Giordano's

My sister and I shared a Chicago Classic. Yum!
The recipe for Giordano’s now-famous stuffed pizza is one that has evolved over 200 years.
Its creation began in a small northern Italian town near Torino.
Mama Giordano was famous around town for her exquisite cooking. Of all
her renowned dishes, her most beloved meal was her “Italian Easter Pie”.
Mama Giordano would serve this double- crusted, cheese stuffed
masterpiece every year for Easter. This pizza pie became a sacred
tradition in the Giordano family and a legend in the town of Torino.
Years later, original owners and Italian immigrants Efren and Joseph
Boglio moved to Chicago to start their own pizza business. The brothers
introduced their Mama’s recipe for stuffed pizza. In 1974, on Chicago’s
historic south side, Efren and Joseph opened the first Giordano’s. Over
the next 40 years, hundreds of critics announced Giordano’s as the
city’s “best” stuffed pizza! The rest is history you can still taste
today, along with our other great starters, fresh salads, outstanding
pastas and unique sandwiches. We continue evolving to bring you a taste
of real, fresh Italian!
Giordano’s has been acclaimed “Chicago’s Best Pizza” by
NBC, CBS Chicago, New York Times, Chicago Magazine, Chicago Tribune,
Chicago Eater, Home & Garden Magazine, Concierge Preferred and more!

Now that deep pan Chicago pizza is making me hungry!!! I may need to get my husband to cook tonight!!! He's the best pizza maker!!
ReplyDeleteWe love Giordano's. When we lived in the city, there was a Giordano's quite near our apartment. The staff was always a little surly (not in a tourist area), but the pizza was superb! There's now even a Giordano's in our far west Chicagoland community. Always a treat.
ReplyDeleteI love Chicago style pizz..yummy. Ed DeBevics is worth a trip if you have never been...Go at least once...don't want to spoil the surprise if you ever go. Janice
ReplyDeleteYummy! This looks amazing and that bruchetta? Yes please! This is a really cool post. I've never been to Chicago cut would love to check it out! This pizza place would be one of my first stops :)
ReplyDeleteI've had some pretty good pizza in my day. Chicago style is one of them. Looks good.
ReplyDeleteI love pizza and one of them is Chicago style pizza. This sounds like a wonderful place to have pizza!
ReplyDeletePizza!! It's one of the things I miss most about Chicago. Growing up there I took for granted how there are so many good types of pizzas so close to where I lived. In Cleveland we had trouble finding good pizza but finally settled on a place in Little Italy that became our favorite. Here? We make our own. Thanks for making my mouth water!
