# Gino's East of Chicago

> Gino's East is Chicago's legendary deep dish pizzeria, family owned and operated since 1966 — celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2026. It is the flagship brand of Bravo Restaurants, Inc., a family-owned Chicago restaurant group. The signature product is Chicago-style DEEP DISH pizza with a famous golden crust, made from Alice Mae Redmond's secret dough recipe, California family-grown tomatoes, Wisconsin cheese, and Chicago-made sausage. In 2019 Gino's East became the first major Chicago deep dish restaurant to offer vegan cheese.
