Chicago Restaurants

DH and I are headed to Chicago for the first time for a long weekend next weekend (fly in late on a Friday, leave Monday afternoon). We%26#39;d love some great restaurant reccomendations for:

Deep dish pizza (of course!)

Dessert

Sunday Brunch

Breakfast in general

Sushi

Best place to grab a drink

and any others that cannot be missed!

TIA!

Chicago Restaurants

You don%26#39;t mention dining budgets or areas of the city where you will be, so it%26#39;s really difficult to give you some viable suggestions. Perhaps you could give us some more details to assist.

I did want to mention that the May edition of Travel and Leisure has listed four Chicago restaurants in their 50 Best New Restaurants listing L20 (Lincoln Park), Perennial (Lincoln Park), Publican (West Town) and Urban Belly (Avondale) - which, I might add, is fairly close to Hot Doug%26#39;s, but far from the beaten path. Unfortunately Hot Doug%26#39;s won%26#39;t be open when you are here, from April 27 through April 30. Mentioning this for others%26#39; sake, though - hope you don%26#39;t mind!

Oops! That%26#39;s Travel %26amp; Leisure%26#39;s 50 Best New *American* Restaurants. Sorry.


Please search for pizza, brunch and breakfast on this forum. You%26#39;ll find recent posts.

www.chicagoreader.com has a great dining search tool. You can search by location, cuisine, budget etc.


Pizza: Pizzeria Uno (or Due), Lou Malnati%26#39;s, or Giordano%26#39;s.

Breakfast: Nookies, Tempo Cafe

Plenty of options. Check out www.yelp.com in addition to searching these forums.


I have a similar question. I%26#39;ll be travelling on Greyhound this week and will have a 12-hour layover in Chicago. Are there any pizza restaurants you can recommend in the vicinity of the Greyhound station ? I would like some authentic Chicago Pizza, price is no object. Thanks


I think the Giordano%26#39;s on Adams is the closest pizza to the Greyhound station. There is an Aurelios%26#39; next door to the bus station, but I%26#39;ve never eaten at that location. And it%26#39;s not Chicago style pizza.

With a 12 hour layover, you%26#39;ve got time to visit Little Italy. 鈥etromix.com/facets/鈥?/a>

Or - Edwardo%26#39;s Natural Pizza

521 S. Dearborn St.

(312) 939-3366


Sorry I meant the Giordano%26#39;s on Jackson. it%26#39;s .71 miles according to mapquest

223 W Jackson Blvd

(between Franklin St %26amp; Wells St)

There%26#39;s also a new Lou%26#39;s that opened up in the South Loop at 805 S. State if you prefer deep dish over stuffed, it%26#39;s 1.15 miles according to Mapquest

www.loumalnatis.com/Locations/Details.aspx鈥?/a>

Those are the two closest I can think of


Thank You, I%26#39;ll try Edwardo%26#39;s. They have excellent reviews and are within walking distance. Thank You for your help !


Thanks for your help everyone!
