“In 2017, I picked up my older brother at Midway to come home to the funeral of our youngest brother that committed suicide at 23 yers old. We swung over to Vito and Nick's to get a pizza and talk. It was our first time there. We ended up telling the waitress the situation because we had both been crying. Next thing we know, the kitchen had par-baked like 8 large pizzas of all types, and gave us a hand-written note giving us condolences and instructions on how to finish baking the pizzas. They said they wanted to make sure my family was well-fed in our time of tragedy ❤ And the pizza is INCREDIBLE ❤ SPECIAL, SPECIAL PLACE“

“I've been coming to Rosati’s Pizza in Matteson for over 6 years now, and they’ve never disappointed. The food is consistently delicious — from the perfectly crispy thick crust pizzas to the hearty pastas and sandwiches, everything is always fresh and flavorful. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the quality has remained solid over the years. Whether I’m picking up or getting delivery, I can always count on Rosati’s to hit the spot. Definitely one of my go-to places in the area!“

“The staff weren't that nice, the food didn't live up the the Barraco's name, but it wasn't a terrible experience. If the staff didn't hand us smudged glasses and forks with food stains, had been more like waiters who entertain guests rather than serve food, and a pizza that seemed not to be baked well and had a grainy crust, it would be five star dinning I experience. I had no real problem here, but it hadn't lived up the name.“

“Amazing service and taste! (Westlawn location)“

“So I placed a order for Chicken Carbondale but I didn't like it tasted to bacon anyway th servicer brought his boss over and he was so attentive and kind his name is Chris he went beyond kindness Im so grateful to know that there actually managers that care I feel this Manager deserves a A+ and more thk u so much for your kind justice definitely get nothing but Love and Praises from me“

“I had a catered event on October 2nd. The food was excellent!! Especially the Italian beef and Mac and cheese. Went to drop off stuff snd decided to have lunch since we were there. The Reuben was to die for!! As was the beef sandwich. We also loved the fries. Thank you Jim for making the food for our 30th anniversary party . I would highly recommend using them for all of your catering needs. And if you are in Thorton, pick up lunch. You won’t regret it.“

“We were the only ones in the place, so we were totally catered to. Of course it was at an off time on the Sunday of Labor Day weekend, which is why we were the only customers. We had a nice chat with the owner, and the food was absolutely delicious. We especially liked that much of it is homemade on site. So good!“

“Amazing food! Had the Buffalo chicken pizza and it was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend 💯“

“Growing up in the Chicago area, especially on the south side, you EXPECT local pizza joints to be good. Lots of places that don't primarily sell pizza still have better pizza that you get in other parts of the country.

Though it's been around for a long time, as have I, I'd never tried Rosangela's prior to this time, and I'm here to say that I am a believer.

I tried introducing a colleague of mine to chicago pizza at a couple other places, and they did not impress him... Rosangela's did.

Just a medium special and a drink, but I will tell you that it's some of the best tavern style things crust pizza you'll ever have.

It's as good as your favorite place, and likely better.

Try it.“

“I really enjoyed our meal at this location. We sat at the bar on 8/4 @ around 5:30. Our bartender/waiter was very courteous, professional and nice to talk to. And the food was excellent; the smaller potion size of lasagna was the perfect; I didn't need the larger size. Along with a salad, this meal was exactly what I was looking for at dinner-time.“

“As I walked in the cashier was too busy playing a game on her phone. She acted as if I was disturbing her. Anyway now to the pizza I ordered a small pizza with 4 toppings, extra cheese and sauce. It was 30 dollars a couple of the toppings was a double charge. They told me 40 minutes. I've never waited that long for a pizza but okay. It wasn't definitely no extra cheese and sauce. I must say it was delicious. Just a few things rubbed me the wrong way so I'm not sure if I will try it again“

“Great food and excellent service!“

“Top 5 Italian beef in the world. OG homemade giardenera. Love POPs. I live out of town and POPs is a must stop when I come to visit the South Side.“

“Delicious!! Thin Crust Lots of sausage .. i love the green olive too! The mostaccioli and giant size meatballs .. mmmmm and that red sauce .. it’s heavenly !!“

“The friendly environment of Matteson Location.. makes me nostalgic for their old location .. but Good people are still there.“

“buffet was 15 dollars no bread salad bar was bare min. not worth it! who doesn't put cheese on their salad?!? and no deserts!“

“Food is always excellent!“

“My experience, at Pop's Italian Beef Restaurant, has all ways been a pleasant one. The food there is very delicious and homemade fresh. We bought our your grand twins there, at the time they were 6yrs. old, a few years ago, and they still ask about coming back. The staff treated them so well and were so impressed with their young mannerisms, and said to us, to bring them back at anytime. Yesterday, was our first time back, since we'd brought them 2years ago, and still, it was a great experience.“

“This place is such a hidden gem! Catered from them for Xmas eve and had my birthday dinner there a week before. Actually also had my rehearsal dinner there almost 10 years ago lol! Can't say enough good things.. they let me put in a last minute order for Christmas Eve so I didn't have to cook a ton of pasta, and gave me extra vodka sauce!!! Love Louisa's will be back again and again :)“

“Second chance great experience Gals at the counter were friendly and extremely helpful pizza was tasty well baked NO SNEAKY CHICKEN 💩 POLICE FOLLOWING US AROUND THIS TIME! Not paranoid either just tellin it like it is if they don't like my comment they know where to find me!!!HA!HA! I'll be waiting!“

“First timers here! Let’s just say that was absolutely delicious! We ordered a deep dish with everything and the kitchen sink on it, bbq honey wings , salad, garlic cheese bread and cannolis - definitely a must come back to!

My only complaint as we did order it to go is I wish they had put utensils in the bag and an extra ranch dressing (seeing as the salad is pretty decent in size).“
