Pizza is very good. Special salad is really good Beef and sausage combo sandwich is a winner. About the only Iran that not so great is the wedding soup. Wait staff can be a little inconsistent but they get your food to you and it's hot. Original decor with plastic table cloths makes it a family friendly place. There is a room divide which opens up to a second dining room large enough for 50-60 people I've been coming here for 20 years and it's a good value. read more

I received a scratch off deck to Illinois for Christmas because I obviously love an adventure and trying new places. We chose a Rockford card and it was for a Pizza hop that no longer exists but instead it suggests checking out Gerry's. So that's what brought us here. As for the pizza.... It's just meh, not bad but not great either. I wish we would've ordered the extra thin crust bc I'm not here for the crust and love a good tavern style za! It arrived hot and was good but like I said not outstanding. While we waited for the pizza we had eggplant sticks with a side of marinara. These are ick! We had them at summerfest and was in hopes of something similar. These were not it! Beer was bottled or draft and they have a limited selection. No IPA. Clean establishment and friendly staff. Probably won't get back here but it was still a fun scratch off date night. read more

Never been here but the owners called me a dozen times, from different numbers, talked mad shit, and then text "Fuck You" when I hung up on them. Unless you like a side of jackassery with your shitty pizza, steer clear of this establishment. read more

I ordered the Meatza Pizza and it was absolutely delicious. The service was great and the atmosphere was perfect. Would recommend to a friend. read more

Read the reviews and was hoping for great tavern pizza here...but this was thicker than it appears in pictures and tasteless. The crust was crispy so that helped but the sauce was almost bitter. Topping were just okay but nothing great...had Lino's the night before and it was much better. Service was okay but not great either...certainly not on the friendly side. they forgot part of the order than looked at me like I was crazy for questioning it...after checking the receipt of my $100 order they went back to find the missing items on the shelf waiting. read more

While the pizza was fine, they sneakily add a 3.7% service charge on to our bill if you pay on a credit card. When we noticed noticed that the charge amount didn't match our bill, the woman pointed to a very small sign on the wall. This kind of hidden charge is enough for us to never return. Either let us know up front that you have a credit card surcharge or don't have one at all. read more

Hello Everyone, Gerry's pizza has some of the best Italian dishes. We had the everything pizza with a variety of meats, peppers and pineapples, for our appetizer, an order of sharable nachos w/ground beef. Both dishes were prepared fresh delicious and served hot. Cozy dinning experience with great customer service. read more

I purchased a dinner to go . a baked mostaccioli with Italian sausage and a chef salad . The pasta sauce tasted good. Service was reasonable but I received no receipt or kind greeting . (It was busy dinner time) still So kinda feeling I was over charged. Almost $32 . The menu I saw was cheaper.Prices have gone up Maybe the price changed. Customers were happy, property looked clean. A fare human being may give them a second chance. The business has a responsibility . As a paying customer I didn't feel comfortable eating the food. Maybe next time. read more

I come here for meetings with the Rock Valley Mustang Club the last few times or so I wasn't even asked if I wanted something to eat or drink? This place makes it a point to overcharge and put a gratuity on whatever you order (Example ) If you order a soda for $3.50 there's a $3.50 gratuity on your bill I've never seen anything like this? If your going to charge like this make darn sure your not waiting 49-50 minutes for a soda. read more

Great pizza If in the area give them a try We had the Chicken Broccoli pizza did not think I would like but it was real good Give them a try read more

Gerry's pizza was nice and inviting with Halloween decorations. The Alfredo chicken and broccoli pizza is amazing! Plus we got the yummy cheese garlic bread. They had the football games on too. When we are in town again we'll definitely go back. Our witness was good. She made sure our drinks were full and we had everything to enjoy our meal. read more

Horrific first time experience. They got the order wrong over the phone, no big deal. I was willing to drive the 25 minutes to exchange. But the manager insisted because they write the orders this is what was written and we got what we paid for. I explained I was from Roscoe which was a 25 minute drive ONE way. The manager proceeded to hang up the phone on me. I called 2 more times where I got hung up on the and the manager told me "don't even come back if you want your food to not be touched right". Basically threatening to contaminate my food. I called one last time where the receptionist (young girl) told me that it's okay for her to say that because she's the manager.. and she hung up. I drove the 25 min to drop the food off and get my refund. The owners happened to be there where at first they told me they know who it was.. and that they "tried to make it right". Hanging up the phone and threatening to contaminate my food is not my definition of making things right. He proceeded to give me my money and try his best to defend his employee who was obviously a family member. It's absolutely disgusting that any of this behavior could even be defended. It's obvious he didn't want to make a scene, but it's very upsetting when most of the time till the very end the managers the owners tried to make the customer the problem when they put in the wrong order and was a very simple fix. I am a wrestling coach and we do pizza parties all the time and we're willing to bring this place a lot of business. I could not believe this as a first time experience. read more

