“Easy to order over the phone.....very friendly voice !
Picked up my personal pan pizza.."Lou's" version with added sausage. OMG...DELICIOUS ...will return to this Grayslake location....easy to find. This was my first visit to this location.“

“This is a rustic woodsy atmosphere. Peanut shells are all over the floor. Probably not a great choice for those with peanut allergies. We order the wings they are meaty and flavorful without any sauce. We also had the Double Decker pizza. This is one of our favorites.“

“perfectly cooked steak- very creamy mac and cheese- sausage and peppers were perfection- service was top tier- Batman was was playing on the television behind the bar which was in perfect viewing from our table. Thanks for helping make a Daddy Daughter Day a huge success.“

“We live 2.5 hours south of Lake Villa, but we were meeting some friends from Florida for dinner. They were in the area for their grandson’s graduation from Great Lakes Naval Academy. Found this place via Google and it had great reviews, with good reason. We wish we lived closer because it would be a favorite for sure. Probably the best bruschetta and lasagna I’ve had in a very long time. Everyone loved their entrees. We tried multiple pasta dishes and the pizza. Prices were very reasonable and our service was exceptional. Excellent dining experience all around. Highly recommend.“

“Our first time to Primo was a special occasion as it was not only our anniversary but also our daughter was in town to visit and celebrate. Ryan V was our server and was fantastic - personable, knowledgeable and attentive! The menu is large, but don’t let that intimidate you! Ryan walked us through the app and entrees and we had everything from steak, to fish and pasta! ALL were delicious!! We will be back for sure, and highly recommend!“

“We love the food and dining at Oliveris’s but I have to tell you how wonderful the staff is. We have been having a pretty bad time lately. Our son had a stroke and may never walk again and my husband shattered his right hip. We had my husband’s birthday dinner at Oliveriis with some friends and my husband had a medical issue and Sal and the staff were so kind with helping me get him into the car. I do not think that any other Restaurant would have such amazing and helpful people working for them. Sal you are wonderful. Thank you again.“

“Y'all if you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, Zaza's Restaurant is an absolute hidden gem! 🍝 The portions are incredibly generous, and the flavors are out of this world. It's just a short 20-minute drive from our place, making it the perfect spot for a delicious meal. It's a local favorite, it’s only open on certain days, so plan accordingly! My boss is a huge fan of this place, and now I totally see why. Highly recommend! 🇮🇹 #HiddenGem #AuthenticItalian #ZazasRestaurant #FoodieFind Zaza's Steakhouse and Italian Eatery“

“I went to this place just today, the waiters were amazing, so kind and on top of stuff. The place is so big, and although they were busy, it was very sanitary. The food was amazing and had many options. The atmosphere overall was so great, everyone was so nice and it was decorated beautifully. Overall, I give this place a 10/10, definitely would recommend.“

“Everything we ordered was great tasting, to go orders arrived in a timely fashion, unlimited salad and breadsticks and very kid friendly.

Parking: Lots of parking spots

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly and welcoming family atmosphere“

“Nicko! Nicko did an amazing job! He was the only one waiting tables at a pretty busy time and did an amazing job taking care of everyone! Food was very good and came out quickly! The tiramisu was more or a tiramisu cake but was still delicious!“

“Our pizza arrived quickly and cooked perfectly. We love Maciano’s! They used the best ingredients-quality cheese, great crust and the Italian sausage is wonderful!!“

“Purchased a supreme pizza with Cheese, Sausage, Onions, Green Pepper and Mushrooms. The pizza tasted great, with one gotcha. The onions were a bit Chunky, making them still firm when biting. But everything else was great tasting.
Always a fan of this restaurant as its one of our go tonspots when ordering.“

“I’m so glad I found this place! great fresh food and good service. A great addition to the neighborhood.“

“best food ,pizza sauce is really good, if you want good take out food this place is the place 👌🙌.“

