Authentic pan-style pizza. Uno's is the original dark, cramped joint. Due's is larger and brighter. Other locations came much later.
Their frozen pizza is available at Albertson's (now Lucky's) in CA. Look for it in the refrigerated section in the deli area.

Another fine Chicago pan-style pizza place. Lots of arguments about whether Uno's or Gino's is better. They're both good. (E. Superior location is the original.)

"Stuffed" pizza is 2-3x as thick as pan pizza. Try the stuffed spinach. Per Chicago folklore the founder "borrowed and improved" Giordano's recipe.

The original "stuffed" pizza invented on the South Side of Chicago. (Although there may be some merit to those who claim it's Nancy's on the NW Side, Nancy's is just different than Edwardo's and Giordano's.) I prefer Edwardo's, however Giordano's is not bad.

A South Side traditional pizza place, mostly unknown to North Siders. Good thin pizza.
