    Classic deep dish personal size (pepperoni, onions, mushrooms, and green onions)
    Joann H.

    It was fine, service was fun and fast. The deep dish was a little overrated but as a tourist I don't regret trying it. Second time around, however, I'll try the Chicago tavern style like the locals do.

    Stars next door on a trip. Needed food and don't love Chicago style pizza, but figured should have it while in town. Lots of seating and friendly staff. Had a more meat pizza. Takes about :45 min, so it's plenty of time to watch sports on the tv. Definitely very good pizza, will be back.

    Medium stuffed crust pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms

    This time we got the pizza for carry out since we had 30 minutes to get our rental car back but 3 hours till our flight home. As always you get exactly what you are expecting. A light flaky crust. Nice chewy and slightly salty cheese with a nice pepperoni and fresh mushrooms. Add the slightly spicy and tangy tomato sauce and you get a well balanced pizza. Would I get this more than maybe once a month. No. One other thing. If you order anything smaller than a medium I think you get too much crust.

    Not a bad introduction to deep dish pizza. Expect a long wait for any pizza. We came in for lunch and despite ordering personal pizzas, the entire experience neared 2 hours. The lunch special included a salad and personal pizza, both serving sizes were big enough for 2. There were also desserts offered that weren't on the menu. *Lunch Special: the personal pizza came with four slices and we chose sausage as our topping. The tomato sauce was sweet and there was a good amount of lean sausage distributed throughout. There was a generous layer of cheese which stretched long and wide. The crust was underwhelming however. There was a decent crunch but it was overly dry with little flavor. The Caesar salad was chilled and crisp. Nothing too extraordinary about the dressing or croutons but it was well balanced. *Cannoli: huge deconstructed cannoli. The creamy filling was on the grainier side with a raw sugar aftertaste. The fried dough was stale so it took multiple attempts for me to bite through. While the size and concept were good, the execution was not tasty. Very affordable lunch specials but the flavors could have been more developed. Doughs seem to be Giordano's weak spot, which is unfortunate for a pizza chain.

    Since we were in the area, we had to try the deep dish pizza. We were thankful that we got seated right away (not like the 2 hour wait at Giordano's at Navy Pier). Our server was so friendly, helpful, and humorous. We loved him! He even knew how to take the best photos. The Caesar salad and Italian Beef Sandwich came out quickly. So good. The Chicago Classic pizza takes time to come out. (About an hour) So be prepared to wait because they make it fresh. No complaints though. There are lots of tables and a bar at this shop. Parking is okay, but people were circling during dinner time.

    Been here twice now. I had Tommy as a waiter. He's awesome. I thought i wanted an Italian beef. I ended up getting the chicken Parm instead. He was honest and knowledgeable. I really appreciate that. The food was excellent and the service was perfect. Attentive and helpful. I will be coming back, everytime I'm in town. The place is nice, roomy, and clean. I recommend.

    I was here a few weeks ago with my team for dinner. Everything was delicious! I had a few slices of the pepperoni deep dish pizza, the Margherita tavern style pizza, the veggie tavern style pizza, and some of the spaghetti in marinara sauce. The staff were very friendly and the ambiance was family style.

    If you can get this pizza loving, Jersey girl to like your pizza, you won. Another spot I was like yeah sure whatever, the pizza can't be that good. Deep dish isn't New York pizza but deep dish is definitely good. I also ordered the truffle fries. People suggested the original with cheese, well done. And I loved every bit of it. I appreciated that they had the a mini pizza for a single person like me in town for a conference. It is a big location with ample seating and a big parking lot. It is bright inside. I sat by the bar and was able to enjoy my Knicks game. The service was decent. Good. The host was kind. My server was attentive.

    Always wanted to try actual deep dish Chicago pizza in Chicago and this place came pretty highly recommended online so it was at the top of my list. It looked like any pizzeria seen in the background of a John Hughes film. We were seated rather rapidly as the waiter went through the whole spiel in a rapid fire Chicago accent. The garlic cheese sticks were really unique, I loved them but my dining companion hated them, so I guess they're kind of polarizing. But you could definitely taste all the different cheese flavors in there. My dining companion loved his lasagna, which was absolutely smothered in cheese and was a massive serving that took up the whole plate. My traditional Chicago style deep dish was pepperoni, peppers, and onions, and while it was very good and the stereotypical extra cheesy deep dish with a thick bready crust I've heard so much about (still pretty good as breakfast the next day for that matter) my only gripe was that the peppers and onions should have been par-cooked before being put under the cheese, since it kind of steamed the vegetables under the cheese and created a small puddle of water under the pizza. However, snce this is my first time eating deep dish, I'm not sure if this is just the way it's done. Overall definitely worth the trip and worth the wait.

    Here's my verdict on Giordano's. Good not great. Pizza was good but watery and bottom crust was soggy. Next time, sausage and mushrooms, no onions. Italian beef. Good, not amazing. Very flavorful and the gardiniere was interesting as it only added heat. Would I go again? YES. Would I recommend that someone has to have it? NO. Drawback. Don't come if you're in a rush. Even the 6" deep dish pizza took 30 minutes and the service was OK.

