and brought the drinks faster than we expected. However, there was something in the water glass (see clip) and we asked the waiter to have different glass of water, because stuff in the water happened everywhere. Sadly, the second glass of water still have more stuff in it and we didn't bother to ask for another one. Because we didn't know if the waiter really brought different glass of water or not. The garlic bread sticks was okay, but the pizza was great. We will revisit this restaurant in near future and hoping we will not have any problems. Please note, this is my personal experience and it's not intend to discourage you from dine at this restaurant. read more

Vegan Surcharge Ridiculous! We visited Gino's East Pizza for gluten free & vegan pizza. Absolutely Blown away by the vegan aspect. The pizza was good - for vegan and gluten free, it was good - not great but good. The toppings and cheese was about an inch and a half from the edge of the corner. Mainly crust - when we asked why this was when the 'regular' not vegan pizza arrived, we were told it was probably due to the fact that vegan cheese costs more than regular cheese. Now here's the fun part - the bill came.... We were charged $6.50 EXTRA for vegan cheese PER pizza! what?! On top of a $30 pizza to begin with?! Sorry but a vegan pizza for nearly $40 is ridiculous!!!!! Especially when you skimp on the toppings. I will go elsewhere. read more

Shout out to Eddie! Just landed in Chicago and dreaded the drive into downtown, found this location and called to see if I could make it because I'd arrive 30 minutes to closing time. I told Eddie one of my customers said I should try a Chicago deep dish at Gino's, he asked what I liked for toppings and he got it started. When I arrived, Eddie greeted me by name setup a stool at the bar and made me feel very welcomed. The pizza came out, I had a local IPA with it, all good! Pizza was excellent and fed me through my entire trip to Chicago. Eddie even told me about the Sherman Oaks location back home so I can bring my family to try one. We'll see how the Chicago pie compares to the Valley version back in CA. read more

Ok so I've grown up eating Gino's deep dish. I became gluten intolerant 7 years. While visiting my family last week I was told that Gino's has a gluten free crust. Needless to say I was very excited. Well, not all gluten free crust is created equally. Some restaurants make a point of creating their own while others take a shortcut and buy a premade Udi's or Rudi's crust. Gino's either come up with your own, authentic, delicious gluten free crust or don't offer it at all. Huge disappointment! read more

Not all that ! Very dreary inside ! Pizza seemed to have changed!. Last time at Gino's East was in st Charles! So much better! Overall ambience food &.service! Won't see us here again ! To many good pizza places to go to! Step it up Gino's!! read more

I was beyond excited to share this experience with my friend from out of state. So much so, that I called ahead to have the pizza piping hot when I arrived at 5:15. We arrived 5 minutes early and were eager to sink our teeth in. Words cannot describe how hungry we were driving from out of state, and the anticipation was growing as our mouths salivated. Once the pizza arrived...it was stone cold, as if it had been left out for 30+ minutes. They asked to send it back, and we obliged, but it didn't have the razzle dazzle a fresh cooked pizza would have had. Seeing that there were only two tables total in the entire restaurant says a lot. Unfortunately I will never be back, nor my friend. It's a shame so many Gino's locations are closing, I fear this may be the next one. (Picture shows the Luke warm pizza, no steam, no gooey cheese. What a shame) And lastly, $4.20 for onions on a pizza is ludicrous. How do you charge THAT much for one side? $2.10 for half, and $2.10 for the other half. Insane. read more

Just blah...salad...no romaine like it stated on menu...sausage no flavor, all veggies on the pizza were raw...good service

Since I was in the neighborhood and hadn't been to Gino's in years, I decided to grab a deep dish pizza and some garlic breadsticks to go. How bad could it be? Have you heard the saying "even bad pizza is good"? Well, not here. I've never been so disappointed in a pizza in my life. I got half sausage, half cheese, and the cheese side was utterly flavorless. The sausage is the only thing that saved the other half. I had to add Italian seasoning, parmesan and red pepper flakes to the pizza to make it tolerable (note: they gave us only a single red pepper flake package for an entire large pizza). Also, why do they charge full price ($4) for the sausage when it's only put on half the pizza? Should be $2 if you're not trying to gouge your customers. It doesn't end there, though. The garlic breadsticks were bland too. You're better off getting some from Olive Garden, and you'll pay less. The dipping sauces were absolutely disappointing as well. The marinara was just plain bad, the blue cheese was off, and even the ranch was terrible. How do you screw up ranch? Ask Gino's. I miss the days when they had the delicious garlic dipping sauce (or at least the location that used to exist in Oak Lawn did). To add insult to injury, the bill was $42 for the most disappointing meal I've had in a very long time. Save your money and treat your taste buds to Lou Malnati's, and never look back. Now I understand why Gino's barely has a presence in this state these days. It's sad, too, because I used to love them. They were my introduction to deep dish pizza, but it was the location in Chicago. Maybe that one is still good but this one definitely is not. In any case, I will never eat here again. Overpriced bland garbage food. And if you look at my profile, I rarely if ever give a 1 star rating but they truly deserve it. read more

OHMYGOSH!!!!!! This is really good pizza! My husband is not much of a deep dish fan but my friends and I made him try a big ol' deep dish pizza. We were starving so not only did we order a sausage deep dish. but we also ordered a spinach deep dish AND a large thin crust half cheese/half meat pizza. AND we had to have the mozzarella sticks. (Oink!) Very excited there is a Gino's East in Wheaton! It's about time. The mozzarella is perfect, not too greasy, nice and hot, stringy cheese served with tangy marinara sauce. Mmmmmm I can't have enough mozzarella. Then we all gorged ourselves on the deep dish and thin crust pizzas til we burst. It arrived piping hot, sauce was really thick and tangy, and the cornmeal crust is sooo delicious! Our server was super sweet and she joked around with us, she was on top of our orders and refilled our drinks very quickly. The outside dining area is perfect as they have the heaters and comfortable seats. The interior is very interesting decor, plus very clean. The bathrooms are also very clean and tidy. The location is also pretty good, there is plenty of free street parking in the area. read more

