Pizano’s Pizza & Pasta blends classic Italian recipes and fresh takes on traditional fare in one satisfying menu. The son of Pizzeria Uno founder and deep dish creator Rudy Malnati Sr., Pizano’s owner Rudy Malnati Jr. knows what makes an Italian dish truly delicious; high-quality ingredients, authentic recipes, and excellent service. Bowls of seafood marinara and chicken alfredo share menu space with bubbling deep dish pizza and Pizano’s award-winning thin crust pizza, a favorite of critics and visitors alike, including Oprah Winfrey, who featured the restaurant on her show. Located in the heart of Jeweler’s Row, the Madison Street location embodies historic Chicago dining, as timeless songs by Sinatra and Martin fill the air while diners gaze at numerous photos of famous athletes and entertainers line deep, rich wooden walls.

Phenomenal place for deep dish pizza! We were just there for the day and this restaurant fit in with our plans. The restaurant was an incredible find. The food was excellent and so was the service. We mentioned we were from out of town and the waitress even gave us a postcard! Can’t recommend enough.

Chicken parm entree, Caesar salad, and deep dish sausage pizza were all good. Service was great. Too noisy for conversation, though, and guys next to us argued with raised voices.

We ate with our two kids on our one night in Chicago. Pizano’s fit the bill overall- atmosphere, service were great. The food was somewhat lacking but still worked well for our first Chicago deep dish experience. In the end, we had a lovely evening with our kids and left happy.
