“I’m Chicago born and raised, so yeah—I don’t play about my pizza. Deep dish, tavern-style, Sicilian… I love it all. So when my friends kept talking up Smash Pizza, we decided to try it for Mother’s Day. It’s a cute, smaller spot, so just know you might have to wait or do takeout. But the staff made it worth it—our waitress (purple ponytail, wish I caught her name!) was so warm and helpful with recommendations. We started with the bread plate, and listen…that alone was a win. Fresh bread, olive oil, butter, burrata—honestly didn’t even need the extras, it was that good. Now the pizza. I was a little skeptical because Chicago folks know—we like our crust thin with a little crunch. But we went with their Sicilian style and I’m so glad we did. That crust? Light, airy, crispy…nothing like that chain pizza pan crust. Just done right. We got the Queen, and my son tried the mushroom and fried kale. I don’t even like mushrooms, but that fried kale? So good—crispy, flavorful, perfect texture. Everything tasted fresh. Like, really fresh. Hell, even the water tasted fresh, lbs! All in all, this place is legit. I haven’t had pizza like that in a long time—it really reminded me of home. If you’re thinking about going, just go. It’s worth it.“

“Seriously the best slice of cheese pizza I've ever had. And it was h u g e. And it was only five bucks. Brought a vegan pie all the way back to the Chicago suburbs and it was the best vegan pizza I've had.“

“hadn't been here in 20+ years. Last time I was a child! randomly stopped here with a friend to catch up over dinner. THE BEST! food was incredible! our server was polite, friendly, and helpful. so so so good!“

“Had a great lunch at Pagalo’s. We had a large group, service was great and the food was even better. Can’t beat the lunch special, choice of two items - individual pizza, soup or a salad for $10.99. We’ll be back and next time will save room for gelato. Well done, Pagalo’s!“

“I have never been unhappy with anything that I have ordered. Their food is great. I always order delivery because I'm handicapped, and the food is hot and delicious when it's delivered.“

“We tried the thin crust. So good! Keep up the good work!“

“I drive 7 hrs round trip just to get your pizzas. I get 4 large,bring them home and seperate them in freezer bags. Pop a few slices in the oven when I get home from work and it is just like having it freshly baked ❤ Thanks for always being so delicious ❤“

“Great pizza, great people, great environment, was my first time trying St. Giuseppe and Joe gave me and my wife a free small cheese bread! We will most definitely be back, as places with great pizza, individuals, and a great family environment, are places I look to spend my money. 10/10. 😁“

“Can’t say enough. I’ve had my fair share of Chicago style pizza and I’m hands down saying it’s the best. The crust and flavor to the toppings and cheese/sauce was on point. Also, ordered the traditional wings that were crispy and meaty. Would highly recommend and will be going back when traveling around here. Need to open one up in Des Moines…. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. I don’t ever write reviews but Tony’s was impossible not too.“

“guy who took my order was really cool food is a solid 9.8 out of 10 will be going back again for sure kids wife really loved the wings and the cheese bread sause is really well made pizza is bomb so is the chicken calzone very good price aswell so if you got a family or by your self try it for your self you wont be disappointed awsome food thinks again terrific pizza“

“Pizza Joynt provided dinner for all the beautiful people at the emergency shelter in Rock Island for people who are homeless and needed help during sub zero temperatures this weekend. Thank you so much for supporting your community. Highly recommend checking them out.“

“Best pizza in QC Area they need to bring back to eatin dinning so enjoy the Fresh taste from there oven to my Table“

“We love this place. The pizza is good and the price is a bargain. We've been buying it for years. The one that was closest to us closed, and we were very disappointed. We don't get to have it as often now that we're farther away, but it's always a treat when we do. We have our favorites but tonight we branched out and tried the new Detroit style pizza and cinnamon wheel. I highly recommend both.“

“I love picking pizzas up from here. It’s always fast and the food is amazing!“

“Just wanna start off by saying that the waitress we had on Saturday evening (Dec 7) was incredible. They had a pizza only menu (due to there being an event at the Arena), and she explained very well why they do that. I told her that I had a dairy sensitivity and cannot have pizza, and she was quick to accommodate! She had the kitchen make me a BBQ sandwich with chips. Her kindness and gesture will never be forgotten! Thank you for being so attentive!

Also, the Bugsy BBQ Chicken Pizza is INCREDIBLE!!

