“It was our first visit and we were so happy we came. I had read good reviews so we stopped in for cocktails and appetizers.The owners are friendly and welcoming, just what you want in a neighborhood spot! Everything we ordered was excellent. We will be back!“
“Happen to find this little gem while waiting for a tow truck for my boyfriend‘s truck today. I was thinking Subway, but then I found this. I am so glad that I walked in there, and that she talked me into the focaccia Capri style. The foot-long is massive the sandwiches, and the meats are phenomenal and the service could not have been better, I don’t care if I live 40 minutes from here I’m coming back !!“
“Hands down one of the best restaurants I've been to. A beautiful place with a great vibe. They have a bar in the main dining area which is great if you're looking to hangout after dinner. The staff was absolutely wonderful. Everyone was so friendly and fun! Every dish we had was SPECTACULAR!!!. We ordered about 8 dishes and every single one was delicous. You can tell they use high quality products/ingredients. Lastly, the price we paid for this 10 STAR experience was too low in my opinion. I would easily pay triple the amount for this place. We'll be going back very soon. Maybe this weekend! ;) 10 STARS for Bar Salotto!!!“
“Came in again to try out their pizza special. I got the 2 slices and a drink last time, and it was too much for me. Just got a slice of sausage, and my usual soda can. Place is usually nice and clean. Everyone is friendly and acknowledges you when you walk in. It was cooked nicely and great crust. It wasn't too hard or soft, but just the right amount of crunch. The best part is that it's not really greasy like others. Big plus in my book. I definitely would come back if I'm in the area. Perks of working out in the field and trying new places.“
“Wow, what delicious tavern style, cracker crust pizza! Haven't eaten pizza that good since I lived on the northwest side of Chicago. The restaurant is a throw back in time. The boothes are very small...when people were smaller, I guess. I was even impressed by the busser. He was running around non stop and did a great job. The place gives off a very good vibe and worth a visit.“
“(Northbrook Location) Extremely easy to place my order. The employee (Tony) I believe.. Who had taken my order 1/17/2024, was polite and detailed throughout the order process.. And when I arrived he continued to be Very Professional, Helpful & Welcoming to a new customer, “which he did not know I was”. This was our second time ordering, and were completely satisfied and everything came as ordered.. First time was a younger woman who took the order and she was friendly and easy to deal with as well.. I don’t recall her name (Sorry) or date I ordered. But it was about a week prior to my second order. Also shout out to the cooks and other employees who made this meal happen. A++ All Around.. so we thank you all. Including management who hired some great employees… We will definitely be ordering much more often.. Thanks Again to the Authority!! 5 Stars All Around..Steve @ Hawthorne Global“
“I grew up going to this place almost every day! Spent my allowance on soda and candy there! Now that I’ve grown up and moved away, I still make the hour drive every now and then for their awesome comfort food! The Paterson family is just like our own family❤️ I recommend Louie’s to everyone ❤️“
“Happy 3 year Anniversary!!!! This place fought thru Covid closures and first year opening! 2 strikes for a new business and yet SO BLESSED they made it!!! I LOVE THIS PLACE! This place is a hidden spot in the plaza la rosita. In Palatine. I’ve been here a few times before making a review cuz I really wanted to give an honest opinion! First off cleanliness is awesome! Place looks well cared for and clean. 2nd Customer Service ❤️ THIS is the first reason why I came back! They are great people and always a joy to see their smiles and warm greetings. Now to the food. I cannot express enough how phenomenal the wings and pizza are!!! the wings and garlic habanero sauce was fire! If you wanna get some amazing wings your taste buds definitely deserve to have wings from here! It amazes me that not that many people know of this place and well don’t snooze on this place!! Your missing out if you do!!! The pizza is better than I’ve tasted ANYWHERE in this area and we’ve been trying to find a spot since we moved nearby. So grateful I was told about this place and decided to try. They also have a seating area with TVs. If you’d like to meet up with friends or just have family dinner THIS is the place. Date night??? Enjoy the variety of foods. Lunch break??? Check it out for a slice to go. You won’t regret it! Trust me .“
