From the beginning, the professionalism of manager, Felicia, her kindness, and willingness to make this as easy as possible for us during such a difficult time is deeply appreciated. Everything was top-notch: the accommodations, the food, and the service. We can and will definitely recommend for anyone needing a venue in the future. Thank you so very much!“

“Great Lou Malnati’s location. The staff are all fantastic and extremely friendly to deal with. This is not a sit down restaurant and I normally order online and my orders are normally always ready by the time I pick. Never had any issues and highly recommend visiting this location for both the deep dish and thin crust pizza.“

“I used to have a bad history with this place a couple years ago where the service was terrible and took a long time. Today it was late at night almost a hour till closing, I ordered my pizza and wings, and everything was great. I was just getting out of work and running late so I called ahead and asked if they could wait 10 minutes for me and they were very nice about it. The employees are great and deserve a raise!“

“What an outstanding Restaurant! I had my daughter's bridal shower at Mio Modo and Michael, the Manager, took care of every detail that I was looking for. The food was excellent, from the appetizer-Calamari to the main meal-Pollo al Limone and Vodka Pasta, to the dessert Tiramisu!! So delicious!! The staff was very attentive and professional. We will definitely be visiting Mio Modo again. Thank you for a delightful experience!“

“Great meal white fish and Italian sausage the best ever , service also great“

“We had our rehearsal dinner here Oct 17. It was amazing. The food was allergy friendly. The drinks were great. Prices were reasonable. This is now in my top 3 favorite restaurants. Can’t wait to come back. Also the creme brulee was amazing. 🤤“

“Dined with Pietanza's several times and each time we're more impressed. Quickly becoming my favorite restaurant.“

“Incredible food, amazing service“

“Last night's dinner was truly wonderful. The amazing food and exceptional staff made our anniversary celebration unforgettable. Special thanks to Armando, Pete, and Brennan for their outstanding service. We will definitely be back.“

“We typically use the drive thru. We like your food, always fresh and tasty. Tonight I had the chicken avocado and strawberry salad. The salad was fresh, walnuts were sweet and crispy, dressing was very creamy. The only criticism I have is my chicken avocado and strawberry salad had no avocados. I do understand sometimes you can run out of ingredients or supply chain issues can interfere with menus. I would just ask to have this made known to us upon ordering or upon discovery, all in the interest of good customer service that you usually do deliver.“

“good pizza 🍕 try it out sometime“

“Leo was our Server and he did amazing, he was able to take care of us although we saw him handle a party of 24. Even though it was only two of us he treated us like we were the party. We appreciate servers like Leo. And shoutout to the manager Jon, nicest guy in the world. Came to check on us and chatted it up. It’s people like Jon that make the world a better place. And lastly shoutout to the back of the house. The food was amazing , my mother loves this place. Keep doing what you are doing.“

“Great pizza right here, used to love Little Caesar’s now I changed to Pizza Now because the pizza is way better“

“We just left, the food is the same, we always come for the salad and breadsticks, (I wish they would have an option to just get salad and breadsticks), the rest of the food is average, but our server Jackson was amazing. Management- if all of your servers are as friendly as Jackson was, you’d never have any complaints!“

“I got the cheddar cheese beef and Omg That was so delicious. I need to go back very soon to get another one.“

“Main dish was good. Salad dressing needed some oil as the consistency just dripped as if no oil was added. The dressing puddled on the bottom of the bowl and did not dress the salad. The iced tea tasted like it was made from concentrate. This may seem a little nit picking but at their price point I feel the critique is reasonable.“

“One of our favorite spots to dine. Always amazing and delicious.“

“We love going for the entertainment, including Adam behind the bar lol“

“This is a fun place to eat before going to a show. The staff is very nice and professional. There is a nice feeling in this restaurant. The food was slightly too high priced but good. I love Ron and want to support him in everything he does for us.“

“First time we have been there after they took the restaurant over. Great food and service. We for sure will be back. Might even get our supper club there.“

“Food was delicious! Our server was amazing - always made sure our drinks were full and checked in to make sure everything was going well. It is an old church so the atmosphere is beautiful and feels like you are in Italy!

Price and portion sizes are very good - will definitely be coming back!“

“amazing! the people are professional yet feels like homey. it's a family run restaurant, authentic Food. nothing more authentic than the owner himself cooking, his Son working the front and his Wife hosting! if you want a hidden gem. this is it!“

“We went to Woodfire for my birthday. The food and service is excellent. Vicki was our server and she was very friendly and attentive. The food is so fresh and homemade. The pizza crust is crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. There is an assortment of types of pizza, but the cheese pizza is the best I’ve ever had. The pasta is rich and delicious. It’s cooked perfectly and the vodka sauce is amazing. The appetizers, home brewed beer, and desserts are phenomenal too. Step aside Coopers Hawk, I have a new favorite restaurant!“

“Ate there last night. The food was incredible and the service was outstanding. I’m pretty picky about vodka pasta and this one was the best I’ve ever had. The restaurant has such a fun modern 1920s vibe. They also have a kids menu so it’s great for date night or a family outing.“

Enough for all to enjoy! And their daily specials are the best. Our server Kaitlyn was so thoughtful and made us feel so welcome. Don't miss out on this hidden gem of a restaurant!“

“NPT is the best pizza in the suburbs of Chicago! It is Neopolitan style pizza and they have pasta dishes as well. Their appetizers are excellent, their Tiramisu is top notch, and they have a good selection of wines and Italian sodas. Get over to NPT for authentic Neopolitan pizzas!“

“The 5 stars must be family and friends, I’m done pure garbage Chicago Style pizza!“

“Fast delivery and great service for the event I had at my house last weekend. The pizzas were great and everyone raved about it. Thank you!“

“Disappointing. Have given this place a few tries, but last night was the last. Ordered a sausage pizza and there literally was 1 piece of sausage per slice on majority of the slices of pizza. Some slices actually had no sausage. Plus it was dry. Lifted up the cheese and there was barely any sauce. And, end pieces had no cheese. Took a pick when it was mostly gone....we were hungry so ate in anyways. We were very disappointed. A bad night maybe ? They weren't busy at all, no one inside. Really wanted to love this place, but....“

“Pizza is very very awesome! Dinners are always on point as well! Reliable, consistent and tonight, probably the best we’ve ever had, so I felt like I had to say something positive for ya. Thanks so much for all y’all do, we feel lucky to have this establishment near us to order from. We look forward to our next order!!!“

“Great pizza, wish they had zeppole on the dessert menu, it’s the only Rosati’s location I can’t find them at which results me in ordering from the next restaurant. I attached what zeppole look from the other locations, they don’t even have the appetizer version with the marinara. Crazy because they’re big sellers at other locations and they run out.“

“Giordano’s is my childhood favorite. Recently catered 40 pizzas for my company and everyone loved it! It was a big hit! Thanks to everyone at the Saint Charles location! We will definitely be back.“
