“Gia made my experience absolutely wonderful! She’s an absolute gem! Great atmosphere and best sub sandwich I’ve ever had!“

“I recently moved to the Plainfield area and decided to try Rosati's as I had received a coupon in the mail for them. I had an order delivered on a Saturday night for dinner. The food was excellent and it arrived earlier than the listed arrival time. I think I found my new favorite pizza place!“

“Need to edit review, I went back and had great service. The drive thru staff were polite and very professional. They must got rid of the bad one. 👍🏻(Been going for years, great food and usually great service. Last two times very rude drive thru personal.)“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our team had the absolute BEST experience at La Sorella di Francesca! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, the food was incredible, and the service was next-level. A huge shoutout to Donny Greco, who went above and beyond to make us feel right at home—like we were dining with family. It’s rare to find that kind of genuine hospitality and care these days. If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine with heartfelt service, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!“

“Always the best experience! We decided to try new dishes this time and they were all delicious!! Vai’s is our favorite restaurant and the service can’t be beat!“

“We always enjoy the food here. This family owned business uses fresh ingredients and it shows. You must give it a try. 😊“

“Andy is the best. He has great staff. The food is AMAZING!!! We go as often as possible!!!“

“Check see & please tell ?“

“It’s a nice place to eat. Unfortunately there was a party of 10 celebrating a birthday. They was very loud and obnoxious. Couldn’t really enjoy the atmosphere. Staff didn’t tell them to lower their voices. Maybe they need a special room away from the front so that other paying customers can enjoy their meals and conversations.“

“Food is fantastic with great portions. Get you some good food here.“

“First time there and everything was delicious 👌. Will definitely be going back soon.“

“Wonderful place to dine., food was delicious and our server, Fidel, was thee BEST ever! Will definitely return when I’m in Illinois again.“

“We’ve lived in the area for over 8 years and finally stopped here for dinner. The food was delicious - huge portions, the specials include soup and salad and the amazing service from Paulette was absolutely wonderful. I had the ribs - yummy and they fall off the bone. My husband had the chicken Alfredo. He loved it and the portion was huge! Great bang for the buck too. Beer and wine only but that’s all we needed.“

“I’d like to think that if I had a Nonna, she’d be welcoming and never fail to overfeed me. Her food would be hearty and flavorful and she’d never let me leave empty handed. Well, Mamma Onesta’s is as close as I’ll ever get to having a Nonna of my own. Mamma Onesta’s was cozy with the most hospitable staff. She’s situated on the cutest corner of downtown Lockport. Her food is outstanding and the portions are unbelievable. Give this little family business a try - you wont be disappointed!“

“Traverso’s Restaurant – A Naperville Heartbeat Whenever Bruce and I walk through the door at Traverso’s, it’s like coming home to family. From the moment you arrive, the energy is warm, welcoming, and unmistakably local—a true neighborhood institution. Owners and brothers Paul Traverso and Mike Traverso have poured their hearts into this place since 1993. Their presence is felt in every hand-shaken introduction and every sincere “How’s everything tonight?” from the staff. There's genuine pride and care in how the restaurant is run, and it shows. The layout is perfect. The lounge/bar area buzzes with friendly chatter over cocktails, while the dining room remains cozy and intimate. It’s a thoughtful division—great for those who want to unwind at the bar, yet still prefer a quiet dinner elsewhere. The recent remodel enhanced that charm without losing the heart of the place. Now, the food—oh, the food. The grilled lemon chicken wings are a revelation: crisp, juicy, tangy, and always our order number one. But it's the pizza that holds a special place in our hearts. Imagine cracker-thin crust so light it melts on your tongue, topped with savory sausage and pepperoni in perfect harmony with the sauce—every bite unforgettable. Service is consistently on point. Every visit means attentive smiles, knowing nods, thoughtful refills, and food that arrives just when you're expecting it. It’s that comforting reliability that makes you feel cared for, always. This place isn’t just a restaurant—it’s ours. Whether for a casual Tuesday night or a family celebration in their elegant dining or event room, Traverso’s delivers excellence wrapped in familiarity. To everyone in Naperville: if you haven’t experienced the exceptional hospitality and authentic Italian fare here, you’re missing out on something special.“

“I've eaten at Piccolo Buco a couple times now and I am very pleasantly surprised! I am only so so on the traditional Cooper's Hawk restaurants, I find their menu items very boring and unimaginative. Not to mention they never change! Piccolo Buco is none of that. Very unique and well thought out items that I cannot wait to further explore. Initial experience is five stars all day!“
