Ditto on the pizza! Lou Malnati's is the best. I get the feeling Giordano's is more of a south side thing. Who cares! Lou's wins hands down. For a little variety, California Pizza Kitchen is good, though not authentically Chicago. Duh.
As for other food, I hate to say Chipotle has the best burrito in town (I know it's a McD's chain!) Sorry. For more authentic burritos, El Famous comes in a close second.
Buffalo Wild Wing is my new favorite for chicken wings, with Buffalo Joes of Evanston a close second.
Steak, Ruths Chris' by far. Oven seared at 800 degrees I think. Awesome.
Italian? Head to RoseAngelis in Lincoln Park for a tucked away little gem.
For Italian beef there's none better than Annies in River Forest. What? Portillo's? Whatever! Portillo's sucks.
Seafood? Bob Chinns in Wheeling my man, Bob Chinns.