“I can't understand the negative reviews. I brought my three girls here for lunch and we had an amazing lunch! We last dined here about a year ago. The service was incredibly fast, the fried calamari was delicious, and the pizza was amazing. My picky eater asked for four more meatballs after devouring the first three that came on her spaghetti. I decided to try the soup/sandwich combo. It was so difficult to choose a sandwich because they ALL sounded amazing. I was very pleased with the Italian sandwich with the asparagus soup. I wish I would have brought a quart of the soup home for my husband to enjoy. The ingredients are fresh and everything tastes wonderful. I am already looking forward to our next visit!!“
“Fantastic and Thankful Today was finally our first opportunity to visit and order take out. Fantastic isn’t a strong enough word to compliant how great the pizza and panzarotti were( wasn’t quite a full pie by the time I got home had to have a slice) The quality and taste took right back to my Brooklyn neighborhood. You know it’s great from just looking and smelling, to the perfect undercarriage crisp crust. Thankful, they are 5 minutes from our home, so welcomed to the neighborhood and we finally have the pizza we’ve been searching for. Lastly I had an opportunity to speak with the family before our food was ready and you just know they make you feel at home and like family. My only suggestion is to the neighborhood that you should run not walk and have a fantastic experience like we did! Cheers to many years of success, find good and best eats!“
“On line doesn't allow for 1/2 cheese only side plain ingredient pizza orders.Try calling to leave a message before store opens about on line pizza order, can't be done.Can't change delivery time on line, just stuck on 11AM, need at noon..frustration.“
“My husband and I have a hard time finding pizza that we both like; we finally found a winner with Penguino's! The pizza and is amazing and I admit I am addicted to the buffalo chicken pizza. The owners is always there with a smile and funny story or joke to share.“
“I stopped in for lunch and had a carne asada Burrito. It had fresh ingredients and was good. This was my second visit to the place. The service was good. Order at the counter, take a seat and then your food is prepared and brought out to you.“
“Best tavern pizza I've had in 2 years! As a native Rhode Islander, I am very particular about pizza and knowing the Quonset name has a lot of responsibility associated with it ? My wife and I have decided this will be our new pizza spot going forward.“
“Thin crust was comparable to other popular franchise pizza places but for a fraction of the price. One topping sausage was amazing; their sausage is better than most that I’ve tried! Friendly staff on the phone and pick up, pizza was ready on time and steaming hot. This is a great local business to support!“
“Wanted to thank you for delicious pizza and calzone and excellent service. I made a schedule for 7 pm but we got home earlier and I asked to reschedule the delivery for earlier, everything was done as requested. We received our order 30 minutes earlier and everything was delicious. Definitely recommending, friendly staff, fast delivery and very delicious food.“

“Hands down the best pizza I've had in my life! This pizza deserves all the hype and attention it receives. The flavor of the sausage and the buttery crunch of the crust is a combo that I feel can't be duplicated. I went with my wife, sister in law and niece. Everyone had the same review, AWESOME! The wings were pretty good as well, I'll say 8 out of 10. Our waitress was super friendly and sweet. The atmosphere was like a classic pizzeria from back in the day, and it was pretty nostalgic. My review is that if you're ever in Chicago, go check them out. You won't be disappointed.“
“My work team and I went to Union Ale House to take part in their Wednesday night trivia competition. We had a fun time. There is something on the menu for everyone and lots of drink choices too. The food was tasty. Service was good, which for a group of our size was impressive. The only two criticisms I had were that the bathroom could use improvement and the parking lot needs help. Not enough spaces to park and I parked by a very scary looking ditch. We'd definitely go back again.“
“We picked up our first pizza from Pizza Pavia tonight. The phone staff was friendly and efficient. We arrived early and had a beer at the bar. We only hope that they put in draft beers soon rather than only bottled beers. It looked like they had a nice selection of wine and seltzers too. The bar staff was friendly and helpful. We took our pizza home and ate it. It was absolutely delicious! It reminded us of little Italian in Buffalo Grove that closed years ago. Thin and crispy with just the right amount of sauce and cheese. We will definitely order from Pizza Pavia again and again.“
“Excellent pizza! The sauce is not sweet but savory with proper seasoning. Their thin crust is so good that if I move away, I would drive hours to come back regularly. The service is friendly and helpful, and they even store my order info, so I can call up and order "the usual". Thank you for your excellence Pizza Italia!“
