    Soup of the Day
    Catherine Y.

    We have been to this Giordano's (I think it's the only location in Minnesota) several times. The latest visit was for dinner earlier tonight because our younger son requested that we go for dinner. Both of our boys LOVE the spaghetti and rigatoni pasta dishes. My husband and I have ordered the deep dish pizzas several times in the past. The restaurant was pretty busy since it was dinner time on a Friday night. Our sever was friendly, attentive and fairly busy since she had several tables she was taking care of. The restaurant is pretty spacious and have different options for seating - conducive for small and large group gatherings.

    Great atmosphere and awesome pizza! Thank you to our fantastic server, Shannon Love having the best Chicago deep dish here in Minneapolis

    Fried calamari

    Went here to get the hubby's deep dish craving satisfied. There was no wait but you can make a reservation online. First, if you plan on getting a deep dish, it is typically at least 45 mins to get it going. So don't come expecting to get it within 15 minutes. Of course you can order appetizers and other stuff on the side. It was decently busy and not enough server. We got seated but took about another 5 minutes before our server could come to our table. We knew the deep dish would take a long time so we wanted to order that right away before looking at other items. Calamari - it was not crispy so a little disappointed. Came with the typical marinara sauce. 3/5 Salad- normal type of salad. Nothing special but is a good side for a pizza. Parmesan fries- crispy, hot and yummy. Recommend especially if you have kids with. Margherita- well cooked and good. It balanced our meat and more meat deep dish. Not over cooked Meat&more meat- with a meat lover hubby, of course ww have to order a meaty pizza. We got the 14" to share for 4 people amongst other food. After 1 piece I was deep dished out. I'm not a big fan of deep dish but hubby loved it. Overall, except the first 5 mins, our server was awesome. Checked in on us often after. Food overall was good minus the calamari. Could be crispier?

    Very nice small Greek salad

    I stopped in for lunch and ordered a side salad and personal Deep Dish pizza. The salad was to tide me over for the time it takes the deep dish to bake. The Greek salad was excellent. Great dressing too. I really like their deep dish. Always order garlic on your pizza as it really makes it special. Service was friendly and efficient.

    Appetizer combo
    Alyana S.

    When it comes to deep dish pizza I always think of Giordanos! I love their deep dish even though it takes 30-40 minutes to make. We decided to get the appetizer combo and the triangle deep fried mozzarella was amazing with the sauce! Plus those chicken nuggets was delicious too with the ranch! We got the Chicago Classic with mushroom, green peppers, and marinara sauce! It was very cheesy and the crust was one I'll definitely eat. Our server was quick and prompt! It was quiet for a Monday but it's a wonderful place for big groups! There's plenty of light inside and lots of seating area!

    Yum!!! Thick Crispy flaky crust, awesome cheese pulls, flavorful sauce covering the top with pepperoni and crunchy green peppers!! Great dinner spot! Our server was so friendly and personable and it was a nice quiet Monday evening dinner. Thanks for a great meal!! I love seeing the pizza on the raised pizza stand!!

    I love this pizza place. It's open, there's always a place to sit, they have a small outdoor patio and the service has always been good. A true Chicago pizza place is about the crust and this crust is good. Order their deep dish right away as it will take 40 or so minutes to cook if your in a hurry. I order their cheese bread which is good but they tend to overcook it a little so ask for it not to bo overcooked. Their salads are good and hearty. So get one while your pizza cooks. Once your pizza arrives, you are transported to Chicago as they put that first slice in your plate with the cheese dripping off the pie giving you a true deep dish! Side note: I grade my bathrooms as a 5 Star Bougie (clean, pleasant, smells great, picked up, in order), 3 Star Basic (like home with the basics and equally as clean) or 1 star Bad (filthy, paper towels on the floor, sink is disgusting, smells like a toilet, etc) ... this gets a 1 star Bad! I will be back but they have a few things to work on!

