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.
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.

I was in the Rockford/Loves Park area staying at the Holiday Inn Express in town and stumbled across this gem of a restaurant thanks to the other positive yelp reviews. In my 5 day stay in town I managed to order 'delivery' 3 of my 5 days. Everything I tried from the Cheesy Beef sandwich, pizza and penne with alfredo sauce was AMAZING! One thing I noticed was the friendliness of the staff from ordering, delivery and even making sure the things that other places tend to forget such as forks and napkins were in my delivery when the food arrive. Nothing worse than trying to eat penne with alfredo or a salad without a fork when you are staying at a hotel. Wish I had a place like this near my home in Idaho, but now I have something to look forward to when I return to the area next year. Don't wait, just order some deliciousness from this place! :)

This is a must stop if your looking for good pizza and who doesn't love $2 premium beers

Go here confidently, you won't be disappointed. Delicious deep dish pizza. I think it's better than the Chicago heavy-hitter chains personally. We got a 14 in deep dish with sausage and it easily fed 4 ppl, with 3 pieces left over. Best part was it was under $20.

Best Italian beef my wife has ever had she said and she LOVES Italian beef. The sweet green peppers really helped set it off. The pizza was good and the spaghetti was good. Too many times I leave Italian food places with salty tongue but everything was seasoned perfectly and tasty. Service was spot on. Very happy to have stopped in whole passing through and will do so again next time I'm in town.

All the food I've tried here is delicious. The pizza and cheesy italian beefs are my favorites no doubt. It is kind of small inside so we typically pick up or get delivery.

I live right down the street from here, and I is super convenient to get food from here... I haven't tried a lot of things here BUT everything I have tried is amazing. The ambiance of the restaurant is nice! While dining in I got the Italian beef sandwich with cheese and peppers, the portion size was huge and the sandwich was amazing. I had to take half of it home. Another time, I got spinach and cheese deep dish pizza and it was literally THE BEST DEEP DISH EVER and I am from Chicago, so I know good deep dish when I have it. The crust was perfect and didn't get soggy and there was the perfect amount of garlic and seasoning in the pizza. I would recommend this place for both dine in (cute for a date) and for take out.

Great pizza and the Italian Beef is out of this world! I will be going back for sure ever time I make it back to Loves Park!

My wife and I went and ordered a small pizza and a plate of pasta to split between the two of us. The pizza was good, but the server forgot to put the pasta order in, so when my wife asked about it she said it was almost ready. It came out watery, and they just threw a pile of bread crumbs on top of it instead of breading the scallops like the menu said. I'd give it another try though, atmosphere was good, and it could have just been a one off mistake.

My go to Italian restaurant in Rockford. Never had a bad meal here. The Meat Classic thin crust Pizza is amazing, and although I'm sure that each slice goes straight to my coronary arteries - I can hardly wait to get it again.
(5)Kathy L.
I've eaten here many times and never been disappointed. The service is friendly and attentive. The chicken Parmesan on angel hair pasta is amazing. Also the Italian beef with green peppers is outstanding. Both restaurants are great value for the price

Came here for my birthday dinner with friends, trying to get some good deep dish pizza but skip the pandemonium of Girodano's. Great choice! We were seated right away and the staff was attentive and friendly. Cozy atmosphere, though a bit drafty since this place is in a storefront in a strip mall, so anytime anyone came through the door it was chilly. But our food was reasonably priced and amazingly delicious. We ended up getting pan crust pizza instead of deep dish, and the crust was unique. Very thick and bread-like, like nothing I've had before. The pan pizza was very thick overall, no skimping here. We had bacon and mushroom, and the bacon was very generous. YUM. Big chunks! No complaints except for being a little chilly at times. Wish we could have stayed and chatted longer also, but no harm. Would come back again!

What a fantastic restaurant! I am visiting from out of town for several days, and thought I would give this a try based on the reviews. I was not disappointed. The pizza is great, and my server gave me a tip to order an 8 inch kids pizza instead of the larger 12 inch that's really better for two people. I added four meats and it was fantastic. I am definitely coming back. Highly recommended!
(5)Kim B.
The thin crust pizza is good and I loved the bread sticks appetizer, the dining room is cramped and there is no waiting room so call ahead. The staff was good and came quickly, looks like they have a healthy take out business.

Full review: So Macianos has become a "Friday night and no kids" regular. I love their Chicken Florentine. Love it. The chocolate cake pieces are big enough that two people can split a splice. Holy cow- you need to try the chocolate cake. It is a little pricy, but you would spend more if you go out and get drinks with your food than you will having them deliver. My favorite place to have dinner delivery! _____________________ It was good. Had a few appetizers but honestly, I had great company so I wasn't too focused on the food. I need to eat there again before I can give it a full review!

Pizza, service and atmosphere are great! We go to both locations and have always had a nice evening!

GREAT STAFF. Friendly people. Cool place. Nice concept. I am sure this is a well run and well appreciated local restaurant. However.... I should of had the pizza.... I had the Chicken Marsala. The best part of the meal was the garlic bread. Bland noodles covered with a gravy of questionable light color, canned or jarred mushrooms with a Shake-n-Bake type coating on a piece of chicken. Sorry - it was just not happening tonight.

Our party of 4 arrived on a Sunday evening and all of their 8 tables were full. There was one couple waiting in front of us and the wait was 25 minutes. While we waited, we listened to Sinatra and the talking/laughter of the patrons. Two tables opened up at the same time. The couple grabbed the bigger table and we got the smaller one. We ordered the calamari appetizer and two thin crust pizzas. How would all this fit on a small table? The calamari came out 5 minutes after we ordered it. The calamari was seasoned with salt and pepper. We squeezed lemon on it and added parmesan. The calamari here is one of the better ones in Rockford. The pizzas arrived 10 minutes later and both were very good. The thin crust was buttery and held up easily to all the sauce and toppings. Overall, the service, food and ambiance were good. There is no wifi. We'll be back.

Macianos. . your pizza is so good. . . so tasty. . . and you're one of the few pizza chains i actually like. I used to only order the pan pizza from here but even their normal crust is deeeee-licious. i'm not a fan of the breadsticks or that but the pizza and the chicken parmesan keep me coming back. never had a bad pizza from here. if you get a bad pizza, it's probably because they don't like you.

While traveling, we found Maciano's on Yelp. The pizza was really pretty good. The thin crust was crispy but tender. They use a nice amount of spice in both the cheese and the sauce. Ordering online was easy and the pie was ready on time.

The perfect cracker-like thin crust.

Great food every time!! Never been dissapointed with any item on the menu. They also have a location on Harrizon Avenue in Rockford.
(5)Michelle R.
Everything I've ever had here is good.. Right now I'm eating a spicy chicken cesar sandwich and it is yummy! I have to say though that the penne alla maciano is my favorite....well, and the chicken cesar salad :) You're doing a great job guys!!

There is a lot of Italian places in Rockford, and this one is as good or better than any of them. This place has the best fettuccine Alfredo (the sauce is amazing, much better than Olive Garden's). I have ordered the lasagna and a few of the other pasta dishes and I have never been disappointed. As far as the pizza goes it is great. I won't go anywhere else. They have great sauce and they have a crust called double dough that is pretty good if you are tired of other places options of ultra thin or super thick crusts. The service here is great and I love the atmosphere. I know it's a chain but it doesn't feel like it. If you are looking for the ultra-smooth luxury Italian place for your hot date then you should go to Francesco's, but if you are looking for some great food at an easygoing atmosphere then this is your place.
