Gino's East - South Loop

I don’t want to take anything away from Gino’s. There are just better famous chains. It’s a touristy stop and it is good. I got both a thin crust sausage (they forgot my pepperoni) and a small deep dish. The thin is just blah. Good sauce but everything else seemed under done or an afterthought. Thin is a clear 6.1. The deep is what you’re here for though. It’s a classic. It has a good amount of toppings under a savory sauce. It’s not watery, but not quite chunky. If you like lots is sauce, this is for you. The dough is a hybrid crust of a Lou’s and giordanos. It has a golden brown interior that gives it a unique flavor and airy flaky texture, that is signature to Gino’s. Overall, the deep dish is great and you can never go wrong with Gino’s; tourist or not.
