Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Sat at the bar as I waited to attend my meeting and must say I was very disappointed in the service. Got a beer and had to track her down to place a food order and once the food order arrived she never asked if I needed anything or even If I wanted another beer. Finished and tracked her down for a check. Good was decent bar food and beer I thought was kinda flat for Guinness. The chicken sandwich was decent for bar food but I wish they had a better microbrew beer selection and tad more attentive service.
(2)Michael L.
Service was very attentive with drinks constantly being refilled friendly too! Got The chicken avocado wrap and was quite good with fries other diners around the table had similar experience. Large portions too I took half home but ate all the fries!!
(4)Nikki S.
I've been here twice, once was a bad experience the other was decent. They need more food places in bartlett- seriously! I had the grilled calamari app and it was DISGUSTING! It was rubbery and had no flavor. It took me close to 5 minutes to chew a piece down the size of my pinky. The other time I went I had mozzarella sticks and the vodka gnocchi which were both very good! The bartenders could use a little work, the only good one I saw was a guy who was on top of it. The one chick poured me a 312 and a greenline draft and got them confused and had to actually turn around towards the tap system to figure it out. They don't have more than 6 beers on tap- you should know your product enough to know the 312 is a wheat beer and will be the cloudy one but I guess common sense just doesn't bless us all. Other than that I love the ambiance and will return one more time to try a pizza, I hear they do those very, very well.

