We ordered two medium pizzas and they cost $60. BOTH were stale and flavorless. We couldn’t even eat them. If they want to charge these ridiculously high prices, they should have fresh high quality ingredients. Will never order there again.

Food is good, just not one of the nicer places. Atmosphere not the best.

I haven’t been here in years. I looked online for family deals on Mondays, and I saw the family night on Monday night. So I checked the menu online, and found the Milan Happy Joes has a family special, for $25 and it comes with pizza and pop. Okay. So I call, and order ahead. I honestly think I could have clarified exactly what the special was, but in my defense, I thought I was ordering what the menu showed so it didn’t occur to me to verify. Plus, for years, it’s always been that. Hind sight is always 20/20.
When we arrived, she said drinks were not included, but what would we like. I’m stunned. She got our drinks. I was thinking about this, and my husband came back from the restroom and I let him know that actually the family special is evidently $27.99 and comes with breadsticks and cinnamon pizza. Drinks are not included. So my husband talked to a manager. To which the manager replied, well that’s a Google doc. Which. That is incorrect, Google was the search engine I used….. he also said well that’s Google and not happy joes. So I said okay, let me show you how I got here. So I went to happy joes, clicked deals, and it asked for participating locations. I clicked Illinois, then I clicked Milan. From there, I clicked menu. I screenshotted the menu, and the home page of my phone to show the date I was here, October 6, 2025. Technically I could sue happy joes for them not honoring their contract. However that’s silly and I’m not going to do that. BUT, the menu should reflect what they are selling, and it should reflect correctly.
So, once the manager realizes, that I wasn’t on a “Google docs” as he so put it, whatever that is……he told me he is not responsible for corporate and what they put on their menu. He also said that it’s a lot of food, and I can’t expect that price listed. (I didn’t realize what I was ordering, I thought the family special was JUST pizza and pop)
So. With all that said,
We had, a small pepperoni. A half nacho Joe, and half sausage. The special comes with a tiny cinnamon pizza, and a cheese bread with marinara sauce.
Not one single complaint with the food. Everything was hot, and fresh. I’ve actually never had the cheese bread, or the cinnamon bread, and I can see why they would be on the special, because they were soooo good and possibly the stars of the show. It SHOULD be reflected on the menu.
Would I come here again? I want to say yes, because it’s good, and nostalgic. I just have to pray about my attitude in regards to the conversation I had with the manager, because he made me feel as if I, was the problem.

We ate at Happy Joe's on a quiet Monday night after 8pm There were few customers but we didn't expect crowds at that hour on a Monday. We'd already driven to and left 2 other places before finding Happy Joe's and I'm glad we found it. We had friendly, efficient service with great food and great ice cream. The personal build-your-own pizza and the chicken bruschetta sandwich hit the spot after a long, busy day. The only negative for us was how hard it seemed to locate the correct driveway in the dark. Glad we found it!

We went on Friday for all you can eat fish fry. Fish was hot and fresh. Ate three filles The waitress was fabulous towards us. Well go again for the fish
We use to call this place happy blows when growing up.well it was a waste of 60 dollars .it still nasty. I guess the people who brags about there taco pizza and there wings must not know good food.

Very chill, great food, fast friendly staff. Pickup was easy fast and on time. This is a classic for the local area with good reason.

Review update: What a difference a few weeks makes. I ordered a pizza to go, they got the order wrong, and the pizza was cold. My bad for not inspecting my order before I left. Wow what a difference from the month before… The best Pizza I have ever had at this Happy Joe's in 35+ years!

The taco pizza was not what I remember. The lettuce was kind of old. I am from Oklahoma and we always look forward to Happy Joes when we are in town. Please return to the original Taco Pizza.

0/10 experience. Currently at Happy Joes- they are short staffed, kids are running around with water guns spraying eachother and still waiting. Parents please parent your kids. No signs of a manager
