    Came in for lunch thinking this would be a quick in-and-out spot... nope. Ended up spending just under 2 hours there. We ordered the Italian beef, pizza slice, potato wedges, and Sunday cheese stick. It was pretty obvious they were understaffed, and the place felt disorganized and messy. The highlights were definitely the potato wedges and cheese stick--both were really good. The Italian beef had good flavor thanks to the spicy giardiniera, but it came out lukewarm, like it has been sitting out. The pizza slice was just okay. Giving it 1 star mainly for the wedges and cheese sticks but definitely not worth the wait.

    I had an awesome experience at Frato's! The staff was super friendly and welcoming, the pizza was absolutely amazing, and the slot machines made it even more fun. If you're looking for great food and a great atmosphere, I definitely recommend checking it out. The pizza was seriously awesome!

    I haven't been to Fratos in a while so I decided to order a few pizzas on a Friday night. I have a BOGO Free Specialty pizza so decided to try their Big and Meaty and I'm Fat Pizza. Ordering on their website is cumbersome but for a free pizza,I put up with it .lol The Big and Meaty was loaded with Applewood Smoked Bacon, Canadian Bacon,Fratos Specialty Sausage,and aged Pepperoni. Lots of flavor but lacking enough sauce in my opinion. The I'm Fat Pizza with BBQ Pulled Pork was layered with Whiskey BBQ Mac and Cheese. This pizza is a collaboration with the I'm Fat Podcast. Absolutely delicious but again could have used more sauce. Their pizzas are unique and very flavorful. Check out their website as they also offer some great burger combinations along with wings and other appetizers.

    Food was aight but this establishment gonna run out of water due to their AI generated decorations. There were pictures of superheroes with their deranged hands digging into pizzas with unidentifiable toppings.. Yuck! Next time pay a real artist, losers. P.S. the rosemary lemonade was nast, yo

    Food was good. They had RC soda and 7Up, my favorites. The mozzarella sticks are awesome. Really long cheese pulls and breading was done well. Pizza was good too. Felt bad, looked like there was only 3 people working and a ton of people showed up 1 group after another.

    Amazing service from the crew! And great food. We had a great time with fam and friends. Fun little pizza place! Must try

    WHAT AN AMAZING HANGOUT RESTAURANT! The food was HUGE. We are big backs! But THIS we had trouble finishing. Wanted to get the 13" mozzarella sticks but found out they were only on Sundays. Tried their regular mozzarella sticks and omg they were still huge! Almost choked on one but man that cheese pull satisfying! They weren't too dough-y, not too cheesy, and the crunch was perfect. Their pizza slices were big as my head and trust, I got a cinema sized forehead, that's how big their slices are. The service was truly something. They were helpful, inviting, kind, funny. Honestly if they weren't working we would've invited them to hang with us, respectfully of course. If this amount of glazing wasn't enough, the place was so fun to just hangout, play some of their table games, and chat. I will definitely come back.

    I have a good time gambling at the slot machines then enjoy a slice of pizza a good experience with the staff there and good pricing overall.

    Special Pizza Slice
    Edward M.

    Lack luster food, service, and casino dark ambiance for a high price Food sounds really good and special but the execution is just not there. I had the special slice of the day, it's 1 lb, sure but it's mostly crust My friend had a burger, my tiny cup was the same size as the burger and it was not cheap Friend had a salmon bowl, it's salmon you use for a salmon burger, not whole salmon Other friend had a chicken bowl, that one was actually good looking and tender, the only one of us that said we would order the same thing again. I recommend you pass and look for some other family place that is cheaper and isn't super dark inside and has better food

    Great food. Mozzarella sticks are amazing and they are always reinventing their menu. Highly recommended.

    Place sucks. Food is trash and so is their mozz sticks. Hamburgers are dry and it's more of a front for slots. Stay away

    ​Out at Woodfield Mall, we tried City Works based on a Google Maps suggestion. It's a large,…read morecorporate, upscale dining spot. If you're a beer drinker, they have a massive selection on tap (about 90 taps--and no, that's not a typo!). They also have a large patio that looks like a great spot when the weather is nice. Inside, there's a good mix of low-tops, high-tops, banquettes, and booths. All the tabletops feature copper tops with wood trim, and exposure to water and food over time has given each table a unique patina. ​We arrived right as they were switching over from the brunch menu to dinner, and the staff made us feel very welcome. ​What We Ordered: ​Smoked Brisket Reuben Eggrolls: We ordered these special eggrolls for the table. My friend has a shellfish allergy, and since many traditional eggrolls contain shrimp, he was excited to try these. He said they were the best eggrolls he's ever had (though he admitted he doesn't eat them often!). He paired it with a Guinness Zero non-alcoholic draught and was amazed by how close it tasted to the original. ​Fish Tacos ($19): Recommended by another reviewer, these come with three cornmeal-battered, fried Mahi-Mahi tacos topped with cilantro lime cream and fresh micro cilantro. They were crispy and very tasty. If you're usually sensitive to cilantro, you might still enjoy these--I mostly tasted a bright, lemony freshness rather than heavy cilantro. ​Sides (Broccoli Rabe & Asparagus): I substituted chips for a vegetable side. Due to a mix-up in the kitchen, I got to try the broccoli rabe first, though it turned out way too spicy for anyone at our table. My actual order was asparagus--my absolute favorite--but it was a bit disappointing, as the bottom half of each stalk was woody and fibrous. ​Fish & Chips ($21.50): My friend went with this traditional entry. At that price point, he was expecting three fillets, but he couldn't finish the two that were served and took some home. Overall, a solid entrée. ​Classic Breakfast ($15.50): My husband got this from the brunch menu. He was very pleased with the scrambled eggs, potatoes, thick-sliced bacon, and sausage links. ​Overall, a solid visit with great variety on the menu!

    This was a great pop in!! They have alot of restaurants in the area but this one has a rather…read moreunique menu so that drew me in. It is located in an easy to find area however the parking lot fills up pretty fast being that it's connected to a hotel. The restaurant was very clean inside and outside. All the staff was friendly from the hostess to the waitstaff was friendly. As far as s be beverages go, they definitely have something for everyone. They offer lot on tap, mixed drinks and mocktail/NA options which o always think is great. For the food, let's talk a bout the food!!!!! Those crab rangoon mozzarella sticks was a favorite for sure. They were a. Ice size, very crispy and the filling was top tier. Don't let me get started on that dipping sauce! 10/10 must try again. We also tried the loaded tater tots which were also delicious. For meals, we tried the bacon cheeseburger which was cooked to perfection but needed some seasoning. We also tried the fish tacos which were amazing. I would visit again.
