The
Gino's East story began in 1966 when two taxi drivers
and a friend, frustrated with rush hour traffic, decided to open a
pizzeria just off Michigan Ave. and Superior St. in Chicago. The
Original Gino's East became an instant legend with local Chicagoans,
national celebrities and visitors from around the world.
Gino's famous deep-dish pizza tastes the same as it did back then. Each
pizza is made by hand and features its own unique look. Each legendary
pizza is created with a secret, golden crust, fresh vine-ripened
tomatoes, and loaded with your choice of fresh ingredients. Once baked
to perfection these enormous pies are brought to your table in Gino's
well-seasoned pans.
If your tastebuds aren't craving their famous deep dish or thin crust
pizzas, Gino's East offers a delicious alternative. A full menu
featuring their homemade appetizers, pastas made with a rich and tasty
marinara sauce, Salads filled with an abundance of fresh vegetables and
sandwiches to fill any sized appetite.
In a city known as the "Pizza Capital of the World", The Original Gino's
East is still the number one pizza restaurant where customers from near
and far return year after year to scribble their names into the wood and
stucco walls of our flagship restaurant in downtown Chicago.
The Original Gino's East is available for dine-in, carryout and
delivery.