I've only been here once, so I hope the four-star rating is constantly deserved. I came at an off time (around 3pm) to meet up with a friend for a bite to eat so it wasn't busy. I've been curious about it for some 8-9 months now because no matter what hour I seem to drive past it at, there are always cars there! The interior was fine, spacious, didn't pay too much attention to décor or anything but it seemed clean (bathroom included), could probably use a few new tiles in the floor and a couple new seat benches to replace the tearing ones, but that's all that caught my eye. Our server was very nice and attentive (Ryan, I think his name was), brought us a basket of bread and our drinks and made sure to keep our drinks filled even after we paid (always a plus in my book). I ordered the Chicken and Strawberry salad ($10.99) which was very good and large! Besides mixed greens, chicken, and strawberries, it also had mandarin oranges, candied pecans, feta cheese, grapes, red onions, and was tossed in a raspberry vinaigrette. Worth it. Though I didn't order anything else, I did see that they have a rewards card if you are a frequent flyer, and they also have various drink and meal specials (including lunch specials during the week) which seemed appealing. By the time we left, people were starting to come for dinner. Moretti's does take reservations so if you're planning on coming at a mealtime hour I'd say you probably should make reservations; like I said, I've gone pass this place as late as 3am+ and still seen cars there, during peak hours it's busy (no, 3am is not a peak hour). I think the late business is in part due to some sort of club thing there. I don't know details, but the person I went with mentioned that they had some sort of dance portion or something, I don't know. Well, I know they're known for the pizza and such, but as of right now all I can recommend is that salad, I'd be willing to go back and I'm sure I will!
(4)Jennifer S.
Moretti's has earned that third star. After some carryout orders and a recent visit, I'd say that things have improved. Most recently, we sat at the side bar. Did you know that they had a second bar off to the side? I didn't. Three TVs are setup above the bar and we were able to watch the Chicago Blackhawks, the World Series and College Football all at once. I was extremely pleased. Our server/bartender, Cory, took great care of us and even had a manager change the channel when one college game was over to switch to another. She was attentive and offered some good suggestions. The bar was clean. I didn't feel grossed out sitting there as I often do at other bars. And Cory was on top of checking the glasses. She would pick up a glass, inspect it in the light and wipes spots off or even discard as needed. I appreciate that sort of attention to detail. The food was served up hot and quickly. Again, no room for any complaints. I may just have to add Moretti's back to the list of acceptable places for dinner that's close to home.
(3)Todd L.
My wife and I stopped in last night for a bite to eat it was very busy but we got in right away. We ordered some calamari and a specialty pizza ,the barbecue chicken. Our server Murray was very nice and helpful. We found out why it was so busy Tuesdays is half-price pizza. We always have a good time and a good experience every time we eat there. It's a very family-friendly environment as well hope this review helps with your decision making on where to eat.
(5)Linda Y.
Not as good as it used to be. I was very disappointed with my meal tonight. I don't eat meat, so there were very few menu options for me and the fettuccini alfredo with broccoli was not very good. It's too bad they took the pesto cavatappi pasta off the menu which was my favorite. I will not be a regular customer here anymore.
(2)Scott F.
Ok, we really don't have much close by that's anywhere a sports bar, but Morettis used to qualify. NOW, however, your unwise decision to take away the NFL package will assure you of one thing---empty Sundays. Who will come here on a Sunday?? Sports bar that doesn't show sports. Hmmmm. This leaves Tuesday as the only night to come to the place for the half priced pizza...but you probably don't want to do that either because it's now turned into the old folks/homeless crowd that comes for the ZA and orders round after round of water. Good job management, this may be the nail in the coffin that we are all waiting for. So sad because I remember how they used to pack this place and gave the customer a reason to return. That's gone now.
(1)r w.
always order the thin crust pizza and it never disappoints, always good, cant say the same for the service and the bartenders, they tend to get overwhelmed between the bar patrons and the drink orders and you wind up waiting longer than usual. As at anyplace some servers are just better than others...shout out to TJ and Ryan
(4)Eddie E.
Always good... Hot Pizza at the table. Great service . Always good for Games on the tv's . Bartlett's pizza joint. Enjoy!
(5)Erin F.
If you go to the resteraunt the food is always pretty good. There delivery system is slow. I have ordered when I had guest over and it didn't come for two hours later on a Sunday afternoon. This past time I have ordered a pizza and it was cold. I expect a piping hot pizza and took one bight and it tasted like left over pizza. I have been ordering from Taylor Street Lately because you get piping hot pizza. The other issue I have is the way the take orders. They will put you on hold on a Friday early evening for more than a half hour. Once again I have hung up and ordered from Taylor Street. Finally, whatever happen to ringing the door bell. They either call or knock really obnoxiously. Yes..I have my porch light on, my chandler on and door open waiting. I still keep thinking that at some point someone will ring the doorbell. I finally called the manager tonight and put in an official complaint so we will see what they say. I live less than a mile from Moretties and my pizza should not be cold. If I hear back from them tomorrow. .I will also add what they say to this review. I do want to say their soup and salads are to die for. I am picky so they usually make it to my liking. I normally get the chi Ken chopped salad or Italian Cobb. I also should mention that I did have my rehearsal dinner at Moretties. We had about 40 people..immediate family and out of town guest. They did do an awesome.job with the buffet and accommodation for an Irish wedding..they kept the beer flowing the whole time. Like I said..in the resteraunt great..delivery not.if I could I would give the dining service 4 stars and delivery 1..so I thought three was fair.
(3)Rob O.
Good food. Great service. Waitstaff is outstanding. Excellent choice for pizza, pasta, salad or sandwich. Decor and cleanliness is better than typical for this kind of sports bar. Plenty of TVs. Quiet in the afternoons. Lively for game nights. Big parking lot.
(5)Brian H.
Stopped for lunch and had the chicken strawberry salad. This is seriously one of the best salads I've had. Very fresh and huge. Had a nice mix of greens, fruit, pecans Its dressing was fantastic too. Worth every penny.
(5)Brian C.
Great pizza, very cool place. Restaurant seating and bar seating are too intermingled. Pizza is very good along with pretty much anything I've ever tried here. The coconut battered onion rings appetizer are a must try.
(4)Allison A.
Amazing!!!! I went on a Tuesday night with my husband. Half price appetizers, half price pizza and 4 dollar glasses of wine? WIN!!!! It was also amazing as well. My gluten free pizza with spinach hit the spot. At only 5 dollars with the deal it was cheaper than even the grocery store frozen gluten free pizza. I will absolutely be back. Very very very soon!
(5)Hardeek P.
Came here with a few friends, to celebrate a buddy's birthday. Why Moretti's, because honestly it was a last resort. Our server was great, she was on point with the drinks, checking in, giving us decent suggestions. Food - for apps we got the coconut onion rings - server suggested it, I figured she looks like knows food so lets give it a shot. She was right, it was pretty good, tasted like an onion ring but the sweet n sour sauce give it a little extra something. We ended up getting pizza - well done. I've had there's before at a different location, wasn't really impressed but didn't feel it was bad either. It was definitely decent, nice thin crust. Warning... Pizza is good when it's hot.... eating left overs after heating it up, doesn't taste the same. I'm sure I'll be asked to watch at a game at one of the many Moretti's locations. I heard the other food's pretty good as well, but I have my favorites when it comes to Pizza.
(3)Tim T.
Go on Tuesdays for half price pizza!! Love the deep dish! Get there between 4:30 and 5:00 for best seating. They recently started to take reservations for as few as two people. What?? But we didn't have to wait long.
(3)Kirsten M.
Overall experiences here have been pretty good over the years. The drink selection is okay - I wish there was more in terms if beer selection, but the mixed drinks are better and I usually go that route while here. The spinach dip is one of my absolute favorites around and a big reason I keep coming back!!! The pizza is also pretty goo if you stick to the basics. I've always had sausage or cheese and have enjoyed it. However, we recently ordered the Mac n' cheese pizza and were less than impressed... There was maybe a tbsp of alfredo on the whole thing and that was supposed to be the sauce, so the pizza was dry. I will definitely be returning, although likely will stick to my favorites.
(4)Craig E.
Never again. Too noisy. Bar tender wants to shake hands.. rubber chicken marsala in a burnt drab sauce. Suburban crap hole for ignorant families with yuppy kids!
(1)Jo Ann D.
Wait time in restaurant is way to long: 45 to an hour at dinner time (wish they would take reservations) so we've been ordering TAKE OUT food, we usually order pizza, it has NOT been a good experience. We've done it 3 times and WON'T do it again. Pizza is always over cooked (dry) and cold when we get it home & I live 5 minutes from the location. 3XS & you're out.
(2)Katie B.
Had a group of 15 come in for a birthday party. Waitress messed up on our first drink order... which was 1 glass of wine, 4 waters, and a bucket of coors. It then took her 20 minutes to get drinks for the other half of the table. After we got drinks it took approx another 30 min until she took our order for food. Overall, the wait was unbelievable. If I hadn't' been there with a big group of friends I would have walked out. The food wasn't anything to get excited about either. Considering all the restaurants in the area, I believe you can do much better than Moretti's.
(2)Seng M.
Worst service ever. 1. Started off well. Hostess was friendly and welcoming (as usual). 2. Waitress (Angelica) came over after we were seated for more than 5min. She decided to take a seat next to me in a booth. Clearly, any established restaurant knows that this is a no-no. Get out of my personal space. You are not my friend and there is no reason why ANYONE should ever be that close to me. 3. Waitress had ZERO knowledge of the beers offered on tap or bottled. I'll just take a water then, thank you. She was obnoxiously loud and pushy. -I'm sorry, you're waiting to go eat your pizza? Well I guess I'll hurry up and order. 4. Food came- great as always. Waitress on the other hand... Downward spiral. Checked up once. Left in a hurry. Unable to get another water. 5. Ate. Leftover pizza sitting. Normally, the table would be cleared and dessert offered. Hey, that's okay. I'll wait 20min to order my cannoli. still no water by the way. 6. Rude and loud employees. Dearest Angelica, I do not believe that shouting, "what up big money!"to another employee Is appropriate. What do I know though? I'm there for great food and service. I'm just the customer. 7. Another 20min wait for a check. Beer glasses empty and wait for it... Water still empty. 8. We paid our bill and left. We were beyond disappointed in the experience. Employees should not have personal, loud and leud conversations in front of customers. They should not rush customers because their own dinner is waiting. A customer should never have to wait as long as we did for any kind of service. I truly hope management is not aware of their behavior. If so, I hope the owners know that their managers and employees are going to be the reason why they lose customers.
(1)John T.
We ordered from here last week. The 'pizza' (?) took well over an hour to get to us.....and it was cold. Not only cold.....but the worst pizza we ever had. I swear....they used tomato paste......and mostly tomato paste as the pizza sauce. The worst pizza ever. We would never order from there again. We ordered from our son's house in Schaumburg.
(1)Brynn B.
