Horrible and over priced!
We always enjoy their food. It is authentic Italian cooking. They use fresh ingredients and they have big portions and it is very reasonably priced. “Ro” is always very friendly. Even when it’s busy, we always get great service.

Giuseppe's Pizza & Italian Restaurant is a local classic set off a main street in Rockford. This family-run restaurant offers delicious recipes passed on for over 45 years. The pizza is considered the best in Rockford for quality and taste, with nothing else close. Kids love the large pepperoni and black olive pizza, while the stuffed pizza with sausage, pepperoni & onions is a favorite. The hefty stuffed pizza is so monumentally good it makes that famous buttercrust place feel like a whimsical appetizer. The Eggplant parm was perfect. The buffalo wings were birthed by a volcanic pepper and gently swaddled by an angel. The sauce was perfect. The Garlic Bread and Jalapeno Poppers were fantastic. The Cannolis are a highlight—a crispy shell filled with creamy, sweet joy, made like it should be. One guest bought two more to go. The cannoli is a paradox and the best cannoli had. Service is fantastic, with helpful, professional staff and a prompt wait team. The location is very casual with plenty of parking and a small number of tables. Prices are very reasonable. As soon as you walk in and smell the air, you know this is a real pizza place, not a chain. It leaves a lasting impression and is well worth driving to.
