Best deep dish style pizza joint. When I get pizza, I like a traditional thin crust, pepperoni pizza but whenever I get the chance to have some Giordano's... Sausage deep dish is the only answer. read more

I love Giordanos! Went to school in Chicago and had them all, Giordanos is THE best! They make the best deep dish in the country! My favorite part are the leftovers. Not many pizzas reheat quite like theirs! Also, COVID-19 side note, they've done a great job making curbside seamless! I ordered online, pulled up through their corrals and they brought it out! Make sure you put your make and model as an add on item and it's easy as pizza pie! Also glad to see their wearing gloves and taking proper precautions. Thanks guys for keeping life as normal as possible in these crazy times! read more

Chicago style pizza very little flavor sauce was bland. thin crust pizza was just mediocre

Was out of town and landed in the "burbs" as the locals say. Good Chicago style deep dish pizza Cheesey The small pan pizza does take time, 25-35 minutes. Enough to feed a party of 4-5 people. I've had from other the chains and it's pretty consistent. I'm from the east coast and am a NY style guy. read more

This locations is family-friendly! Order the Chicago special deep dish- if you are eating for two- I'd recommend ordering a small pie. The servings are generous! read more

Love the food obviously...anyone who doesnt is crazy. The waitress was rude as he** soon as we walked in she gave us attitude and threw the menu on the table. Turned around walked away without saying a word. Comes back 15 minutes later... THEN asked us what we would like to drink. My husband got really upset for us being treated like this..he set a dollar bill on the table and told the waitress kindly if she was so miserable with her life/job WHY WORK IN A CUSTOMER SERVICE TYPE OF JOB?!?! Walked out never will go back the Rockford location again! Never been treated like that before... Very very rude girl. Ps love the food tho!!!!!! read more

It was the best deep dish pizza I've ever had. The staff is unbelievable every time your drink is half-full they come around and give you a new drink they were the best best. If deep dish is not your thing they also have thin crust pizza as well. read more

Been to this Giordano's location several times and have never had an issue. Recently came here for Mother's Day (when mama has a craving, you go for it) and had a great experience. Our waitress, Gaby, was attentive and efficient. I ordered a "small" chopped salad and it could've easily been a meal in itself. I split it with my dad so I could partake in the main feature. At times, Giordano's deep dish has come out soggy. Not today! The pizza was delicious this time around. The wait time is about 45 minutes for deep dish, but that's expected. Great pizza and atmosphere, and you can find coupons in the local paper! read more

I go here alot and the food is wonderful. The staff and service are very nice and we had my son with one day and they gave him some dough to play with which he loved read more

I'm a Chicago-raised guy. My second time at a Giordano's. Once at the downtown Chicago place and this time in Rockford. Both were identical. Deep dish pizza was good, not great. For deep dish Chicago-style, crust is the key. Giordano's ingredients were plentiful but average, and the critical part, the crust was just meh. Nothing like the crunch and flavor of Gino's East or Due's downtown. I won't be back. read more

Last year I inadvertently pitted the San Francisco Bay Area's premier Chicago-style pizza parlor, Zachary's Pizza in Oakland, against this Giordano's franchise in Rockford, 90 miles from Chicago. The night before a trip to Madison for a conference, I met a friend for dinner in the East Bay and yielded to his push for Zachary's. As always, the restaurant satisfied -- warm atmosphere, hot, good food. I ate my fill, left happy, and let my friend take the inevitable leftovers. The next day in Illinois, my boss and I rented a car at O'Hare and headed for our planned stop in Rockford to pick up a pie. After a few wrong turns, aided by the help of the friendly restaurant staff, we got our food and were quickly back on the wide Illinois highways, eating pizza to the music of Led Zeppelin. It may sound cheesy, but it was great -- and with that much deep dish, it _was_ cheesy. (Groan.) The Giordano's pizza was delicious, the crust, cheese, and tomato sauce baked together to the right firmness and served at the right temperature. We ate slice after slice after slice, and when I felt I was full, I didn't want to stop. That's what I remember; that's the impression that has remained clear even as the specific details of the two pizzas have faded over the last six months. Zachary's is good, but Giordano's was the clear winner in this accidental contest. This wasn't an isolated outcome, either. Every Giordano's I've been to -- at home in Naperville, at school in Hyde Park, out on the North Side, passing through Rockford -- has served consistently great pizza (unlike, say, Gino's East). Chicago has an amazing selection of pizza, and I've been gone too long to declare Giordano's the best pizza to have ever passed my lips. I will, though, gladly call it my favorite place to get deep dish pizza, a place (a chain) I know I can go back to, and I would tell anyone looking for good deep dish pizza in the Chicago area that they won't go wrong here. read more

Best Chicago deep dish pizza around. I would highly recommend this place. Service is good, lots of TVs and decent selection of beer. I haven't had deep dish pizza around in the area as good as theirs before. If you are in Rockford and want some good pizza, do not pass this place up! read more

Overall, I don't think Giordano's lives up to the hype. The pizza's just ok - nothing special. There are other pizzerias in the Rockford area I'd much rather go to. Really bad service while we were there. It took us forever to get our drinks and our pizza - although we didn't get charged for our drinks which I think was just a mistake. read more

