Old Chicago by KCI

Post by GRID »

Just a random northland post.

I met some relatives at the Old Chicago by KCI airport. It's in the bottom of a hotel along I-29. Never eaten at an Old Chicago. While I don't think it was anything like the Chicago style pizza you get in Chicago it was pretty good. There was hardly anybody there and it was not easy to find, so I wonder if it will survive. That area is starting to fill up with a lot of warehouses and stuff though, so maybe it will do okay.

It's been there for a few years, pre-COVID. So hopefully it's doing well.
KC is the way to be!

There is another one on Armour Road in NKC across from the Arby's by I-29.

I ate at one in Denver years ago; it was pretty good.

I was told it's only still open because the hotel chain requires there to be a restaurant and that's why their hours aren't very good because they are open just the bare minimum to meet hotel chain obligations. It's never open anytime I think to go eat there.
