Calabrian Sweet & Spicy Chicken Sausage Pizza
Emily M.

This is a solid spot for deep dish pizza! I went for the first time last week with my brother, who was visiting from out of town. He wanted to get deep dish during his time in Chicago and had wanted to try Giordano's. We both enjoyed our meal. I was not aware of how large Giordano's menu was! The options are nice in case you aren't in the mood for deep dish - you'll definitely find something else to enjoy! We split multiple appetizers and each got our own personal deep dish. It was a delicious meal! Our server was attentive, as well. I am very happy I tried a spot that I haven't gone to before in the neighborhood.

Very disappointed in the food. Not sure why this chain is so hype up. I feel fast food pizza chain is way better. All the food were underwhelming and taste like cafeteria food. Would not recommend.

We celebrated our 30th birthday here! Taylor our server was amazing and made it a birthday to remember (a birthday card, drink and icecream). My favorite Taylor was Taylor swift but the Taylor at Giordanos on Belmont is now my favorite!!!! We LOVE Taylor at Giordanos. Thank you Taylor

Stopped in to try deep dish pizza. Told it would take 45 minutes to bake so we got the sampler appetizer. We got the Chicago classic pizza. Loved the freshness of the vegetables in it. We were able to walk in and be seated right away. Restaurant had a decent amount of seating. Our server was nice just wish she came by a little more throughout our meal to offer us refills or another drink.

We wanted a deep dish pizza. We spent the last seven years in California and I know California is not known for deep dish pizza, but Zachary's was pretty freakin' extraordinary. I am confident there are better options, but Giordano's was within walking distance from the hotel, so that's where we went. The Caesar Salad was tasty and fresh. For the pizza, we ordered a Make-Your-Own. In an attempt to recreate the pizza we love at Zachary's, we ordered a deep dish pizza with spinach and mushrooms. It looked beautiful. It tasted okay, but the overwhelming flavor was of the cheese. The pizza was very cheese heavy. You'd think a pizza with lots of cheese would be the bees knees. The problem was the chunky tomato topping, a very important part of a deep dish pizza, had very little flavor. It was disappointing. Convenient? Yes. Delicious? Not delicious enough.

Calamari and Lemon Rings

I couldn't pass up trying out a local chain with famous deep dish pizza. The deep dish was cheesy, saucy, and filling, but there was something missing as it did not stand out in its flavor. The taste reminded me more of a standard pizza from other chains, but in Chicago deep dish form. Still, it was good with plenty leftover. The fried calamari and lemon rings starter was excellent. It paired so well with the marinara sauce, it's recommended. Good service. Expect about 45 minutes for the deep dish pizza to be ready. It's better to come after major plans due to the wait. Overall, it's a fair place and worth a try if visiting.

Mmmm

I'm in town visiting an old friend . He lives right around the corner. We arrived late evening, so he got this to go and kept it warm in his oven. I'm a visitor, not a tourist. I hear they call this the tourist pizza. It was delicious and exactly as I remember it from several years ago. Best served with a friend and a cold beer!

Not bad, but doesn't stand out. Yes, I know I'm reviewing a chain - so to some extent it's not going to be anything out of this world. Giordano's gets the job done - no more, no less. It's definitely a good amount of food for your money, no one will argue that. But it doesn't leave you with that "wow" factor. It's just a deep dish pizza, with lots of sauce and cheese. With that said, I haven't tried the thin crust here and have heard that it's solid. So I'll probably return. If you need to choose a deep dish spot in Chicago and want something with some personality, hit up Lou's instead.

Dip Dish Chicago style pizza

First time visiting Chicago and its famous Dip Dish pizza. The Lakeview location is super cool, the restaurant very clean, the manager Luis super friendly, and he would come over to ask if everything was okay, including refills on our drinks.

Easily one of the biggest burgers I've had for the price, seriously, it was the size of my head. Juicy, flavorful, and totally hit the spot. The staff was super chill and friendly, which made the place even more enjoyable. Whether you're looking for a casual night out, some solid food, or a great spot to catch a game, Rocks is definitely worth coming back to. I'll be returning for sure.

The music was a bit too loud for my taste but the space is great for small groups or celebrations.

We were seated quite promptly. The patio was very pleasant. I will say, the menu was quite limited at this time. I ordered Wood's Caesar Salad; charred cauliflower, Publican Quality Bread croutons, and parmesan tossed in a lemon vinaigrette - caesar dressing. First off, the salad was very good. It is under the shared and small plates section of the menu. I think the word tiny would be more fitting. I asked my waitress if it were possible to get a protein on the side, and she only offered me bacon. I do not eat pork, so that was a bit of a bummer. I also ordered an espresso martini, which is my go to drink. Theirs was okay; it was a basic espresso martini, nothing special.

The Takis are a really nice touch and they had a really good texture as well and the chicken itself was juicy and crispy. turkey rueben -- yum. double bacon burger -- their bacon isn't very crispy & typically wouldn't like that, but it's SO GOOD!!!! it's no low-quality cisco bacon.

We made a reservation for the drag brunch as part of my friend's bachelorette weekend. When we arrived, we were seated in a side room that had no other guests. The show was clearly happening in the main room, which was busy and had a fun atmosphere. Being placed away from the event felt very misguided and significantly impacted our enjoyment. We persistently asked to be moved into the main room, and about an hour in, we finally were. From that point, our experience improved vastly. I had an espresso martini and avocado toast. The drink was excellent, but the avocado toast was a bit soggy. I'm giving three stars because I appreciate that they eventually moved us into the main room, the drag queens made a decent effort, and the drinks were good. Lark should simply be upfront and decline reservations if they don't have space in the main room.

You enter through a front room with a long bar before moving into the main dining area, which is lined with large windows. Warm wood paneling and colorful graphics give the space an inviting, energetic feel. Our server was excellent--friendly and attentive--and both the owner and a manager stopped by during the evening to check in, which was appreciated. Felix has an extensive cocktail menu, and servers were busy delivering trays of beautiful drinks throughout the night. I ordered the Windy City Sunset mocktail, while my husband chose the Smokey Old Fashioned. Both were very good. The food, however, was more of a mixed bag. We started with the meatballs for the table; unfortunately, they were overcooked and hard, and even the marinara sauce couldn't save them from being dry and unappetizing. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger, which was delicious and generously sized--easily enough for two meals. My husband ordered the chicken Parmesan with a side of pasta and found the chicken somewhat dry. Our friends ordered a pasta dish to share, though they didn't eat much of it while tending to their very well-behaved six-month-old. While the bar and dining room are attractive, the bathroom was a major disappointment--dirty and unkempt, especially considering it was early in the evening (around 6 p.m.), not late enough to excuse the condition. The owners and staff are genuinely kind, and the menu shows a lot of promise. At the moment, though, the food doesn't quite live up to what they're serving at Bites. I hope Felix can work out some of the inconsistencies and find success--it certainly has the potential. I would like to give Felix 3.5-stars, but Yelp does not accommodate this option.
