Returned to Manzella's this time to try their Pizza. We simply loved their Lasagna last trip down to Champaigne. This time someone suggested the pizza, so we tried that. It was good, but just not as good as some of the favorite Chicago places that everyone knows Chicago has some of the best Pizza in the Country. Server was sweet and friendly and efficient. Still like this place, but next time we go back to the Lasagna, thee best ever!
7. Vinny's East Coast Pizzeria

If you are searching for authentic New York style pizza this is your place. The thin crust is perfection. Their selection of toppings is extensive and the highest quality, such as portobello mushrooms and fresh mozzarella. The sauce is flavorful and just the right amount to set off your toppings. All of this comes at a price, but worth every penny. I wish they could serve beer or wine with their pizza, but sadly not now. A more upscale dining area would also be a plus, but hopefully this will come in the future. If chain quality pizza works,for you, go to one of those. But if you want the real deal, give Vinny's a try. You will not regret it.

Stay away!!! Visited on a Sunday afternoon. Walked in at 4:45, received food 5:58. There were two other tables occupied. Three tables were dirty. After an hour, three same tables still dirty. Food was average at best, and overpriced. This environment reeks of ânot my job Iâm going to ignore it.â Host tried jamming twelve people into a table that would normally seat eight. As soon as the people arrived, the customers themselves added another table to have enough room to sit. Laziness at its best. Stay away. When we left at 6:15, same tables STILL DIRTY!! Iâll be surprised if this place stays open if this type of behavior etc continues.

Ok, tried out the downtown Jupiters and loved it just as much as Jupiters at the Crossing! Consistently good food & great service. They also have a lot of exotic pizzas (Gyro Pizza was amazeballs). I went with the traditional sausage & pepperoni and loved it!Great atmosphere, very old school. Tons of room, pooltables, etc. And not too loud for an early Friday pm.

We attempted to visit Black Dog (Downtown) but was not willing to wait 90 minutes for a table (granted it was a Saturday night). We walked instead to Pizzeria Antica.Their website indicates they were founded in 2015. It shows. Our hostess was new - who then was our server, then not. It's a funky payment process - as you pay for your meal at the hostess stand.We started with a shared Italiano (large) salad ($10). Then the pizza came - Melanzana - described as Fresh Mozzarella, Roasted Eggplant, Sun Kissed Tomato, Chevre ($16).Both items were very tasty.Last - we had the gelato - very reasonable @ $3 for about a 4 oz. portion.Overall - a pleasant experience - but on the pricey side.

Biaggi's is a chain of Italian restaurants that isn't well known in Chicago. Maybe that's because there are no locations within the city limits, only three in faraway suburbs. There also are locations in eight other states. My wife and I discovered Biaggi's in Bloomington, Illinois, a few months ago. So we were eager to sample the location at 2235 South Neil Street in Champaign. The lunch/dinner menu is huge--and that doesn't include the chef's monthly specials. There are plenty of steaks, chops, seafood and pasta to choose from. We started with bruschetta with plum tomatoes, mozzarella, garlic and basil, sherry tomato soup, vegetable minestrone and Caesar salad. It was hard to pass up the August specials--Sicilian meatballs, potato parmesan crusted tilapia and key lime pie--but we were delighted with our entrees, grilled eight-ounce filet mignon with sauteed mushrooms, asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes and tomato cream sauce and crab-stuffed cod, wild caught North Atlantic cod fillet with lump crab meat stuffing, sauteed vegetables and lemon butter sauce. For dessert, also passed up traditional tiramisu, creme brulee and white chocolate pudding in favor of new delicious creations, mini chocolate pot de creme with bittersweet and milk chocolate custard and vanilla bean mousse and a mini turtle sundae with vanilla bean gelato, warm Columbian chocolate ganache, caramel sauce, roasted walnuts, vanilla bean mousse and an amorena cherry.
