Chicago Disers...pizza question...

[Lars624]

Hi!!
I'll be in Chicago next weekend from 11-22 until 11-24 & we have evening plans for both Friday night & Saturday night but, I'm looking for a good place to eat lunch. I was remembering the Chicago Dis meet pics & that pizza sure looked yummy!!! Can anyone tell me where to go for good pizza?
And how about where the Disney store is??? Anyone want to meet me there?

Thanks for the link TigrLvsPooh....I'll check it out.

Dan- I'll be at the Westin right across from the Watertower.....shopping is the whole purpose of this trip

When I was there I ate at Giardano's and Gino's East...both were yummy, and boy would I love one now.

Gino's East, the first one on this link, about 5 blocks west of your hotel.

Michigan Avenue TDS is 717 N. Michigan Avenue, just south of the hotel.

I think I am the only person from Chicago that doesn't like Deep Dish Chicago style pizza. I prefer thin crust and there are quite a few places that make great thin crust pizza here too.

Gino's East is great pizza, and very convenient to where you are staying. Also Pizzeria Uno and Pizzaria Due aren't too far and they have good pizza as well.

Another good place for lunch is Portillo's!

Thanks for the help everyone!!
I wish it was a Dis meet weekend!!!!
Let me know if anyone wants to meet up for coffee.

Another vote for UNO'S here ...but it has to be at the original Uno's....not one of the "branches".
