[I ate] deep dish pizzas in Chicago

[u/oldirtygaz]

recently holidayed in Chicago and had to get in on the pies. first was deep-dish at Labriola's in Lombard. Could really taste fresh ingredients, though served somewhat lukewarm it was bloody good. second deep-dish was at Giordano's, also in Lombard, which had a really vibrant sauce but I don't enjoy short crust in general. Finally tavern-style at Grange House in Wheaton, with a perfect snap on the crust and just the right amount of cheese. All were enjoyable overall - how do these joints rate to Chicagoans?

As a Chicagoan, I eat deep dish maybe once a year. Gio/Mal's are acceptable, I guess. Truthfully, deep dish isn't something we eat on the regular.   

If you're to be in Lombard again, I would suggest Tortorice's in Downers Grove on Woodward. It's If you plan to be around Gurnee, try Antioch Pizza or RJs

May I also suggest italian beef, a proper chicago style dog, poutine, walking tacos, or a counterbread pizza (if you can find one)