“Nino’s….. I love you guys! I just had the minestrone with tortellini soup, grilled chicken breast sandwich & meatballs delivered…..wonderful comfort food after a stressful work week!! The soup, my favorite, was fresh & hot, & just what I needed! AND the delivery driver in the red Ford pickup truck was awesome & read my crazy apartment delivery instructions & did it right! Whoever you are, you get ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!! Btw, their thin crust pizza is awesome & their cheese is the best!“
“We love JJ Twigs. The pizza is always hot and fresh and they have really good sauce & cheese. The beef sandwich with cheese on garlic bread is hands down the best around. We typically get delivery and the drivers are professional and polite. The one time we ate there the service was good, the server was hustling to keep everyone happy and fun to talk to. A low key atmosphere and ok to bring the kids!“
“My nephew is friends with the owner and loves their food and wanted me to try it and I have to say I was very impressed. The chicken Parmesan was top-notch and the garlic rolls with the garlic inside delicious and prices that you can’t beat!“
“Colleen is super friendly. Thus is a nice bar with extra seating. Thete is one pool table! Dart board. Video gaming with 6 popular gaming. The food is unbelievable very good. Eat at the bar! Highly recommended.Parking: Best parking a lot of room.“
“I am writing this review from a personal and professional standpoint, as I have hosted a few work events at 28-Mile over the past year, and recently had my son's Bar Mitzvah party there. As a former event planner, and someone who plans numerous events for my job, I can honestly say that I have never encountered a more professional and accommodating staff. From the ownership, to the management, to the bar & waitstaff, and I have to mention the woman who tirelessly maintains the cleanliness of the venue, each and every one of them go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly for your event. Both of the recent events I hosted had elaborate set-ups, and the entire staff (even the owner!) helped make sure the space looked the best it possibly could.From my initial meetings with Mike the manager, to the walk thru/layout details of the space, and menu discussions, Mike gave me his undivided attention and great suggestions as to what would work best. He promptly answered any questions I had, and leading up to my events he could not have been more responsive, flexible and accommodating. This is not a venue that just wants your money, they truly care about their customers and strive to make sure that from start to finish everything goes well. From the laborious set-up to breakdown for both of my events they could not have been more helpful!We also got so many compliments on the food from our guests, their pizza is definitely some of the best on the North Shore! The bar staff is amazing and so efficient. Not only do they make awesome cocktails (their butterscotch bourbon was a crowd favorite), you also feel their genuine commitment to making sure that the event is a success. No matter what my request was of the management, or the bar or waitstaff, they made it happen with a smile on their faces. If a scenario is possible, they will do whatever they can to make your vision come to life.If you are considering having an event at 28-Mile do not hesitate, I promise you will not be disappointed. I am already thinking about other events I can plan there, especially when the weather gets warm so I can utilize their roof & patio. I could not possibly be more grateful to everyone at 28-Mile for helping to make my son's Bar Mitzvah party a night we will never forget!!!“
“This bar has the look of a no frills sports bar but the food is definitely top notch. Everyone in my party had really good food but the best thing we had was the Chicken Skewers. I normally would have taken a pic of the food but when it came out, I honestly wasn't thrilled because it looked like they were going for a deconstructed look and it wasn't what I was expecting. The saving grace was that it was large portions for an appetizer. BUT.... The food was seasoned and cooked to perfection. I normally do not eat chicken breast but what I was served was very juicy and flavorful. I was half way through my plate when I realized I should have taken a pic. Everything else I had was good but those skewers is what will bring me back for sure. I'll add photos next time!“
“I love this place, and I've been going for over 10 years now. The manager might seem rough around the edges from time to time, but he's an extremely kind person. He just has a lot on his plate running a pizza place that's near and dear to so many people in and around the area. Thank you, Naps, for all you've done. I had an opportunity to see the back kitchen because I was doing an inspection on the building & I was impressed by how clean it was, and the products I was seeing them use looked authentic.“
