| - On paper, Old Chicago has one of those menus where you could probably pick anything and at least be somewhat satisfied. And overall, I consider my experience above average.
I originally planned on drinking water that evening, but their selection of 110 beers made me reconsider. And the Signature Trio (Italian Nachos, Sicilian Pepperoni Rolls, and Cheese Garlic Bread) was just awesome. Please get this appetizer! After a Guinness and these fun snacks, I was feeling pretty good about Old Chicago.
Pizza is one of those foods that is really hard not to enjoy, and Old Chicago's pizza was enjoyable. The sauce, cheese and toppings on their "Chicago Seven" were topnotch.
However, there is much to be desired in terms of quality of their Chicago-style crust. I wasn't willing to write it off that night on account of how full I was after the Signature Trio, but leftovers the next day validated it. I am a fan of that style of crust, just not Old Chicago's.
I would be willing to go back and try the thin crust since everything else about the experience was good. But I'll be trying other restaurants first before coming back here.
