One of the most exclusive pizza spots in Chicago, George's Deep Dish, is delivering painstakingly delicious artisan deep dish pizzas to you on Sunday, May 31st. Order quantities are very limited...so don't miss out.
New to the Chicago food scene in 2021, owner George Bumbaris started doing take-out only in extremely limited quantities. Why not make more, people asked? For the same reason that made the pizzas so popular in the first place--the incredibly delicious crust that must rise for two days before it's made into a pie. Add on your own toppings--or pick from the specialty flavors with names as fun as the pizza is mouthwatering. We like Clooney's ER--cup + char pepperoni pairs perfectly with Italian sausage, beef meatballs, and bacon. Don't worry, veggie pizzas aren't an afterthought though. We also recommend McFly's Sci-Fi with goat cheese, baby spinach, grape tomatoes, castelvetrano olives, and roasted garlic. New to our menu are George's sourdough tavern style pizza, in true Chicago fashion. Salads and desserts available as well.
Order by 10am on Sunday. Your order will be available for home delivery between 2:30 - 6:00pm.
Twice is nice! Order from more than one restaurant for the same delivery day and only pay the DwellSocial fee once.View menu + order: <a href="https://dwell.social/3RCwPqg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">dwell.social/3RCwPqg</a>
