Delicious deep dish but jolting, jarring PA system!
3 Star Rating: Average

This is a wonderful place to find good pizza, and I take my friends there when they come to town. But I have a big beef about the noise level at the restaurant, and it's not due to the patrons, it's due to the big speakers that constantly blast waiting customers' names. "SMITH PARTY OF 5!!!!" It's continuous, and it's incredibly loud, and my conversation with my friend must have been interrupted 200 times during our meal. It was very frustrating and ruined the meal. People should be able to chat during a meal. There must be better ways to summon the customers who are waiting for tables...perhaps pagers. However they do it, it's really crucial for Due's to figure out how to create a quiet, welcoming atmosphere where people can be comfortable. Tasty food is only one element of successs.

Pros: Wonderfully good deep dish pizza

Cons: The loud PA system that's unrelented, and the sometimes long waits

Editor's Review

The second half of the old-school pizza power house, it achieves Uno's deep-dish perfection in a more comfortable setting.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

When to Go

Avoid weekends at all costs; typical waits can approach two hours. The express lunch is a great way to get the goods on the go.