If you want the best server ever- ask for Angelica. She is incredibly knowledgable, kind, helpful, hilarious, and a pleasure to be served by. Personally, I like when a server is friendly and outgoing. This girl knows what's up. I have never had better service!
(5)Catherine P.
First off, I have to say I love this place- on the right day!!! Great family atmosphere, pretty knowledgeable servers (like JOHN), good food, reasonable prices. Can't get enough. I know there is another one closer to home in Schaumburg, but I first went to this one in Bartlett and now it's our Moretti's. They have specials on Wednesdays that come via email and/or text and they really make you want to come back for more. We have had their sandwiches, pizza and burgers, but I recommend their Rosemary Lemon Chicken and Coconut Onion Rings if you are looking for a killer meal!! I have run into the slower server here and there, but where can you go nowadays that doesn't have one or two of those people? If you want a glass of ice water, I believe it's well water, so be prepared to have soda, tea or drinks. Soda tastes a little off, but the food makes up for it to me. We try and go once a month on average and may try another location soon just to see if they are all the same.
(4)Candi P.
Okay... what's up with their drinking water? I'm writing this review a long time after having been there, but the first thing that popped into my head was that my water tasted so shitty, I ended up drinking beer that night. Otherwise, the pizza was excellent, bruschetta was great, and the table tapper was a good idea (just make sure there's enough beer drinkers at your table, because warm beer is no good!). We waited a while for our table for four plus a high chair, but there was a game on that night so I understand. Service was just okay, but I'm definitely gonna try their pizza to go/delivery.
(3)Denise J.
Been here a few time for dinner and it never disappoints. This time was for my Grandparents 62nd Anniversary!!! They have a huge menu selection of all different types of food. There is NO WAY you wouldn't be able to find something that sounds good. The portions are big, you will have plenty of leftovers to bring home. The one thing I will complain about it the beer menu, it is very limited(Miller,Coors, Blue Moon). They do have specials on Sunday for draft beer so that kind of made up for their limited selection. I ordered the speghetti with italian sausage and it came with garlic bread. I guess my meal looked pretty good because my nephew who ordered pizza decided he wanted to share my speghetti with me, I know how nice right! : ) The italian sausage had a spice to it, I LOVED it!! I ended up eating that while my nephew ate my pasta and we still had leftovers to take home. I will be back for sure, I just hope they get a few more beer selections *cough* Angry Orchard *cough*
(4)Pierre D.
I don't see why people are reviewing this place sooo low. First of all everything is pretty cheap, and the pizza, have you people had the pizza?! Okay, they have poor tap water, this translates to anything with water in it (beverages like fountain drinks and duh water to taste bad, the staff is knowledgeable about this and when I mentioned it they offered to get me something else - i opted for a Beer so problem solved!). The pizza is what I usually come here for. Thin crust is amazing! A good appetizer to try is the coconut onion rings. They're not the onion rings that leave you thinking where's the onion. You get 7 and these suckers are HUGE, 1 appetizer is good for 3-4 people! I'll be back and as a pro tip I'd suggest to keep it simple, beer, onion rings, Pizza and I dare say you'll have a "Yay! I'm a fan" experience!
(4)Tommy D.
This place is solid. Plenty of food options here. Lots of comfort food and huge portions. We come here with my parents once in a while and we always leave super full and satisfied. The last time I was here, I was hungover and my sister-in-law talks me into the mac n cheese pizza. Just fuck the bullshit, right? So i do. Mac n cheese on garlicky pizzas crust. Pretty gosh darn tasty. the end pieces were a little hard. The middle sections were excellent, and cheesy and starchy as all fucking hell. Delicious. I dipped my slices in some marinara sauce, which kinda sounds weird, but it was fine. Maybe some Alfredo dipping sauce would rip tho. Next time I'm feeling like gaining 4 lbs at dinner, I'll get the Alfredo sauce dip too. Anyway.. the beer list is a little limiting (MGD, Sam Adams), but the food is good and plentiful. Lots of great apps to try as well. Get some.
(4)Mark L.
Atmosphere and food were great but waiting for 15 mins for the server was not. She was nice when she arrived. Will give them another chance.
(3)Michelle F.
We met here with a total of eight people. The food was good, the service was good, and it wasn't crowded at! It was a great experience! I can't wait to go back!
(4)Kai R.
Likes: -Family friendly- There were nothing, but families in the restaurant. -TVs- not only did they have ESPN on, but America's Funniest Home videos. Again, making it family friendly. Also, they have the bar playing game on TV where you compete against other people answering questions. -Food- The food was o.k., but it seem like typical bar food. My son and wife loved it. I do have to say the pizza had a ton of cheese. -Decor- Nice place and the beer garden/ patio looks very nice. Tips: -By 5 pm it will be crowded, arrive early. -Expect it to be noisy, it is a bar and the dining area has a ton of families.
(4)Ken D.
I've been to Moretti's or ordered from Moretti's probably 6 times in the last year and I have never once been disappointed. From pizza to pasta, all of their dishes taste great! Parmesan Breadsticks......a must order!
(5)Noreen S.
Ordered pizza here again. Overall, liked it. But I like a little garlic on my pizza. A little. Sprinkled around the whole pizza. Twice now I've got pizza with clumps of garlic dumped in spots. The effect is - one slice with no garlic, the next slice is overpowered with garlic. This time I asked for "easy garlic" in the hopes of it being spread around. Nope. Lumps in four spots. The chef should be required eat this.
(3)Vince A.
Hawks game was on and we wanted pizza so Moretti's was the call. Started with fried calamari which can (and was) served with giardenara. I love it this way and definitely order that when I can. For pizza, went with half sausage and half of their moretti's special (pepperoni, sausage, bacon with BBQ sauce) and it was quite good. I didn't remember the crust being as crunchy as it was but it was a good thing. Beer was cold, drinks were alright. Been away for too long.
(4)Anne P.
I've been here several times...with my husband and two kids, meeting friends for dinner, getting take out, attending one of their special kiddie New Year's events, and picking up catering orders. I'm glad that such a place exists so close by. For my family - it is our "we are hungry and in the mood for good pizza but don't want to go far and spend a lot of money" place. When meeting friends - it is our "we can grab some appetizers and drinks and catch up on life events and be as loud as we want and still won't be able to be heard" place. When getting take out, it is our "curbside pickup" place. When attending their kiddie New Year's event, it is our "wonderful place for the kids to enjoy their new year and be loud and dance and they won't mess up my house" place. And, of course, the catering...that is my personal favorite "don't want to cook and having people over and it satisfies everyone's palette" place. As a previous reviewer said - it is NOISY. A great place for my kids because they get loud sometimes. :) The tables are jammed together, too - kind of felt like we were creeping into other people's dining space. Not a big fan of that. Gets crowded on the weekends and when there are sporting events so take that into consideration! We will continue to go there as long as they are around. It is truly one of our faves.
(4)Scott K.
Figures I find a really good thin crust pizza and the place is way far from home. I can't recall when the last time I ate in Bartlett if ever but because it was a 30 B-day celebration for my illegally adopted daughter as in she a friend's offspring but I love her as if she were my own we drove the hour plus to Moretti's and even if the b-day celebration wasn't for her but her really old dad the drive would have been worth it for the pizza. Crisp, saucy and yum yum for the tum tum it was. It appears Moretti's has multiple locations so I'm going to have to do some campaigning for them to come out to the corn fields of DeKalb or Sycamore because if they were to it easily become my number one pizza place
(5)Laura A.
Moretti's has good pizza and a decent beer selection. If you can get past their never-ending loop of "funniest home videos/craziest extreme sports accidents ever" videos that is seemingly always playing on the TVs there, it is a decent bar to chill out in on an afternoon/early evening and chat with friends. The food isn't fantastic; I think the sandwiches I've eaten there are too expensive for what they are, and the pasta dishes are a little bit on the salty side, but their bruschetta bread is AWESOME. Seriously if you go to Moretti's you HAVE TO get the bruschetta. I can't live without it. Good service as well. Overall, I'd like to give it a 3.5 for the bruschetta. WOW.
(3)M P.
We've been coming to Moretti's for a while now and enjoy it. Yes it does get quite crowded and loud on certain days and times, but just shows you how good the food is here. We love the bruschetta and pizza. Can't go wrong there. The wraps are pretty good as well.
(4)Shannon M.
Food and service has always been great!!!
(4)Jennifer W.
Pizza is awesome! Good deals and the pasta is great too!
(5)Aletta J.
Tasty but NOISY! I think it would behoove them to put a wall up between the bar and the restaurant to make it more cozy. I can't remember what the other restaurants had in there, but I believe it was open, too. The 2nd bar was closed, else I would have rather eaten there. Anyway, about the food... We had the stuffed mushrooms (which I made at home myself a few nights later) and each had a salad. Friend had the herbed chicken salad and declared it was the best salad she'd had in a long time and I had their chopped salad with chicken. I loved the grilled chicken and crispy bits of prosciutto as well as the roasted red peppers. I think I'll try the house dressing on it next time. Prior to my friend arriving I had an Irish coffee which was not traditional -- it was nutty; frangelico? It was ok, and served in a beer tumbler. No footed glass to which the server apologized. (I really don't care) It hit the spot and the price was right. Definitely a place for both sporties and families. Each tele has something different. America's funniest videos on two different screens (two different episodes) and different sports channels. For those raving about the pizza, "let me be the judge of that". I am a fan of cracker thin crust and quite picky about the italian sausage that is put on my 'za. Sausage can be too farmy (there are places that are like this - it's called the sausage is OLD) or too sweet. Will have to try next time we go there. Oh, maybe they can get a GLUTEN FREE crust!! :) Oh, and if you're trying to turn left (west) out of their parking lot, be patient but be very careful. Trucks are a mainstay on Rte 20 and you can pull into the center lane and just wait til you can merge. Or turn right and try to figure getting back on 20... Just be careful!!
(3)R I C K Y B O B B Y.
One of the best pizza's in the area in my opinion. Since pizza preference is a very personal thing, I'm not going to bore you with why I think this is great. I simply wanted to point out an amazing deal you can get at this place. Tuesday Nights is half-price pizza night. Then on top of that, they offer half price appetizers until 530p. If you are able to get in before 530pm, this is a STEAL of a deal! My family and I take advantage of it often!
(4)Glenn R.
This is one of my favorite local Italian eateries and Bar and It is only 5 minutes away from the house. You have many Italian entress and appetizers to choose from, not to mention their homemade pizzas. On Tuesday nights, their pizza is half off.....how can you beat that? They also have really cheap lunch specials, and during the week after work they have a 50% off all their appetizers with a drink purchase from 4 to 5:30pm. I sometimes come here after work with a friend and for 50% off, we order a ton of appetizers and guzzle it down with a beer. My absolute favorite appetizers are the Bruschetta, Tomato Mozzarella Caprese, Sausage & Peppers, and their Buffalo Wings.
(4)Ryan H.
Great food. I would have given it 5 stars were it not for the noisy atmosphere associated with the "sports bar" feel to this restaurant. The beer was cold. The pasta just how I like it. Overall, a great experience. I still like the "feel" to the Fox Lake Moretti's better.

