As with my past visits, Service is on point very attentive and is quick for the refills on water and soft drinks. They also have a good selection of craft beer and even though it's May they had a nice imperial stout on tap from dragons milk very tasty highly recommended. I ended up ordering our usual three meat. Pizza can't go wrong with the pepperoni the sausage and they're wonderful meatballs. We also got the Bardo appetizer platter since it has something for everybody on it. And to go, I ended up getting the breaded steak sandwich, which is on garlic bread very good. Highly recommended if you're in the area. read more

The food is honestly amazing. I've tried quite a few things on the menu and haven't really been disappointed, but my absolute favorite has to be the Cobb salad with crispy chicken. So flavorful and always hits every time. Great family place read more

Everything about this restaurant is great The staff makes you feel like you're among friends. The owners take pride in service and are often seen on the floor talking to their customers. The food is fantastic and that's why they have such a big following and thriving business. read more

Bartolini's - This place is awesome (free WiFi), Great Deep dish pizza - Pizza Near Me - Midlothian, Illinois

Friendly, good service, a little loud but great food. This is the place where you can bring your whole family and enjoy those special occasions. Just had my granddaughter's 21st birthday party there and saw her order her first legal drink. read more

Today, I stopped by this place that I have never tried before. With a little Yelp research, I discovered that one of the owners attended the prestigious Culinary Institute of America (CIA). Reviews raved about the delicious meatballs. These were two very good reasons why I needed to stop in and try the food. As I pulled up to the almost completely full parking lot midday, I took this as a good sign. I enjoyed the flavorful chicken dumpling soup. Next up was a meatball sandwich which was good, but not great. There are plenty of good restaurants in the greater Chicago area that make delicious Italian style meatballs, like Calabria Imports in the Beverly neighborhood just a few miles away. The sandwich was good, but I guess I was expecting better. I also ordered the beer battered fried cod dinner which I thought was disappointing. I love cod when its fresh with a quick fry with a good batter and delicious fries. The fish was on the tasteless side, and the batter was only okay. The pieces looked like they were evenly cut into triangles like the factory sort you would find in a freezer section at your local grocery store. As for the fries, they were even more disappointing, just like the fish they were tasteless and cold. This should have been something very easy to prepare. Also, the tartar sauce didn't taste not freshly made. It was the sort you pull off of a shelf in a grocery store shelf, something I never buy. One place that comes to mind that does this right is the Gage restaurant on Michigan Avenue across from Millenium Park. I ended my meal with some in house made tiramisu which was okay. Will I come back? At this very moment I can't honestly say, because as they say, first impressions are the most lasting. read more

Love their friendly atmosphere! Met the owners! Pizza is tops! Veer nuggets are the best too! Cannot wait to go back for more to try!

We came all the way from California after seeing a TikTok video on the deep dish. The restaurant invited us to make reservations and here we are. When we walked in we were greeted by the kindest hostesses and the owner Chris immediately came to our table to welcome us. He was so kind and just a wonderful soul. We ordered the deep dish, an appetizer meatball and Chris complimented us with the BEST cheesecake ever. The food was AMAZING, the cheese the pull the SAUCE to DIE FOR! I highly recommend BARTOLINI. If I lived here I would be enjoying this restaurant weekly. Heavenly Father, continue to Bless Chris and his brother and this restaurant establishment. They are what is needed to help heal this broken world. May their business prosper and be a growing staple in their community. May they continue to be the light in this dark world. May you bless each family that enters this restaurant when they walk out they feel the love from each person that works there. I pray prosperity over BARTOLINI. In Jesus Name. Amen. Thank you so much. We will be back. read more

Bartolini's - The best coleslaw I have ever had. - Pizza Near Me - Midlothian, Illinois

Good food, good service, friendly staff. We've been going here for decades. It's a decent place to sit down and have some food and drinks. Their craft beer menu is definitely well above average for the local restaurants. Nice neighborhood spot owned by locals. Not a chain. Would recommend. read more

