    My husband took me here for my birthday dinner last night and although the food was fine, the service was terrible. We ordered the sampler appetizer and a deep dish pizza. We also ordered a margarita on the rocks, which was very sweet, not strong at all. When finished, we ordered a cosmo - which we would not recommend at all. The cosmo had a strong lemon taste, we couldn't even drink it. We asked the waitress to bring out another margarita instead because the cosmo was so terrible and she said no. According to her South Elgin has a two drink per hour limit . We found it extremely hard to believe given that in past visits we've ordered multiple beers. She ended up taking the cosmo, replacing it with the margarita, but did it so rudely. This waitress rushed us out of the facility and told the table next to us that the kitchen had stopped cooking food - it was only 8pm. Her attitude was terrible, it was obvious she had other plans and didn't want to be there. I've lived in the area for over 20 years and won't be back.

    Placed $90 order for pickup and these people are too picky to accept electronic version of $5 off coupon (only accept hard copy)

    The service is ok but it is very slow, and the pizza is inconsistent. Sometimes it is good and others it is blah

    Great deep dish from a New Yorker's point of view. Come hungry ! Very filling. Nice flavor and a mix of marinara and tomatoes was awesome.

I don't know if they were short on staff or it is always like this, but please keep this in mind before you come. Don't come too hungry! We ordered an ice coffee, but it came with chocolate syrup and whipped cream. I'm not sure if it was wrong of me to expect a black iced coffee with a side of cream or milk... the iced coffee was extremely sweet. It tasted like chocolate milk. The waitress said they don't have plain ice coffee so I had to stick with hot coffee. The skillets were delicious! I liked how they overcooked the hash browns. I love them crunchy. If you like spice, I recommend the Azteca skillet. It was delicious. The crepes here were okay. We still ate it, but there was nothing special about it.

If you read it, it says for parties of 5 or larger, but there were only 2 of us. Also, not to mention, we waited 38 minutes for our breakfast to be delivered to our table after ordering it . I know exactly how long it was as I took a snap as soon as we arrived. Plus, I also had four cups of coffees before our food was even brought to the table. ***** BEWARE ***** There are so many breakfast options in the Elgin area, so we will just start frequenting the other ones.

Like most pizza places around here, you have to order one of the combination deals to not get beaten up on topping prices. Our go-to combos are either "The Monster" (for double dough crust), or "Sausage Supreme" for thin crust. They let us evenly swap out some toppings for others as needed. Sometimes the sauce is a tad off, but it is usually the right balance. It has that homemade type of taste that pairs nicely when you add fresh garlic. The crust on the double dough isn't the tastiest, it's a tad on the dry and flavorless side at times, yet there is just something about it that just goes so nicely with their sauce. They also have pretty tasty cheesy garlic bread, not a bad Italian beef, and I'm not sure if they still "officially" serve it, but I used to get the linguine which was surprisingly spicy for a pasta dish. They have a decent points system, and are usually generous with the 2 - 5 dollar off coupons. We like a few different types of pizza places, but we'll always come back here when I'm around. No one else around here is this solid all around. Thanks guys!

When I called I was very disappointed to hear they discontinued my staple, The Grinder on garlic toast. Oh well...I am flexible... I was exited about the chicken parmesan sandwich in garlic toast, we also ordered a chicken Alfredo, Italian beef and fries. To start with my chicken parmesan WAS NOT on garlic toast (which I paid extra for) the chicken was overcooked, dry and strips. Ate about three bites. The fries we under cooked and soggy and the chicken parmesan had NO flavor. Italian beef was neither good nor bad... Well, anyone can have an off day so I decided I would just stick to their pizza which historically had been delicious. Fast forward to today, I was returning for a 2.5 hour drive and thought I'd treat myself to a delicious pizza for today and preparing for tomorrows incoming snow storm. I picked the pizza up and headed home. Sadly, I should have checked it there before leaving...the bacon was all burnt (tasted burnt not just looked burnt). Yes, I did pick off most of the burnt bacon, but got $30+ for a picked up pizza that is not really ok with me ... beyond that the crust was soggy and I couldn't really pick up the pieces to eat them. It will be an extremely long time before I order or go there again. Makes me very sad as this used to be a staple of mine and it is SOOOO close to home. Good luck if you choose to give them a try...