“One of my all time favorite oldschool family owned places ,same recipe since day 1 in 1966! The very best thin crust in the Northwest Suburbs for sure ! Their homemade meatballs are amazing , add some to Manicotti or try Meatball Mushroom pizza for major “
“Michelle is usually my sever (the 2 times I’ve come has been during the lunch special hr) She’s great. The Cesar salad is well done, as is the pizza. Sausage is my jam, my friend had cheese and my son had pepperoni. Great service and great pricing for a solid meal.Parking: Parking CAN be great or CAN be a pain…downtown Libertyville depends on time of visit for parking accessibility.Kid-friendliness: It’s an open space, and allows for kids to be around freelyWheelchair accessibility: The front door and vestibule are wide enough for classic or electric wheelchairs and the tables allow for great accessibility.“

“Food has been fantastic. 3rd time there for after work eating, relaxing. Service is great. Tasty foods! Everyone is so nice. Glad we we're told of this gem ! Molly (I call her super Molly..lol) is a GEM !! Great attitude, smile, friendly, attentive. She is fabulous to say the least. Not many places have such nice employees as Anastasia's does. Molly goes beyond expectations ! I'm sure others do also but Molly takes the cake for us. Great going Anastasia's !! Oh...get your shirts too folks. (Brian).“
“My family and a couple of my sons hockey team members needed a quick food spot by the local Northbrook rink. Couple doors down from Pure Hockey too, bonus. Food was fantastic, lots of different options and had TVs to watch sports. Quick and easy. Menu was huge from Pizza, sandwiches/subs, salads, pasta and desserts. Staff was nice too. Would highly recommend.“
“Been coming here for 15+yrs and it never disappoints. Great food and a great value in a world where everyone is jacking up their price to absurd levels. Have had catering done for a large party, have had delivery, and stopped in for food many times and it’s always been consistent and good food. This place hasn’t changed a bit for as long as I can remember and I mean that in the best possible way!“
“I’m not big on reviews, but these guys absolutely deserve one. I would post a picture of the food but I ate it too fast before writing this. Their tortas are not on the list to review, but they’re low-key a “hidden gem” here. By hidden I mean they’re on the back page of the menu but if you choose to get them, you will not be disappointed. They’re loaded to the brim, packed with flavor, and the bread is crispy and everything you want out of your torta filling holder. I’ll be trying their pizza next, as the single slices were top tier. They seem like super genuine people who care about their customers and I can’t recommend stopping by for a bite enough.“
“Always the best, fast good food and the staff rocks it!!!Vegetarian options: A switch or two and it’s vegan or vegetarian and they totally don’t mind theyCare more to make you happy’!!!Dietary restrictions: Vegans at the shop and the pasta is perfect salads as well!!!“
“It's easy to drive past this place. I wouldn't pass it up, though. Good deals every day of the week allow for great meals. For not so much money. Save your money for your drinks and cheers to the good service. Felt welcomed and well taken care of.“
“This place is the best local ‘place’.. literally a place for anyone and everyone. Been there twice and hospitality I received from the bartender/host was kind and warm. I am still exploring the menu ?, but love the ‘hot toddy’. You feel warm and fuzzy after one but 2 just makes me smile. Finally found my go-to ?“
“A nice Sunday afternoon day at Long Grove This is a very cute place with cute decor gas mini fire places sports TV . The waitress Dawn was very nice and patient while we made our decisions The food was excellent I Talia. adding soup with oyster crackers . Stuffed mushrooms the best. They have a great full menu The pizza looks good too . Italian choices are many . Will come again I've been going to Long Grove since 1969 Hope it picks up Oh yes Gender free restroom“
“We decided to try out Tre Amici for our daughter’s birthday party catering. We could not be more pleased with their catering package and the price was so reasonable to feed a large group. The sausage and beef combo, pasta, salad, and pizza package we put together was excellent. All the food was well prepared and our guests were complimenting everything the whole party. We would definitely use them again for our future catering needs.“

“Garibaldi's is not my go to pizza place, but there are times when I get a hankering for their Pizza and it hit's the spot every time. The product is very consistent, the slices are huge. I remember when it was in Town and Country Mall back in the day and they had a guy tossing dough, it was pretty cool. I kinda miss that old mall. Anyway, yes, I recommend this place.“
