Fun and friendly atmosphere, attentive staff, delicious food, and good vibes all around.They have now added Cup Pong every Friday night starting at 10 pm as well.Whether you are kicking back after a long week at work, need a cold drink and a bite to eat, or want to go out with the family or your special someone, Caliendos is the place to be.“

“Still a very quaint and cozy place to come to. Plenty of parking, there's also outdoor seating. The last couple of times I've come they're very short staffed ,so the wait is a little bit longer than normal, given the workforce this is not anything abnormal. Pricing has increased a little bit but this is also apart of the inflation. The host and server were very polite and gave some good recommendations. The place was very sanitary and plenty of room to pick a spot to see wherever you like. Trying the new stuffed sauce pizza, it is deceiving and very filling!“

“I had a great evening at Vai's. The party room was fantastic. The staff was great and the food was outstanding. All the guests were absolutely delighted with their food. I really could not have asked for anything better. That's why it's the best restaurant in the city IMO. Thanks! You guys rock!“

“Food was great as usual. We had a short wait even with a reservation, but not too long. The staff is so friendly, welcoming & efficient. We brought friends that had never been and they already want to go back. It can be a little crowded but definitely worth it.“

“First time dining here and it was awesome! We came in 30 min. before close on a Sunday and were graciously welcomed! Our server, Salvador was very attentive and eager to provide great service. The food was absolutely outstanding! Nonna’s meatballs were the best I have ever had. It was a portion of 3 huge meatballs and the meat was very soft and juicy. The Caesar salad was fantastic with REAL Caesar dressing complete with white anchovies and lots of cheese. We also had the rigatoni with vodka sauce, fresh mozzarella and sausage which was delicious! We can’t wait to go back!“

“Absolutely fantastic first time experience at D’Capos! I ordered the meatball sub and the owner gave me a free sample, of course it was excellent. The owner also took time to chat with me about the business and even gave me a free to go meal, eggplant parm. Couldn’t recommend this establishment more, incredible food and the owner is so kind and welcoming. 10/10!“

“Picked up 5 16’ family pizzas that were steaming hot and delicious! We got cheese, sausage, pepperoni, Canadian bacon + pineapple and an Italian beef+gardinera. They were all a hit! With 20 people there were hardly any leftovers. Well worth a try here if you’re looking for good things crust pizza.“

“This is the first time we've had Serinos. The subs are amazing. The bread soft and the meats sliced thin makes for a great sub. The cheese brick oven is our sons favorite. The potato and macaroni salads are so tasty. Desserts fantastic. We love Serinos and is now our favorite deli. Great staff. Keep up the perfect work! Almost forgot the chicken salad. The best chicken, not fatty or too thick. Perfect seasonings. Hard to find a great chicken salad like my own home made, but Serinos is great!“

“Everything about this restaurant is amazing. Beautiful set up, very nice atmosphere inside and wonderful decorations. Service was great, our server was on top of it, super friendly, very kind. The manager came by to check on every table. Sangria was delicious. Would definitely recommend the zucchini fries. They have a Monday special which is half price all pizzas which is amazing because their pizza is so delicious and wood oven baked. One of the best pizzas in the area. Parking is not convenient. There is construction on the street currently so no street parking available. Closest parking lot is a 3 min walk or next best thing is the parking garage on the opposite corner. Definitely recommend this restaurant for a celebration or just a nice date night.“

“I am so appreciative of the accommodations that were made for us. The gentleman in charge and the wait staff were extremely helpful and cordial. We have dined here in the past and I would definitely recommend them for their food, service and hospitality especially.“

“I moved here from Chicago recently and was looking for a new pizza spot. The menu offered a wide variety of pizzas and Lasagna pizza looked nice so I gave it a try. It was absolutely delicious!! Every component from the dough, to the sauce, to the toppings were excellent and worked perfectly together. I 100% found my new go-to pizza place and am craving another pie as I type this review.“

“It was a great experience! We haven’t ordered from Rosati’s in a long time and it hit the spot and the kids loved the breadsticks!! We’ll be back again soon! Thank you!Kid-friendliness: The Rosati’s Breadsticks were different than the normal style breadsticks and the kids liked that they were bite sized.“

