Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

Back in the day this place would have recieved 5 stars but the prices have gotten too high for the lower quality food. The beers are expensive they need a good happy hr, back in the day is like 2-4 yrs ago. They used to have great specials the beer tours are over priced. Hey Corporate for Old Chicago the economy is bad and has been for a while so adjust like everyone else and offer specials. None the less the pizza is still really good. I ususally frequent the Arapahoe Crossing One or Illiff (Aurora) one due to them selling Dry Dock seasonal beer. I recently went to the Southlands Mall location and had a steak rare. Surprisingly it came out the correct temp rare is suppose to be. The steak was good!!! The server was very attentive and good. Good to see good customer service I wish I remembered his name. I gave him a good tip because he was good at his job, even though another server brought over dirty silverware to everyone at our table, it wasn't the main servers fault, that's why I still tipped him 40%. ***MORE DRINK SPECIALS, ESPECIALLY FOR THE PPL WHO DO THE BEER TOURS, THEY ARE FREQUENT CUSTOMERS!!!

I love adding a new beer to my tour every time I come in. There is a great selection of beers so there is something for everyone even if you don't like beer. The Sunday football food specials are awesome and definitely worth coming in to watch my games!

I'm rating this place against my experiences at other Old Chicagos. Working at Buckley for seven years, I've been to this location many many times for going away parties. The service has always been decent even for our large groups and they are very accommodating. There is plenty of space throughout the restaurant and the bar area is larger than some of the other locations I've gone to. I should probably mention that this is the only location that manages to deliver pizza rolls (which is the appetizer we usually order) before the meal and when I'm hungry, I appreciate that. I guess they take longer to make than the others and the fact that the staff knows that and plans accordingly is a plus.

terrible service ,newer waitress no help for her from manager for dinner party of 25,food was either late or not coming.
(1)Kevin Q.
Italian nachos were the favorite part of my meal, followed by pizza, and a drink at the bar
(4)Carl S.
We drive all the way from Montbello to get pizza here. Why? Because there isn't a good pizza place near where we live. Uno's doesn't cut it and they are right down the street. The pizza is consistently good at all the OC's I've been to.
(4)Rick K.
I can see why a few loyal customers might crucify me for giving this place an "A-OK" rating, but let's be real here... I never give Pizza & Beer joints 5 star ratings unless they are Gastropubs which might even brew their own beer. The pizza here is not even that great... BJ's pizza, a similar bar, trumps this place like Goliath would had destroyed David and it is not rated past 4 stars. I had no problems with the customer service, which was standard. Overall this is a pretty good place to have a get-together and watch the Super Bowl.
(3)Allyson M.
Avoid this restaurant if possible! The wait for a table took forever even after we called ahead. The service was awful. After waiting so long for a table, we were in a rush. So we explained this to the server and still no response to our request. We ended up having to box up our meals to go because we had to rush and leave. One of the most frustrating dining experiences I have had in quite awhile.
(1)Jessica J.
The menu is always changing which can be a good thing or a bad. Just when I find a new favorite it's gone and replaced with something new. Never had anything bad just average food. They have recently remodeled and updated the beer menu. They always have a good variety of beer. The bad thing is the beers are on a TV that scrolls through the list. This takes way too long. Get a printed list if they have one. The service...awful. When I make plans to go there I have to really think if it is worth the wait. The service is so slow that it keeps me from going back too frequently. The server could visit the table more. If I have to sit there with a empty glass, that's a problem. They also have a problem with bringing out your appetizer with your main course. I want to give OC 3 stars but I just can't. If the service was better I would.
(2)Phung L.
I come here because it's conveniently located down the street and because they have quite a few copious amounts of beers on tap and bottles to choose from. The food is ok, the happy hour menu used to be better until they removed the buffalo wings from it! It's pretty pricey for wings here. Italian nachos, I'm baffled to why it's still on the menu. The pizza here is good. Pepperoni pizza rolls are quite tasty. The staff here are great and they're very loyal to the regulars who frequent the bar here. Try the beer tour and get your name etched on a plaque and forever enshrined and showcased on their "wall of foam."

