30 Best Italian Restaurants near Mchenry

“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!!!“

“Really nice experience from being greeted by the woman that greeted us outside to the welcoming gentlemen that assigned our seating. Our server Stephen was very efficient and available. Our food runner was as friendly as everyone. Plus as always a manager comes to the table.“

“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.“

“Great atmosphere and amazing food - including not only the pizza, but their pasta dishes and appetizers. It’s our go to restaurant when we want pizza/pasta, or to enjoy live entertainment.“

“The best! Everything is fresh and amazing. Staff and owner treat u like family. AMAZING!!!“

“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.“

“Great Place and the staff is always there for you“

“This place is a hidden gem in Fox Lake! The bruschetta?? Amazing! Pizza is excellent as are the sausage and meatballs… and vodka pasta is fantastic. I haven’t had much else on the menu yet…but what I HAVE had is surprisingly good! Give it a try!!“

“great atmosphere,quick and friendly.“

“I never leave a 5 star review, but this place deserves it all the way around!!! The food was phenomenal, service was fantastic, and atmosphere is adorable!!! Do yourself a favor and go, but make sure to make a reservation!!“

“My thin crust pizza was always my favorite from there until I just had a deep dish Chicago style you better hang onto the box with two hands. I always went to uncle Jerry’s for the thicker pizza until now. Gallo’s kicked it out of the park and they even cut your pizza for you.“

“We love picking up a quick lunch here, our go-to are the Chicago style dogs. Always a treat for a work lunch!“

“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!“

“Great service! Friendly. I am glad I chose to order from them.“

“the foid was good the bartenders friendly, on the spot and gave service with a smile! band was great! dance floor tight tho.“

“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!!“

“Our first time there and wow !Amazing food!Great service!The deep dish pizza, let me tell you how amazing that was!!Everything was just great!It's a far drive for us but we would definitely make that drive again to get that food!🙂“

“Great Food, Service, TV’s and drinks!!!“

“In my most humble opinion as a human being, this has been one of if not the most enjoyable experiences of my life. With a lively staff, great cheesy garlic breadsticks (bomb), and well decorated atmosphere it truly out shines the previous pizza shop that used to reside there. 5/5 stars“

“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.“

“DELISH!!!! The Chicago Classic is a MUST HAVE! And the service is great :-)“

“Heaven on pizza! Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy“

“The best pizza I have ever had for years! 5 out of 5 stars recommendation!!! Yummy and I cannot stop eating.❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰“

“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! 🍕❤“

“Pizza is consistently good! Love the deep dish! Really appreciate that you were open on Christmas! Thank you!“

“I absolutely love the lasagna here but tonight it is especially good!!! Very cheesy and I added cheese to the garlic bread for this cheese-a-holic!!“