Came here with my boyfriend and his parents in a Thu evening. The restaurant was clean, inviting, with red and white table cloth like many Italian restaurants in town. We ordered the house salad, the small deep dish pizza (with Italian beef, mushrooms, and sausage), and the small Chicago style thin crust pizza. Everything was delicious. The salad had a light lemon zest dressing with fresh greens. The pizzas were great and very filling. The 4 o us combined only managed to eat half of both pizzas. Overall service was good. Our waitress was not very bright but she was courteous. We will be back. read more

We had excellent service but after we ate our pizza and got home 3 of us got sick. My girlfriend had severe stomach issues and her son threw up in the night 4 times all pizza!! I was left with bad heartburn. Don't think we'll be back. read more

This pizza is so good I can't tell the difference from Gino's in Chicago IL. If you want Chicago style deep dish pizza you can't go wrong with Giordano's. I recommend the classic. read more

Best deep dish pizza around - I've been loving this pizza for over 16 years, but it has been more difficult since relocating to Colorado, and I was only able to enjoy the pizza when I came back for family visits. ...until they started shipping pizzas to the lower 48! Now I can enjoy the pizzas anytime!! Now I know I've just been praising the franchise, but let's talk about the Rockford location. Big, open and airy, the dining room is very comfortable. The service is always top notch, even once it gets crowded. I feel that the space allows your party to relaxed and comfortable. And if you aren't in the mood for pizza, their Italian Beef sandwich is absolutely second to none. Mouth watering. Spicy. Mmmmmm I just got so hungry thinking about it.... I'm about to place an order for some more!! read more

Beautiful restaurant - really nice decor and ambience, like an upscale pizzeria vibe. Very friendly service and excellent food - the Italian beef sandwich is one of the best I've ever had. Will definitely be back. read more

I love Giordano's, but I must say, this was just a tiny bit of a let-down. My chopped salad was very good. The lettuce was fresh, and the mix of veggies and dressing was just right. Thoroughly enjoyed it. But on to the main course... The pizza looked right, but just had a little something missing. The crust was right, as was the cheese. In my opinion, Giordano's always skimps on toppings, but they do that in downtown Chicago, too. But the sauce must have been missing some garlic or something. It was just slightly bland. Wish I could articulate better, but I cannot. I'd rate it 80% as good as their Chicago locations. Our server was great - very warm and friendly and helpful. MY ADVICE: If you've never tried REAL Chicago deep-dish, go here and you'll love it. If you are a real deep-dish veteran, you might be a touch disappointed. read more

From out of town so I don't know what real Chicago pizza is supposed to taste like, but this was fantastic. Best tomato sauce I've had at a pizza place. read more

Delicious eggplant parm. I'll be back next time I"m in town. The deep dish looked great.

Go to pizza place for deep dish in Rockford. Since we only get that once in a blue moon, it is also my favorite for this crust pizza. They have a ton of cheese, which is my favorite but you can also order a light version. They are pretty expensive so we don't order often. read more

O-M-G! I love me some deep dish Chicago style pizza and this delivers. We started off with an appetizer basket and everything was amazing. Great fried cheese! But the start of the show was the Mack Daddy of a Pizza. I think it weighed like 20 pounds (It was just the medium!) Me, my husband and my Mother in law could only finish half of this sucker. It was the perfect temp (you know, some of these pizzas are like flamming hot) and perfectly cooked. If I had one complaint, it was a tad hot in the restaraunt, but other then that perfection. We will come back the next time we are in town read more

Chicago-style pizza, deep dish pizza. Compared with New York pizza, California pizza, the pizza has nothing except cheeses,. If you see a cheese lover, you may want to take a try. Service is not bad, but we waited soooo long time. read more

Was here for a birthday and had the absolute best pizza that I have ever had. True "Chicago style". Even being in a large group of 11 the server was super attentive and even when she mixed up ingredients on 2 of the pizzas ordered. Instead of my friend getting ham and Canadian bacon they just had ham and I had the bacon on mine she had it fixed promptly and there was not a long wait for the second pizza and did not charge me extra for the accidental extra topping. Overall good experience for a large group. Would love to try it with less people at some point Have been back since with a smaller party and they still exceeded my expectations. No matter the party size you are in for a treat with excellent service and suburb food read more

Love this place. Great deep dish pizza. Staff are always very friendly. Son really liked the mozzarella and marinara sauce.

Always delicious! Never disappoints!!! A little pricey for stuffed pizza but worth every penny! I think it tastes even better the next day!

We went to dinner here on Saturday. The roof was leaking in the area we were seated, which was allowed to drip on the floor rather than placing a bucket under it. The wifi they boasted about, ended up having a charge to use it. When reviewing the menu with the server we discovered several items on the menu weren't offered at this location. In addition, several items were offered which weren't on the menu. They have a standard menu from the Chicago location. We placed our order of a stuffed pizza, knowing it would take a while to cook. We then continued to look at the menu to decide on an appetizer while we were waiting. The server didn't return to see if we were ready for at least 10 minutes. Once we ordered our salads it took another 10 minutes to receive them. The pizza we ordered which we anticipated as a wait of approximately 35 minutes actually took over an hour to receive. Once we got it, it really wasn't that great. We have another restaurant we've found which has much better service, atmosphere and food on general we will return to next time we want a stuffed pizza. read more

Perfect stuffed pizza every time. Go every time we come to town. Highly recommended. Wonderful wait staff and super consistent kitchen!!!!!!! read more

horrible worst service ever. If you want to sit around and not be waited on or given an explanation as to why you are waiting an hour for a small pizza -- then it's the place to go. Won't be back, horrible manager and lazy waitresses. read more