I went into Moretti's with Yelpers reviews in my head. Service is spotty, pizza is awesome, yadda yadda. Well, I kind of found the opposite. First, Kids eat free at Moretti's on Mondays. We did not know this before we went in, but were excited to see this! They have a really cool feature that if your kid gets a personal pizza for their meal, they get to make it themselves. My son was SO flippin excited about this! We ordered a sausage and pepperoni thin crust, well done. This is our usual menu choice to see how good the pizzas are at a new place. Well, we somehow got a pizza with Sausage, Pepperoni and Bacon on it. It was pretty gross. So I can't really give a great review on the pizza. Other than to say, the bottom crust was not crunchy, yet the crust around the edges was super crunchy. The server was very responsive and checked with the kitchen. She indeed ordered the pizza correctly. Nonetheless, a free dessert was quickly offered to make up for the pizza. We accepted that, but gave it to our kids. No worries from me, I'm on a diet anyways. The best thing about this place in my opinion is the atmosphere. There are tvs all over ...it's very casual and comfy in there. Not too bright, not too dark. The bar has a great selection. We plan to go back without the kids just to try some of the stuff at the bar. The outdoor area is massive! So, excluding the food error...not bad and not great. Just ok. And hoping that next time it's better. :)

We have friends who practically worship at Moretti's. We want to like it too because it's so close. But, no. We do not get the appeal. The food is mediocre at best. Pizza is the best thing they do, true, but it's not "the best" like other reviews say. Maybe on half-price pizza night it would taste better knowing it's a great deal. Place is loud. The tables and booths don't feel clean. Service is average. We've tried a number of times in hopes that we just had an off-night and could enjoy it like our friends do. But to no avail. Meh.

I cant believe it took me this ling to review, I live a block away. One one the only cool places in Bartlett to hang out at. The building has had several failures in it over the years and it looks like Moretti's is here to stay. Although it can get very crowded they space is large enough to handle it. They have a great Bar and lots of TV's so its a perfect place to catch a game. The food choices are all solid, good sandwiches, pasta, salads and very good pizza. You see all kinds of people from families with kids to sports fans with everyone having a good time.
(4)Nicole M.
So Morettis huh! I have had a couple of different dishes from here and have not been disappointed. The pizza is decent not my fav but good. I really want to try the Mac and Cheese pizza! Anyone know if it worth trying? I think Tuesday nights are the half off pizza nights, Dine in only and the place gets packed! And of course I have had the chicken fingers, which were good. The chicken wings are tasty and probably better then most places. Burgers are good, better then Red Robin that's for sure. And the prices are pretty reasonable. The staff can be a little slow but they are pretty friendly.

