“This place has great deep dish pizza!! We were up at O'Hare and wanted to get a good local pizza and we hit the jackpot pot! The marinara sauce was superb and the Italian sausage was so flavorful! The service was great! Very attentive and polite! This is a traditional "local hole in the wall" gem!! So glad we went! Highly recommend!!“
“Panino's Pizzeria was, frankly, a very pleasant surprise. We agreed to meet friends here - they had recommended it. It looked like so many run-of-the-mill pizza/Italian food joints in the Chicago area, that we weren't expecting much. Boy, were we wrong. This is NOT nouvelle cuisine Italian-style, but rather stereotypical, Italian-American food that is hearty and quite tasty. Gratis bread to start the meal, followed by pork meatballs in red sauce and burrata. My wife had the lasagna - very nice portion, and I had the pork chops with broccoli. The wait staff (Fred) was bend over backwards accommodating us. The fried dough with chocolate was amazing. The prices are moderate. And none of us had pizza! We're certain to return to try some (they serve several styles). Huge thumbs up!“
“Service was great and food was amazing. I don't often like/get blue cheese with my hot wings but this was the first time I got it and enjoyed it! Also, the grilled cheese and tomato soup will now be my go to ALL the time. First time in but I will DEFINITELY be going back.“
“So the restaurant is beautiful, I love it!. Our server, Alex, was just so very extra awesome. One of the best servers and a real people person, wonderful !!The grigliati misti, grilled squid and octopus appetizer, out of this world delicious! The special pizza, burrata, soppressata with honey, DELICIOSO! but secretly I wanted a bit more soppressata. The only thing that wasn't that awesome were the baked clams. No matter..won't get them again..and I will be going again.“
“Cute little Italian spot in Park Ridge I had an Italian beef with hot peppers it was delicious ? you seat there while you are smelling this pizzas being baked a bunch of old school folks that know how to make a good meal! I'll be back for sure ?“
“Super chill place to eat and the food was great!!! Had been cruising for a place to eat and happened to stumble on this gem! There is a sit-down bar, tables, and booths. The server was beyond chill and super helpful. Asked for suggestions, and he gave us great suggestions. We got the Cesar's salad, wings, pop corn chicken, and a 10' Chicago style pizza!!! The food was prepared perfectly. The salad was delish, the popcorn chicken was awesome, and the pizza was a homerun! My new spot when I come to Chi Town!!!! It's what a small restaurant is supposed to be!!!“
“I’ve been here several times and Mike’s is definitely a hidden gem in the Park Ridge/O’hare area. Generous portions, delicious food, and the gentleman behind the counter is always nice!Vegetarian options: Veggie Cesar wrap, cheese pizzaParking: Park on the side of the strip mall, there is currently plenty of parking“
“Five friends enjoyed an early dinner which we all totally enjoyed. The food is excellent, atmosphere is lovely and comfortable. The staff is attentive but not pushy. It was our first experience but all of us want to come back to try more menu options.“
“Good spot... walking in.. it's really busy with a small bar and many tables surrounding/ exposed brick walls. Nice wine list with some good Italian bottles. Good menu with half a dozen apps, homemade pasta dishes & entrees! They also had an excellent *Specials Menu* she said. Started with a couple of glasses of Barbera and some baked clams with the bread of course. Great wine & clams were on the smaller side with an excellent sauce! They are known for their homemade pasta and I decided to try the special. This was a Jalapeño Gnocchi in a Vodka Cream sauce with Corn, etc... it was excellent, cooked perfectly! For dessert we had the Molten Chocolate Cake which was also very good & great ice cream. Waitress was very good & prices are a bit above average but worth it/ you can taste the quality ingredients for sure! Close it out with some Limoncello Shots// talk later“
