Reviewed By 135MikeS135
We were staying in Indy and took the train to Chicago for the day. Decided to eat here since our son and friend s said it was great. The pizza was out of this world best deep dish chicopozza I have ever had. The service was terrible we waited 20 minutes after we were seated for a waitress and she was not around much. The deep dish takes 45 minutes to make so keep that in mind. The lunch specials are faster. We ordered the lunch specials and one meat deep dish. One off our daughters friend asked for the lunch special but somehow she got a small pizza . We told the server why would you think a little girl would get that when all the other kids got the lunch special. So we spent 25 dollars for her to eat 3 pieces of pizza. Common sense was not our waitress strong point. Food was great hopefully you get a better waitress. We will go back.

In 2011, owner/chef Gaetano Di Benedetto of Gaetano's in Forest Park was presented the distinguished "Ospitalita Italiana" award by the Italian government for his "authentic" Italian restaurant, an honor that only 600 restaurants worldwide have achieved. It figures. Gaetano's is unique with appetizers like crab cake cannelloni dei Cesari or desserts like tiramisu and home-made limoncello. Located at 7636 Madison Street, Gaetano's specializes in old school Italian cooking with classic recipes. Opened in 1978, Gaetano's serves from 5 to 9:30 Monday through Thursday and 4:30 to 10:30 Friday and Saturday. My wife and I opted for the a la carte menu. We started with spicy shrimp bisque with house-made Italian sausage, baby mixed greens tossed with sliced tomatoes, cucumber and red onion with sweet mustard vinaigrette, caramelized almonds, crispy pasta and carrots, and shrimp sauteed with caramelized garlic, gorgonzola and a touch of cream served in a puff pastry. Can it get better than this? Yes. For entrees, we chose one of Gaetano's specialties, the veal chop stuffed with crab meat sauteed with garlic, shrimp, gorgonzola fondue served over mashed potatoes, and the provimi veal scaloppine sauteed with shallots, garlic, assorted wild and exotic mushrooms, soaked with Marsala-white wine sauce and served with mashed potatoes. For dessert, what else but tiramisu? For a fine dining experience at an Italian restaurant, it doesn't get any better than this.

This would be great pizza if it were the 1970s, and your other options were Little Caesarâs and Dominos. However, in the 21st Cenrtury, there are so many better options, even among national chains. Visitors to Chicago who feel compelled to try Chicago deep dish will find it here. Just donât confuse it with GOOD pizza. Hi Eric, we are sorry to see you had a disappointing experience with us. We would love to hear from you about this more directly. What could we have done better? Please click the link to fill out the corresponding information. We are looking forward to hearing from you and truly appreciate your patience with us. http://bit.ly/LousCrew Best, Michelle Martinez Lou Malnati's Pizzeria

We went to Q's to have dinner with a friend. We got there early and had a drink at the bar. Nice little family restaurant and good drinks. We got there around 5:00 pm and got a table. The place was relatively empty, and we decided to order pizza. Since it was a Wednesday night, if you ordered one pizza, you get another one for free. The pizza was one of the best around. Thin crust and lots of toppings. We got two pizzas, and we ate almost all it between the three of us. The pizza was hot, and it was made quickly. By the time we got the pizza, the place was packed. Lots of families with kids, since they probably knew that it was pizza night! Service was very good and we ended up having one more drink at the bar after all that pizza. The menu is quiet large, with a lot of italian favorites on it, so we will have to go back to try some other dishes. Very friendly staff and nice little mom and pop place.

No complaints about the ambiance or comfort although the noise level was a little high. Our server was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. I met a friend for lunch and we were there a long time. We weren't rushed to order or to leave after eating. And, the place was packed. Our sandwiches were very good. I loved the oil and parm that came with our bread. The olives and peppers were a nice twist on a common offering. The wine was a generous pour. I wish restaurants offered a nice glass that was more reasonably priced - a decent house wine is always appreciated!

The map on my phone suggested this as a quick dinner stop as we were traveling from the Chicago airport to Michigan. My kids loved the huge pizza slices and the hotdogs were loaded. Prices were decent, fast food prices. We wanted a quick dinner, but something chicago-ish as we passed through. This fit the bill!

Rocky's is a wonderful, little restaurant that offers authentic, homemade Sicilian style dishes and pizza from recipes handed down to Tony Savarino by his father.
Reviewed By Bhopeful
Thereâs nothing like a Chicago style pizza. The thin cracker crust, medley of fresh ingredients and cheese, definitely plenty of that. Rockyâs gets it right. Nothing flashy or trendy, just homemade pizza done right. The staff is always pleasant and willing to accommodate guests wishes. Theyâre just the best. Rockyâs is a Westchester gem.