“Home Run, got the 8 finger cavetelli with a couple meatballs on the side. Both were amazing, pasta cooked fresh tasted great, meat sauce was very meaty. The place was spotless, by far the cleanest restaurant I've gotten food from in a long time. You can tell the owner cares. I hope they continue making great food cause I'm gonna continue going here.“

“Celebrated my mother in-laws 90th birthday and could not be more pleased. We were a group of 30 for brunch and the food was wonderful. The buffet had a huge spread of good tasting food. We were also pleased with the staff. We had a waitress that did not miss a beat. So impressed. Well done Venuti’s.“

“I stopped after work for an Italian beef sandwich. It's one of my favorites. And they can get it ready in about 10 minutes while I wait.Fabulous pizza also! I love the extra thin crust they offer.The people there are always friendly, it's a great local restaurant.“

“Dinner was great. We've never had a bad meal. We usually try the specials, and they never disappoint. Service is great. Very friendly. One of my favorite dishes , although I have not seen it on the menu for a while, is the Rotollo. I hope to see it again. Thank you Made in Italy for your food and service! That's why we keep coming back ?“

“We absolutely love eating at and ordering from Brasi’s! The pastas are all so good, we rarely order pizza! My favorite is having their gnocchi with their amazing meat sauce. We’ve even catered our favorite dishes for a family party. I can’t recommend them enough! Plus, I feel like there’s always a coupon - so a very affordable night out!Kid-friendliness: We have young children who love the food and atmosphere just like we do! They are always welcomed and enjoy yummy ice cream at the end of our meals!“

“Had the beef with sweet. Best sweet peppers I've ever had on the beef! Beef itself was juicy, a good level of spice, and just about perfect!The inside of is just as described in other reviews, but I care about the product in a place like this!“

“I decided to get takeout from this place since it was across the street from P Martin Jewelers. It’s a small restaurant with a handful of tables to dine in. Service was mediocre because it did take a few mins for them to acknowledge that there were customers waiting to order. However, service was great after taking my order and making my food. I ordered chicken parmesan dinner and breaded mushrooms. The portion size was very generous for the price. Menu prices are very decent. Breaded mushrooms were fresh and juicy. Chicken parmesan dinner was delicious, the chicken was perfectly cooked and moist. Pasta was tender and sauce was flavorful. Overall a solid 4.5/5. I will return to dine in and try the crepes and gyros.“

“Friendly service, delicious food, clean and nice environment. Service was just a tad slow on bringing our check; but otherwise very friendly and attentive for filling water and clearing the table. I would definitely return and already recommended it to a friend.“

“Tried it today for the first time and my husband and I were very pleased. Our waiter Bon was great and very kind and attentive. We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner. The food was delicious and the burger was huge. We willBe returning again.“

“Went shopping at outlet mall. Came across this pizza place on google. It had good reviews. The food was fast and delicious. Had pepperoni pizza and garlic bread sticks. Perfect place to eat! Defiantly will be the place to go to after going to the mall. We will be back when we’re in town! Thank you for great service and friendly staff.“

“Love going here for their pepper and egg sandwiches on Fridays. Also tried their BLT and the one with mortadella and pesto. Love that I can add calabrian chili spread but need to be careful because that stuff is hot. And finally a sandwich shop that serves it on real bread and the right size. Never go hungry after eating here. Also the lemon cookies are on point. Need to try some of the hot sandwiches next.“

“I was very impressed by Fire and Wine. It has a casual vibe. Obviously a local favorite. Each dish was excellent in taste and presentation. Service was great! Both the hostess and server were happy to share recommendations of their favorite dishes. We had the black pepper shrimp appetizer and the pizza bread for the tasty sauce!! We enjoyed our salads and entrees. We were too full for dessert! As we left, I was impressed at how clean the restaurant was- even after serving such a large crowd. Nice place. Good culture. Recommend!“

“I'm 100 percent Sicilian who was raised on the south side of Chicago. After moving to the suburbs I could never find a pizza that could match good south side Chicago pizza until I had yours. Unfortunately I don't live near by so I only get it when I visit my friend who lives in Bartlett .“