We've been back in the restaurant a couple of times since I wrote this review. Wow, Moretti's, I really want to like you! Help me out here!! We went about a month ago in a group of 7. Service was VERY good - food okay, bar drinks took a long time. However, I'm now in love with their apple martinis :) Last week my husband and I went alone and sat outside. Seemed to be a lot of confusion as to who our server was, but once that got straightened out everything was good. Our server brought my husband a birthday sundae, which was very sweet and unnecessary - she oveheard us talking and did it on her own. My husband was a little mortified that he was sung to but 8 people, but it was cute and a nice gesture. Keep working on your customer service, Moretti's!!
(3)Dennis O.
What can I say...another great dinner! Great, friendly service! The fish fry was excellent...as was the slaw and the homemade chips. This is why we keep coming back...consistent quality and service!
(5)A.J. M.
I live right around the corner from here! Moretti's is a great place to go watch your favorite team on the big screen while grabbing some food! The pizza is great, there thin crust is the way to go! On of my favorite pizza's is the Buffalo Chicken Pizza! The staff is very nice and management is very accommodating! All around great Italian restaurant and sports bar!

Attached to the Cadillac Ranch, Moretti's (Bartlett) has just been converted over from Sam Houston's Charhouse. Talk about a change for the better! This is exactly the kind of place Bartlett needs. Casual atmosphere, great outdoor seating. Good service. Good bar/TVs for watching the game. Great variety of food. The pizza is the big draw and is available for delivery, but the other fare shouldn't be ignored. I tried out the Lemon Risotto on my most recent visit. It was on the paper insert on the menu and likely isn't part of the everyday fare, but if you get the chance to try it out, absolutely pick up a bowl. The mix of risotto, spinach, mushrooms, and chicken was outstanding, and the lemon was far from overpowering as I expected it might be. After your meal, plan an evening at the Cadillac Ranch, or consider walking across the street to purchase your very own RV, or walk even further and take a plunge down the Villa Olivia snow hill!

Went this past Friday at the suggestion of some friends. They said it was a good place. I actually didn't want to go to a "Pizza Place" for cocktails. After looking over the menu (after all I was hungry too), I happened to catch sight of a pizza on its way to another table. We were seated at the bar having drinks and I decided to order a 12" House pizza. It was fantastic. I have had pizza all over the country and I even lived in Naples for a few years. This pizza it the best I have ever had. I wasn't really wanting "pizza" nor did I think I'd like it so much. I ate almost the whole dang thing by myself! The one complaint is that the female bartender who served us had to bust out a recipe card for the drink we ordered (Who can't make an Old Fashioned?) And when she couldn't figure out the card she just simply refused to make the drink and the rest of the night we had to wait each time we ordered a round for another bartender to make the drink - then he used a salt shaker to muddle the drink?!?! Who wants something that EVERYBODY touched used to make their drink? The rest was premium but this one thing was gross.

This Review is for the BAR...CADILLAC RANCH. Where have all the cowboys come from? I had no idea we had so many in Illinois. I mean, they look authentic, from a Yankee point of view anyway. And their womenfolk in their high waisted, no pocket jeans seemed to be the real thing too! Country - Western Music until 2 AM. We arrived around midnight found a nice booth right next to the roller ink sized dance floor where the line dancers were doing their thing. Some of us in the group really like Country Music, me not so much. But the energy of the regular dancers there made me a fan. From another in the group I learned they were playing more modern Country. The dancers were a hell of a lot of fun to watch. There was one really enthusiastic little cowboy that did four turns for every other man's two and slid way further, stomped way harder, and kicked way higher. We whistled him a shout and wished for some rope to lasso him a bit closer. The cocktail servers were a lot of fun. They offered to bring us a cowboy over to dance with but we declined gracefully. They were really on the ball and seriously patient with our drunk fumbling cash handling fingers. The female bartender I found was excellent as well. I am not at all fond of the tall white bartender who told me a racist joke while I waited for her to pour my drinks. Seriously? WTF?? The clientele are really nice. Someone bought us drinks but the server couldn't find him for us to thank. He showed up a bit later just to say hello. How sweet. Another cowboy hopped in our booth to say howdy and welcome us. If anyone in our group attempted a line dance the folks on the floor did their best to help them learn with subtle gestures. When they didn't catch on too quickly the gestures got bigger. By 1:30 a crowd of not so Western looking people gathered around the dance floor waiting their turn. By 1:45 we were pretty anxious for a change in tunes as well. I think the DJ was five minutes late in making the switch. It felt like an hour. We saw our booth cowboy juking with two girls, who knew cowboys juked? Young looking girls were carded on the floor. Glad to see they're on top of their game here, those girls looked pre-pubescent. Especially in the bathroom where later I found them nursing one of the three back from puking in a stall. The bathrooms are big, lots of stalls to accommodate lots of people. BUT...by 12:30 half of them were out of toilet paper and when I left at 4 AM. they'd still not been refilled. The paper towels were gone as well. :(

The bad experience I recently had at Moretti's was entirely due to the poor performance of the Bears against the Chiefs! The Bloody Mary I started off with was good. I opted to have them serve me a "generic" one rather than construct my own at the bar- I was feeling lazy... The pizza was quite good, and the staff was attentive.
(4)James M.
My family and i ordered delivery recently ...i ordered the margherita pizza and the gf and kid the cheese pizza...sorry to say it was a let down ...first the cost was over priced aswell as the gave us a deep dish not a pan pizza like we requested for the cheese.. the gross over use of Parmesan on the pizza almost made the smell to much to handle ... In addition the sauce was lackin in any real flavor.... I will not be ordering their pizza again. But j plan to explore the restaurant soon as it is the closest bar to my house.

