Italian Beef Pizza with Buona Beef debuts at Giordano's locations
Return of the Italian Beef Pizza reflects the Giordano's brand’s continued commitment to honoring the flavors that define Chicago while making its recipes accessible nationwide.

Giordano's Italian Beef Pizza
Chicago-based deep-dish pizza brand Giordano's is bringing back its Italian Beef Pizza for a limited time, available for dine-in, carryout and delivery through April 6, 2026. Originally introduced in May 2025 as a nationwide shipping exclusive as part of the brand’s Chi-Town Flavors series, the Italian Beef Pizza quickly sold-out online and became a standout among customers.
Created in collaboration with Buona Beef and from the mind of Giordano's Head Chef Jesse Harris, the specialty pie combines two legendary Chicago staples, Italian beef, and deep-dish pizza, featuring Buona Beef layered with roasted sweet green peppers and Caruso’s spicy giardiniera.
For the first time, the Italian Beef Pizza will be available across all of Giordano’s signature crust styles, including the brand’s Stuffed Deep Dish, Traditional Thin Crust and new Tavern-Style pizza.
“Italian beef is one of Chicago’s most iconic flavors, and when we first introduced this pizza last year as an online exclusive, our guests immediately embraced it,” said Harris. “Bringing it into our restaurants and offering it across all of our crust styles allows us to showcase a true Chicago favorite in a way that encourages guests to gather, share, and celebrate together.”