“Loved it! I think we've found our new favorite pizza in the area.Wanted something close by during the recent snow storm to be delivered. The pictures on their website made it look enticing. It did not disappoint.We ordered thin crust cheese sausage and mushroom.It was delivered hot and fresh.Thick with cheese and abundant sausage.Great tasting sauce with fennel, which we love.Thanks!“

“Friday night is always pizza night in my house. My daughter loves coming to the "pizza store" with me to pick up our order...she's treated like a little celeb there and we love it. This past Friday was no different, so I wanted to give a shout out to the chef for making my little girl's night. We stopped in to pick up our order but forgot to ask for our free cheese. The store was bumpin' and while I didn't want to wait 15 more mins, I didn't want to be a burden on the kitchen. The chef saw I was with my daughter, and asked if the cheese was for her. When I told him it was, he simply nodded and went back into the kitchen. He came back out with my order, and 2 massive slices of cheese for my daughter. Not only is the food delicious, but service like that is why we go back. Thanks everyone!“

“This is our family favorite pizza place, prices are great, service is outstanding and food is AWESOME, please don't waste your time somewhere else, if you are a pizza/Italian food lover, Generoso is a MUST, thank you Generoso for your great service and AWESOME food :)“

“Our server and all the people that work there were awesome. CIindy was great. We were seated early, which was nice. They did not mention that it was a problem that one of our five wasn't able to show. I do say that the sound was very loud, and we were lucky enough to be seated away from the main seating area. Which was very congested. But we were not rushed. We were actually encouraged to take our time. It was a birthday for two of the people with us, which they brought out small treat at the end of the dinner. There was a surprise 20% off on house bottles of wine. Overall, it was a very good experience, but I would definitely ask for that hallway off the side to help lessen the congestion and the noise. We're looking forward to going in the summer and sitting outside on the roof, which is just fantastic.“

“Great customer service by Tiffany! I went to there with my family (after going to Coopers Hawks first and they could not accommodate us on short notice due to not having enough staffing) their lost. We went to Maggiano’s (Napervile) and she Tiffany accommodated us in such short notice and everything was great! We will definitely return again. Thank you!“

“I saw a Instagram video about this place so I had to check it out. I went 2 days in a row! Our waitress mary (who I had 2 times) was outstanding super attentive and sweet! The food was amazing! I got a arancini as an appetizer which was delish and the vodka sauce is the best I’ve ever had. Really cute place after you can go walk around the park.“

“My wife and I are gluten intolerant and Little Italian-West has great gluten free crusts and cook up the tastiest pizza in town! Both of our grown boys have always loved Little Italian and when they visit they always ask for their favorite Little Italian-West pizzas. Highly recommend!“

“Came to Lucia Rose for the Tuesday Martini special and to check out a newer Addison addition. I've passed by Lucia Rose a number of times and was happy I was finally able to dine here. The inside is beautifully designed with the bar and open kitchen being the focal points. There are also so many windows for great natural light and there appears to be a patio available for when the weather gets nicer. Who doesn't love a good weekday martini but for $8!? One cannot go wrong. There was a total of (6) options included in the special. I tried both the Pomegranate and Elderflower Empress. They were perfectly balanced and not overly spirit forward/strong which was nice. To start, we got the Grilled Calamari which came on a bed of arugula. The calamari had a really good char on it and came with a light sauce on top. For entrees, we split both the Arugula & Pistachio Pesto and Spicy Rigatoni. The Pesto pasta does have a strong arugula taste, the pistachios offered a nice crunch, and the noodles were cooked perfectly. I loved that this was a pasta where you leave not feeling overly heavy from what you just ate. The Spicy Rigatoni was a favorite. The spice level is mild, which I appreciated, but each noodle had a great amount of sauce with it; the flavor was delicious. Staff was excellent with refilling out waters, checking in on our table, wrapping up our leftovers, and asking if we needed anything more. This is the perfect spot for a date night to a girls night to a causal drink. It's hard to find city-like places in the suburbs but this certainly falls onto the list!“

“Small pocket of deliciousness brought to you by genuine Italian family with friends. The delicate taste of caprese with homemade bread was scrumptious. Fried & baked panzerotti:The bread was soft, the cheese was ooey gooey & the tomato sauce was fresh and earthly. None of that canned salty sauce. Definitely must try more when we visit again. Forgot to take picture of the shrimp & broccoli linguine but also light & flavorful. You must try“