The middle of May is always a busy time for restaurants. Weddings, birthday and graduations seem to bombard the terrain, and this was no exception. To celebrate my boyfriends graduation from college, I made reservations for a party of 25. I was told our large party would most likely have a back room, so we could chit chat while making our rounds. I was surprised when they showed us to our table/area to find it packed with other tables, eating their meal. We had one long table, seated directly next to others dining out. I knew this would pose a problem as we were not going to have a sit down dinner and would be up and about. I explained that to the waitress and she seemed like it wasn't a problem. We ordered pitchers of beer, rounds of appetizers and eventually some couples ordered pizza, while my boyfriend and I talked/chatted with everyone. Before I knew it we were asked to sit down, and keep our party to just our tables...which to me, is utterly stupid. they were well aware of our situation and yet, sat tables next to us, creating conflict. At the end of the day, the food was good, our guests left happy and we had a good time. service was mediocre, but i suppose that's to be expected with a party of our size. Next time, i think our parties will be held elsewhere , and a dinner with less people would be optimal.

I'm not a huge fan of chain restaurants, but in terms of consistancy and good flavor Old C's is a great "go to" spot. No matter the location, there's plenty of seating and a large bar area. This is a great place to go for sporting events with their huge plasmas hanging everywhere, and the selection of beers on tap is fantastic. I've been there for happy hour and thought the drink prices were sub par but the food deals are great. I would consider Old C's a great option for friends to get together for a fun night!
(4)Tarena Z.
The waiter was super helpful! He suggested the perfect appetizer....the Italian nachos! He was right! Our water was never empty and the waiter came over often! He even changed the TV station so we could watch the Grammy awards. The food was perfect, we had the Meat Calzone, The Caesar Salad, the Fettuccini Alfredo and the Broccoli salad. The Fettuccini and the salad were the stars! At the end of the night our rewards card didn't process and the waiter still took our coupon for the free appetizer. Old Chicago's is a great place to go and enjoy a relaxed bite or beer where people really value your business. Its our new, GO TO local place

I'm sitting at the bar while two female "personnel" are having an extremely physical conversation.

