About

Gino’s East is a Chicago-style pizza restaurant where reviewers repeatedly recommend the vegan-cheese deep dish; one visitor said a 9-inch pie was enough for two. Deep dish can take 30–60 minutes, though the lunch special may arrive sooner, and reviewers describe attentive servers who check on vegan and allergy questions.