BOO! Went here on a Tuesday night with a group of 6...of course, we werent smart enough to make reservations so when we arrived they told us a 35 min wait...no big deal. We headed to the bar with our buzzer and decided on some drinks. Chatting it up, hanging out and finally after an hour we realize that its been an hour and still no seats. We asked, they had already seated us...interesting because we obviously werent already seated so they seated us immediately. At this point, we are STARVING! Plus about two drinks in. A server comes over and states that she is not our server but is helping her out so if we were ready to order or wanted some drinks. We said we wanted waters and needed a little time to think about the menu. We a little time turned into a good 15 minutes with no one coming over so we stopped a random server and asked if we had a server. She said she would get her....we waited for another 5 mins and decided to get up and go order apps at the bar next to it...when we were walking out, we stopped to talk to them about our experience and all we got was Im sorry...great customer service...NOT! I was going to give them one star but then later a manager actually came over to the bar and they paid for our apps so it was ok, however, the original situation was handled very poorly sooooo I actually cant comment on any of the food because I didnt have anything from there because they couldnt get their shit together so that I could actually eat...LAME!
(2)amy w.
As far a pizza goes Moretti's thin crust is our favorite. We have dined-in and attended a youth soccer party each time they have over charged us and service was slow. We do love the food so we order takeout at least 3 times/month. The onion rings are the bomb!
(4)Yvette C.
Why have I not gone here before!!?? I was recommended to have dinner here last month and wish I tried them sooner! The service was friendly, the food was delicious and not too pricey. After our dinner & drinks we got to sneak into the Ranch at no charge, SCORE! Will for sure be back, esp for the karaoke! Too much fun!!!
(5)Mike T.
Okay, I'm doing an update giving this joint one more star. The service has gotten a TAD better. We're not waiting an hour at 5pm on Saturday nights anymore. The real reason I'm giving it another star is the pizza is just freaking outstanding. I mean outstanding pizza. Just as good as Lou Malnati's.
(3)Melissa B.
Pizza: A+ Atmosphere: A+ Rest of the food: Eh I have tried numerous other "Italian" dishes here and I've come to a realization: just stick with the pizza and phenomenal breadsticks. The coke sucks, tastes like the machine needs a cleaning, and even their desserts are very bland and I'm a big dessert person. The Sangria sucks, tastes like watered down fruit punch, don't waste your money like I did. Then they actually charged us for a birthday sundae that my son requested for my husband's birthday. How tacky! A scoop of ice cream, some chocolate syrup and whipped cream was all it was. This is really too bad because I was so excited when this place opened, because sadly, there's not a whole lot going on in Bartlett. I have even went here late on a Saturday night numerous times and this place is always dead! What gives? Maybe it's the bad, cheesy 80's music videos? Or is everyone over at the Cadillac Ranch in the adjacent space? I don't want to party with a bunch of honkeytonkers! Not my scene. Sadly, some days I long for ol' Sam Houstons...
(2)Sassy M.
The food is really good. We've been there many times and recommend the pizza or pastas. The BBQ pizza and Asiago pasta are some of our favorites. The kids pizza is ordered up in a very unique way. Once you order they bring out the dough and different ingredients for the kids to put their own pizza together themselves. There are also MANY TV screens to catch whatever sporting event is on. I would have given it a 5 but the service the last couple times was slow and lacking personality. Hopefully they fixed the problem. We're looking forward to going back soon.
(5)Barbie c.
I have to say, I'm a fan BUT if you are a true pizza eater you MUST try Joseph's in Glendale Heights.
(4)Cherie K.
Moretti's deep dish pizza is great; better than Lou Malnati's and that's saying a lot for us! We've been there twice; once for pizza and the other time for regular fare and the food on both occasions was very good; however, service was very slow both times. The second time was so bad, the manager and waiter offered us free desserts to make up for it, but we will definitely be back. We figured it was just growing pains and they'll improve on the service.
(4)Donna R.
Have been to multiple Moretti's now, and this one is really close to our current home (I mean we could walk it if too many root beers were consumed), so I am sure this will be the only location we will frequent now... Pros: Love the outdoor seating (though that comes with a con) Prices are super reasonable Food is yummy Ambiance inside is nice Cons: Bad service (but friendly) when we were there and then when ordered takeout, they forgot one of our meals (but then offered us a free dessert) Right off a busy street so you hear all the traffic with the outdoor seating

Having lived in Los Angeles for the past 16 years, I've learned to accept cardboard, tomato sauce & cheese as a basic pizza. I've also realized how spoiled I was for the first 35 years of my life living in the Chicago area! Over the past 4 years or so, every time I come back to visit friends & family in Streamwood, I always arrange a get-together for pizza & drinks at Moretti's. The food has always been consistently good and the service has been good to very good. That is, up until tonight... I called today to get a reservation for 5 people for 5 PM. Being in need of a hip replacement, I all but need to sit at a high top table. I was told the only one available was only big enough for 4 people. Knowing 1 or 2 of the people wouldn't be showing up until after 6, I went ahead and took it. Moretti's hostess staff has always been understanding and do whatever they can to try to accommodate my needs. I arrived slightly before 5 and 2 others came between 5 and 5:15. MALLORY was our server. We ordered our drinks (lemonades and iced teas) and a couple of appetizers so we could wait a bit before ordering pizza. As Mallory cleared our plates when we were finished, a marinara cup slid off of the plate, covering her pant leg with it. When the cup struck the floor, it obviously spun and flung a chunk of tomato which struck my sister in the shoulder. I told her she should go to the bar so she could get a cloth bar towel with soda water so it wouldn't stain. Several minutes later, the manager (BLAKE) came over to check with us since he had heard that there was a problem. He was VERY apologetic and offered to pay for dry cleaning the shirt or if there was anything else he could do for us. When we told him it wasn't a problem at all, just a matter of physics and these things happen, he thanked us for being so understanding. FINALLY after being there for about an hour we decide to order a couple of pizzas. Tuesday is HALF PRICE PIZZA NIGHT (dine in only!) so the place is pretty busy from 5 PM on. We settled on what we wanted and ordered a couple. Just after the pizzas came to the table, our 4th finally arrived. Now mind you, by now we've probably been there an hour and a half and are just getting our pizzas. Meanwhile, Mallory has been refilling our lemonades and iced teas without a moment's hesitation or one of us having to ask. Now, I've gone to restaurants where the server thinks, "Great, free refills and discounted food... so much for a decent tip!" and the service they have provided has shown it. That was NOT the case tonight. All in all, we occupied a table for an extended period and only wound up with a $50 tab. And nearly a third of that was 3 beers that our 4th person ordered! And yet, during the entire time we were occupying one of her tables, Mallory's service and personality never wavered, not once. Because of her awesome service and the fact that she could have turned the table at least once if not twice during our stay, we made sure to take that into account when we left her tip. Thanks again to Mallory for the awesome service and to Blake for coming over to offer to cover any costs incurred by the minor mishap. It's things like this that keep me coming back to the Bartlett Moretti's whenever I'm in town!!