We dined in at Gino's on Jan. 2. The waiter was very nice, but the $128 bill (not including tip) was not worth and the deep dish pizza was not as good as usual (very dry). We also ordered a "family" Caesar salad for 4 (but it really only fed 3) that cost $38 and only had lettuce, cheese & croutons on it. We did not know we were being charged as if we ordered four separate salads, which we should have just done as we would have each gotten much more salad! And, we also ordered a gluten free pizza w/pepperoni which was listed in the menu as costing $20 plus $3 for the pepperoni, but we ended up being charged $28. This was more than the $26 large deep dish pizza that fed 5 of us! I thought we had been overcharged for the gluten pizza and salad as the menu does not show any extra cost for the gluten pizza "four cheese", which we later found out cost us an extra $8. And, a salad that barely fed 3 people with virtually no toppings was $38? Ridiculous! However, the worst part was talking to the manager. She didn't care -- never offered an apology for the menu not being clear (or even listing the cost of menu items), and definitely had a "oh well, not my problem" attitude. It doesn't take much to make me want to return -- a simple "I am sorry for any confusion" or "We can give you 5% off your next order", was all I needed. But no, there was zero concern by the manager. We will not be returning to eat at the restaurant and it's up in the air if we will order take out from them ever again...unless they get their menu updated to show accurate pricing. read more

Not at all like the old downtown branch was. Started off with a salad, nothing special just lettuce, tomato, red onion and olives. Could have added cucumbers and peppers or mushrooms. Ordered a stuffed and thin crust, very disappointed in both. The stuffed was "watery", maybe because we had spinach added or they watered down the sauce. The thin was ok, but neither one was piping hot. Overall there was nothing appealing to make me want to return. read more

Well hadn't been to Ginos in years. We decided to go back. Glad we did everyone enjoyed the pizza! Mozz sticks tasty too! Miss old style of breadsticks they were awesome! We will definately be back. Add it to our rotation. Glad all the grafiti is gone too! read more

Very frustrated on pricing. Here I Google Gino's East Wheaton while I'm trying to figure out what I can afford. I know this place is a lot more expensive than the average pizza place, but I wanted to treat my family. I see clearly marked, a Large deep dish Meaty Legend is $22.35. Great, still expensive but it's a treat, so I call to order. Then the total I hear back on the phone is nearly $10 more! WHAT?! I tell the guy on the phone the online price on Google maps (attached to the Wheaton location) and he said that it's wrong. I change my order to a medium which is still almost $10 more than the listed price. I go in to pay and the manager said those prices aren't for her location and that they wouldn't be able to stay open if they changed that little. She said the online prices for their location is what I need to look at. Well!... their website has no prices but the prices I looked at was for Wheaton! How else is anyone supposed to look ahead at pricing to place an order! I'm sure the calls they get is everyone looking at what I was looking at. (see pics) read more

My whole family has been vegan for years and we've missed deep dish pizza so much. We loved Gino's vegan deep dish!! We wished we could have put veggies on it (they told us that their spinach and broccoli contained cheese???), but it was still just as delicious as we remembered. Hopefully they will remove the dairy from their veggies so vegans/lactose intolerant people can enjoy! read more

Hahaha...just no! Not even close. This was a take out order so I'm not commenting on the service. I will say, delivery guy was friendly enough. Kept wanting to have a conversation about how good their deep dish was for some reason. Didn't come with parm, crushed peppers or even napkins. Pretty standard to see one or all of those things...or at least ask on the phone. On to the food....gross! Maybe I'm not their clientele but wow. Greasy, terrible take on this crust. Cheese was thicker than crust and was a firm block-like layer. Got two thin crust pizzas and an order of some sort of spinach motz stick's. What the heck were those things?? Inedible. Order arrived luke warm and took 1 hour to deliver to a location 1000ft away...shame on me for not picking it up. All for $70 with tip! Lol...I'm good guys. There is 2 places literally around the corner that makes oven roasted pizza Margaritas for 1/5 the price that is better than you all on their worst day. Woah. read more

We were regular Gino customers when there was a place in Rolling Meadows and the place off of Barrington Road. What we liked most about the pan pizza was the fact that it wasn't just a pan of cheese. When we found the Gino's East in Wheaton we could hardly wait to try the place. We order the pan with pepperoni, onion and green peppers. This was our special birthday dinner for my two sons and myself. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. The pizza was barely warm and 90% cheese. Nothing like it used to be. So disappointed. Will never go back. read more

It's been ages since we've been to Gino's. I'm sorry we didn't get back sooner. Gone is the graffiti of old (at least in this location). Writing on the wall always made the place feel dirty, but not anymore. Visited with my college roommate from Virginia. He ordered the Meat Lovers and I had the Spinach, both stuffed of course. What a treat! The sauce was rich and sweet (but not too sweet) and unlike some other pies - NOT TOO SALTY! The sauce was perfectly balanced. The cheese was rich, flavorful and really fresh tasting. The crust was crispy, I think it may be made with a touch of cornmeal, at least the taste and texture leads me to believe so. All in all - teeerific pizza pie. Can't wait to go back! read more
