“Walked out of this place, hit with scent of drugs being used as I opened the door. No need to spend my money at an establishment who has no regard to regulations.“

“My husband and I had lunch today for the first time. The atmosphere was very nice and our waiter Louis was exceptional. The food was delicious. We were also told that to reserve space there that holds up to 80 is $200. I thought that is very reasonable. I highly recommend Olivia’s for a wonderful dining experience“

“this place is the best and the owner, Rosalie is the sweetest! my favorite pizzeria hands down.“

“I love eating at the Buona Restaurant in the Kenosha area. But, when I met Erin(the general manager). I just adore her. She is such a great person and always went out of her way to make sure that everyone have a great service and being such a positive influence on her co-workers and speaking very highly of them and valued them.
Ms. Erin, I just want to thank you for making Buona a special place to eat and I love the way that you greet everyone with an heartfelt smile and a sincere appreciation from us as your customers!
Keep up the amazing work Ms. Erin you are a very special lady!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“This is our family's favorite restaurant for birthdays, anniversaries, dinners with large groups...At this point we've been here probably 10 times and never once have we had a bad experience. Every server goes above and beyond to ensure that you have a WOW experience. The food and drinks are amazing every time. Last night we decided to try somewhere new since we just ate at Primo the previous weekend. The prices were the same yet the service and food did not compare. From now on we'll stick with here, where we know we'll have an amazing experience.“

“I just have to make a statement that wrote a bad review and her name is Stephanie oberg she is not my blood but related to me through my cousin. It’s so embarrassing that you always have someone in the family that you just can’t make happy and she made a bad statement that Bread was not on the table. They were in the wrong section and rolled eyes at them And the service was bad. Do you know the funny thing is we had my and this was for a funeral for my grandmother a few months before this we had her 98th birthday, which was wonderful caleb even saying happy birthday in Italian to her. They were absolutely amazing and because a lot of my family members, including my grandfather were presidents female and males and been going there since I was young with my grandfather, and I have one of the biggest families in Kenosha, so for someone that is married to my cousin to post this bad review, it’s really hurtful, but I guess you have those kinds of people in the world that can never be happy but let me tell you this when she said to move to another section and they rolled her eyes. That was me because she was in a section that she wasn’t supposed to belong to because all the bread was nice and hot with the oil waiting over there. She open the door and went into a section. She shouldn’t be that’s why there was the door was closed so I helped with so much also because our cousin Crystal blood Cousin was waiting on us. She was wonderful and because I am comfortable with the Italian American because I’ve been there for 50 years through my family I wanted to help I bought freshwater all the time with her. There was hot bread three at every table Crystal was and Caleb and I for my grandmother and family helping the food was excellent as always and she’s gone now, but one thing I can say because that comment that she posted just really hurt me. My grandmother told me she loved the Italian American and my aunt and uncles always had great. You just get so much food that you can bring home and Nancy is an amazing cook. Nancy even came out from the kitchen to say hello to all of us while she was so busy I was even helping giving fresh water and you complain about bread that wasn’t on the table and someone rolled their eyes and you’re lying because it was me your cousin that told you you’re in the wrong section I’m helping you out, dear. Why were you over there? You had no business being there. I was trying to help my family. We’re grieving getting in the right spot on the table fresh out of the oven and I never rolled my eyes. You’re my cousin, but I’m very ashamed of you but I guess you always have that one in the family that is just never happy but I definitely know this is probably going to cause problems in my family, but I’m sticking up for the Italian American and the hard workers that work there so I’m going against my cousin because she’s lying. I love you Italian American Nancy works with you on prices even if you don’t have that much money and you want something nice she truly works with you. They have such great food. Caleb is so wonderful. He’s a wonderful bartender and even his voice he sings. He came in saying three times one in Italian Ave Maria and other songs because I asked him to to my grandmother and she cried on her birthday Crystal hard worker, but the bus boys they came constantly and got stuff off the tables I even helped and I didn’t need to I just wanted to because I love the Italian American so I’m sorry this is so long but I definitely had to say something. I’m very upset because I’m embarrassed that was my cousin. She’s not blood, but that is my cousin and I’m gonna stick up for our great Italian American society.🇮🇹❤️🙏🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹“

“So my husband and I visited other Olive Gardens. One in gurnee which I loved the waitress, one in racine which I was not happy with the service and our first time today in kenosha. Our waitress Cassie was so wonderful. She asked the right questions, the salad plates were cold for the salad, the food was nice and hot. But what I liked the most was when Cassie asked if we liked anything else before she brought our food out. So this will be our place from now on. Thank you Cassie for your service. I give you a 10 as a waitress“

“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.“

“Great Italian food, comfortable atmosphere“

“You know when you bite into something and it tastes so good you have to dance a little with your eyes closed. As awkward as that is to do in public, I couldn’t help myself. The flavors of everything were so fresh, unique, and perfectly paired. The prices are very fair for the size and quality of the food you get, the service is super friendly and personable. My husband and I can’t wait to go back and try the other pizzas on the menu. Would def recommend.“

“Louie's is the best place to eat in Waukegan. Great Italian food, thin crust pizza, fried chicken and fish. Everything is great. They give you the best bread hot from the oven when you sit down. Huge bar. Family friendly. You can't go wrong at this place.“

“Great place, Awesome food and Milo loved it too.“

“Amazing I came after hours. They answered the phone. And served me. Just great genuine people. 11/10 !!“

“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!“

“I have been going there for 60 years and it is still the very best. You order it with double sausage and what ever else you like on it and don't forget to order it well done. Everyone I take there said it is one of the best pizzas they ever had.“
