Deep dish pizza is a must-try according to many who have visited Chicago. When I first visited…read moreChicago years ago my experience with DDP was great. It was a very filling and delicious experience. This visit to Giordano's was okay. The first thing that stands out was how poor the service was. Our server was not particularly quick, friendly, or caring. He wasn't devoid of attempting to do his job, but he wasn't good either. The ambiance is busy. Folks love pizza and this location in summer is busy. Our wait for a table for three was quoted as 20 minutes but we were seated quicker. We actually waited for our server longer than it took to get seated. The bathrooms were clean and seemed well maintained. The pizza we ordered was a deep dish pepperoni. I found our pizza good but slightly disappointing in that it came out slightly cold. The crust was great as a breadstick after eating the saucy and cheesy part. We also ordered a salad that was okay. All in all, I probably wouldn't come back considering the service and price, but I do acknowledge that deep dish pizza should be tried and Giordano's still makes a good one.

Service was fine, not super present but they did check in at the right times. The pizza is the star here. Easily one of the best crust textures I've had. Super thin, super crispy, and holds up without getting soggy. 9.7/10. The pepperoni + hot honey combo was perfect. The flavor was amazing and everything just worked together perfectly. 9.8/10. The Italian beef + giardiniera half was good too, more savory and heavier, but the meat had more of a pulled texture than actual than expected. 7.5/10. The seafood skillet didn't really land for me. It had too much wine flavor and the breadcrumbs got soggy fast. 4/10. Overall, come here for the pizza only. That's what makes this spot worth fighting for reservations.

Their buffalo wings deserve their own spotlight - huge, perfect spice, and it's making my mouth water just thinking about it! This time around we ordered the fried zucchini and while these were just as freaking good, don't let the vegetable in the name deter you away! Their classic thin crust pizza has that nice cracker crust and always leaves me wanting more.

Found my party and immediately ordered a pint of beer. We ordered some hot wings (the first ones they brought out were cold), and they were decent. We also ordered a supreme pizza, and I thought it was okay--unfortunately nothing to write home about. I found it a bit bland and just missing flavor. The onion rings, though, were absolutely fantastic. Service was top notch, and we were so well taken care of. I honestly can't imagine how they handled so many customers that night--kudos to the team. And the bathrooms were super clean, which I always appreciate. I'd definitely go back for a pint and to watch the game.

It definitely feeds at least a party of 4, but there were only two of us so we took the rest to go. It's seasoned well and had a nice, satisfying crunch in every bite. For the star of the meal we had the tavern style carbonara pizza. Absolute cinema. We added hot honey on top (though it was $3 for about a 2oz bottle) and the flavors all came together perfectly!! I didn't think we'd be finishing it but I was dead wrong. Since they are tavern cut they went down fast like chips, but needless to say I ate 3/4 of it and enjoyed every bite. Service: The host was amazing, we arrived about 15 minutes early but they were glad to seat us and we appreciated that. Ambiance: It was a little cold in there where we were sitting, so it made our food get cold a little quickly, but like I said it was still good regardless. The AC was blowing directly at our table and we got cold as well so maybe bring a jacket. Overall great restaurant, I would come back again to try the other pizzas and items!