I love that my friends are shocked whenever I say I've gone to, or even frequented, a chain restaurant. Now that we are moving into the city, I'm sure my reviews will be more hipster haunts for everyone. In the meantime, this Old Chicago is a dirty little secret we've been keeping. They have remodeled to be a taphouse and restaurant. I can only speak for the taphouse part. They have digital menus and many many beers on tap. We go mostly for happy hour because they have discounted beers and food and we may just be addicted to the Italian Nachos. You seat yourself in the bar area. Your server will let you sample some of the draft beers before you choose. They carry a lot of local stuff and I'm all about that. They have a pretty extensive happy hour food menu: pretzel bites, salads, mini pizzas, etc. The Italian Nachos, though. I think they are fried won tons? Tons of cheese, meats, pepperoncinis, sauce. I'm sure it's not good for your body, but it's good for your soul. Service has been friendly and consistent. A few times the bar or kitchen were busy and we had to wait, but not enough to get bent about. So, solid 4 stars. Safe bet in Aurora.
(4)Diane O.
Place was pretty enpty and slightly gross when I walked in and had to find a table to seat myself at, which was difficult because a lot of them hadn't been bussed. I sat at an available booth that had new silverware but spills and crumbs on the table top. The menu had seen better days and was warped and torn and sort of gross as well. Had chicken pesto pannini which was good. Fries we're a bit under cooked though. Food was very underwhelming, but I guess they're known for pizza. Spent about $15.. should have gone to Chipotle instead.
(2)Jese S.
I'm not sure why I don't come here more often. It's close to home, the food is pretty good and their mixed drinks are decent night as well. We stopped in to chill and have a few drinks after dinner. It was busy, tons of people and service was good for a busy Friday. We weren't overly bothered but the service was attentive. Worth a stop in if your in the area
(3)Rikki M.
We only ate here because we had a coupon. We were seated in what we discovered was a family room of sorts....super loud and lovingly including "that" guy that thinks making loud obnoxious noises in his kids face is acceptable....We reseated ourselves at the bar after about 10 min of no waiter attention...or drinks. Start me on the drunk part of the evening, and I'll wait for a long time, but that means drinks first. Once we sat at the bar it was SO much quieter and a lot less kids. The beers were yums, and we had calzones which were super delicious. I don't know how I stopped myself from eating the second half. The bar had a couple of regulars that were interesting to talk to also. Overall, solid experience, and we'll be back (Arnold voice)!
(4)Denise R.
Well to start off I love this place have a fab happy hour it just starts so late but really when it comes down to it it's worth coming in and just enjoying anything I personally do not like salad but their salad I love. I also had the calzone and you can make it your own everything was really really good. such big servings. you have to take home !! one of the best things here is the big cookie don't leave without it also I have to say I had the best waiter I've had in a long time he was young and all I could think was he had it all together never had to ask for anything but a box he was the best I wish there was one of him everywhere
(5)Victoria p.
Never had an issue with this place till today. Our server Nikki was very unprofessional and rude. We were just stopping in to eat and watch football. Apparently we didn't order enough because she responded with "that's it?!" and flipped us off while grabbing the menu. We will not be going back to this location. Very disappointed in the service.
(1)Jenyfer K.
The food was tasty but served cold. My burger was so cold I couldn't eat it. There was frost on my bun. Kinda gross. Server was just not nice. I would say thank you for something and she just walked away. Just acted like she didn't want us there. Not very impressed
(2)Tom H.
This location has convinced me that it is by far The Worst. This is the second time I have had to wait hours. 45 minutes to get a pizza. Then out appetizer came 25 minutes after that. We received a crappy apology and $5 dollars off. Tried tracking down the manager but she just walked by quickly with her nose in the air. This location lacks the ability that be a good bar and restaurant. They can't even cut a pizza right.
(1)Shaina S.
I crave and love Old C's $2 late night pub pizzas! The service here is just very slow. We came here on Saturday night at 10 for a late dinner after painting all afternoon. We didn't receive any food until after 11 and didn't get home until midnight. Everything was tasty, although not all correct, but we were so hungry and tired we just dug in anyway. I never saw a manager, and wouldn't have complained, but it's just always nice to see a supervisor keeping their staff accountable and providing their staff support. Our server had none.
(3)Tiara Q.
We tried so hard to love this place. We joined the club, spent hundreds of dollars, got some rewards, did the beer tours...it's just not awesome. The food is horrible. On my last visit I ordered a large cheese pizza. The cheese was so overcooked that it was dark brown and could be lifted off the crust in one sheet. Our server was so busy he didn't notice and I didn't have the patience to send it back. OC earns an extra star for beer selection but eating here is a joke. The salads are bland, the apps are lack luster. I feel like OC was amazing back in the 90s. Now it's like bland diner food.
(2)Lua F.
Decently priced. Got a good view of the game we liked and our server was very friendly! Was willing to make accommodations for us and didn't grimace about it! Very clean, but a little on the dark side. I could hardly see my menu, but the server gave us ample time to look over everything and decide :)
(5)Malaya W.
If I could give zero stars, I would. My husband was really wanting a good beer list so we drove over to Old Chicago. Sadly, we waited for well over ten minutes with absolute no service. We tried to flag multiple people down and no one even batted an eyelash at us. The straw that broke the camels back was two tables that sat after us received service while we were still being ignored. We walked out and not a single person acknowledged us. I'll never, ever be back. My husband and I are extremely busy and rarely get date nights together; I rather not waste our rare time together waiting for someone to even acknowledge the fact that we are paying customers.
(1)Debra C.
The atmosphere is of a typical sports bar, but the food is superior. Service is very good and the views of any sport playing is great. Lots of TV's and places to sit. They have great pizza and calzone, other items are also very good. A huge menu of food items to pick from. I never had a bad meal here. This time I got the individual size, thin crisy, Canadian Bacon and tomato with xtra cheese pizza. It was fabulous!
(4)Randy G.
Just a tip for this location if you have a group. Don't pay attention to the wait line, just grab a table and they will bus it for you in a flash. After waiting 15 min for my group to be seated, a group with two people more people walked in and waited 5 min. Seeing there were tables available, they walked to the bar and grabbed silverware and seated themselves. Server walked over and immediately cleaned their table for them. I asked the hostess how that happened and I was told "it's ok, two of them work here." After a few minutes later we simply did the same thing except we were brought silverware and the server immediately wiped our table down. Who knew the 'wait to be seated' thing is optional? Two stars for the server doing the busser job.
