“I've been a customer of Mary's since she first opened, hobbling around on a leg scooter with an injured foot her first couple of weeks in business! She has developed Caffe Milan into an absolutely incredibly delicious, dependable deli & catering service! We've never been disappointed whether it's been for a yummy sandwich or a catered order for a family event or a fundraiser! 10 stars!“

“I come from an Italian family so love the food, but put Gatto’s up there as one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to!!! I had the chicken Milano and my partner had the carbonara and both were fabulous!! Great job on the meal, our waiter was amazing, he remembered all our drinks which were also delicious, and the whole night was a great one! Wish we didn’t live so far away or we would partake in your restaurant weekly!!!“

“If ever there was a place which resonates the Billy Joel song “Scenes from an Italian restaurant “ This place is IT! Visited for the first time on 2/14/26. The aroma as we entered was so inviting. Met the owners/ daughter and mom. So very sweet and funny too. Our server was Candy. She was working very hard on a busy Valentine’s Day. I had the lasagna and I can honestly say it was the best lasagna I’ve ever had in my life! The ricotta filling was so whipped and light. It was just delightful and so delicious. The bomba ice cream was scrumptious! Cannot wait to return to this gem of a restaurant!! 🇮🇹“

“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“

“Delicious food brought to us by our most wonderful server Monica.“

“Taste great! Go there every time we’re in Frankfort! Introduced my husband to a dry beef sandwich he loved it that way!“

“Their pizza is delicious. My family loves pizza. We have tried many is the surrounding area and nothing compares to Guardi's. It has become a staple for take out in my house. Their service is great (I have never arrived and had to wait for my order) and the employees have always been extremely friendly and sufficient. It's worth giving them a try.“

“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.“

“On 05/29/2026, I had dinner with some friends who recommended Palermo’s on 95th. I’ve always wanted to try it, and I’m glad I finally did—it did not disappoint.
The food was excellent, and the service matched it. Everything came out great, and the staff was attentive and welcoming throughout the visit. It was an all-around enjoyable experience, and I would definitely go back again.
The only minor downside was the parking, which can be a bit tight, but that’s not the restaurant’s fault.
Overall, a great spot with amazing food and service—highly recommend.“

“Yesterday, I went to celebrate with family and friends my birthday. I love this location since I moved to the suburbs. The service was great! Our server Silvia was very friendly and helpful.

“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.“

“Everything was delicious and the service was outstanding.“

“Italian cooking. …outdoor music as well.“

“The young man, Erik, who waited on me was so very polite. its a rarity ro find someone as polite and easy going as he was. based on his great attitude alone the place gets 5 stars.“

“Great food decent prices will definitely be back!!♥️“

“Good food. Excellent courteous and fast service.“

“I stopped by to get two slices of pizza. I think it’s really nice that the slices include two slices and they are of great size. My issue is that you stacked them on top of each other with a piece of paper in the middle and the bottom slice gets absorbed into the paper and trying to eat the bottom slice you end up having stuck paper all into the Cheese itself. My suggestion is to either use aluminum foil or a larger container where you can put them side-by-side because other than that, this would’ve been a five star experience.“

“Amazing staff, amazing food. 🤌“

“Fantastic food, service & staff as always. Always going above & beyond for ya“

“Today I came for lunch with my girlfriend that is visiting from Florida I didn't think that I would get good service because it was quite busy our server was very busy but very pleasant someone was helping him also I just spoke to the manager Articia she told me that the young mans that helped me was Shawn even though he was running around and very busy he still had the time to help in refill drinks also help refill with breadsticks and salad awesome service and our server was busy but he was fantastic I believe the manager said his name was Marcel thank you thank you Olive garden in Matteson you guys definitely did not disappoint“

“5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I used to get this pizza when I was growing up in Orland Park. It's still an amazing pizza and the (owner?) who I've interacted with a couple times recently has been incredibly inviting when you enter his business, super friendly. That's great but like I said, the pizza is outstanding! I love supporting the small guy. If you haven't given them a try, do it. You won't be disappointed! If I still lived in Orland Park this would be my go to every time! Plus I got to catch the Bears interception play on their TV today when I was grabbing my pizza. 🐻 ⬇️“

“We waited a long time to be served our food. After being seated 15 mins prior to everyone receiving their food and beverages before us we spoke to the manager MaryLynn and she resolved the issue expeditiously. She made sure that our experience was everything that it was supposed to be. I truly appreciate a manager that holds her staff accountable.“

“1st time being here and everything was A+! We came in and sat at the bar while our food was being freshly made. Awesome and Friendly staff! Enjoyed a little bit of the game on tv and had some cheese fries while we waited with our drinks. I definitely want to go back and try more on the menu! Brought the pizzas home to 4 teenagers and they devoured them in minutes. Lol Thanks so much for nice little “date” night while we waited. 🍕“

“Delicious food,one of my fav places to eat.Food is made fresh and they don’t take a long time to make it.Staff is friendly and always tries to accommodate.I wish they had an outdoor area to eat.That would take this location to the next level.Other than that,10/10 EVERY TIME.Also,check out Homeslice Pizza next door!
Side note:I typically place a To-go order.“

“I really have enjoyed your pizza. But the past few times ordered no so much. There is way tooooo much fennel seeds in the sausage. Actually over powering the sausage taste.“
