Reviews for Pizzeria Uno in Chicago, IL
I came to Chicago open minded and wanting to try their famous deep dish pizza. I first tried Giordano's stuffed pizza. I was... in for a surprise. they use pie dough instead of real pizza dough. A real disappointment. I had to try another place... So Isearched for the original place, where it all started: Uno! So instead of a stuffed pizza, they serve real deep dish pizza. Better overall, better toppings, but... Still that pie dough! I will never get why Chicagoans use pie dough instead of realpizza dough. For me, it was better reheated the next day in the microwave, really weird pizza... You still have to try it,it's just not for me. Read more
This is the original home of deep dish pizza and an absolute must eat. This is by far Chicago's best deep dish pizza I have had... and I've tried all the others(no need to name them). Plus, the wings are really really good too! Dining area is small and fillsup quick, but we'll worth the wait. If in downtown Chicago, make sure to eat here; can't say that enough. I'll be back for surenext time I'm in Chicago. Read more
Of all the pizza joints in this town. We happen to end up here. Service and food selection was excellent. Our waitress was... charming and helpful with offering recommendations. The pizza was so good. Excellent place to have a couple of drinks and foodafter a day of sight seeing. Highly recommend if you are near by. If ever in town will definitely visit again. Read more
Haven’t had deep dish pizza since probably since 2003. Too enjoyable of an experience. Came here with a colleague and we both... sincerely enjoyed our pizzas. Staff was great. Pricing was good too for what you get. Part of the Chicago experience Read more
This is by far the best pizza I have had. The birthplace of deep dish pizza. The pizza was so delicious that I even enjoyed... eating the crust. This place is a must visit when you ever visit Chicago. The staff was courteous and friendly! Cozy place…great place to rendezvous with friends and family. Read more
For a Sunday evening it was quiet and it suited us. The veggie deep dish is really tasty. The crust is perfectly baked - just... enough hardness to give it a slight crunch. Florence’s soup was, a bit on the tart side. But over all nice. I removed one staronly because the place looked like a dump. They need to shine it up a bit and make it more inviting. Read more
Came in on a chilly Thursday afternoon straight from the airport. We were greeted by a very nice server and a bartender. The... restaurant wasn't busy. We ordered small pizza Uno ($21.99 as of January 2022) and an appetizer "shrimp and crab dip" ($12.99).They warn you that the pizza takes about 40 minutes to be made and they mean it. Shrimp and crab dip was amazing. Very creamyand served hot. A small pizza is divided into 4 very generous slices, and one was plenty for me. It tasted kinda homemade, whichI liked. Overall, good experience and great food! Read more
Came here because it was right around the corner from where we were staying. We were told it would be a 40 minute wait. That did... not discourage us from eating here. 10 minutes later we were seated. It was a beautiful day and thought about sitting outsidebut there were people begging for money from those sitting outside. Food wise it was good, not knock your socks off but justgood. The crust was not like regular pizza crust. It was more like a pie crust which to me kinda messed it up. They also go verylight on the sauce. Got the salad and it was a big bust. 90% of the lettuce was hard, white pieces. The best part of our mealwere the mozzarella sticks. Read more
