“I've placed 4 large catering orders from Rosatis in Lakemoor. My most recent being yesterday. They never disappoint. Everything is always ready on time and delicious. We got so many compliments on the food at our party. They helped me carry it to the car. Keep up the good work! Appreciate you guys!”

“5/26/26 - dinner with friends! I had the Alamo chicken sandwich. Per the menu - marinated, grilled chicken breast with cheddar cheese, Bacon on Texas Toast and Parmesan fries. It sounds really good! When I got it it was cut in half and I noticed that there was a slice of tomato 🍅 melted into the cheese on the chicken breast. But I hate tomatoes and it was a good thing that I am not allergic to them. Had it been on the menu I would have made sure that I didn't order it. Anyways also there was very little BBQ sauce and the chicken breast was dry and tough to chew. Also I ordered Parmesan fries 🍟 and they were just plain fries. Usually when I am out by myself I definitely would have sent it back. But since I was with friends I didn't want to make them wait any longer.”

“Hidden in plain sight in Lake Villa, this Italian restaurant is the kind of unassuming neighborhood gem critics quietly root for. It isn’t flashy, it isn’t loud, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything other than what it is: a place that consistently serves excellent food at fair prices. In the Lakes region—where Italian options can feel uneven—this spot rises confidently to the top. On my most recent visit, I was seated immediately at a corner table, a small but meaningful luxury in an age of hour-long waits. The dining room, typically hushed enough for actual conversation, again delivered one of its underrated pleasures: a peaceful meal without the intrusive din that plagues so many suburban restaurants. Service followed suit—friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to help, never hovering or rushing. The kitchen remains the star. My spaghetti with vodka sauce was outstanding—rich, balanced, and among the best renditions I’ve had anywhere in the region. Other entrées at the table echoed the same strengths: sauces with clarity and depth, pastas cooked with confident restraint, portions generous without tipping into excess. Cocktails, too, arrived promptly and properly mixed, further reinforcing the sense of a kitchen-and-bar team that takes pride in their craft. If there is a shortfall, it lies in the ambiance. The room carries a certain charm, but the décor feels a step behind the quality of the food. A refresh of tables, finishes, and overall presentation would elevate the experience from very good to genuinely special. The warmth is there—the aesthetics simply haven’t caught up yet. Even so, the value proposition is undeniable. For reliably excellent Italian cuisine, low noise, easy seating, earnest service, and honest pricing, this restaurant more than earns its “highly recommended” status. It is, in every meaningful way, Lake Villa’s little culinary treasure.”

“I'll just come right out and say it, I LOVE THIS PLACE! First, making a reservation is painless. The front end staff are courteous, polite and classy and am always met with a friendly greeting at the door. Alexis is an outstanding bartender and a gifted mixologist. Her limoncello martinis are exquisite. The wait staff are consummate professionals. I have had the genuine pleasure of being served by Virginia on numerous occasions and she is simply outstanding! And it's not just her level of service, but she's friendly and engaging and makes excellent food and drink recommendations. The girl knows what she's talking about - period. Her knowledge is impressive and she always makes it fun! The food is truly in a class by itself and compliments to the Chefs and kitchen staff. Fresh ingredients, incredible sauces and fabulous flavor combinations make this place a most memorable culinary experience. I highly recommend!!!”

“i recently had a disappointing experience at a restaurant that I felt compelled to share. I went there for dinner with my fiancée, mother, and our two young kids, ages 3 and 1. Initially, the dinner was fantastic; we were enjoying our time together and the food was great. However, after about an hour and 20 minutes, we were abruptly told we had to leave because of other reservations. This was incredibly frustrating, especially since I still had my drink left, and we had just paid our tab As we were leaving, we encountered a manager and inquired about the situation. To our shock, she responded by asking if we knew how to read English, which felt incredibly rude and unprofessional. I pulled up my reservation online and nowhere does it say there was a time limit. To make matters worse, as we walked through the bar to exit, she followed my mother and physically shoved her three times. This kind of behavior is completely unacceptable in any establishment, and it left a sour taste in what could have been a lovely evening. We called the cops to make a report as the manager "lucy" (she told me this was her name) should never be able to touch a customer. Especially since we were not refusing to leave AND my kids were there to witness it all. In the car my son kept asking why the lady pushed my mom . This shouldn't be something I need to answer as it never should have happened. She tried telling the cops she did not have the "intent" to hurt but to get us out . Yet we were not even refusing to leave...only letting her know it was rude as we still had stuff that was unfinished that we paid for. I understand that restaurants have to manage reservations, but there are respectful ways to handle these situations. Additionally, she left it up to the waiter to tell us we had to leave . I won't be returning, and I hope this feedback helps others make an informed decision. And please , if you were in the bar / restaurant when this all happened , speak up on how wrong it was of her to push someone like that.”