    Spaghetti with House-Made Meat Sauce, Bolognese  - Family Platter (Serves 2 or More) and B.Y.O. Deep Dish Cheese (6" Personal)

    We went to eat here on Mother's Day. My wife absolutely loves the deep dish pizza. I had the spaghetti with meat sauce and it too was incredible. Our server took care of us very well and we were very satisfied.

    Needed a quick dinner in the area and felt like something cool and fresh - C&G it is! I had tried…read moreC&G once before so it wasn't completely new. This location is nice inside: tonssss of seating, and I recommend sitting in back for calmer vibes without the hustle of the ordering line! The bench cushion fabric was very dirty and worn on all the seating - definitely didn't match the rest of the space. Parking is a little tricky around here - I recommend one of the free parking ramps. Their menu is pretty simple with a handful of salad and bowl options. I like that! Not too overwhelming. My brother and I both got the chicken bacon ranch salad. You can do substitutions but we stuck with everything. Service was quick and friendly! ~$30 for two salads and two drinks. And the drinks were delish! They had a handful of fresh made teas and lemon waters and we loved them. Salads were delicious; well dressed, and the right portion so you don't have extra leftover. I could use more protein/meat in it. Thanks for a quick and healthy meal!

As I was getting ready to check out I noticed they had Kombucha on tap!! Yes. On. Tap. I totally got the Hibiscus Berry Kombucha and it was so good. I ate every bit of my grain bowl and it kept me full all day.

One standout for me was the chicken wild rice soup, which was rich, comforting, and surprisingly enjoyable even with mushrooms mixed in -- the flavors were well balanced and hearty without being overpowering. The salad bar was another strong point, with a good range of fresh ingredients and prepared salads that felt thoughtfully stocked rather than repetitive. The pizza was decent -- not the highlight of the meal, but serviceable and satisfying as part of the larger selection. To finish, the ice cream was excellent and easily one of the most enjoyable parts of the experience, offering a classic, nostalgic end to the meal.

On awkward waiting wondering if this is one of those places where you can just seat yourself. The place is clean and the ambiance has some very nice touches to bring intrigue. The subtle candle-like light fixture was corky and added to the charm. Prices are very reasonable! I had a good idea what I wanted prior to stopping in. Food came out quickly. Less than 10 mins. Lupia was hot and delicious. My first time having one so wilk not compare it to an egg roll. The braised beef rib was tender and juicy. I pulled out the knife but only a fork is necessary. I do wish the meat was a tad saltier but just a personal preference there. Service was pleasant, attentive, and quick. The gentleman who greeted me also thanked me on my way out. It was rather pleasant experience overall and am planning on coming back to try more of the menu!

It's a restaurant, perhaps reflecting its neighborhood, where people have an occasional beer, but George and the Dragon isn't a drinking hole. That changes the ambiance. The patrons looked well-off, but in that way in which they try hard not to look like they have money. Most of them wore clothes that made them look as if they had just come off the tennis court, or their bike, or after running a five-mile for a great cause. My wife and I still try to look nice when we go out. We don't dress down. Most of the people at George & the Dragon were in their fifties or sixties, including the servers, who were very earnest, if you know what I mean. I'm in my seventies, grew up in NYC, and still try to look hip, and I drink vodka quite often. Maybe that's why I felt uncomfortable. That decade and a half makes a huge difference in how we grew up, and what I experienced in the sixties and seventies. The food was okay, not great. The burger and chicken schnitzel tasted fair to middling. The room was also very loud, filled with exclamations from the tables of "women who lunch," feeling more comfortable with no men at their tables. That's also a demographic and Minneapolis thing. I doubt I'll return to George and The Dragon. I like bars.

When I got to my destination (a few doors down) to sit down and eat I was a bit disappointed in the lack of flavor overall. Also charging .65 cents for additional toppings seems aggressive for how little they give you. My bowl was 85% rice... I also ordered chips because they are posted as seasoned in house but they were just salty. I was talking to someone about my experience and they mentioned a having similar experience & about the cauliflower option also lacking flavor.
