“Food, service and experience was perfection!“

“Solid food every time! Had great risotto last night, their pastas are always good & great cocktails. Take home family meals are delicious and a lot of food for the money. Recommend!“

“Excellent food, great service, knowledgeable waitress“

“I usually never write reviews but I wanted to come in here and give this restaurant its credit due. Food, atmosphere and staff were outstanding. Such friendly and respectful staff. I came in on Mother’s Day without reservation and was afraid I was going to get turned down but that was not the case, the hostesses accommodated my table and were able to squeeze me in such busy day! Would definitely come again and recommend this place.“

“We always enjoy visiting with Bill and enjoying their delicious dishes (especially those crazy good wood fire pizzas!) Amazing!“

“I’m really impressed with this place. Salads are perfect, New York style Pizza Pie“

“Pablo, our waiter, was exceptional. During our first visit here, he warmly welcomed us and showcased impressive knowledge of the menu, even extending to items not listed. He encouraged us to customize our meal to our liking, and he certainly delivered! For starters, we chose the grilled calamari and Rockefeller oysters. The calamari was tender and impeccably cooked, steering clear of the typical rubbery texture. Opting for balsamic instead of oil was a perfect choice. The oysters were superb, not overwhelmed with cheese. I ordered the veal picatta from the menu, expecting a thin slab, but was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion size. The angel hair pasta complemented the dish well, although I could have done without the mushrooms – a personal preference, which I should've mentioned. Nonetheless, if you're a mushroom enthusiast, they give you plenty. My boyfriend ordered off-menu, enjoying the Zuppe di Pesce with shrimp, clams, extra calamari, and rigatoni Diablo style in red sauce. It was absolutely amazing and satisfied his taste without being overly spicy. To accompany the meal, I had a glass of the house Chardonnay, which was light and buttery. Even my boyfriend, who doesn't typically drink wine, enjoyed it. Our heartfelt thanks to Pablo and the owner/chef Giovanni for an outstanding dining experience, both in terms of the meal and the service.“

“Great music and relaxing. Really nice“

“This buona is the best one out of all of them. Service is always a 10 and atmosphere is always a 10. Mark is so kind , and I have only had positive experiences. The last time I was in there I had ordered a salad completely forgetting to bring the cutlery with me to my table. Mark kindly came to ask me if everything was okay, and before i could mention it, he had already beat me to bringing me the cutlery for my meal. Its truly the small things. Not to mention his attitude in drive thru is always so positive. Makes my day that much brighter. Thanks to staff like him i keep coming back. Thank you so much Mark!“

“Staff were wonderful and the pizza is AMAZING. I especially loved the traditional crust. It’s a great neighborhood pizza and Italian place where everyone feels like family“

“Food was very tasteful. Service a bit slow.“

“Amazing pasta and fast delivery 💯☺️“

“Reordered. As I knew I would because they have great food. This time it was perfect as always (except that one time) . I know at times when your own delivery service isn’t delivering your food . It doesn’t get delivered as promised with the quality Lou Malnatis provides. I love love love the food and will continue to 🍻“

“Rosati's Pizza have excellent calzones. The crust is airy and crispy and the filling is fresh so is the cheese and sauce is to die for“

“Great food. Wait was reasonable as we went across the street for ice cream to pass time. Because it’s Chicago style pizza it takes a minute to cook, but the wait is more than worth it!“