Bartolini Restaurant is a true gem that offers an exceptional dining experience. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the tone for a memorable meal. The menu is a delightful blend of Italian and American cuisine, featuring standout dishes like their famous meatball sandwiches, deep-dish pizza, and homemade dessert. I enjoyed the gumbo! No pork and adding a dash of pepper I loved it! For most it's spicy enough! My fries were hot and salad had anchovies!!! They have a burgers with an outside patio area and one arm bandits in the back! So if you bring your kids watch them. They can get busy but I likeD it when I can have a private party all to myself in the afternoon. The staff is attentive and friendly, ensuring that every guest feels valued and cared for. Whether you're enjoying a casual lunch or celebrating a special occasion, Bartolini's delivers with impeccable service and mouthwatering flavors. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction shines through in every bite. read more

I have been to bartolini several times but this recent time I was not impressed with the food. The pizza seemed to be very dry and the Caesar salad seemed like it was very wilted! I ordered a dinner salad but it seems like it was enough for just a side salad. Don't know if I will come back to this place. read more

Nice bar! Next time we will get food but only have 30 mins til softball game starts. Wanted everyone to know there is a bar here. read more

Bartolini's - Breaded steak sandwich. - Pizza Near Me - Midlothian, Illinois

Hands down the best pizza in the south suburbs. The sauce (gravy, as they call it) is perfect, full of flavor and not overly sweet like a bunch of other spots. I also highly recommend you try their bruschetta, they serve it with garlic bread that is FANTASTIC. Their new location is also really nice, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available within walking distance of the train station! read more

The boys don't mess around here! This has been a longstanding local favorite of ours, and we're here at least a few times a month. PERFECT bruschetta, generous portions of incredible pastas, meatballs that are nothing short of decadent, and even the fried chicken is exquisite--flavorful, crispy, and JUICY. He loves the steak sandwiches, and don't even get me started on the calzones, which are absolutely worth the wait (order‑ahead options available). Long ago, when they were just starting out, a waitress was so swamped she forgot to put in our order. It was getting close to closing time, and one of the owners noticed. He came out, was extremely apologetic, and had a rush put on our food. They made it to go and didn't charge us a dime. That was the moment I knew these guys were going to succeed. One of our absolute favorite places to eat, and their new location is just right--classy casual, modern, down‑to‑earth, yet somehow out of this world. read more

First timers! We were gifted a gift card from our neighbors & decided to try it out. Service & Food both amazing. Ambiance was great, not too loud where we couldn't hear one another speak. Will def be back!! read more

Excellent food as always including the best fried chicken in the Chicagoland area. The mini-meatball appetizer is to die for and the #5 Southside Irish beer is the best amber on tap around. The new digs are beautiful and the service is great. read more

Great service. Outstanding Italian food. Indoor/Outdoor seating options. Good old fashioned warm Italian Restaurant!

Just a fantastic place to stop about one mile away from 294/57. Food is great...beer nuggets, meatball appetizer, pizza, pasta, paninis have all been family favorites. Service is great, well attended and the owner is always around chatting tables up. Prices may seem a little high but expect everything you get to be two meals and bring plenty of leftovers home. read more

My recent catering order was flawless, and the party guests loved the food! We went with 2 salads, pan of cheese lasagna, tray of mini meatballs, and fried chicken. The house made giardinara was the perfect touch! SOOO GOOOOD! Thanks Bartolini's! You knocked it out of the park! read more

Soooo I did an incredible review some time ago. But when the food is this good? WTH I'll tell you again... been eating here since 1998 and NEVER had a bad meal. They serve everything except steak and lobster. But seriously, whether you want a Polish, burger, pizza or fresh pasta and fresh salad... it's here and it's GOOD read more

What can I say? Just another excellent dinner at Bartolini's... We started with the beer nuggets (of course), then ordered the meatball sandwich and the cod dinner, and topped the night off with the ice cream cookie sundae. Throw in a few drinks and it was a perfect meal. read more

They have a great meatball sandwich. I love meatball sandwiches. I still live close to Ogden Avenue in grand Avenue It was all Italians around there. They made a great beef in that area too. They give you a choice of fries, potato chips, or coleslaw fries aren't that good the coleslaw was really good when my daughter gets back from New York. I will probably take her there for dinner. read more

