We love Chicago deep dish pizza, and have been to Chicago a couple of times and always visit Giordano's. When we found out there was one in our own backyard, we were so excited! Make sure if you go, you have time, as the deep dish takes about 45 minutes to cook. Make sure to pair it with Chicago's very own, Goose Island 312. read more

Giordano's - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

We came with a youth group of 23 people after spending the day at an amusement park. We ran late for our original reservation and lost it (completely understandable and expected), but when we called to see how long the wait would be if we showed up now, the hostess willingly put us down on the wait list so that it would be time for us to be seated. When we arrived, we were seated within 5 minutes and quickly ordered. I want to give Brenda a huge "thank you!!!!" because she was absolutely amazing. She was always coming to us with a huge smile and positive attitude. She was very willing to accept our MANY requests (remember, 23 people!). And on top of that, the restaurant closes at 11, but our food didn't come out until about 10:55 because we ordered so much (about 8-10 deep dish pies). Despite all that, she was still willing to help us and pack our food for us. She really made the experience so much better! The food was obviously amazing, but Brenda really made it a spectacular experience. read more

Giordano's - Chicken sausage, mushroom and spinach pizza - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Terrible service. Slow as can be. Place is ran down and dirty. Bathrooms are like you find at a roadside gas station.

This is a tough place to review! Server seemed overloaded, and food delivery was super slow. However, the deep dish pizza was delicious! Chicken Caprese Sandwich and Greek Salad were ok. The place was packed though. TVs inside didn't work, and not much else to offer. It also seemed to have limited inside seating which is a must. Nothing spectacular but I will certainly be back for the deep dish pizza. read more

This is the place if you like non melted cheese on cardboard. Dressing for the salad is watered down. I give it 1/2 a star.

It's worth noting I'm not a fan of deep dish and am from New York/Connecticut, so pizza up to par with what I'm used to is definitely challenging to find. If you're not picky at all about pizza, this place is decent. This pizza was comparable to what you'd find at theme park or arcade probably. The crust is the worst part about the pizza: flavorless and not fresh. I didn't try any of the other food they had besides just a cheese pie and a bite of a deep dish. I did have a take out order so I am unsure about the quality of the restaurant inside. read more

It was pretty gross. The place was dirty, the bathrooms unkept with poo in the toilet. The Italian beef tasted like cheep beef broth and the bread was split apart. read more

It was good but the pan crust was a bit different than I expected because it was too toasted. I'm not a pizza officianado but I'm working on it! lol read more

During my stay in Orlando, my friend really wanted Pizza, so we looked on Yelp for nearby places for delivery and this one popped up. Ordering was simple, since everything was online and they did deliver it to the place we were staying at. The delivery driver was very nice. He called me to let me know he was on his way and whatnot. When I greeted him at our location, he was also very kind in ensuring we got what we paid for. We ordered the Chicao Style Thin Crust Pizza. It was very delicious and hearty. The cheese layer on top held all the toppings that were below, which included the mushrooms and pepperonis. Because of how thin crust it was, you can eat it with a knife and fork or just use your hands. Regardless of how you choose to eat it, it was a delicious pie to share with my friend. Overall, it was a very good pizza. Even the next day we had leftovers, eating it cold was still satisfying. I would order from here again. read more

Underwhelming experience. I guess u gotta Goto Chicago for the real deal. Lukewarm small stuffed deep dish cheese pizza with tons of cheese and bland taste with mediocre crust spells disappointment. Original Giordano's would not be happy with this experience. (I've beenTo the Chicago store). If pizza is not smoking or hot, don't serve it. Luke warm cheese is not appetizing. It just tasted like it was not fresh, I'm hoping this was not previously frozen. Lotta food but I will throw out the leftovers. Waitress was very nice and friendly. Restaurant had no atmosphere and dead at dinner time on a Wed night. I was hoping for better, sorry. read more

If you like deep dish Chicago style pizza, give this place a go! They are in a strip plaza at the corner of Universal Blvd and Sandlake Road. The parking lot is large and it's easy enough to get in and out. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and seated quickly. They have paper menus and it's easy to navigate. We opted for a large deep dish to split between four adults (it was more than enough!) and we did a sausage, onion and mushroom. The deep dish pizzas take about 35 minutes to cook, so be sure to allow time. They so have a kid's menu and we got our little the spaghetti with meat sauce. It was out quickly and she loved it. Restaurant itself is clean and they are distancing tables. All staff was wearing masks. Overall: A A great pizza joint in the Universal / I-Drive area. If you love deep dish pizza, give this place a go! read more

