10. Napoli Per Tutti
Reviewed By Chris L
Visited restaurant on 12/19. This was my first time at this restaurant. Staff was very friendly and explained everything. We enjoyed two appetizers, the Burrata (which had very fresh and creamy mozzarella on a freshly baked crust) and the special for the night which was a pleasantly spicy shrimp and gnocchi dish. We also ordered two pizzas. The Margherita (San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte, basil, pecorino, olive oil) and the Rapini e Salsciccia (Rapini, Sausage, fior di latte, provola, pecorino, olive oil). I thoroughly enjoyed both of these.

The buffet was an amazing deal. Not your typical 'pizza' buffet but more of an Italian entree and salad bar buffet. For ten bucks you get unlimited eggplant paramesan, veal, shrimp scampi, one or two kinds of pizza, fish, breaded shrimp, and a few other items. There were some other things too but I just don't remember now. Everything tasted pretty good. For ten dollars it wasn't that bad. Would I go there every month? Probably not. Maybe one or twice a year. There was this amazing Italian buffet in Kanasas City I would go back to Kansas City just to go eat there for. Ok I'm kidding but that one is probably the best one I've had. ;)

Their thin-crust pizza is excellent. They have ingredients like artichoke hearts and giardiniera that many others don't. I've always wanted to try their deep-dish but I love their thin-crust too much to pass up. Besides pizza, they have lots of other Italian and American dishes. Great family place.

I started eating at Barnellis many years ago when they started to put them in the Chicago locations. Their pasta is always fresh and the sauces very flavorful. The service is always kind and the wait time is less than most fast food chains. They also have the BEST Strawberry dessert! I have heard the chocolate is always very good, but I love my strawberry shortcake! The salads also look amazing, but that may have to be next time!

In our travels, my wife and I have dined at Olive Garden locations from Lincolnwood to Orland Park to Oswego to Charleston to Sarasota to Peoria to Paducah. And we have never been disappointed. The restaurant chain that specializes in Italian-American cuisine, the one that offers a unique unlimited soup, salad and breadsticks appetizer, the one that displays photographs of all of its menu items on the internet, always satisfies its customers with quality food with abundant portions, friendly and attentive service and a comfortable atmosphere to enjoy it all. On our latest visit to an Olive Garden location, we had dinner at 1925 East Golf Road in northwest suburban Schaumburg, not far from the massive Woodfield Mall. Love the ambiance. Olive Garden offers an expansive menu with many options. You can even create your own pasta bowl by choosing one of six pastas, one of five home-made sauces and one of six toppings. But we prefer a standard order--minestrone, salad and breadsticks, herb-grilled salmon, spaghetti and meatballs, tiramisu and black tie mousse cake. Looking for something more non-traditional? Try the Tuscan sirloin or Chianti braised beef with ricotta gnocchi or braised beef and tortellini. At Olive Garden, you're sure to find something hot and delicious.

I enjoy Giordano's deep dish pizza for special occasions. It takes forty-five minutes to prepare but it's worth it. Their thin crust pizza is good too! I always get good service when dining in this location.

The on-site owner keeps this restaurant running smoothly as he looks after the details. We especially enjoyed the ambiance. Although the chicken in the Fettuccine Alfredo wasn't tasty, the Shrimp de Jonghe, however, was notably good.

This was my second time coming to Morettiâs and again they did not disappoint. Their food is phenomenal. From their Chicken Alfredo, to Pizza, to Parmesan Crusted Chicken. It is all amazing. Just rich flavors that melt in your mouth, and make you wana stuff your face until you canât no more. Plus they had Corona on tap! Iâm a huge fan of Corona, but never have I ever found it on tap before so I was super stoked about that. Love the staff, love the environment, LOVE the food! Great place and highly recommend!!
2. Maggiano's Little Italy

Love this place! The food is fabulous, the ambiance is pleasant and weâve never had anything less than excellent service. The eggplant parmigiana, served on a bed of vermicelli, melts in your mouth. Momma's lasagna is much better than my momma's pasta. The Taylor Street Baked Ziti is true Chicago Italian. The portions are huge and the fresh bread is refilled if you want. If you order one of the classic or speciality pastas you get a free pasta to take home (they freeze well). Maggiano's prices are an exceptional value, especially for a white tablecloth, full service restaurant. Want to avoid the crowd and parking crunch, go for a late lunch or early dinner.

I have never had authentic Chicago deep dish pizza before so I asked around and several people told me this was the best place to go. The pizza was delicious! This restaurant was very loud so I wouldnât recommend it for an intimate date night or business dinner. There is a carry out restaurant if you donât have time to wait and there is also frozen pizza for sale. When you order just know that it takes at least 30 minutes for them to bake your pizza so order an appetizer and just be patient.
