Simply the best food period. As so many in this area I've been coming to see Anthony and his family for 25 plus years. I'll say this, if anyone ranks rexs lower than 4.8 they shouldn't be allowed back because they're insane and a risk to society. 🙃
My #1 spot in the Chicagoland area for anything Italian food. My personal favorite is the eggplant parm sandwich.

The eggplant parmigiana dinner and sandwich were more than delicious. Highly recommend.
So I recommend EVERYTHING!!! My son loves the spinach lasagna and the pizza pockets... I myself am on a low carb diet right now... so I always go for the peppers and sausage, the meatballs, even the mozzarella sticks... Butttt this week I've been sticking to the cabbage roll soup... I grab a few quarts from the freezer and get a lb or 2 of the green bean salad... and this week alone I've lost 8 lbs. by replacing lunch and dinner with the soup and beans! it's an easy go to..it...read full review

Rex Italian Foods offers a wide selection of Italian subs, bocconcini, and Lezza Italian ice. Their chicken parmesan served on a bed of mostaccioli is a popular dish. The restaurant also features exceptional lasagna, with both meat and spinach options, made with a light sauce that lets the cheese shine. Customers praise the authentic home cooking, describing it as absolutely amazing, and often visit twice a week after discovering the place through social media videos.
The menu includes a variety of pasta, sweets, sandwiches, and imported pantry items that are hard to find elsewhere. The Italian sub with hot peppers and the meatball sub with cheese are highly recommended, with freshly cut cold cuts and toasted bread adding to the deliciousness. The restaurant makes their own meatballs and sauce in house, enhancing the quality of their sandwiches.
Customers describe the lasagna as superb, and the stuffed peppers as fantastic. The cookies near the register are also praised as being so good. The family-run Italian food place is known for its friendly and welcoming staff, and each meal is said to be as good as or better than home-cooked. The Italian sub and meatball sub are highly recommended, with customers expressing their satisfaction and plans to order them again.
