    Bruschetta
    Holly S.

    Pizza is good, but just good. We had the meat Chicago style and margarita Chicago style. We ordered bruschetta and it was a little disappointing as it came out cold. It would be so much better served warm. Also ordered cocktails, tbh they sucked. The old fashioned was flat and tasted like a soda drink, the cosmo was syrupy and dull and the Moscow mule was the best one but only because it tasted like ginger beer. I really wanted to give 4 stars but everything about this visit was mid.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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!!

    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!

    Eat here on most of my visits to Rockford. Consistently good Chicago Deep Dish Pizza. Generous toppings. Well not really toppings since there on the bottom. Tons of gooey cheese and a well balanced tomato sauce. Ordered carry out and it was ready on time.

    Stopped here on a whim - and I found a new favorite in the area! This is one of those places you walk into not expecting much (if you're unfamiliar) and get blown away by great food and great service. Our server was at our table multiple times, came with water refill's without asking, and was fast too! Our sandwiches came on the softest and freshest ciabatta bread I think I've ever had at a restaurant. The chicken was flavorful, with FRESH mozzarella on top and comes with a side of marinara sauce. I got a side of soup instead of fries and was pleasantly surprised with how filling this meal was for only $13. I was beyond impressed with the flavors and freshness for what I thought would have been an average pizza place. This place is a must-stop if you are reading this. I can't wait to come back and get another one of these sandwiches. To finish this review I would like to let the audience know my plate, soup bowl, and water cup were completely empty and my stomach, extra satisfied. Do not miss out on a gem like Giordano's!!

    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!!

    The owner Nicky couldn't be nice enough. And love the heritage he carries on from his Italian…read moreparents. The pizza was really great, different than other Rockford pizzas, special in it's own way. Nicky painstakingly pays attention and takes care for every pizza he makes. And you can tell the dough takes days to make, as well as the sugo. This hole in the wall pizzeria is a find, a true find. Run, don't walk.
