I haven't been a fan of Riccobene's in Chicago for quite some years because, in my opinion, their…read moresteak quality has been very much lacking. I was pleasantly surprised by Carson's food. The steak sandwich with cheese and sweet peppers was delicious, much better quality than what I've had at Riccobene's, and you get a lot more for your money. Another member of my family had the chicken parm sandwich and said it was comparable to Riccobene's, which is a pretty good compliment coming from her! The pizza was delicious too. I can't say I thought it was better than Beggars, but I definitely enjoyed it and would order it again. Overall, we were very happy with Carson's and will definitely be going back.

Not being from Chicago we were traveling and gave this a shot. It's amazing and honestly cannot be compared to NY pizza. They are just completely different styles of pizza you cannot really put them in the same category. Apples and oranges. The deep dish crust is what makes this stellar. Crispy and decadent. It's pleasurable cutting the pizza and the cheese so thick and how it melts, almost like cutting the yolk of an over easy egg. The sauce in the pie was so fresh I could have just ate a Pint of it like soup. It was fresh, herby, and simple. Absolutely wonderful!

Bad things - he just got here so he's trying to get his bearings. He's got a lot of young guys working for him, and you know how young people are today, lots of them are not very dependable and hanging out on their phones too much instead of paying attention to what really matters in life like your job. Having problems with the delivery guys, but I think this is all temporary and will sort itself out soon. This place is in business and is definitely worth stopping at. This is an updated review December 2023. Definitely patronize this new owner as he bothered to open them up again and they're a nice chain out here in the southwest burbs and Rural suburbs south of I 80.

We have been on the Route 66 100th Anniversary Road Trip from California. Couldn't wait to try a…read moretrue deep-dish pizza and all fingers pointed to Lou Malnati's. Got the large Deep Dish Chicago Classic and unfortunately, it was a bit of a letdown. I left a review stating our disappointment. Within a day, I heard from a representative from Malnati's who apologized for not meeting our expectation's, thanked me for my honesty (which I truly appreciated) and wanted to make sure that before we left the area, wanted us to have a better experience with their food. In my first review, I had not mentioned that we had also gotten their Malnati's Salad which we really enjoyed. We got the family-sized salad and it was huge. Romaine lettuce, fresh tomatoes, black olives, tons of mushrooms and salami bits with gorgonzola cheese tossed with their Sweet Vinaigrette and Romano cheese. So good! So tonight, we had our second meal from Malnati's. We once again got that yummy salad we liked so much. We also decided to try their Bruschetta and their Three-Cheese Bread to go with our salad. They were both great. The Three-Cheese Bread was nicely cover with the cheeses and came with a red dipping sauce and was an ample portion. The Bruschetta had the toasted garlic rounds and the topping was in a separate bowl so we could make our own pieces fresh so they wouldn't get soggy. So I'm happy to change my review and say that we really enjoyed our dining experience with Malnati's. We also appreciate the effort and care that went into making sure we had a positive experience. Their staff couldn't have been more helpful with their service, all the food was tasty and fresh and it was so nice to have such great customer service, which could be called, "concern for customers". Thank you Malnati's, we'll get another pizza next time.