    I'm really loyal to the Morton Grove location, right on Dempster, but this is a very nice location too. Having lived and worked in Rosemont, I do like this area for eating and shopping. As for Giordano's, it is definitely in the top 3, depending on your mood. The deep dish pizza cheese pulls are unmatched!! Check out my video. And I also love their thin crust pizzas (non- tavern style), not as crisp and has plenty of ingredients and cheese. Perfect for the next day, BTW. The tiramisu was very good as well, satisfying and those lady fingers were very well soaked. If you're flying out of Ohare - stop here before flying out. If you're driving through on I-294, stop here for a break from the long drive and taste a bit of Chicago. Come here before or after shopping at Rosemont Outlet Mall, you won't be disappointed.

    Personal Individual 6" Sausage Deep Dish Pizza
    Bob D.

    I was craving pizza and walked here from my hotel. Easy walk from many of the O'Hare airport hotels. I sat in the bar and enjoyed a local IPA with my pizza. Service was great--attentive but not intrusive. Bar area was nice with music as well as multiple games on the bar TVs. Pizza and beer definitely hit the spot.

    When in Chicago, you gotta get some Giordano's. It was also 3/14 so PIE Day. We made reservations for 10 people at 715. We are on a work trip so our party ended up being 16 not 10. We get to the restaurant and they can seat the original party of 10, but say that the other 6 will have to wait. After speaking to Jean the manager, she offered us the outside patio. I know what your thinking outside patio in March. It was really warm and they have the fireplace outside. It was absolutely perfect! The inside restaurant was crazy busy as you can imagine as it's a Friday night & Pie Day. We were the only party outside. Our service was great, food amazing! Thank you!

I ordered delivery to my room with a friend who lives here came to visit. And I had put for the food to be brought up to my room. The driver did not knock, and if it wasn't for the hotel front desk staff, I would have not known about our dinner. When we open our order, my friend's baked cavatelli looked delicious. There may have been a misunderstanding because we were pretty certain we ordered sausage and they put meatballs instead. No matter her dish was still tasty (I sampled it) plus it was a generous portion. For myself, I ordered the penne arrabiatta with added chicken. When I opened the bag, I thought that they had forgotten the chicken because it was just pasta. Looking in the separate bag, I found plain grilled chicken with no seasoning in a separate tray. I would've expected the chicken to be mixed in or at the very least had some seasoning on its own and not just relying on the sauce from the pasta. This was the disappointing part and why I can only give Carmine's three stars.

We were a little surprised when nothing was done for it, which isn't a big deal, but I'll be honest it was disappointing since we did come specifically to celebrate and had talked about it w our server. 3/5 Arancini - Very salty. None of us really enjoyed them because of that. They also came out lukewarm instead of hot. Would have been excellent if it was less salty and came out hot and crispy. 5/5 Fig & Mushroom (subbed for prosciutto) - The menu doesn't specify how the fig is served. Turned out to be fig jam rather than fresh fig, which wasn't what we expected. A little too sweet for me but overall still very much enjoyed it. Their pizza was cooked perfectly with enough toppings and cheese. Very good pizza! 5/5 Braised Short Rib + Polenta - so good! The short rib was excellent, just slightly salty. The polenta was perfect, and it came with a generous portion of wild mushrooms. 2/5 White Wine Cake (recommended as "unique") by our server - This was the most disappointing meal item. Our waitress told us it was special, but it was very bland and didn't match the description or image on their website. Their website showed a cake with a large scoop of ice cream on top, fair amount of whipped cream and raspberry sauce. Ours came with maybe a quarter of the size of that ice cream scoop, a little teaspoon dollop of whipped cream that you eat in one bite and the raspberry sauce was a tiny smear on bottom for decor but there wasn't enough to actually eat it. The cake itself was moist but lacked flavor. It took a really long time to come out, we thought perhaps they forgot, then forgetting we were celebrating a birthday on top of that was disappointing. Atmosphere - Beautiful space, very well done. The only issue is how close the tables are, you can't pull your chair back without hitting someone, and getting to the bathroom requires asking others to move because of how tight the layout is. Overall, we really enjoyed it and would return. While there were a few dishes we wouldn't order again, and others we would. Would love to try the wild mushroom pizza next time! The only thing was that since we had come to celebrate a birthday and didn't end up doing that, the night felt a little less special than we had expected--but still a nice experience overall.

To put things into perspective, the restaurant only had about six tables occupied, so it wasn't busy at all. Despite that, it took 30 minutes just to place drink orders. After that, our server disappeared and never returned to take our appetizer or entrée order. We spent another 45 minutes trying to get her attention, at times clearly waving in her direction and even feeling like she was looking right at us, but she still didn't come over. She only came back after a long wait, and not because she was checking on us. When the food eventually arrived, it was underwhelming at best. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, which was bland and came with only a few small shreds of chicken mixed in, definitely not what you would expect from a nicer Italian restaurant. We also did not receive bread until we specifically asked, drinks were never refilled, and our server never once checked on us. After finishing our meals, we sat with empty plates and glasses for about 30 minutes before a busser, not our server, finally cleared the table. We then waited another 15 to 20 minutes before flagging down someone else to order dessert. That person only took one order and walked away without addressing the rest of the table. Eventually, flagged down another staff member who took our full dessert order, but after waiting another 30 minutes with nothing arriving, we decided to leave. The overall attitude from the staff was indifferent at best, and it genuinely felt like no one cared about the customer experience. Even when we spoke to the manager, there was little sense of concern or urgency. It was a very strange interaction. The only redeeming part of the evening was that, after significant pushback, a portion of our bill was discounted. Still, the entire experience lasting nearly three hours was incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I would not return or recommend this place.
