About

Gino’s East serves Chicago-style deep-dish and tavern-style pizza, with vegan cheese available for build-your-own pies and the O.M.G. combination. Deep-dish baking takes about 40–60 minutes, and reviewers note that topping and vegan-cheese surcharges can add up; the walls lined with celebrity photos and the lively sports-bar feel make the wait part of a casual Chicago visit.