“We held a family funeral lunch at Lino’s. The staff was welcoming, attentive and very friendly as they took care of our party, which filled their banquet room. We had a couple of chicken dishes, a couple of vegetable dishes, a garden salad, potatoes, and cannoli for dessert. Our guests raved about the food, which was delicious and hot! We could not be more enthusiastic in our recommendation of Lino‘s!“

“Used to go here all the time the salad and bread are the best . Now they charge $1 per roll like what ???? Who charges for bread at an Italian restaurant. Also $11 for A SIDE SALAD ?? This place has really lost it , food quality has also drastically changed. Paid $20 for a side salad and a tiny bowl of soup . Would of gladly recommend this place years ago but 💯 should unfortunately just close their doors .“

“We were so happy to find that Little Joey's was still here after we moved away from the area for 14yrs! We started getting pizza from Little Joey's when they first opened - our son Joey was 5 or 6 at the time, so it was perfect! Now, their pizza quality has remained very good! We love their Chicago style deep dish, simple pepperoni or sausage, or even getting a spinach and garlic pizza is nice. Most of the time we get a Greek salad to go along with the pizza. Our favorite local pizza place! (We just miss the delivery van with the phone on top when they first opened ☹️)....“

“Always a great meal! The pizzas are amazing and so are the salads. A must for everyone.“

“Rosatis food and service are outstanding !!! The crew at Rosatis care about their customers so they always make sure the food they serve is something they can be proud of. If you haven't had the delicious food from Rosatis yet what are you waiting for you don't know what you're missing. My all time fav is their Monster Pizza?⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“My go-to place for thin-crust pizza in Libertyville. Consistently good... crispy crust, tasty sauce, perfect blend of cheese and just the right amount. Tried lots of others, and always end up going back to Rosati's. Don't be put off by the location in a mostly deserted and run down strip mall.“

“I grew up on antioch pizza. I moved away to west virginia. Well, every time I come into town, I have to stop and get a pizza, weather I eat it there or take it to go. It's now a tradition I keep up...love thier food. Love thier small town feel when I go inside. It brings nothing but hood feelings back to mind.“

“I had a look at some of these reviews and some are misplaced. I been to around 7 Sbarros in 3 countries and this one is up there with the best ones. I asked for a cheese and they made me a new one no fuss. I was also not asked to tip and I spoke English.“

“One of the best thin crust pizzas EVER! Always delicious! And when your ordering for delivery, they're usually (with an occasional exception when they're slammed) earlier than promised. As for ambiance -- what's better than your own home?! Get Delivery!“

“I am a tour director in Chicago. My company booked Giordanos on Belmont for 2 bus loads of high school students at 6pm. We unexpectedly got there at 5pm! Luis and his team were able to seat and serve us in short order. Thank you Luis and team. Giordanos pizza is the best!“

“I used to live in the Chicago area. I now live in Texas, and we can't get Lou Malnati's pizza. (So sad ?) We flew out of O'Hare after visiting my Dad in Wisconsin and stayed overnight in Vernon Hills. I was able to order pizza to bring in my carry-on back to Texas with me. It was just as good as I remember!
Dear Lou Malnati's, please open a location un Brownwood, TX. ♥️“

“The service is fantastic, we typically have a lot of lurker requests, like, pie cut, half this half that, well done, you name it. And always comes piping hot fresh and perfect. The delivery guys are the best. One of them brings biscuits for our dog and she loves him for it. Outstanding service excellent food, and perfect Friday night experience. Thank you Rosatis Grayslake!“

“I was one of your first customers in 1971 in Lincolnwood. I have been a customer for 54 years. Pizza is still great but prices are so high that I only bought when you offered $19.71. too expensive now. Also open Gurnee 7 days a week at 11:00 am“

“I absolutely love the lasagna here but tonight it is especially good!!! Very cheesy and I added cheese to the garlic bread for this cheese-a-holic!!“