(2)Brenda L.
I was skeptical to try this place because I saw that it had 3 stars but my family and I needed to have dinner and it was pouring outside so we had to make a quick decision. We were nearby at best buy and decided to try this place for their pizza. We ordered the chi town trio appetizer for around $11 which consisted of a bruschetta with pesto sauce, Italian nachos made with pasta, and a rolled pretzel appetizer. All three were amazingly delicious as the waitress told is it would be. The bread for the bruschetta had the perfect crunch and the pasta chips were thin and crispy. I had never had anything like it. It's nothing like regular nachos because it doesn't have that corn flavor. The pretzel surpassed my expectations as well. I expected it to be tough and to taste like microwaved pretzel but it had a soft texture and had a sourness from the yeast that was really enjoyable. Our satisfaction with our appetizer gave us lots of excitement for our main dish: a 14 inch thin crust "meat me" pizza (for the meat-lovers). Our pizza was delicious and dad even boldly claimed the it was better than their previous favorite spot in Florida (a pizza spot that mom always talks about and craves). The crust is crunchy and easy to cut into. The pizza served us four just perfectly. I also tried the craft flight beer sampler that gives you four small cups of beer for under $5. I had an apricot beer, a coffee chocolate beer, a grapefruit beer and boulder beer hazed and infused. Mom is normally not a beer drinker but she enjoyed all four. The grapefruit beer had the bitter sweetness of real grapefruit. The apricot beer was an award winning beer that definitely won as my favorite. The coffee chocolate beer was dark and tasted great after the meal. On top of our enjoyable drinks and food, dad ordered a black coffee and got a freshly brewed one without charge! Food aside the decor is nice too. Walls are brick and wood which reminded me of a hot dog spot I went to in Chicago last fall. I'd most definitely come here again.
(5)Shiloh C.
This Old Chicago's is one of my faves. Their service was exactly as it should be, they have team spirit, they split our two items ordered for us and it resulted in perfect portions! My kid loves their pizza and loves their strawberry lemonade. Our server came at the exact right moments a server should. They are accommodating and made my husband coffee a well as made sure it tasted delicious. I will continue to come here again and again!
(5)Kimberli R.
Great food. Server let us know that he was waiting an hour and a half for us to leave. I don't understand why hostess sat us in a section that was closing. We came In at 9pm and left at 11pm. It took 45 minutes to get the food. Also Sprite spout was out of syrup so server offered ginger ale but told us we couldn't have free refills. Food was good but the service was not very good.
(2)Eric And Jennifer R.
Wrong location
(4)Amber J.
I have no idea how the food is at this location because we left before it got there. They had everyone shoved into the back room. It was so loud you couldn't hear anything. The kids glasses came with no lids, so of course we ended up with a spill. Instead of coming out with a rag to clean the table they brought us out two lids. Wth? A little late now. I saw multiple plates sent back and heard at least 3 people ask to speak with a manager.... like Old Chi normally, but this store had some of the worst service I have ever seen! We paid for our drinks and booked it out of there...NEVER AGAIN.
(1)Alicia P.
I'm from California and to say I haven't had a calzone this good. Dough was perfect not dry. Loved it! Wish they had one in LA. Only thing we had difficulty ordering on the phone they said they didn't have ham only bacon and in the end my calzone had ham. Just confusing overall good
(4)Michael P.
I have been at this location many times as I am a regular here because of the good service and wonderful food. But the drink selection is crazy good from beers, mixed drinks, and yes even the hard stuff. This is a popular happy spot so you should be prepared for a wait anytime from 5pm on to 7pm as the bar fills up. My family enjoys the pizza and the underrated salads as well. Very solid place to hang out.
(4)Amanda B.
My boyfriend and I wanted to grab some lunch after work. We both enjoy the salad at Old Chicago. We have been to this particular location before and have mediocre service, pizza messed up and terrible wait staff. We thought we would try again because it is right down the way from my children's school. We go in sit down at the open seating at the bar. The hostess comes over doesn't say hello kiss my ass or anything just puts the menus on the table. So I say as she is walking away hello how are you today with no response. So my boyfriend goes to the restroom comes back still no waitress/waiter. So we get up and leave. TERRIBLE SERVICE AT ILIFF LOCATION. We went across the parking lot to Anthony 's, much better over here.
(1)Steve W.
Visited again and had a spinach bacon pizza on tavern thin crust. This pizza was delicious! The service was excellent as always. I will continue to take my family to this Old Chicago.
(5)Elizabeth B.
I love this place! Come here often. The jalapeño cheese pretzels are great and I love the fact that they support local schools and their fundraisers. That says a lot about a place. Service is normally very good and the environment is family friendly but you can also come for football or late night drinks!
(5)Ty K.
Pizza was really good! One of the best personal pans I've EVER had. However, the service was not all that great. She checked on us right after she brought us our pizza. Soon after that, I was in need of a refill, but she was nowhere to be seen. She reappeared, walked right past us, and went to clean off a table. 5 minutes passes and she finally asks if I want a refill. Umm, yes! On the upside, I really liked their salad--nothing fancy, but the Italian dressing and sliced almonds are good! The boyfriend liked the beer blend called "Snakebite". I would go back, but maybe to the Southlands location instead.
(3)Jodi A.
So. About six months ago we ordered a chicken pizza here, we each only ate one slice, and took the rest home. At about 4 am both of us were nauseous. We threw out the entire pizza and vowed never to return. Last night I decided to go again, and we thought by avoiding chicken, we would be okay. I had a Panini, and my bf had a calzone. I am very sure by our gastro-intestinal issues this morning, and today, that there is something amiss at Old Chicago. Like, maybe improper food storage? Italian food usually doesn't make you sick...well, Italian food that is FRESH doesn't make you sick. When you come back and try again, getting the same results, methinks I would like Tri-county to nose around and check the freshness dates on the stored food, and the cleanliness of the kitchen. Go here for beer, avoid the food. Sad. Old Chicago used to be a favorite. Goodbye.
(1)Laura M.