As always the food was delicious. We also highly recommend ordering from gold belly if you live out of town. Everything thing we have ordered is always of top notch quality read more

Do I recommend Bartolini's?? of course the best tasting pizza in the south suburbs service is impeccable. I used to be a fan of Giordano's, but not anymore. Sausage and cheese is great. Spinach is great. Calzones are great and they'll customize your pizza for you and your cow if you don't like cheese you don't have to have cheese. read more

It's been at least ten years since I've been to Bardolinos; they have since moved to a newly renovated location nearby. I ordered a Dewars White Label Scotch on the rocks with a lemon twist with just a little ice; the waitress returned in a few minutes with a glass overflowing with ice cubes spilling over the side. My sister ordered a Diet Coke; after a few minutes, I asked her if she would drink her drink, but she said it had an odd taste, so I tried it. It was way too sweet with a "metallic" taste. We waited a few minutes to order an appetizer. We chose the mini meatballs., I can't believe how many meatballs are in order; I'd say at least close to twenty with delicious marinara sauce and a good amount of Mozzarella on top (we both took home four home each}. I ordered the Meat Lasagna, which was huge. It was good except for the Marinara Sauce, which was too thick and pasty, with too much tomato paste, and nowhere near as good as the sauce with the Meatball Appetizer, which was right on the money. My sister ordered the Chicken Bruschetta, a chicken breast bruschetta on top, mashed potatoes, and a seasonal vegetable. My sister didn't care for it all; it was bland, and the potatoes looked like they came out of a box, not fluffy. We passed on the coffee and dessert. If I did go back, I would stick with the pizzas and Italian sandwiches. read more

First off I have never had a bad meal here. I have gone out of my way to eat here sometimes driving 100 miles or more in my meal planning. Yes I drive a truck. The staff treats you like family. Some of them I have known since they were young. Recently I have started ordering off the weekly specials menu and finding new favorites. Chris and Dom keep up the excellent family friendly service long into the future. read more

I catered my son's graduation party from here. It was awesome! From the person who took my order to the delivery person, the customer service was top notch! The food was soooo good, Italian American comfort food, arrived promptly, hot with all the cutlery, napkins and plates. I will definitely recommend Bartolini's for any large group of people, they do not skimp out. We ordered for 25, 25 ate, and we only made it through half of the food! Good thing it makes for great left overs ;) read more

The food was delicious!! I had a Calzone with Sausage and Mushrooms that was extremely tasty! I also had a slice of pizza with sausage,onions and sweet peppers. It was tasty too! The service was kind and prompt. I will be visiting Bartolini's again. read more

The food is fantastic! Pizza is bomb and the pasta is huge portions for a very fair price. Their red sauce is great on everything. We had a reservation. It's a really nice place but it is very LOUD. My parents are a little older and we couldn't have a conversation because we were actually shouting at each other. They need to install the sound absorbing foam because it's not really a place for a date or family dinner. Our server was terrible but the staff helps each other and we got our refills, dessert and Togo containers from different people. We actually only talked to the server 2 time the whole dinner. She didn't even pick up the bill but jokes on her because we tipped her like crap and I'm a good tipper. I'll definitely go back but maybe not on a weekend night because of how loud it is. read more

Everything is great!! The pizza is amazing and the service and servers are awesome. Definitely recommend!!

This review is for two visits The first visit we went here with a party of eight for lunch at their new location. Everyone ordered something different from pizzas to dinners and all was enjoyed. The server was very nice and attentive. She also filled our drinks without us asking. Oh btw their meatballs were awesome and well worth the trip. Also they have great chicken dumpling soup. Second visit was for a carry out based on the food from our first visit. This visit had a hiccup as when I was walking in my phone was ringing. It was the owner calling to tell me they had an issue with the oven which was evident from the smell. He offered me anything but pizza so I got a dinner instead. He was very apologetic and handled as a good business owner should, others should take note. This gave me an opportunity to see their kitchen which was very clean and the crew worked as a team in back. read more