Good for large groups but otherwise there are better options. Food- Started off with some appies- mozzarella sticks and spinach and artichoke chips. The mozzarella sticks were decent enough but the marina sauce was very chunky and didn't coat the stick like it's supposed to. The spinach and artichoke chip was pretty good, I'm pretty sure it was fresh, if not they spruced it up enough to where it makes a good appetizer. The chips were not homemade but they added some seasoning to them that made them taste a little bit more restaurant quality. For dinner I had the tour of Tuscany, which came with three different entree samples. First thing on there was the ziti pasta. This was a highlight of the plate, a highlight of the table really. Noodles were cooked well, and it came with fresh spinach, tomatoes and Italian sausage inside. The sauce it came in was a little soupy, but was good because you could soak it up with the garlic bread. Only complaint was there weren't a lot of noodles. Next sample was the eggplant Parmesan. The eggplant had decent flavor, but I think they cooked it with the sauce on because the inner eggplant was extremely mushy. The final sample was a chicken in garlic butter sauce. The chicken has nice flavor, but wasn't anything outstanding, a bit tough. Overall the food was average, two stars for the large venue. Service- service was standard, nothing special. Like I said I'd recommend to parties over 10 but otherwise I think there's better options.
(2)Jim B.
Thanks so much, Moretti's and especially Cruz, for making Mom's 80th birthday lunch so fantastic!!!
(5)John G.
Consistent! We know what we are getting each time. Dinners are very good as is the pizza. Not on par with some of the small family owned Italian places for dinner entrees, but certainly above average. Staff is usually very attentive and great. Place is always packed, so thats a good sign. They are also a part of the United Mileage plus dining program. Put that all together and you get a repeat customer in me!
(4)Stewart G.
This is the second time in 14 months we used their Bartlett location for private parties in a banquet room. It is so easy when you work with professionals which they are. The food was great, the service was equally as great and our guests had a terrific time. Their management team and staff go all out to please. No request is too small to be handled promptly. And did I mention how good the food was? Thank you Moretti's
(5)Ginnee S.
My pizza is always piping hot when we get. Sometimes too hot to eat right away. I never order anything I didn't like . Great coupons. Great deals on eating in on Tuesday. Really nice employees. Thank you Tom , Desire, Cindy and the short older man whose name I haven't gotten but always has a smile no matter how cold. And definitely an asset to Morettis !
(5)Mark B.
Whenever I'm in town we always make it a point to hit Moretti's for some pizza. Of course, it helps that my parents frequent here on the weekly (for Tuesday's half-price pizza!) Decor: It's a pretty standard bar/restaurant inside but it does have a more homey feel than most other places. There is wood, stone, fire place(s)... it's nice. They have plenty of TVs that are always showing sports (and fail videos!) and they do cool things like football squares for Bears games. Bathroom: It is well lit and kept very clean. Staff: My parents have their favorite staff members, who are all fantastic and friendly, but everyone else is the same - smiles all around, friendly, and speedy! Food/Drink: We started with some beer specials, which are priced well, and we right for the pizza. Honestly, I don't know that I have had anything else there because the pizza so GOOD (thin crust is all I've ever had). But they have a pretty large menu so you really can't go wrong. Special note: for little kids they allow them to "make their own" pizza - my niece love it. Value: Their normal prices are standard and about what you'd expect. Their weekly deals cannot NOT be beat! I am a HUGE fan of Moretti's and will ALWAYS be coming back in the future.
(5)Manny F.
Ok so there is a lot going on here. I'll just hit you guys with a quick pros/cons list. Pros: Good food Fresh (especially the daily specials) The booze is cheap and the specials are plenty The place itself is clean with plenty of seating The service is good too. Prompt and accurate. The mac n cheese pizza!! Cons: Odd street entrance. If your going in the opposite directions you'll need to pull a youey and double back to find it. Next to caddilac ranch (don't even get me started)
(4)Azhar S.
Good place to eat and hang out. I had a wrap and some of their home made chips and it tasted good. Nothing I can see wrong with this place. Cost was also very fair. It a HUGE parking lot so you're gonna always find parking.
(4)Shealynn E.
It's always super cold in this place. The bar menu drinks suck. Very below mediocre. The staff admitted even. The catering is great. But the food is very mediocre for the most part.
(2)Nick H.
Wanted to meet my friend for dinner and we decided to try Moretti's. From the outside, it looks like a fun place! And when you walk in, the atmosphere was very inviting and open. We got seated right away and our waitress stopped by pretty quick. The menu is very extensive and has a wide range of options. We got a pepperoni thin crust pizza and an order of bruschetta. The pizza was pretty good, and the bruschetta was also quite nice. I'd say that neither was very unique or exceptional, but both were quite tasty. I think that we would definitely come back to try out the restaurant again.
(4)Kara B.
We come here often and enjoy the atmosphere- it's loud enough that we blend in with our two young boys. The kids like the "make your own pizza" and I like trying different sandwiches. The chicken avocado is one of my favorites. My husband usually gets a burger or pizza. The only downside is that sometimes the wait can be especially long and they don't take reservations.
(4)Sarah S.
Who knew you could eat healthy at Moretti's?! I sure didn't! But I now know that not only is it possible, but their healthy options taste delicious! My company orders from Moretti's all the time for Beer O Clock, have had a holiday lunch catered in and have had a happy hour there so I'm quite familiar with their food. I've loved everything I've tried from them but a standout for me in their catering menu is the Chicken Parmesan. Gooey goodness with some protein makes my belly smile. I hadn't ever been to the Bartlett location before and didn't even realize how many restaurants they have in Chicagoland. Answer is 7 by the way. Moretti's in Bartlett is adjacent to Cadillac Ranch - a line dancing club. If you eat at Moretti's, they give you a pass for Cadillac Ranch which will save you the $5 cover. We had a big party of 16 people and when I walked in the hostess directed me to exactly where our table was. Our server for the night was attentive and on top of everything for the table, she was great! I'm on a bit of a health kick right now and will make exceptions, for sure, but for the most part am trying to be good about what I eat. I ordered the Grilled Chicken & Avocado Club Wrap and Chips and our server had no issue with me ordering it without tomatoes. The wrap comes with grilled chicken & avocado (of course), bacon, lettuce, herb mayo and provolone cheese. It's a nice combination that tricks my mind into thinking I'm eating healthy but still keeps it real with the bacon & mayo. I enjoyed the wrap and everything in it went together well for a party in my mouth! I got two meals out of the dinner and it was just $8.99. Not too shabby at all! More importantly now, the beer! They don't have a wide variety of beer options and their craft options are pretty much non existent. I was able to score a pint of Goose Island Green Line for $5 but that's pretty much the full extent of craftiness they offer. On swill beer, not only can you get a pitcher but even better - a table tapper! It was just $18 for a Miller Lite table tapper and by our calculations we got about 10 pints out of it. Now that's a good deal. Plus of course we got to look really cool with that thing on our table.
(4)Christina C.
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! My boyfriend and I come here all the time. The girl at the front counter must see us from a mile away because right when we walk through the doors, she has two menus and booth all ready to go. I love coming to a restaurant and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Amazing customer service! Ooooh! And the food is great too! I recommend the shrimp diavolo for anyone who likes a little spice! Like I said, LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!
(5)Paul V.
Great pizza lots of wait time plan your trip accordingly seating in a large open room with barn feeling veg pizza best so far in Chicago area must visit place near ny area
(4)Jenna C.
Casual sports bar kind of feel more so than a romantic Italian restaurant feel. The food and drinks were all just okay, nothing special. The service was great, our waitress was fantastic - five stars for our waitress, three stars for the food.
(3)Jenna D.
Service, service, service... When will establishments realize that's what brings customers back?! Food can be just fine, but when you don't pair it with great service.. Bye bye. My 90 year old grandpa likes coming here and apparently it's one of the only places he doesn't complain about.. so I was more than willing to take him. We arrived, a party of 6, on a Saturday night to a pretty busy place (charity event going on next door, Bulls game on) so we expected to wait a little bit. The hostess originally told us 45 minutes to an hour. After about 40 minutes, they buzzed us that are table was ready. Knowing that we had a barely mobile senior citizen with us, they told us after we made our way up to the reception desk, that it was a mistake and that our table is not ready, but that it shouldn't be more than a few minutes. Okay, fine. 10 minutes go by.. We're still not seated. My poor grandpa was standing for all this time, anticipating that we'd be seated shortly. He was frustrated, tired and feeble from standing. There were no places for him to even sit down, nor was he offered a seat by any of the staff. My mom went up the reception desk to see if we can start our order, where she was rudely interrupted by the "star" of our evening, the little blonde hostess, who had the audacity to say to my mom, with a gleaming attitude, "no, but the table is all boxed up so as soon as they get up we'll clean it up for you.. At least you're NOT waiting an hour!" And walked away. Seriously? Who says that. This was after she and the other hostess were preoccupied with discussing their plans for later that evening, instead of doing her job. I said out loud, "wow, what great customer service skills this hostess has!", which caught the other hostess' attention, but she didn't even care. When we were finally seated, Josh took care of us very well and did so much for us. We ordered a pizza, grandpa got spaghetti, my mom got a burger that she really didn't care for as did my sister and my dad and I got the rib special. The ribs were okay. Overall, the waiter service was great, the food was average, but the hostess service killed our experience and we will not be back unless grandpa wants to go.
(2)Sue C.
First of all, the waitress asked us if we wanted bread. if the bread is free, they should just bring it. Nothing special, just a piece of French bread. We ordered a medium deep dish roast beef pizza, the tour of Tuscany, and a pasta with shrimp, sausage, and chicken. The pizza was nothing special had to much sauce for my liking, the roast beef on top tasted like it had freezer burn and the crust was tastless.. The tour of Tuscany includes baked ziti, very plain, the eggplant parmesan was very dry. It had hardly any sauce and the eggplant not much flavor. The chicken was Fabulous. This was the best part of the meal. The only problem is there was 3 of us splitting and the piece was small. The pasta dish was spicy. My husband likes spicy, so he ate it. I think the menu should indicate that this dish is spicy. We didn't have dessert. I kind of felt like I had paid to much for very bland food. There are way better places for pizza and pasta. Don"t let the amount of cars in the lot fool you. The place is very bland.
(2)Javier D.
The pizza is some of the best thin crust I have ever had in my life. I thoroughly enjoyed the Moretti Special and the humungous appetizer combo that came before it. my only regret is that I wish I lived closer to this gem of a pizza place. The Mac and cheese pizza was surprisingly good too. Great service!
(4)Stephane L.
Ordered late last night carry-out. First time trying. The BBQ PAN pizza had too much BBQ sauce (wiped some of it off) and the cheese/crust was overcooked. The Mac and Cheese pizza was missing the bacon and it tasted good enough. I feel like based on the ingredients tasting fresh (except the mac and cheese) we had a "MISS" when it came to the preparation. Wrote Bartlett restaurant and we'll see what happens. We would like to try it again because the photos on here look good but the bill was already $34 last night for those two small pizzas and nobody wants to eat the left-overs because it was just so so. (I actually picked up my cheese on the pizza and wiped half the BBQ sauce away there was so much. The sauce tasted good but wouldn't order that specific one again at least in PAN style.) And I disliked the burnt crust and overcooked cheese.
(3)Mark D.
You've gotta try their Macaroni & Cheese pizza. Whoever thought this up is a genius! I put hot sauce on mine. Very tasty sandwiches as well. Very fast delivery.
(4)Carl A.
Wow, ordered 2 pizzas for pickup and was told 30 mins. Arrived 30 mins later and waited 20 min for the teenage manager to tell me it will be another hour?! I know it was a busy time but don't lie to your customers! You lost 3 different customers with families... Add up that loss of revenue over a year over a couple of pizzas that you lied about. Picked up same pizza's at Taylor st pizza 20 min later... They will be getting our business from now on. Manager didn't even offer a reduction on the bill....

