I will happily recommend Villaggio Ristorante to all my family and friends, knowing they will receive nothing but the best. Warm regards, Julie Loverdi“

“My husband and I owned a mobile Hot Dog Stand I ran it in Northwest Indiana. I sold Bari Beef Sandwiches. I was famous for my Beef sandwiches . I have and will always swear by Bari Beef!!!! We have moved all over the country the last 9 years and just moved to Bartlett Illinois. I just found out I live only 9.8 miles from Bari factory store …… I think I have died and gone to Heaven!!! On a side note. I had a deal for all new customers who questioned whether I had the best beef sandwiches. I told them “You buy my Beef sandwich and if you do t think it’s the best you have ever had I will give you your money back!” I have NEVER had to give anyone their money back!!! You are the best!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Always excellent food. I love the hot oven grinder sandwich and the pizza.“

“We decided to try out Tre Amici for our daughter’s birthday party catering. We could not be more pleased with their catering package and the price was so reasonable to feed a large group. The sausage and beef combo, pasta, salad, and pizza package we put together was excellent. All the food was well prepared and our guests were complimenting everything the whole party. We would definitely use them again for our future catering needs.“

“Highly recommended! This place is great!“

“Wow, I have to admit I was completely wrong about Olive Garden! When my sister suggested going, I laughed, thinking it would mean mediocre food, bad service, and unimpressive drinks. But this location totally proved me wrong. Our waitress was absolutely amazing—seriously one of the nicest people I’ve ever met (wish I remembered her name!). The food was delicious, and the drinks were fun and creative. Way to go, Olive Garden—you’ve changed my mind!“

“The Scallop Risotto was unbelievable!!! The wine (Chianti Raffino Tan Label perfect with the Scallops)!!! Service and atmosphere pleasant and friendly! The banana cream pie was disappointing.“

“Incredible food, amazing service“

“A wonderful evening at Rock N Ravioli. As with all of Ron Onesti's restaurants, the food was excellent. The menu for the evening offered great Italian food. Our group enjoyed the ravioli, peppers, Ron's famous meatballs with garlic bread and salad as well as the chicken parm with rigatoni, peppers, garlic bread and salad. When combined with the excellent service provided throughout the evening, I would highly recommend Rock N Ravioli“

“Fantastic food, awesome people and highly recommend if you enjoy delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere.“

“Food was good and because they forgot my shake homie hooked it up with a large, the review if you you my booii“

“Hard to go wrong at Olive Garden - I love their salad and breadsticks. Everyone loved their meal - I had a special steak tips and shrimp spicy dish - yes it was spicy but when I got home and later finished my leftovers cold it wasn’t as spicy. And mints after you pay.“

“We love going for the entertainment, including Adam behind the bar lol“

“Delicious pizza, loved the thin crust! Meatballs are so delish!! I will go back again and again! Highly recommended.“

“As a Chef critic i felt this place had a nice atmosphere and friendly service. I had the impression they were slightly understaffed and looks to be family run. The food was decent, however, the plating and some of the dishes were sloppy. A little pricey for the food that was served. I still gave a 4 star as the waitstaff was friendly and excellent.

Wheelchair accessibility: No“

“Our family’s favorite pizza in Barrington. Always great food!“

“I've ordered Lou Malnati's through the mail long distance for a couple years for my birthday without ever having been to an actual location. So my expectations were pretty high when we found out we had a trip to Chicago. We booked these reservations immediately. Honestly, the pizza was better when I could cook it in my own oven and make it a little more crispy with bubbly golden cheese and crust. It tasted a little bland like it needed salt and could've been cooked longer. Otherwise we had a great experience. I will try a different place next time we are in Chicago.“

“ROSIE DESERVES A RAISEEEE✨✨
I had such a great experience at Olive Garden today and it’s all thanks to Rosie. She was seriously on it, never had to call her over, she just knew what we needed before we even asked. Our breadsticks were always full (which honestly never happens), drinks topped off, and she was super friendly the whole time. You can tell she actually cares about her customers. Rosie really made the whole meal better. She definitely deserves a raise.“

“Solid italian food. I've only tried their pastas and they were very good. Good quality chicken and servings are plentiful. The only suggestion I would make to the restaurant is to better set up their online ordering systems and encourage customers to use them versus calling in orders. Also, allow take out ordering on holidays such as new years eve when you're open.“

“Love this place! We eat here frequently on Sundays!“

“Great pizza and salads. Delivered super fast.“

“delicious sandwiches and I wouldn't consider anybody else for my catering needs.“

“Really great food and they are very fast! Sat with a group of 8 and we were able to quickly enjoy our meal within 30 minutes. We had a time schedule, and it ended up working Perfectly.“

“I absolutely love Pizza Bella! Hands down my favorite pizza in all of Chicagoland! (yes, I said it and it's true) Overjoyed with Tony's new restaurant!!.... Great service, atmosphere, friday night was packed so come early! Evey inch of the menu is fantastic, and huge portions! True Italian love!“
