Visit Chicago: Giordano's at The Curragh Irish Pub

Many people said a must-try Chicago deep dish pizza spot is Giordano's.  So we googled one that was not too far from our hotel, and also one that was not too busy.

Turns out, the one we found was take-out only, but the adjacent restaurant, The Curragh Irish Pub, offers Giordano's pizzas on their menu (they also offer food from another adjacent restaurant - Que Onda Mexican Restaurant). and there was no wait for a table!

Since deep dish pizzas take a long time to cook, we ordered a couple of items to start: 

Cobb Salad

The Cobb Salad was pretty huge, topped with grilled chicken avocado, eggs, tomatoes, red onions, and bacon.  We all enjoyed it.

Black N Tan Onion Rings

The Guinness Beer-battered onion rings were good, but they were a bit under-seasoned.

And finally, the pizza...

Chicago Classic

The Chicago Classic was stuffed (and I mean STUFFED) with pepperoni, mushrooms, peppers, and onions.

A single deep dish slice is more than enough for a meal.  

The pizza was good, although I did think the crust was a little too thin to hold all the ingredients stuffed in the middle.

We were all happy with the pizza, and even happier we didn't need to wait for a table!