“My family were in last night celebrating my father’s life in his passing. We have been dining regularly since the 1970s at the Orland location. This was my father’s favorite pizza by far. Always a sausage, green pepper, mushroom & onion-IN THAT ORDER ONLY! Marnee took excellent care of us & the pizza was exactly the same as I remember it at Orland! Keep up the great work! Cheers!“

“Was part of a group of six that dined here. The food was excellent. Loved the antipasto salad blew me away. The salmon was excellent as well. The bussers were on top of everything. Loved the Billy Joel music playing and all the NY, especially Yankees items, decorations. I will definitely be back.“

“Excellent dinner, atmosphere, and service. We ordered stuffed mushrooms, they were hot and delicious. We were given a bowl of two types of bread which were warm and addictive. We also ordered chicken pesto with angel hair pasta. The order was huge and was delicious. The chicken was tender, next time we order this we can split it with two people. We ordered the white fish special again delicious. And finally our third order was pasta with a spicy arrabiata sauce. This was excellent. The pasta is made fresh every day. It's cooked perfectly. The service was exceptional. We were seated by the fireplace on a cold rainy night. Perfect atmosphere. I really was pleasantly surprised at the entire evening. We ordered an almond cake for dessert and it was just ok. The server had a great personality and was always making sure we were happy with our meal. I will definitely come back again.“

“Love to visit cozy mom-and-pop places where the owner visits with you. Homemade ravioli is delish and thank you for not oversalting the Pollo Marsala! Very tender. Enjoyed the chicken soup on a rainy evening as well. Enjoyable dinner for two.“

“I found Bari Foods through the group Chicago Style Italian Beef on Facebook. This food purveyor got the highest reviews based on taste, value and ease of delivery. I ordered the $135 Bulk Pack which included 4...three pound packages of Italian Beef and 4...half gallon containers of their Au Jus/Gravy. Plus free delivery to Los Angeles. I couldn't be happier as others have stated great taste, exceptional value and a shipment that arrived intact and on time. I highly recommend them“

“Delicious food made with quality, fresh ingredients. The caramelized pear and onion pizza with the beat salad was delicious! I got the lunch special which was reasonably priced. The atmosphere/vibe is nice, too. If I could give 4.5 stars to food and service I would. I would definitely recommend to others and come back myself.“

“I've always been a fan of deep-dish pizza, having grown up in the Midwest, but now having lived in the south for decades. Life has brought me back to the Midwest, and to the mecca of deep-dish pizza, Chicagoland. So of course in the first few days of moving into the Geneva, IL area, I had to find pizza. Deep-dish pizza. Piled high with meat and cheese, weighing a pound per slice, forced to eat it with a fork. They do call it a "pie" after all, and I've never tried to "fold" or eat any other pie with my fingers...so why should a "pizza pie" be any different??? Yelp sent me to Charlie Fox's as a close-by option, and it didn't disappoint. Ordering over the phone I told the employee I wanted "deep-dish" and he said, "You know we do 'pan' pizza. Is that going to be okay?" After confirming it would still be an inch think, I doubled-up on both the meat and cheese. I was told 30 minutes. I arrived just a couple of minutes early, so the wait was minimal. These things can't be rushed, after all. In the meantime I looked around the small, unassuming shop. Just a couple of tables, but the two guys working behind the counter were friendly and helpful. I was told to make sure to hold on to the coupons that came with my pie, and when I told the man working the counter that I had just moved into the area and it was my first time there, he made sure my order was right. Even another customer, watching them cut and box my order said, "Wow...that looks good." I wasn't disappointed. Hot, with gooey delicious mozzarella clinging to every slice, the dough cooked just perfectly chewy, my partner and I gobbled down multiple slices. I'll definitely be going back. The service and food were both top notch, served out of a basic but clean shopfront! Five stars!!!“

“Dined in for the first time and I loved the homie warm atmosphere of the restaurant, Tony the owner, and our server Therese! The vodka pasta pea dish, Spaghetti and meatballs, and vanilla bean cheesecake was Great!!! Tony was very personal, down to earth, and friendly. Thank “