“This past December marked the very 1st time trying a Slyce location. I'm aware of the Wauconda location which has been around for a few years now but just never got around to trying.Was actually quite impressed with the quality of food here. Most "fast-fired" pizza venues I've been to typically are good but this place definitely screams high-end compared to the likes of Blaze, MOD, Pie Five, etc.The pizza is really good here and the prices seem reasonable despite the rise in cost dating back to the spring of 2020. Dining room is kept squeaky clean and the service reigns supreme.If ever in the mood for pizza when in the area which is easily at least one day every other weekend I'm in Vernon Hills, I know where to go.“
“It's been a while since we've been here. Where have all the large pizza's gone?Is it just me or have they shrunk too?Granted we ordered all thin crusts (the pan style takes a bit longer) Our three kids get antsy waiting lol2 large (3 toppings), 1 medium (one topping), 1 personal size specialty (to go)1 lemonade, 1 rootbeer, 1 milk, everyone else water. Bill was $100. Every crumb of pizza was devoured, nothing to take home except the personal pizza to go.Parking: Smallish parking lot considering the size of the restaurantKid-friendliness: It's a wide open two level restaurant. The top level has a train track“
“Really tasty. Got a pan crust sausage, onion and giardiniera. Cooked to perfection. Wife kept stealing my crust because it was so good (she got the chopped salad. It was huge and delicious). We came in with a bunch of rowdy 10yr old boys after a soccer game and pretty much took the place over. They were very patient and accommodating. The kids really enjoyed their thin crust cheese, too! We will definitely be back.“
“I've been ordering from this place for over 15 years and have yet to be disappointed with the food. Only constant issue, which really isn't that big of a deal since I would take my food home to eat, but every time I ordered potato skins the sour cream is always left out. So if your ordering to take to a park or outside, not eat at home, don't forget to check for the sour cream. ?“
“Not much to any of these restaurants but the food was great the manager explained the pizza and size cause we were about to buy way to much what he suggested was perfect stopped on the trip back home and bought take and bake for family in MN first time with this type deep dish not what I was looking for wanted traditional fresh style but was pleasantly happy Even though it's a chain.“
“Great family restaurant Come as you are - no judgment. Eat as much or as little as you want - the place has counter service which means you order at the front and pick up the food when they call your number Everyone there is so friendly and the food is absolutely delicious. All of the staff work hard to make sure everything is right! So many choices ranging from burgers to spaghetti to fish and chips to pizza and so much more People bring their children and their grandparents here. Everyone is welcome! Been coming here forever. Hope they stay here forever!“
“Only do delivery. Always timely. Always fresh. Excellent! So glad they have their marinara available for purchase to enjoy at home.Vegetarian options: Good selection and gluten free crust availableDietary restrictions: Gluten free vegetarian“
“great pizza and friendly staff. the pizza slices they have ready to go are great and price isnt bad either. If you're looking for deep dish, their deep dish is still my favorite deep dish pizza so far (yes, i prefer it over Giordanos, Lou Malnati's, etc). Definitely recommend!“
“It's a small restaurant with big food! You will want to go early because they don't reservations. Wine list could use an update. They were out of a particular Italian red wine on the list, and the white wines need an overhaul. Otherwise, everything was excellent.“
“Alrighty than... I have been ordering my deep dish from Lou's for over 22 yrs. If you love it you stick to it correct? Thought I would try Rosati's for a change and ohh my... glad I did.Lots of toppings...fantastic tomatoes..perfectly done...taste was spot on...some of the best I have had. Knowing I have had over 400 in the last 20 yrs or so. I always thought they were a secondary pizza place for me & my friends. I WAS WRONG !LOVED IT AND WILL ORDER AGAIN SOON. NOUF SAID ...hold on one more thing it was GREAT DEEP DISH ! ! ! ( No I have not been drinking)“
“I eat at a lot of different places and travel all over and I’ve been to so many other Sbarro’s and this is by far the best one I’ve ever had like everything was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing!!! I was shocked because I typically only eat there cuz my my husband who loves there food but even he was super impressed with the better quality here!! Thanks for an amazing brunch!! Will be returning!!“
