“It's now called copper bottom. If you read my other reviews you'll know that im a wing snob. The wings are fantastic. The fish tacos are great too. Awesome seating outside where the building protects you from the wind. Great bourbon selection, the drinks are awesome. The wait staff are friendly and funny. They're not afraid to help each other out to make sure you have a great experience.“

“Hidden in plain sight in Lake Villa, this Italian restaurant is the kind of unassuming neighborhood gem critics quietly root for. It isn’t flashy, it isn’t loud, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything other than what it is: a place that consistently serves excellent food at fair prices. In the Lakes region—where Italian options can feel uneven—this spot rises confidently to the top. On my most recent visit, I was seated immediately at a corner table, a small but meaningful luxury in an age of hour-long waits. The dining room, typically hushed enough for actual conversation, again delivered one of its underrated pleasures: a peaceful meal without the intrusive din that plagues so many suburban restaurants. Service followed suit—friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to help, never hovering or rushing. The kitchen remains the star. My spaghetti with vodka sauce was outstanding—rich, balanced, and among the best renditions I’ve had anywhere in the region. Other entrées at the table echoed the same strengths: sauces with clarity and depth, pastas cooked with confident restraint, portions generous without tipping into excess. Cocktails, too, arrived promptly and properly mixed, further reinforcing the sense of a kitchen-and-bar team that takes pride in their craft. If there is a shortfall, it lies in the ambiance. The room carries a certain charm, but the décor feels a step behind the quality of the food. A refresh of tables, finishes, and overall presentation would elevate the experience from very good to genuinely special. The warmth is there—the aesthetics simply haven’t caught up yet. Even so, the value proposition is undeniable. For reliably excellent Italian cuisine, low noise, easy seating, earnest service, and honest pricing, this restaurant more than earns its “highly recommended” status. It is, in every meaningful way, Lake Villa’s little culinary treasure.“

“Absolutely love this restaurant and family that owns it! Very welcoming and cozy!“

“Definitely worth the few extra minutes driving up here from Round Lake. I showed up on Thursday to find out they’ve got an all you can eat taco special 👀 I gotta roll myself out to my car after this. Don’t let the previous rough construction out front fool you, this place is gold. I had the steak and chorizo tacos that were superb. Mango margarita slapped 👏🏻“

“My husband and I have enjoyed our dinners here for 45 years. Similar menu and same receipes. We celebrated our wedding rehearsal dinner here. Our favorite restaurant for our anniversary and birthdays, the best restaurant for Friday fish fry in the state of Wisconsin!“

“Stopped here on a Saturday night on our way through to Illinois. It was very busy. They had St Patrick’s Day specials as well as their normal menu and regular Saturday specials. Everyone was nice and things appeared to run smoothly in a crazy busy atmosphere. Food came out promptly and was very good! If we ever find our way down here again I’d stop back and recommend to others as well. I don’t usually do reviews but was impressed enough that I felt I should. Thanks again!“

With such responsive service, it's not just the food that tastes better, but the whole dining experience 'tastes' better. The food I have ordered maintains consistent quality for the price. And ordering with any special requests has been rewarding. They have brought on some great delivery people too. Kudos, Rosati's, and thanks!“

“I ordered the Happy Family meal, it never disappoints! Always enough food for 3 meals~ for me😉“

“Two of the dishes were very good. The meatloaf entrée was disappointing.. service was good with taking orders, but I had brought two new guests that I had never been there so I had to ask the server to explain about the restaurant. Later we had to ask the soup and when we went to order, then we asked if there were specials which there were so it took us more time to figure out what we decided. Having to ask multiple questions instead of a proper greeting was a bummer. There was only one other table seated, our waitress would disappear for 15/20min.... Didn't check to see how our food was until it was finished.  I have been here multiple times and it was excellent. This was the first time of a disaster.“

“We had liver and onions with mashed potatoes and chicken fajitas today. Both were very good. The liver was some of the best we've ever had.“

“Just moved to the Antioch area and Anastasia's is The Place to Be. Best food. Most Sports TV's. Great service. Plenty of parking and convenient location. I've been to every good wing place in the tri- state area and they have the best wings and blue cheese I've had. Can't miss with Anastasia's in Antioch.“

“Service excellent morning menu great very tasty breakfast.“
