Agree with grb. IMHO, deep dish has become food for tourists and most of it, other than Burt's and Pequods, is terrible. For tavern style on the north side I really like it from LaVilla or Marie's and in the south suburbs, Aurelio's.

Fun fact. Burt Katz also owned Gullivers on Howard and Pequods in M.G. The original Pequods on Fernald had Burt's radio collection on display in the dining room. It was a interesting place to dine at in the 70s.