My fiancée and I were staying at the Red Roof Inn for the weekend and found ourselves craving some pizza. We got a cheese pizza from this place and it was pretty good- so good I had it for the next few days for leftovers. We will definitely be back to eat! Pizza was great. read more

Gerry's Pizza - a sign for a restaurant - Italian Near Me - Rockford, Illinois

5-star "Rockford" pizza. Doesn't hold a chance against Chicago staples Pizano's or Pequod's (and Lino's trumps Gerry's errday); But if you're stuck in I-90 [hotels] corridor this is the absolute MUST for late night eats -- at least it was some 6 years ago when I was there. Their sauce is adequate, but the crust and cheese (and perfect amount of greasy) make up for any shortcomings in marinara [maybe just more oily than fruity] imo. recommend: MEDIUM, Thin - Sausage and Cheese w mushrooms. read more

Gerry's Pizza - E. State St. & I-90 - Italian Near Me - Rockford, Illinois

Gerrys has been here forever. And I've been here all my life and never went. I am very happy I did! The pizza was so good, I loved the crust, it was light and buttery, not the normal heavy crust. Good drink selection. The inside is an old-school Italian restaurant, which I actually like a lot. And it is huge in there too! It adds character to the restaurant. I feel bad I never came here before. But I will be back to try more. We had a great waitress too! read more

Gerry's Pizza - I love their crust and the sauce too. - Italian Near Me - Rockford, Illinois

This is the gold standard for thin crust well done pizza. Coming all the way from the south. I ordered a traditional thin crust pepperoni with extra sauce and sauce to dip. Honestly some of the best sauce I've ever had. If I ever find myself within 2 hours of this place - I'll definitely detour. The area is t the greatest and the service is average - but man the secret is in the sauce!! read more

Gerry's was within walking distance, therefore I went a few times. This place rocks, the service is Great and the food is even better. Solid Itailan dishes from mostaccholi, Italian beef, and the pizza.The pizza blew me away. The spicy Italian Beef pizza has Hot Giardiniera all over it and it was my favorite until I ordered the Meatza with the giardiniera. That was one of the very best pizzas I have ever had. They have a lot of specialty pizzas, the Margherita tasted fresh, the basil, cheese and tomato all had a great flavor. I'm not sure which pizza I'd get the next time. So much good food. The ladies that greeted and or served us were very helpful and always on point. There are a lot of franchise pizza place around Rockford, I wouldn't mess with them. I would go to Gerry's again and again. read more

Gerry's Pizza - I got the meatza and had em add the hot giardiniera and it made an awesome pizza even better - Italian Near Me - Rockford, Illinois

The pizza wasn't as I expected. The crust was a little hard and tough. The sauce didn't have that taste the I personally like. Cheese was great with a lot of it! I stayed at the holiday inn express across the street and the delivery service was fast. I never stepped a foot in the place so can't tell you the Ambiance read more

Have been going to Gerry's Pizza for 18 years. This is not the same service of years gone by. Went with large family group as we usually have done. Orders did not come out perfectly but didn't take issue with that. Our waitress was good but the problem came when daughter of the owner could only answer questions with the word 'yep' to questions raised about charges. Our father paid his bill and questioned her attitude toward a paying customer and her answer to comment about losing a customer was 'yep' again. . Then she blew up, stormed off and screamed well I'm not going to get fired while other staff pointed out that she is the owners' daughter. The boss or owner came out justifying her behavior saying that we need to understand that this is just how the youth of today speaks. Newsflash...This is not acceptable and what is wrong with society and customer service today. Instead of apologizing for her erratic behavior it was justified. We will not be returning and sorry to say this whole situation could have been avoided by choosing to be customer focused and not using the word 'Yep'. As the old saying goes first generation builds a business, second generation keeps it going and the third generation will drive it into the ground. YEP! read more

This place been around before I was born and still puts out great pizzas. There is just something to say about their cheese and sauce that goes perfectly paired. I would say they have the best sausage of all the pizza places in the Stateline area. I have only tried their extra thin which is not cracker crust thin, but very well made. I think k someone was getting crazy while making the pizza tonight because we had a random piece of pineapple and a random piece of black olive on one of our pizzas. But it was so good who cares? read more