My only complaint about the location is that it's in a convenient place on lake street but that's my only complaint. The girlfriend wanted to try some new restaurants so after some research she found this place, and yesterday we decided to give it a try. First our server was good (josh), he was attentive and friendly. The food was really good from the French fries down to each of our meals. I recently went gluten free so finding a good tasting gluten free pizza is very hard, if not impossible. Well this place has not only an edible gluten free pizza but delicious. I will come here again for sure.

Good food. Bad service. The menus a little on the pricey side. Lots of tv's to watch your games on.

This place was so great! I would give it 10 stars if I could. We got seated very quickly and the booths were nice and comfy. Very chill and casual environment. Our waiter came to our table right away, and was very quick. We got some fresh warm bread brought to our table. We ordered fries for our appetizer and they were very tasty. Our meals came out pretty fast too. I ordered the gnocchi with vodka sauce which had a bold flavor and my boyfriend got a gluten free pizza and it was the best gluten free crust he has had since going on a gluten free diet recently. Our bill came and we were impressed with the prices. We got two beverages, bread, fries, pizza + 2 ingredients, and gnocchi for only $35!! We will come back again for sure. Fast and friendly service, high quality food for a reasonable price, what else do you need?

The build it yourself pizza was nice for the kids, they make a decent thin crust pizza overall (adult version). most of the other entree's were covered with oodles and oodles of cheese, if that's your thing, well you'll get the cheese in spades. i'd say a decent eggplant parm was overwhelmed by the cheese, did i mention it comes with cheese?!!? I should have taken a picture, it's Beer selection is fairly meh, can we get a nice craft brew as one of the choices? And no, dont't even try to tell me Fat Tire is craft brew. The server we had was new and seemed a bit sleepy or something, had a hard time getting an order done for 14 people -- management said it was because he was new (maybe you should have had a more experienced person working a large crowd?) So our meal, not surprisingly, took forever. He also mischarged us on a separate check and they already ran the credit card and refused to refund the error? Weird right? Offered a store credit instead; what is that about? Anyway, they finally just offered straight cash back after much complaining; they claim they can not offer refunds when they screw up, they have to go through their corporate office -- i don't get it. I think you can find a better brewpub. Unless you love cheese
