We were getting hungry fast and not finding any restaurants open that would qualify as memorable on our last day in Chicago. CitySearch was recommending restaurants that didnt open for several hours and we needed lunch. Thankfully we asked someone collecting for charity and they recommended Rocco's (or Rocco Ranalli's). We tried the Rocco's Special, a great thin crust pizza choice. I am not one who appreciates mushrooms but the 'shrooms on this pizza were so fresh that there was no not-liking them. The draft beer was very cold and just what a Saturday lunch in Chicago called for. As the Black Hawk's were in the playoffs, the large flatscreen TVs were tuned in but the diners were not boisterous in the least. In closing, should I ever find myself back in CHI anytime soon, Rocco's will be on my short list.
Pros: Amazing Thin Crust Pizza, Atmosphere
Cons: None Found in One Visit