When we walked in the first thing that assaults your nose is a funky, dirty, puke smell! My appetite was instantly ruined! Ordered a grill cheese & soup but just wanted to leave! Stayed for the hubby. The tv's were up so loud you couldn't talk comfortably, and only about 10 customers in the building. Then the music came on which was even louder. My husband took silverware off another table so we could eat. Even the water tasted foul and I drink airport water everyday so for me to comment on it means it's really bad! When our food was delivered, the girl slid our food on the opposite end of the table from where we were sitting! Sliding my cell & my hubbys glasses down the table, forcing us to get our own dishes! Little cheese on my grilled cheese but tomato soup was good. I would give this place a negative star rating if I could!
(1)Rico S.
I was visiting Aurora on business when my phone died. Me (and most of us I'm sure) , I'm attached to my phone so I had to get another one from the nearest T-Mobile. (I got a S3 if you're curious) While I waited for my 7000 contacts to transfer from one phone to another, I decided to get some food from across the way at Old Chicago Pizza. The associate suggested that I actually NOT get a pizza but actually one of their calzones or chicken wings. I took his advice and ordered the calzone and salad. They were very good as was my waitress, Amanda. She (sinfully) recommended the margaritas to wash it all down. I appreciate that, but what if I was on lunch break from work? My boss woulda had me hemmed up for walking into work sideways! Good place for bar food and sports. If I was an Auroranite (did I say that right?), I'd hit Old Chicago Pizza on the regular. The only reason why I gave it a 3 was because its supposed to be a pizza place and the pizza wasn't recommended.
(3)Travis J.
Great staff, VERY quick, and stylish This place has it all. How many places can you go to where the managers will come over and ask you how everything is going for you. The staff know's their types of beer and are VERY familiar with what beer tastes like what. Its always drama free and usually pretty quiet. I give this place 6 stars out of 5 but Yelp won't allow me to do that so I guess I'll settle with 5/5stars.
(5)samantha c.
Can I rate it even If I never got served? That is the question. My hubby and I showed up today for an early dinner. I'm assuming that was part of the problem as a lot of the dinner servers weren't at work yet. We were asked if we wanted to sit in the noisy bar area, or would prefer a booth. We chose a booth and were seated. The host informed us that our waiter wasn't on yet, but another waiter that had tables in the same room would help us out until our server got there in 15 minutes. Well in that entire 15 minutes we sat there, I watched a server take care of two tables, bring them food, and leave. I'm not even sure if she glanced at us or not. A bit later I watched a couple of servers walk into the restaurant, obviously getting ready for their shift. I then watched a different server poke his head into the room of tables, make eye contact and leave. At that point the hubby and I hadn't even had anyone take a drink order, so we chose to leave. On the way out we walked past three servers chatting around the computer. I was really looking forward to the meal I never got, but waiting 15+ minutes and not even being acknowledged is ridiculous.
(1)Jake P.
I'm not one to frequent franchises but this place has me nailed down as a regular customer. We've only had one waitress that performed poorly. The rest always do a great job. Even the bartenders are cool to talk to and the food is great. Some prices are a little steep for what you get, but they make up for that with the good beer selection.
(4)Michelle J.
When we first moved to Aurora we heard this was the "go-to" place for pizza. You know what, it's true. Their pizza is pretty dang good. But this place still isn't my favorite, because of the decor, service, & their other food. My favorite things are their pizza, cookies, & nachos. That's it. They have a sports bar theme, but kind of old-looking. I've had terrible service before, and other times I've had amazing service, so I guess it varies. Just remember if you have an issue with service or food, take it up with management. Another word of warning, this place gets loud. So if your not into the "people screaming so loud you can't hear yourself think" kinda thing, then don't go on a day that a major sports game is playing. P.s. they offer military discount. depending on the manager, you could get it off your entire bill or only the portion for the military member. Also, they offer pickup.
(4)Mean Guy I.
This is a great place to go if you want to be part of the falling down drunk crowd as most of the seating is just in front of the bar stools, nothing like a compliment from a drunk guy on you're food order and wife's boobs as the booths are set on a riser that puts you right in the action... Omg ! I mean the food is franchise standard and good for the most part...I'll stick to the take out thank you..
(1)Mila G.
I usually love Old C's, its a staple for our friends. But this one is a little sad. The wait staff seem to not know details about the menu, and forget to bring the side dips and such. We had to ask for our water to be refilled. I think they need better management is all. But the food is what you expect from Old C's, and the prices are still good.
(3)Rhea T.
This Old Chicago has the worst service I have ever had! The food at Old Chicago is usually predictable. It's close to our house so we go there a couple times a month. The last few times we have sat in the bar and have had the same waiter. The bar is usually full. We waited (and I counted since I used to serve) 10 minutes to be greeted. We waited another 10 minutes for our drinks. When our server finally dropped our drinks off he ran away and we were already to order and told him that! He just ignored us! By the time we ordered and got our food, it was 52 minutes since we had been seated. Not to mention that he had given me the wrong salad. So, they took back the salad they brought me and made the one I wanted to go. The manager came over and gave us a $10 voucher! Are you kidding me! $10 to come back and visit your crappy establishment?!!! I was insulted. Never again. There are too many good places out there with better food and actually decent service.
(1)Heather R.
I got take out Friday night. I had to wait on my order because it wasn't ready (why carry out takes longer the dine in really doesn't make sense) then I get home and my order is wrong. They are fine when it comes to dine in. Pick up your own food and it's never right. Why I bother I don't know.
(2)Russell G.
If you read my other Old chicago review, you know I am a fan of this chain. I felt I had to review this Old Chicago because I had a great time the three times I've been here. The place has a large seating area and flat screens hanging on the walls so you can catch the game. Also, all the Old chicagos are linked so you can drink at any of them and your beer count will be kept correct for your card. This Old chicago has very attractive girls at the front (at least when I go there) and the waiters/waitresses have been attentive and friendly. The menu is the same at all the others so they have the $10 and $11 dinner deals but here is why I like this place: Last time I came here, they were giving away all sorts of stuff for Halloween. Caramel apples, marshmellows dipped in chocolate, cookies in the shape of fingers and most important, bottle openers! You can never have too many. they gave away so much free food that I couldn't finish my dinner and had to take some home with me. If you live on the border of Denver and Aurora, check out this Old Chicagos but don't make a special trip here if you live somewhere else. Just find another one closer to you. they are all over.