The only reason I left three start and not one is that there is a hardworking owner behind this establishment. Hopefully he will read it. Very disappointing. After 45 minutes wait (as expected from a deepish pie), we got the pizza and couldn't eat it. Literally! The dough of the deepish doesn't taste anything like Chicago pizza or pizza at all. Just not a good pizza period. Appetizers were decent and prices right. read more

Horrible service, I did order a sangria and it was fermented I told the manager and he just change it to another cup! Never ever again!

The pizza was cold by the time it was delivered. I call and explain to them and it's obvious they don't care. The lady said that she can do another one but she doesn't know how long it will take. I even show the delivery man which was clueless. What a letdown! WHAT A BUST‼I DONT RECOMMEND THIS ESTABLISHMENT TO ANYONE FOR SERVICE... read more

Oh, il mio amore! I FINALLY got around to trying Giordano's on my cheat day DELISH. Honestly, who doesn't want a pizza with a deep dish crust and STUFFED with ooey gooey cheese?! I got the order delivered. I loved that the crust still was flaky and toasty upon arrival- a lot of deep dish pizzas are soggy by the time you get to eat it at home. Not this yummy pizza! I gave them 4-stars because I also ordered the calamari and wasn't that satisfied with it- it was okay and curbed my craving, but I probably wouldn't order it again. I didn't quite understand the deep-fried lemon rings that came with it, and had quite a few of them in my order. But I will most definitely be ordering pizza from Giordano's again! read more

Visited Chicago for the first time and was eager to taste the deep dish pizza. The calamari was good. They had fried lemon as part of the dish. What was most disappointing was the reception with the hosts who were wearing the red Tshirt. We went up the stairs and I tried to avoid the other patrons leaving . The staff were very rude in their interaction with me. They rudely told me to get out of the way and though I tried to explain I am avoiding contact with customers that were leaving they didn't stop their verbal assault. My partner had to intervene and told the guy not to talk to me so rudely. The waiter was kind. The pizza was good. read more

Having been to Giordano's in the Chicagoland area, I know they're a big name in the deep dish pizza game. Having had amazing experiences at locations in the past, I figure I'd give their Orlando location a fair shake to see if they could replicate the deep dish pizza magic. Sadly, much like most Florida pizza, it was a cheap imitation. The decor at this location is nice and inviting, but there is virtually no vibe or atmosphere once seated...it's almost as if you're in a cafeteria trying to bide the time while 45 pass for your deep dish pizza preparation. The cheesy garlic bread (2/5) was merely passable, with very small hints of garlic. It wasn't bad, but it just was very expensive and unmemorable for what you get (runs to over a dollar for each small rectangular wedge). We ordered a medium cheese deep dish pizza. In hindsight, I should have ordered a small since it was simply too much food. If you're on the fence about a size to order for deep dish pizza, I'd recommend sizing down. The cheese deep dish pizza (2.5/5) came out in about 40 minutes which was pretty close to the 45 minute estimate. There was cheese oozing out where the slices were cut, which had me hopeful for great deep dish. Even though loaded with massive amounts of cheese as a proper deep dish should have, the cheese was majorly underwhelming and plain tasting. The crust had virtually no flavor and even the tomato sauce on top seemed like an afterthought dried up and without much flavor. Sure, it'll fill you up, but the quality just wasn't there. I don't mind an occasional heavy meal if it's fulfilling, but this was heavy and average at best. I've had much better and more flavorful pizza when it comes to sauce, cheese, and crust at my local Pizzeria Uno's. Maybe I visited this location on an off night, but it definitely didn't live up to the quality of Giordano's locations in the Chicago area. Our waiter was friendly and happy, and was on top of his game in drink refills, so based on his service, rounding up to 3 stars despite a lackluster pizza experience. read more

Omg! Home of the deep dish pizza in Orlando! The outside was inviting and so so inside the dining area. All the staff was friendly and smiling. Which lead me to believe they love their jobs. I saw co-workers engaging in conversation and helping each other out. Mom orders for us... pizza, chicken Alfredo, mozzarella cheese sticks and salad. All of it was just so OnO! The portions were huge and we had to take it back to the hotel. But we definitely ate all of it. When I'm Orlando, a must stop! Check it out read more

Overpriced, service was fair but the pizza looked and tasted like it was made by a 12 year old kid fresh off the short bus...inedible...asked for pepperoni on whole pizza...5 pieces total on half of the pie.they said it was homage to Chicago and they were right, like Chicago, it was f@$?!$ up! ...Red Baron is a step up read more

Giordano's - Pie from hell - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Nice place. Good pizza Chicago style. Good service. Next time I am in Orlando I will go back.

