Growing up in Chicago, I think I can safely say I know Chicago style pizza. It's in my blood. I've been going to Oregano's for years since living in Phoenix and it never fails to impress me from location to location. It's Chicago style all the way!
This past weekend we decided to dine at the Paradise Valley location and again we were very well taken care of. From the greeting you receive when you walk in the door to the service and staff. It's always pleasant. What really is something that isn't new to the restaurant business but Oregano's does so well is during the meal, a manager stops by to make sure everything is going well. A manager, who was actually quite funny, came out and not just to ask "How is everything". No she genuinely made sure all was good made us feel like we are being taken care of. In a busy restaurant like this to have that kind of attention is impressive. One thing I have to say is a stand out for me and is so incredibly important is consistency. It's the reason I've been going to Oregano's for years and will continue for years to come.
We had the Stuffed Numero One. What I would normally call "Deep Dish" in Chicago. I still get confused about how to order that, but I digress. It's a larger pizza and when you order it they always tell you it will take 45 min's. Our server was great about coming back and checking to make sure we were doing ok, filling drinks and making sure all was good.
The best part of the night? Leftovers!
If you're looking for great pizza, excellent service and a nice evening out do yourself a favor and go to Oregano's!
