The restaurant will create nearly 120 jobs for the area. To celebrate the opening in Dallas, Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom has partnered with local charity, CitySquare. One dollar from every Chicago 7™ and Meat Me™ specialty pizza ordered after 3 p.m. this month through January 4 will be donated to the organization in support of the fight against hunger and poverty.
