“I owe the Jullianni's family an apology. I've been ordering here since 2009 when I moved to Palos and the food is always great. I always get delivery and the food is always hot, on time, and delicious. On top of that, their prices are extremely resonable, especially in today's economy. I should gave given this place a 5 star review 15 years ago. Restaurants like this are rare these days. The Palos community is very fortunate to have a local place like Jullianni's“

“Frankie's since 1988 is hands-down, the best restaurant in the southwest Chicago suburbs. My son and I went for my birthday and there was no place I would rather go. The decor is trendy yet elegant and I really enjoyed the music that was playing. Service was quick and friendly. The signature Frankie's old-fashioned was amazing! Although the lasagna is my absolute favorite, I like to try the chef specials whenever possible, especially the seasonal ones. We had the pumpkin lasagna and the butternut squash risotto with crumbled Italian sausage.... Both were amazing! Whether it's your 20th time back or your first time here, the staff and the owner will make you feel like Family. This is truly a gem in the south suburbs. If you're reading this review to see if you want to go to Frankie‘s, don't hesitate... Just make the reservation...You won't be disappointed.“

“5 stars for HECTOR in Western Springs!!! Hands down this was the absolute best dining experience I’ve ever had! While the food was delicious and the overall ambiance and decor of the restaurant was cozy, it was our server that made this dining experience over the top, great! HECTOR, you are a gem, a diamond! You have an absolutely charming personality and made my mother in law’s birthday dinner an experience to remember! From your spot on suggestions, to your lovely rendition of “Happy Birthday”, to the funny banter, our whole family left talking about how wonderful you were! We will be back and we will be sure to come when you are serving! Thank you Hector!!!“

“Finally got to try an Italian beef sandwich, and it didn't disappoint.
Huge sandwich at a decent price. I barely had time to put my credit card back in my wallet that my order was ready 🤪.
The beef is juicy and delicious. I also liked the hot peppers. I had mine with extra american cheese but it didn't really add much, the beef speaks for itself.“

“EXCELLENT FOOD! Great service“

“Chicago Midway airport. Stopped for a beer and a quick bite to eat. They were friendly and fast and even put my order in a to go container per my request in case I had to leave quickly or couldn't eat it all. I had a 16oz Moody Tongue Here's to Harry IPA, perfectly chilled and delicious 😋. I also had the Blue Cheese Holy Cow Chips. They were good, but too much Blue Cheese for my taste. I only ate about half and then had to board. I took the rest with me, but didn't end up eating them. Jorge provided great customer service. Reasonably priced. The beer was a little pricy, but expected.“

“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.“

“Hosted a small dinner with family after a baptism and had a great time! The food was absolutely delicious, service was excellent, and the ambiance was very nice. We were seated in a semi-private area by the fireplace and had a dedicated cake and gift table supplied. The nearby bar was a nice feature too as it was Bears Sunday. Our menu consisted of minestrone soup, hot fresh bread, tossed salad, fried chicken, mostacolli bolognese, sausage and peppers, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, and ice cream. The deal was unbeatable! Definitely will be coming again and possibly even catering bigger parties from there in the future. Thanks for a great party! All the guests very much enjoyed as well!“

Joey please keep up the work and if y'all haven't already gave him a raised now is the time! Also, the last couple times I have had a delivery, a young African American guy comes, I don't know his name but he also has great customer service. If y'all know who I am talking about please give him a raise too.“

“First time Visiting and had an amazing experience. The customer service was fantastic. The waiters were extremely nice and helpful. I did not have to ask for my water to be re filled. Everything was absolutely delicious and the prices are great 😊 5 out of 5 stars ✨“

“The food was amazing and our server John was hands down best we have ever had. Large portion sizes so plenty to take home. It was very loud in there due to larger parties. Unfortunately our table was directly across from the bathrooms which was gross and added to the traffic near table. Perhaps no table should be in that location. BUT food and service was great and would recommend!“

“Best thin crust pizza. Fast pick up or delivery. Great chopped salad👍🏻“
