Tried Gino's East because we love Lou Malnati's and know there's a big rivalry. After getting the deep dish, I'm not sure how anyone could even compare the two. The deep dish and thin crust were hard as a rock. The rest was just mediocre. The dining area wasn't very large, and with the exception of one area, all the large booths only accommodate 6 people. Icing on the cake was when a food runner tried to place a hot pizza at the end of the table right in front of a 1 year old . The prices are certainly fair, but it's not worth the drive for my family. I'm disappointed this was a miss.