Side note: This place is conveniently located near hotels and the Vibrant Arena, so you can walk instead of worrying about finding a place to park! :)“

“Best place to go to make at home and smell the fresh food and make your home smell like your homecooking always recommend going to this papa Murphy’s to get your pizza all employees , managers and everyone who works there is the best friendly and kind I would always go to this papa murphys never a day that it is made wrong or bad employees they are all friendly whoever is working“

“Went to order for delivery and everything went smoothly until the uber driver my order was assigned to STOLE my pizza. I went in and spoke with the manager and he helped me turn in the driver and obtain my refund. They remade my pizza and then added in some extras! I greatly appreciated the service, and the conversation, super amazing team of guys that made my night.“

“We live in Iowa but drove to the Silvis location for my step father’s birthday and brought our toddler with us. The manager that was on duty was one of the kindest people I’ve ever encountered at a restaurant and the food came out fast and was delicious. I would gladly make this drive again just to have this same experience. Our daughter even ate almost two slices of pizza she loved it so much. Thank you for everything. We will be back soon.“

“You want a good pie Alfanons will not disappoint. I have had several pizzas from here and have never had a bad one. Alfanos is an authentic Italian family owned business that has been in Rock Island forever. They are carry out only, no dining area andim not sure if they deliver. Definitely worth giving them a try.“

“We live in North Liberty and last minute made a decision to drive an hour to the quad cities to spend Valentine’s Day. We quickly realized we may have waited too long and couldn’t find anywhere taking reservations or walk ins. We came across antonellas and waited for them to open. I’m so glad we did! I’m not sure if we would’ve enjoyed anywhere else quite as much. They were short staffed and still delivered us a perfect meal from the wine to the pasta. Friendly faces, personable service, and excellent Sicilian cuisine. Thanks for making our valentines special! We will be back!“

“Stashu’s did a great job on the deer meat I recently took to them. It’s some of the best deer sausage I’ve ever had!“

“Our staff was friendly and kind“

“Bettendorf is our halfway stop to home and we were looking for a good pizza. We found Harris and ordered on the road. Food was done exactly when promised. There was a slight mess up on order but staff quickly remedied it and more than made up for it. We will definitely get pizza here again. Food was perfect!“

“Very friendly and attentive staff. Food was delicious.“

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings“

“I’ve been meaning to write this review! First, I want to say that the owners are very kind people, and I was absolutely impressed with their pizza! Best crust ever! We ordered a couple of appetizers as well and they were also quite tasty! We will definitely be back and we highly recommend this establishment for pizza! Sooooo yummy!🥰 Staff knows their menu and makes great recommendations! Our server was wonderful.“

“We used Happy Joe’s for our employee lunch. The food was ready to go when ordered and tasted great. Thanks so much for the good food!“

“I haven’t been here in years. I looked online for family deals on Mondays, and I saw the family night on Monday night. So I checked the menu online, and found the Milan Happy Joes has a family special, for $25 and it comes with pizza and pop. Okay. So I call, and order ahead. I honestly think I could have clarified exactly what the special was, but in my defense, I thought I was ordering what the menu showed so it didn’t occur to me to verify. Plus, for years, it’s always been that. Hind sight is always 20/20.

When we arrived, she said drinks were not included, but what would we like. I’m stunned. She got our drinks. I was thinking about this, and my husband came back from the restroom and I let him know that actually the family special is evidently $27.99 and comes with breadsticks and cinnamon pizza. Drinks are not included. So my husband talked to a manager. To which the manager replied, well that’s a Google doc. Which. That is incorrect, Google was the search engine I used….. he also said well that’s Google and not happy joes. So I said okay, let me show you how I got here. So I went to happy joes, clicked deals, and it asked for participating locations. I clicked Illinois, then I clicked Milan. From there, I clicked menu. I screenshotted the menu, and the home page of my phone to show the date I was here, October 6, 2025. Technically I could sue happy joes for them not honoring their contract. However that’s silly and I’m not going to do that. BUT, the menu should reflect what they are selling, and it should reflect correctly.

So, once the manager realizes, that I wasn’t on a “Google docs” as he so put it, whatever that is……he told me he is not responsible for corporate and what they put on their menu. He also said that it’s a lot of food, and I can’t expect that price listed. (I didn’t realize what I was ordering, I thought the family special was JUST pizza and pop)

So. With all that said,

We had, a small pepperoni. A half nacho Joe, and half sausage. The special comes with a tiny cinnamon pizza, and a cheese bread with marinara sauce.

Not one single complaint with the food. Everything was hot, and fresh. I’ve actually never had the cheese bread, or the cinnamon bread, and I can see why they would be on the special, because they were soooo good and possibly the stars of the show. It SHOULD be reflected on the menu.

