We had a great visit to Pizano's while stuck at O'Hare airport! We took the train into town and ate a great meal on the sidewalk and made it back with plenty of time for our 12 hour delayed flight! We got some delicious deep dish and some yummy gnocchis. The service was good and the atmosphere was great. It's an old school Italian sports bar kinda place.

I wasn't impressed. It was busy when we got there, but were seated in about 10 minutes. The waitress arrived quickly to take our order and returned within 15 minutes with our drinks and dinnerware. At this point things fell drastically. The next time we saw her was nearly an hour later. The manager (I assume since he was giving directions to everyone else) and a busser refilled our drinks a couple times. At the end of the evening I spoke to the manager about the service and I feel that to say he didn't care would be appropriate.The food was okay at best.Loud and noisy, halfway through the wife and I decided there was no way we would return during our trip.0

If I was to ever have my first ever Chicago-style deep dish pizza, what better place than to get it at the source: Chitown. I'm really not much of a deep dish kinda girl. However, as the saying goes...when in Rome. I asked a few locals and try Giordano's they said. Seeing that we were already downtown and close to Millennium Park, Pizano's was close by. We wanted to sit al fresco but rain drops started falling on our heads. Patrick quickly moved us inside to a corner table by the window. We had the small Rudy's Special deep dish of sausage, mushrooms, onions, and green peppers. It was plenty of pie for 3 people. The crust was toasted nicely at the bottom and I didn't find it soggy at all. I think there's a good ratio of mozzarella to sauce to dough. A stranger I met on the shuttle bus told me that he has tried both and that Giordano's just has too much cheese. When I heard that, I knew I would like Pizano's a lot better. We also had their summer pasta special Rigatoni Pomodoro. Perfectly al dente rigatoni, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, chicken, garlic and olive oil. It was a simple pasta dish that just completed my carb-loaded meal for the day. I wish I had room for a tiramisu but we ha d a plane to catch. Pizano's is exactly what you'd expect from an Italian pizzeria. The ambiance was unpretentious, food was satisfying, and service was excellent from Miranda.

It was good. Kelsi made the experience better. I've had better cheese curds. They were so garlic forward that I don't think I'll be bitten by any vampires any time soon. The thin crust pizza was a winner. They got the gold for having green olives on the menu. We turned down a different path and opted for the thin pizza rather than the deep dish pizza. The crust is the authentic Chicago crispy cracker crust. It was around lunchtime and they were swamped for a Thursday afternoon crowd. If you head downstairs to the bathroom, you will notice a private room that is perfect for parties.

My husband and I came in on a weekend around lunch time and were able to get a seat at the bar. Our bartender was great - friendly, provided quick service, and made some great tasting drinks. The restaurant seemed family friendly and prices were reasonable.

Been here twice and have to say that this is my favorite deep dish pizza spot in Chicago. It feels like a little hole in the wall since it's tucked away in the Loop but always seems to be busy, likely because their food is good. Their pizza never feels too greasy or heavy like other places and you'll get a nice string pull if you want fun photos! Our waiter was friendly and the food came out at a reasonable time for deep dish (maybe waited 20-30 minutes) even with a full house. My favorite is Mark's Special.

This place was super busy when we came on a Sunday night for dinner so I recommend planning to wait or seeing if you can get a reservation. Despite that, we were able to find two seats at the bar and ate there.Deep dish pizza was good and had a thick crust, which I like. Ambiance was busy and a bit chaotic/you feel crammed in the place even though they have two floors and it appears spacious. Service was friendly but the waiter did not come back really to check on us. Maybe that is because it was busy.I did try their seasonal cocktails where were fun and delicious. Out of all the pizza places I have tried in Chicago this one is ok, but not the best for flavor, value, and ambience.

Pizza is amazing, try the thin crust. Make sure you ask to be served by the Chach, he is a Chicago legend and he makes the trip worth twice the price. Loved the place and the food and loved the Chach, once in a lifetime experience make sure you go. Loved the old Chicago building.

Did not like the pizza. Very dry! Not enough sauce. Ordered 3 pizzas with our group. One deep dish two thin and all needed more sauce. Have been to the one on State street and the pizza was much better. Always enjoyed the pizza there. Maybe an off night.