I tried this chain in Chicago, which was good--poor experience at this location. The sampler was mediocre. The chicken was mostly batter, the bread was ok, and the triangles lacked flavor. The custom deep dish with BBQ chicken(made the dish) chicken sausage was very filling but just ok. Sauce lacked a savory burst. The individual tomato, basil, and Asiago cheese deep dish was filled halfway up and lacked any unique flavor. The BBQ sauce dip saved the meal. The staff was friendly and warned us about the 40-minute wait despite us being one of two guests. read more

I love pizza. New Haven has the best pizza, then Chicago, then all all other places. This place actually has both a thinner crust and the deep dish. I went with the deep dish because it's hard to find where I live. It takes a little longer so make sure you are not in a rush. The 3 of us shared a medium and we still had 2 extra slices! They had individual size pizzas too so that may be a good option if you can't all decide on the same toppings. I really enjoyed my pizza and the service was excellent. read more

I haven't had this place in a very long time and decided revisit it during our trip . We didn't really have to wait for a table when we arrived but I did have to ask for our table to be switched from the enclosed outside area to inside air circulation was bad and it was pretty hot in there. Because we ordered a deep dish it took 45 minutes or so to get our actual order. They were super busy and definitely seemed short staffed. They got busier after we got there . We finally got our food it fell a little short in the flavor department but we managed . The thin crust margarita pizza wasn't my favorite tasted to much like Parmesan. The spaghetti with Marinara was ok but that to fell short of flavor. All in all decent experience but definitely expect a wait for the food. read more

We ordered the deep dish Chicago style pizza and it was good. The service was great with a friendly staff. Pizza and apps came out faster than expected! The caesar salad and cheese bread were good. Hubby wanted the pizza to be hotter but thought it was perfect temp for eating without burning your mouth. Good food and service, we would go back! read more

The staff were absolutely terrible. I had to wait nearly THIRTY minutes to get my water refilled. I had a single refill in over an hour or being at the restaurant. The pizza was the most mediocre pizza I've ever had. My server said it was ready and then ten minutes later bright it out to me - not warm at all. It got cold by the time I ate four slices then I asked for a box from a different waiter to take it to my hotel so I can heat it up... I never even got a box. The entire pizza as well was very undercooked and the cheese was like plastic. It all stuck together like a frozen pizza. The crust was crumbly and more like a cracker than some actual good crust. This is the single worst pizza establishment I have visited East of the Mississippi. It is the worst pizza I have had in the past few years. I will never come back here. Fire your staff. read more

I am aware this is a favorite of many but my experience the ambiance was poor, bathroom resembled port-a-potty. The service was fsir bit it took 45 minutes to get our pizza. The pizza itself was bland, lacked any seasoning and appeared that toppings were simply placed on too pf crust because cheese with embedded toppings were falling off. I pray the homeless guy enjoyed it. read more

Not too many deep dish pizza joints in Central Florida but good thing there is a Giordano. We ordered the Chicago Classic and it was so cheesy and delicious. We also ordered the famous cheesy garlic bread. The one thing that was a let down is the service. Our waitress was really busy so she couldn't attend to us frequently, but there are other waiters/waitress/host that could of helped out. Unsure why they wouldn't let a hand and help each other. Overall, our waitress did her best. read more

Popped in for a quick to-go snack. Ordered a Caesar salad. Although I ordered to-go, I noticed the dining area wasn't overly crowded or loud. It was clean. The staff was attentive. None of them seemed eagar to help or take my order but they did acknowledge my presence which is more than some places. The menu was full of good options many of which I was tempted by. read more

Chicago style pizza as it should be. This location is missing a bar area, and as a business traveler, I prefer to sit at the bar and catch up on the day while waiting patiently for my perfect pie to arrive.