Why take the nacho's off the menu??? They were some of the best around town!! Even the bartenders are complaining about taking them off!! Rarely go there now, Challenger's Sports Bar, just down the road has Great Nacho's!!!

Though this Old Chicago isn't the closest to my house, I still go out of my way to drive to this location because of the great experiences I've had! I'm a regular here, our usual server Michael (I think that's his name) recognizes us everything we come in and is SUPER friendly and is great at suggesting new drinks to try (since my guy and I are new to 21). Everyone is really friendly! The late night menu is an AWESOME deal and the food is always hot, the beer is always ice cold and everything is yummy. Great service, great food, the only thing that I could point out is that when it gets really busy on nights like Friday nights, things get a little crazy and the service suffers because of it. Last time, we were served spicy fried pickles that were WAY too spicy, to the point where we couldn't even eat them (and I love spicy foods). There have only been a few times where things like this have happened. But I love this spot, keep up the good work!

First off, I am a big fan of the Old Chicago franchise. I have been to numerous Old Chicago's across the United States and this one is my favorite one by far. The primary reason is the atmosphere and their set up in the bar area. The TVs are positioned in a way that allows the viewed to watch several different sporting events/games at one time. A lot of the other bar and grills do not offer this arrangement. On football Sundays it's easy to relax and watch all the games from where you are setting. The service I have experienced is also great. Waiters and Waitresses are always friendly and definitely take good care of you. I have yet to have a bad experience at this location and recommend it for a night out to enjoy a some great drinks.