I had the beef sandwich with melted cheese. The waitress said it was better than Portillo's, but I have to disagree. Gerry's sandwich was good, but tasted more like a traditional roast beef or chipped beef sandwich. It was served on a hard hoagie roll vs a french bread like loaf at Portillo's. Gerry's is located just off the busy E State Street highway. It is a large restaurant and caters to the locals. The service was pleasant but slow. Next time I will probably try their pizza. My ticket before tip was $12.46. read more

It's easy to see why this place has been open since 1978! The food was delicious. The pizza is exactly what I'd expect from this type of pizza place. The meat and cheese were balanced perfectly with the sauce. The crust was a little thicker than I'd expected, but it was still very good! All in all, a solid place for real Chicago style tavern pizza! read more

Might be the best pizza in Rockford. I was working in Byron here over the last few weeks and have had a chance with a pal to dine out often. Was here recently, place was mobbed but on a weekend. Service was slow but expected cause it was busy and a kids sports team was having a team meal. (Like a group of 40-50 kids and parents) but that was in a separate room, the main dining room was very busy and we had the bbq chicken pizza. Excellent thin cracker crust, toppings fresh, piping hot when it came out. Worth every penny. In fact, it was a yummy lunch the next day for me at work. Leftovers microwaved nicely . Do order here, best pizza in the area read more

Good pizza, good service, friendly little casual spot. I would go back again. I wouldn't get the cannolis again tho.

Gerry's is yummy! Has late night food too which I'm a huge fan of! Rockford doesn't offer much after 10pm so Gerry's is a go to!

We ordered pizza and pasta from here tonight for the first time. We drove 20 min to pick it up, when we got it home and opened the boxes the one pizza was not what we ordered. We called and spoke to a man who said he can make it again, he then put a manager on the phone who clearly has never been told the customer is always right and told us that they aren't in the wrong and we messed up, she also told us that if we wanted they can make the food again but she can't promise they won't spit in it!!!! She then hung up on us, we called back and talked to a young girl who wouldn't give us the managers name and told us that since she is the manger she has the right to hang up on us. We drove back there to return all the food and the owner who they claimed wasn't there cane to the front desk and said that he doesn't know what happened but will talk to his people and refunded our money. Needless to say I have it one star because it is making me read more

I have driven past this place so many time and honestly never thought much of it. One day I gave them a shot and have ordered several times since then. The food is decent, prices are reasonable and they give you a lot for your money. read more

Gerry's came highly recommended by the hotel. However, it was a big disappointment. I ordered the lobster ravioli but could only taste the lobster in one ravioli. I also ordered the special salad. One word = disgusting. The lettuce looked and tasted like it had been sitting in the refrigerator with the salad dressing on it for days. I picked out the egg and cherry tomatoes and threw the rest away There was nothing special about this salad.On the positive side, the deep fried mushrooms were really good. read more

Fantastic, I eat here a lot, they are always willing to make whatever I want and add or subtract items. The food is awesome. Thank for treating me like family. read more

I am from out of town and I was craving pizza and wanted something different from Pizza Hut. I saw this place and decided to give it a try and I was not disappointed. The pizza was delicious and the salad was too. My waitress was very kind and friendly. I enjoyed my meal and if I am ever in the area again I will definitely stop in. Thank you for a delicious meal! read more

Gerry's is a good local Italian place Since we had a craving for good Italian food, my wife and I went to lunch to another restaurant off Harrison - we were both disappointed (Could easily have made better at home) Gerry's did not disappoint. The food was good and the service was good and friendly. We'll be back whenever we're in town read more

I thought for sure I had reviewed this place months ago, when I visited, but apparently it slipped my mind. Sorry, Gerry. I was in Rockford for work, and by the time I got done with work, all the places I was looking forward to eating were closed. So I opened up Yelp to see what restaurants were open late. Gerry's came up, and had great reviews. Gerry's it is! I already like them for being open until ~1am every night. I got a large pizza and a pasta dish. Every time I try a new local place, I always ask the workers what their favorite dish is, and if there's a consensus or a rave review, try that. In this case it was the Chicken & Broccoli Olio. The pizza was great. Fresh ingredients, well seasoned sausage, not overdone cheese. Probably the best Chicago style thin crust I've had in Rockford, tied with Macianos (and maybe Capri). The Olio was literally chicken, broccoli, and spaghetti in an oil/butter sauce. It was good, and you could taste the fresh ingredients, especially the garlic, but I needed more flavor from the sauce. I wish we had a Gerry's here! They'd be my go to pizza place! read more
