Old Chicago

I don’t dine out as often but when I do, Old Chicago is one of those places that just feels right. I usually dine there for small occasions like a friend birthday or sometimes even to just go and watch a game. Their food is so fast and hot, the service was great, customer s are their number one priority and if I have another event; this definitely a to go place for next time. You should try it out I promise they won’t disappoint.

Ordered through GrubHub for delivery. Order arrived on time and hot. I wasn't aware this was a chain when I ordered here, and had I known that I probably wouldn't have ordered from here. We ordered two kid's Chicago style pizzas and the spinach artichoke dip. First off, this is no where even close to Chicago style. We were expecting deep dish, but like a small 6" individual sized. It's not even pan pizza. It also looks and tastes like a prefabricated crust with sauce straight out of a can. As far as value goes, it's a 6", 2 topping pizza with a drink for less than $6. I think most kids would like it. It's not terrible pizza, it's just not Chicago style. The spinach dip also tasted like and looked like it came out of a bag. The chips that came with it looked and tasted like fried wonton wrappers or the crunchy noodles that come with soup at Asian restaurants. Not worth the price in my opinion.

We go to the Highlands Ranch Location. We love to bring our dog Rudy and sit on the patio. The server is usually Melinda. Melinda does such a great job with the menu, answering questions, etc, but she treats Rudy like a King. Fresh water and a little snack has been part of the program. I was in the Restaurant Business for over 50, working with my own concepts and a lengthy stint with the Claim Jumper. The food is always great, the beer cold and the service spot on. We like the Thai Pie Pizza. Hats off to Melinda and the rest of the staff. We look forward to returning soon.

It's been tough finding an Old C's around lately with all the closures they've had over the last couple years, so when we saw this one we were excited to get back. I wasn't blown away nor was I under impressed by this location. They were busy and could've used another server on shift, so the service and food turn were pretty slow. Food was hot and prepared to order but again not what I remembered from back in the day. We'll be back since it's the only one remotely close and it wasn't a terrible experience.