Would I come here again? I want to say yes, because it’s good, and nostalgic. I just have to pray about my attitude in regards to the conversation I had with the manager, because he made me feel as if I, was the problem.“

“I placed a takeout order this evening and the young women I believe her name was Lexie working did not only a phenomenal job with our food but had the brightest customer service. Nowadays you don’t run into great service like that too well but tonight I did! Her bosses should be very pleased and the food was great so that was an even bigger plus“

“Our favorite pizza! We got the Thanksgiving Special. Turkey, mashed potatoes & gravy, dressing, cranberry sauce, fried onions, mozzarella cheese. Huge and delicious. 😋“

“8/25/24 tonight i am giving them a 1 star. waited 2.5 hr for delivery. was told driver went wrong address. Asked driver and he said different story,my calzone was cold ,mushrooms were cold,wifes alfredo was kinda warm. Normally very happy with them but tonight not good. called twice about order kid on phone said order was out,well 40 mins later still no delivery. VERY UNHAPPY!!!!!!“

“We order Pjs often so obvi we are fans but the delivery driver we had tonight was AMAZING. He held our 3 boxes while I brought them in one by one, so I could hold my fussy baby in the other arm. He was super nice about it too. Thank you so much!!!!“

“Great pizza!!! Monday taco nights are also amazing! Great staff and great prices!“

“great pizza... I will not be eating Harris again..... their pizza has nothing on Poor Boys.. and has declined greatly over the years.. ... THANKS POOR BOYS!!!..“

“Great old fashioned food. Great service.“

“Shout out to Bad Boyz! I came in sons Late night hungry after working all day and the cook gave us an EXCELLENTly Fried 18 pc, 6 was inferno and it was hitting the right spice!

“Yesterday, Thanksgiving 2025, we experienced the Riverfront Grille for the first time. The staff were happy to see us, friendly and very attentive. Second, the food was outstanding. Turkey and ham were done to perfection, a variety of salads, soups and sides were homemade and delicious. Lastly, the overall experience (including desert) on a busy day was wonderful. Thank you Riverfront Grille…looking forward to our next visit…highly recommend them.“

“It's taken me much too long to get a review on here, but this is THE BEST Little Ceasars. I can always count on good, fast, friendly service, and its always fresh! The staff is great, and I can honestly say I've never been disappointed with this location..I wouldn't be leaving a review if I had!“

“We are in town for a soccer tournament and wanted a good pizza. Found this place on Google, and would be a regular if we lived here. Chicken bacon ranch pizza was literally the best pizza I’ve ever had- and I live in an Italian neighborhood! They have games to play while you wait. Fun and friendly. Excellent service!“

“So… I grew up on Happy Joe’s Pizza. As a kid I used to climb the stairs to the viewing window and watch the employees make the pies. Then I even worked for the company in my late teens and early twenties for 5 years. Loved that stuff. I eventually became one of the people that started early and made fresh dough every day. I never got tired of it! Fast forward to the 2010s-2020s and I became very disappointed with the quality of Happy Joe’s Pizza to the point that I wouldn’t buy it anymore. And yes it is expensive. The majority of the ingredients are the same as they were 30 years ago or more but the crust was like cardboard. Yuk! Every once in a while I think “what if they went back to freshly made dough every day? Then they could charge a lot because you know you are getting the quality again.” Well today I decided I was craving a Combo Pizza (formerly garden) from Happy Joe’s. I grabbed one on my way home at lunch. At the drive up window I asked the manager if they ever considered making dough from scratch again instead of frozen. She then told me something that blew my mind… they are making the dough from scratch again! Since restructuring things after recent world events (the disease that shall remain nameless) they started making dough daily again in Milan and it is shipped to Rock Island and a couple other stores. She said "it’s as close to the old recipe as they can get." On my drive home I scarfed down the pizza and was surprised to discover it was super good! I even ate the “pizza bones”! I looked down at the small pizza box… No survivors… So excited that Rock Island Happy Joe’s is back to kicking butt again! Next time: Taco Supreme…“

“Not sure what the name of the lady who was working tonight (2/18/23) but the last few times she made our pizza was absolutely delicious please keep her 😊😊“

“I absolutely love Papa John’s! When people ask me what my favorite pizza place is, I will always say Papa John’s. And this location specifically never disappoints. Delivery or pickup, I always get perfectly fresh food exactly how I ordered. I wasn’t able to leave a review on the app for my delivery driver and I also can’t find his name, but honestly every delivery I’ve had has been flawless. 10/10 would recommend <3“
