The pizza was pretty good, but the service was slow. I know it takes about 45 minutes to cook a pizza but overall the service was kind of slow, but the customer service was good no doubt about it. Food: one thing that we really enjoyed were the wings. My god these are some of the best wings I've ever had. I'll be honest I think I like the wings better than the pizza. I've been to this location before or restaurant if you will, but I went to the one I think it was Las Vegas. I think the one in Las Vegas tastes a lot better. This one was good. It was just a little bit different. I'm not sure what was missing here, but it tasted little different. It has been a while since I've had this style of pizza from Las Vegas. I know it. It started in Chicago, but maybe it was just me. Don't get me wrong. The pizza was great. We enjoyed every single bite. We also had some fries with Parmesan cheese on them, which were good. But I have to go back to the wings. If I came back here I would definitely order some wings. Little things like bringing plates, refilling drinks, the service was slow, but I get it. They may have been a little bit busy, but I will definitely come back. No doubt about it I'm getting them five stars because The pizza and wings were solid.

Great chicken Parmesan and pasta!

I know everybody raves about their Chicago style pizza, but I didn't have half an hour to wait for it to cook. So I went with the tavern style. As you can see from my photo, it's cut into squares, which I love and is typical for this type of pizza. However, they put the pepperoni underneath the cheese. This is controversial. I prefer the pepperoni on top so it can crisp up and char. It also adds to the texture of the pizza. With the pizza under the cheese, it stays soft and really blends in with the cheese. It tends to subdue the taste of the pepperoni. Even with this, it had a good overall flavor, and I would order it again. Chicken Parmesan and pasta is also very good. See the photo. The facility was typical for a pizza/pasta restaurant, not too flashy but comfortable. Would come back again!

So good! We went from Illinois and we stopped for Chicago style pizza on our way through! It did not disappoint! Everything was delish! It was lunch time and it was quiet. Service was good. We would definitely return given the opportunity!

I have not had Deep Dish Chicago pizza in years. This is SO good!! This is a very nice restaurant with a great staff.

Half veggie, half pepperoni pineapple

We really wanted to try a Chicago style deep dish pizza on our cross-country move and were recommended Giordano's. We intended on getting two personal pizzas, but the owner recommended we do a small half-and-half for a true deep dish experience. We're so glad we followed his recommendation. My partner ordered a pepperoni pineapple on his side and I got the veggie without green peppers. Note that they put some of the toppings under the sauce. They even gave us some water for our dog. We both loved the pizza, but their service really pushed this to 5 stars for us.

If you want great Chicago style deep dish pizza. then Giordano's is the place for you. If you dine in and order deep dish, expect a 30 minute wait. They make everything to order, so have an appetizer or a few adult beverages to pass the time. The service was great and the pizza was delicious. I recommend it!!

Classic Chicago

I was in the area and I had to go with a deep dish pizza. Heard many things about Giordano's so I figured I had to check it out. I went in for dinner on a Monday night and it wasn't busy. I took a place at the bar and was greeted by the server. Ordered the Chicago classic deep dish pizza and was told it would take 30 minutes. Had a few drinks while I waited for my food. When the pizza came out, I was excited as it looked good. The pizza itself was actually pretty good. It comes with pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, and onions. I really enjoyed that combo! The sauce wasn't as flavorful as I'm used to but it was still good. I do wish they had a little bit of sauce in the middle of the pizza. The sauce is just on top and it was stuffed with cheese. Now I'm not complaining about the cheese since the cheese pull was great! But a little sauce mixed in there would of taken it to the next level. Regardless, it was a very enjoyable pizza. I couldn't finish my pie and left full. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and would make another visit when I'm back in the area

Came in around 1pm for a quick bite with the MIL. We both got personal 6" pizzas, one topping. She opted for the lunch special which came with a side (soup, salad, or something else which I can't recall). I just got the pizza. Silly me--she saved a dollar and got salad. I could have ordered the lunch special just to save $1 and not even have the salad. What was I thinking? Lol Clearly not about saving a dollar! Service was splendid. The pizza came out a bit slow, but worth the wait. Seriously, worth the wait. This place also has frozen pizzas to go. What?! Awesome!

Sampler appetizer platter. Fried mozzarella, buchetta, toasted baguette with fresh mozzarella, cheesy garlic bread and boneless wings.

I've never had Chicago Deep Dish pizza. I had to give it a try and this is the place to try it! The waitress helped us choose our first pie, and assisted us in choosing appetizers and even coached us on how best to eat the pizza and appetizers. The place gave a feel of an authentic pizzeria, and was super clean. I highly recommend!

I have been coming here for 40 years and it still taste as remarkable as it was when I was 5…read more Every A I got a Gulotta's pizza and he made a bunch of pizzas for me.. My analysis is 9.9.... 10 on the crust, it is made with a special recipe with sweet dough that has a solid crunch all around 10 on the sauce, the keystone of the pizza... tastes as fresh as can be, to include the fact he does not skinch on the sauce, which also has a sweet taste - 9.9 on the cheese, he makes his own blend that completely makes the pizza In the end, I have had pizza all over the world . This is my favorite pizza in the area a, from that, the county And outside the country ! I compare Every pizza to this one it would be Bert's Best pizza in all Rockford hands I would love to see @davePortnoy try this mine is a 9.9z!!

Gullotta's is a little walk in/take out pizza joint(cash only). I've driven past it a million…read moretimes. We tried it a few weeks ago for the first time and my husband and son swear that this is the best pizza in town!! We went back again last night and had the same results! First time I had the Italian beef and it was flavorful and juicy but the bread... it was crusty and flaky on the outside and fluffy yet dense on the inside. The absolute perfect bread for a juicy sandwich. We also had the lasagna(which I believe is only available on the weekends) and it was fantastic as well. His Grandma's sauce is splendid('Mamma Gulotta's' sold at Woodman's). To top it all off, Nick Gulotta; the owner, chef, order taker, carry out worker(he does it all himself!!!), is just about the nicest person I have ever met. I know some very kind/caring people, but Nick takes the cake. I just can't believe how long it's taken us to try it but am so glad we finally did! Thank you, Nick!! We will keep on coming back as long as you're willing to make us pizza!!

I'm picky when it comes to Italian restaurants; disheartened by so many that put little effort into…read moretheir sauces and use of fake cheese (fake cheese?!!). Lasagna is first on my list of things to try at a new (to me) place. This place ended my search for fantastic lasagna in Rockford~this is The One! The sauce is fantastic, tastes like several cheeses and it's baked right in the aluminum to-go container. And it's huge! Delish AND very reasonable priced! SCORE! I'm also picky about house salads. So many places don't give a crap~they tear up iceberg lettuce (ugh... Zero appeal in my book, not to mention zero nutritional-value), throw on some unripened tomatoes and carrots. But when you open the Primo's salad container, ciao bella! The colors instantly delight! Beautiful, fresh garden greens, scrumptious ripened tomatoes that taste like they were just picked, and whatever else is in there, it's going to be enjoyed, even if by itself! Next, the pizza test. This, from a male companion, who is also a self-described pizza critic, won him over and I, too, thought it was very good! Again with the sauce and cheese~Primo!! Thanks Primo's! I'm so glad I moved to your neighborhood!!

About 20 minutes later, it arrived hot and delicious right at the bar! Every slice was loaded with fresh toppings and they definitely don't skimp. I loved that they delivered it straight to us. Primos is a small, charming pizza spot and placing our order was super easy. The staff was quick and friendly, and the pizza was amazing. We will absolutely be back, and I can't wait to try the margarita next!
