    Meat & More Deep Dish Pizza
    Lauren N.

    Meat & More Deep Dish Pizza: I tried this one and it was delicious, loaded with meat and plenty of cheese. Super filling too; honestly, one slice was enough for me! Dense, hearty, and enjoyable, though it didn't reheat as well the next day. 8.5/10 Service: The staff was very friendly, and our order came out quickly. We did takeout this time, and everything went smoothly. 10/10

    It's my first ever visit to Chicago and when in the Windy City; it just seems appropriate to have Chicago deep dish pizza. My first deep dish pizza experience took place via a visit to Giordano's. Giordano's is actually a chain that specializes in Chicago deep dished pizza. It was founded in Chicago way back in 1974. When we got here; we we were told it would take at least 45 minutes for a deep dish pizza. They make everything fresh to order and hence the wait. Good things come to those who wait however and so we ended up getting a salad to start off along with a pizza. For our salad order; we got the Giordano's House Salad. this came with spring greens, baby tomatoes, shaved fennel and shaved asiago cheese. The dressing was lemon vinaigrette. The salad was simple and light. It was a good starter that wasn't too heavy and gave us room for the star of the night; the deep dish pizza. For the deep dish pizza; we got The Special. This pizza has sausage, mushrooms, green peppers and onions.The pizzas come in small, medium and large size. We got the medium and it was eight large slices that was perfect for three people. Wow! My first deep dish pizza experience was amazing. I absolutely loved the thick, cheesy and buterry crust. It was packed with flavor! I normally am more of a fan of the savory toppings in a pizza versus the crust but the crust here was truly the highlight. If all deep dish pizzas are like this; I'm all in. Don't get me wrong; the toppings of sausage, mushrooms, green peppers and onions were quite excellent too but it was the crust that really won me over. I ate two slices and I was so full! One would've been plenty. I was really impressed with just how good and how fulfilling the pizza was here. I'm happy I was able to try my first ever deep dish pizza and happy that was it at Giordano's. Visiting here made for a great first night in Chicago!

    We came here last night and the place was practically empty, and yet our service was terrible... first of all, she didn't let us know until after we placed our order that the pizza would take 45 minutes, and it was already 7pm. I'm sorry if this is a known thing about deep dish pizza but I've never experienced this before with other places. She also upcharged me for my dirty martini which we didn't see till the bill - she didn't ask me what liquor I wanted for it, so I assumed it would be bottom shelf, but she went ahead and chose a very high shelf one without even telling me. The pizza was honestly okay; a bit disappointing. Our server never came by to check on us. Twice we had to get up to find her to ask for napkins and to order another beer. And both times she was just sitting with coworkers gossiping. Not worth the $70 bill sadly.

    We were staying in town and were too tired to go out so we ordered pizza from here because it was close and had good reviews. What a disappointment. After we ordered, the app said our pizzas would be delivered in 30-35 minutes, 70 minutes later our food arrived cold. Thankfully we had a microwave in our room so we were able to warm it up. The Margahrita pizza had a stunning lack of cheese and an unpleasant flavor. We also had an Italian sausage and mushroom pizza that was awful, very weird flavor that had people hoping they wouldn't end up with food poisoning. The only thing that was good was the mozzarella triangle and the marina sauce it came with. Very expensive ($72) for food you couldn't eat.

    Delivery service has gotten HORRIBLE. We order every 2-3 weeks for delivery. Last month arrived cold. Couple weeks cold. Tonight cold. I saw the delivery person go to house across the street with food in hand; NOT IN THERMAL FOOD BAG. It's single digits temperatures outside and the guys walking with food not protected from elements. Needless to say the food was cold. I wouldn't have such an issue except I'm being charged for delivery fee AND driver fee. We also tip the driver. Their service is getting worse and worse. I'd rather order from a cheap chain than have cold food.

    I have been going to Giordano's for 35 years in one location or another. This was the first time in Schaumburg. Clean, fast service, great ambiance, and great food. They are keeping up the tradition of a Chicago landmark brand.

    Deep Dish Pizza
    Sabrina B.

    Visited during a work trip to Chicago. Friendly service. Ordered Deep Dish pizza and wings. The Pizza was amazing and full of toppings. The wings were small, dry and seemed overcooked. Would recommend. I took one star off due to the wings. The Pizza is too notched!

    Meat pizza and pepperoni pizza

    Delicious Pizza! Good service too! Make sure you bring your appetite! This pizza is the real deal!

    Chopped salad
    Ruth L.

    Good spot in Schaumburg location. Yummy ingredient filled deep dish, got the vegetarian tavern and deep dish style pizzas. No lack of veggies here. Nice staff and great chopped salad. Comfy booth and table seatings and full bar. They have their own spin in deep dish with a doughy cheesy texture that lays in between the layer of the deep dish.

From the moment we were seated, everything felt easy and welcoming. Our waitress came over right away, was super friendly, and got our drink and appetizer order going without any delay. We decided to share a couple of appetizers for the table, and honestly, they were a hit. The crispy fried mozzarella ($11) was hands down one of my favorites: perfectly golden on the outside with the ideal cheese pull. Nonna's meatballs ($15) were so juicy and came with the buttery garlic bread crisps! For our entrees, we all ordered something different, which made it even more fun to hear everyone's thoughts and opinions. I ordered the cavatelli trattoria ($22) and I'm not exaggerating when I say I still think about it. The sauce was flavorful and the pasta was cooked perfectly. I literally now am catching myself looking at the photo I took and craving it all over again. My husband ordered the sausage and pepperoni woodfired pizza ($18), but after trying his dad's charred pepperoni pizza ($19, he immediately had food envy. The charred pepperoni, pesto, and drizzle of hot honey just took it to another level, so he started stealing some of those pieces. We enjoyed the food so much that we came back the very next week for my husband's birthday, which alone says a lot. He didn't even hesitate and ordered the charred pepperoni pizza, and I went right back to the cavatelli because why pick something new when I already found perfection? While the rest of the family tried new dishes, we were both completely content sticking with what we already knew we loved. Overall, we will absolutely be back again, and I recommend trying it!

The goat cheese appetizer was really good. The prosciutto pizza was good. Lot of prosciutto on it. They did not skim. The Margherita pizza, I thought it was ok. It lacked flavor and not enough ingredients to appreciate the flavors of this type of pizza. There badil was cooked and only a small amount of it on the pizza. The basil lacked that flavor. Both pizza were cooked perfectly, the crust was very tasty and crisp. It was not soggy and it was a nice sized thin crust. The waiter was ok.

So, last night was that time! We walked in about 5:15 on a Sunday afternoon, and they were pretty busy! In addition, they had a guy singing acoustically with his guitar, pretty sweet! We were quickly seated, and water came instant instantaneously along with the menus. I ordered a cocktail and hubby stuck with water. He is, after all, the designated driver tonight. We decided to order Arancini and bruschetta for appetizers, while we ordered a margherita pizza for our main. Very quickly, the appetizer showed up - and the arancini's were small, but very warm to the touch and the bruschetta, while small at only four pieces, had lots of mozzarella, tomatoes, and olive oil on them just the way we like it! Needless to say, the appetizers killed it. But what about the pizza? You may ask well, it showed up and it was very hot- not only was it delicious, but it was the first pizza we've had since arriving in Chicago that had a a crust that tasted like many pizzas we ate in California - that was not a bad thing. While we sat there eating and enjoying the music, we commented on how pleasant and simple the restaurant was and more importantly, the staff was wonderful and very accommodating. Do we recommend this restaurant? Yup, and it's now on our rotation list! Try it and tell us what you think will you?