“Did a carryout of 2 calzones, ready on time, wow they were huge, well worth the price and very tasty! They were package very well too keep the calzones and sauce hot until we arrived home. Great food and they know how to package their carry out. I highly recommend Maciano's!!“

“Happened to be near Pizzeria Di Maria this evening & the wonderful aroma made my daughter & myself get a slice of pepperoni pizza for $4. It was a huge slice with a generous amount of pepperoni slices covering the entire slice. I wasn't going to have dinner until I saw & smelled the pizza. My daughter & I split the slice & it is as delicious as it looked. The man at the register who may have been the owner was friendly & came back with a hot & fresh slice of pizza within 5 minutes of ordering. Will have to come back again!“

“Their Take and Bake items are a must for quick evening meals. My go-to choices are any of the Lasagnas, Sausage & Peppers, as well as Meatballs. I am also a fan of the pizza dough, which I use for homemade calzones and their shredded parmesan. This is my favorite place for all fresh Italian foods. Zeppe's has been my answer to meet my catering needs as well; 3 years in a row. This is the perfect local market.“

“Jet’s pizza is hands down my favorite. Not sure what I like best: the ez-pz ordering on the app, the prompt & courteous delivery, or the overall perfect, delicious pizza. Their thin and crispy is just that - thin AND *crispy*! No moving these pizzas from the box to the heated pizza stone in the oven to crisp up the crust. It’s already perfect. And the Detroit-style 4- or 8-corner pizzas?! Take that to a potluck party and make new best friends. Keep it all to yourself and and enjoy every bite.“

“I flew in from FL for my brother 40th birthday. The waitress Mary was exceptional and extraordinary in every way. This is one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. My childhood friend had the cheese tortellini. It was the best dish I ever had in my whole life. My brother goes back for the baked clams as that is his all time favorite. They even sang happy birthday. It's a great feeling knowing that people still care. Thank you and God Bless!“

“I usually go to a pizza place on Irving Park Road in Roselle, but they were getting too pricy, and even charged a fee for using a credit card. I thought I’d give Capone’s a try, and I’m very glad I did!!I love a good sausage topping, and it can either make or break the rest of the pizza. The sausage Capone’s uses is tasty and not rubbery, as it can be with some other places.It was perfect.The sauce is has just the right amount of tanginess, and the crust is superb.The lady that answered the phone to take my order was very pleasant and patient (I had a few questions) and she even offered me free mozzarella sticks or a discount.There was no additional fee for using my credit card, and service was prompt (I picked up my pizza).The inside decor is warm, cheerful and quaint. Extremely cozy.I could definitely see eating there.I normally don’t write reviews, but my experience there was so pleasant, from the time I called to place the order, to taking the last bite of my final slice, that I felt compelled to.If they were open today (New Year’s Day) I would be ordering another pizza, since my son wasn’t home to enjoy it yesterday. : )5 stars*****“

“I'm from out of town. When I saw the Chicago Tribune wrote about this restaurant not once but twice I had to try it. Am I glad I did. I ordered the baked Spaghetti with meatballs. My co-worker ordered the 10" personal pizza with sausage. The prices feel like pre-inflation prices. Super reasonable, especially once you see the large portions. I could barely finish my delicious spaghetti. It included two perfectly toasted and buttered pieces of garlic bread. My partner loved the pizza and she specifically commented on the flavor of the pizza sauce being amazing. The atmosphere is old school Italian and quaint. The owner was beyond friendly and struck up a nice conversation. I'm in town until Friday and can't wait to go back. 6/5 starsVegetarian options: Pizza with no meat. Pasta with no meat.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pizza crust option.“

“Stumbled onto this venue via Google maps while wandering around Woodfield Mall and I'm sure glad I got the opportunity to try it.Not that Schaumburg is limited with restaurants, there's plenty around but I was looking for a specific pizza joint with high ratings & reviews that wasn't a popular chain that most ppl heard of and ended up here.Marino's boasts a great all-around menu with delicious food at still reasonable prices with a clean dining area and ultra friendly service.We live up in Beach Park in NE Lake County so time will tell when we'll be back if ever in the area again. Everyone enjoyed their food and that pizza was awesome!This venue is a gem and the residents of EGV are lucky to have this. Always try my best to support a local business and may the owner(s) have continued success & prosperity.“