“10/14/26 - still going every week on Wednesday to take advantage of those half-price appetizers and cold beer! 8/26/26 - still trying to go in every Wednesday and take advantage of the half price appetizers. Now I've been getting the steak quesadilla and the fried calamari and a couple of beers! Still cold beers still good food and Jessi the bartender does a great job. 6/3/26 - Wednesdays is half price appetizers all day so I had steak, quesadillas and mozzarella sticks and a beer and watch the ball game while sitting at the bar. It was all appetizers not just a limited selection So there was a lot of items to choose from. I will definitely be back to take advantage of the special! They also opened daily from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. And serve breakfast 🥞. They also have outdoor seating.”

“I decided to go to LAGO for the first time last night, and I’m so grateful I did! From the moment we arrived, the valet was incredibly kind, and the ambience struck the perfect balance—upscale yet cozy and welcoming. I felt at home immediately, with that unmistakable “city” energy that makes a night out feel special. Our server, Lexi, was absolutely wonderful—beautiful, vibrant, and genuinely attentive. She went above and beyond to make my birthday feel truly special, and we all adored her. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and every detail reflected how much care and expertise go into this restaurant. I’ve been missing a place like this, and I can’t wait to come back. LAGO is something special.”

“I ran into the Giordano’s off Lake St and Michigan Ave tonight just to get quarters for parking (unfortunately we had already eaten somewhere else). I gotta say that the staff was SO NICE and so kind about it that next time I’m over that way I will be eating there just because of the interactions I had tonight with a few staff members. As a non-customer tonight they didn’t have to help me out but they did and did it happily and were all super friendly. Even the manager (who was absolutely adorable) helped out by getting out a roll of quarters so that I had enough for the parking machine/box. Thank you all for the help tonight. I really did appreciate it!”

“Nancy’s pizza is the best pizza I ever had. We recently brought 2 deep dish pizza out to CA with us. My son says they have nothing out in Ca that comes close to Nancy’s pizza so I thought we’d bring them out a treat! Bill was wonderful and gave us valuable info about packing the pizza to remain deep frozen for our 7hr trip. My son & daughter in-law was so wonderful excited, & following Bill’s reheating method the pizzas tasted like a freshly made pizza! No other pizza comes close to Nanny’s! I absolutely love their pizza, thin crust, stuffed pizza there the best!!”

“5++?We were in the area conducting some personal business, and we decided to grab a bite to take home. My wife wanted a salad, and I was thinking about pizza, and getting our oldest son a Italian beef sandwich. I accomplished all three at Rosati's!It's a really small location, with a small rail bar with a few stools to sit at. Just enough to eat your food and be on your way if you're not getting to go. All of the ingredients for our meal were fresh and crisp. The pizza was extremely good, I had no issue with it. I'm going to also post this on my list of pizza joints. My son enjoyed his beef sandwich, and my wife thought it was one of the biggest, tastiest and attractive salads she's had. The staff was kind, and they brought our order out to our vehicle when it was done. I have to give them kudos, and the place was nice and clean from everything I could see. And the prices were very reasonable compared to some other establishments. I highly recommend Gabito?!? Dietary restrictions: Ask Kid-friendliness: Not really that type of facility, more of a grab and go. Wheelchair accessibility: More of a grab and go, not really a sit-down location.”

“Today, we visited Antioch Pizza Shop – Fox Lake, IL, and what an amazing experience! 🍕 The location was great, and the food was absolutely awesome. We ordered a custom pizza, and the manager was incredibly nice and patient. He took the time to understand all of our custom pizza details and made sure everything was just right. When the pizza came out, it looked so tempting that we couldn’t wait to dig in! 😋 We completely forgot to take a full picture before enjoying it, but we managed to capture a few pictures for reference. I would highly recommend everyone to visit this place once—and I’m sure you’ll want to go back again! 🍕❤”

Una Pizza Napoletana, a popular spot in New York, has just been named the best pizza in the world by the 2024 Italian 50 Top Pizza ranking. This is a major victory for owner Anthony Mangieri, who has already earned the title of best pizza in the U.S. for three years in a row.
Naples-born Rosso Pomodoro has landed in Denver. The Italian pizza franchise just opened its first U.S. location in the city's Central Park neighborhood at 29th Ave Town Center. "It has long been a dream to introduce our brand of authentic Neapolitan-style pizza to every corner of America,” CEO Nicola Saraceno shared his excitement.
Totonno's Pizzeria Napolitana, a 100-year-old Coney Island eatery, is looking for a buyer or partner to keep its legacy alive, but it has one important condition. Totonno's has made it through fires, floods, and even COVID, but there's one thing they'll never tolerate: pineapple on their pizza.
