In 1943, on the corner of Ohio and Wabash in downtown Chicago, Uno Founders, Ike Sewell and Ric Riccardo, created the original and legendary Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza. They combined authentic Italian recipes with the finest meats, spices, vegetables and cheeses and baked them in a unique and delicious deep dish crust, creating a hearty pizza like no other. Today, Uno’s Deep Dish Pizza is still made as it was then, with dough made fresh daily, hand stretched and covered with meats, hand-cut vegetables and freshly shredded mozzarella cheese. We put that same attention to detail in all our menu items, including pasta, salads, burgers, steaks and seafood and our new Love All, Feed All™ menu – which includes our 600-calorie-or-less Uno De-Lites, as well as our Gluten-Sensitive, Carb-Conscious, Vegetarian and Vegan offerings.

    We got sent very quickly, even though it was busy, which was amazing seeing as Gus and sip had a 45 minute wait which turned into them never texting us. So I’m even more glad that my husband and I decided to have dinner and were blown away.. the spicy scampi pasta is absolutely delicious. My husband got the chicken Parmesan and it was incredible. Our server was attentive and very pleasant. The only issue I have is it’s pretty cramped but outside of that Highly recommend.

    From the moment we walked in the door, until the moment we left, everything exceeded our expectations!! We were sat at our table and within 1 minute, our waitress appeared. Very friendly. Asked if we were from Chicago and what brought us in. Told us about specials and then took our drink orders and when she was back with drinks (very quickly), we were ready to order. Approximately 5 minutes after we ordered, our food was delivered. On a Saturday night!! It was amazingly fast. I always order rare burgers and very rarely do I get them. I usually get mid-rare. But not at Gordon Ramsay's...it was perfect and rare. My husband and I both got the blue cheese burger. I HIGHLY recommend. Not only did our waitress provide us excellent service, other's stopped by when they saw a low drink or a plate that could be taken away. Prices were very reasonable for Chicago. We will return often!