Writing a positive review to balance out the negative one from a new yelper. So we are in a recession but I went here at 7:30pm on a Wednesday night and the place was packed. There was no special game on TV, this place is just good for groups and obviously people like it. Wait time to be seated was a bit long (hostess was nowhere to be found when we arrived) but a manager walked over and promptly took care of us. The atmosphere was friendly and there were a few employees hanging Christmas lights so that was cheery and fun. I thought the dining experience was very consistent with the chain and my server (plus her trainee) were both helpful and attentive. They even made good recommendations. During the meal a manager stopped by to make sure everything was good and I was pleased with the personal service (no, not just because I take pictures of everything I eat and take notes...jk, I don't take notes...or do I?). The italian nachos are awesome, I liked the antipasto salad and would order it again, the pizza was delicious and I had plenty for lunch the next day. We finished our meal with turtle cheesecake and it was obviously brought in but it was delicious just the same. Shame on the other reviewer for giving a fine restaurant an unfair review. I went to Old Chicago with appropriate expectations and I was not treated rudely so the establishment gets 4 stars and I will probably go back.

I would have to say that my feeling about Old Chicago's has changed. They have a much better happy hour, 1/2 price appetizers and $1 off beers. They could do better with beer prices, the food is a great deal! I have come to enjoy quite a few of the staff members. Yes, there are still some staff members that are more interested in the host area or the regulars...too bad they loose out on a FAT tip!

Its good food but they got rid of a lot of the good waiters, waitresses and the best bartenders. Now I hardly go there at all.
