I ate there today. I ordered seafood risotto. It was $28 a real waste of money. I asked the waitress before the order. If it was a plentiful dish, she says yeah it was, when the dish came I had three baby scallops and three tiny shrimp with a cup of rice risotto dish that would cost five dollars to make will never eat there again. We'll be going to. Olive Garden from now on much better. read more

I highly recommend. Although it's small it has a charming atmosphere, the food is incredible and tasty. The staff and servers are wonderful.

The ambiance was nice but the food was horrible. Salty, salty and more salt. Everything from the soup to the entrees - you could only taste salt. And our daughter's lassgne had no ricotta cheese. I have no idea where their chef was trained, but they seriously need help with the quality of the food. read more

My first time at IPK and the food was delicious. I had the lasagna and it had plenty of cheese and marinara sauce. The flavor was great and a generous portion. The waitress was friendly and efficient bringing refills for our drinks without being asked. We had the tiramisu for dessert and it was excellent. We will definitely be coming back in the future. read more

3.9-Stars- food Pizza is edible / good Soup to oily for me Salad is good and big 2.9-Service- The worst! They take so Long.. especially if your hungry 3.9- Ambience- is nice, clean. Overall if your hungry plan ahead.. this place. Not for you.. if your starving.. We went on a Monday dinner maybe that's why it was slow service ... but the place was packed.. probably because of slow service.. NEVER again on a weeknight at least.. Hire more help. Overall just order it to go! read more

Had dinner here tonight, the food was really horrible, my wife and I both got pasta and is was flavorless. The linguine with chicken and broccoli was frozen broccoli florets and chicken essentially boiled in this flavorless white wine sauce, not even an evident piece of garlic. The shrimp Diavlo was essentially the same shrimp boiled in flavorless spicy red sauce. Shame to spend $100 at dinner for flavorless food. read more

Amazing place the pizza will definitely make your mouth happy try it guarantee you will enjoy it. Yummy yummy. Boom!

The pizza is good, but so is the sandwiches like their beef sandwich and the chicken Parm are awesome read more

Went in to purchase food with a gift card that was purchased directly from them and was told "gift card system has been down since December; I can't take that". No disclaimer on the site, nothing mentioned when we called to order. Again, purchased a gift card directly from them that can't be used. How many people do you think that gift cards for Christmas? Isn't it ironic that they can't be used? This Business owns more than one business, they know what they're doing with this process! Go somewhere else! read more

The octopus was pretty hard and cold, not warm at all, but the flavor was very good. The rice in the arancini was white, it's sup to be yellow from saffron... but even though no saffron, they were very tasty and nice and hotttt! (Full blooded Sicilian over here) read more

Ok - now I'd passed this place on the way home from work a few times - nestled between train tracks and Irving Park Rd, it looked like a gem in this nicely done up section of Roselle. So, hubby and I gave it a go one recent Saturday evening, and boy- did we EVER get a great welcome and fantastic service. We ordered a pepperoni pizza (and took our server's advice and had the pepperoni on the top of the pie and not in the middle) - we also got a shrimp linguine and bruschetta. The pizza- wow. Easily, easily, easily the best pizza we've had since moving to Schaumburg! The shrimp linguini - while my hub-hub enjoyed it, I was put off by the fishy-smelling/tasting shrimp (to me, that's a sign of not-so-fresh shrimp). The bruchetta- yummy indeed, and gives Lou Malnati's a run for their (bruschetta) money! We ended up with way too much food, so ended up taking heaps of it back home (which we promptly ate for lunch the next day!). Will we return? Lord yes! The pizza alone was to die for (well, not literally, but you know what I mean..... I hope). Even better was the ambience, the service, and did I mention the pizza (yet again)? Yes! read more

My brother bought a $100 gift card from this place for me for Christmas. Three times we have tried to use it and their system is "down." I call BS. This is stealing. DO NOT BUY A GIFT CARD FROM THESE CROOKS!!! read more

Disappointed in how they conduct business. They try to take advantage of you if you're drinking. Make sure you double check your receipts.

Can I give a 0 star rating? Ivette gave the worst service I have ever had. She was extremely rude, had an attitude, and does not deserve a job in the customer service industry. I will never return as long as Ivette is employed, and I know others feel the same as well. read more

This place was great! I stopped in on a Sunday basically right when they opened with my sister for some early lunch. They have their own parking lot and the place was really easy to find. We got to seat ourselves since we were the first ones in. The staff here is super bubbly, prompt and friendly! We were constantly being checked on and taken care of. The restaurant itself was very clean and new looking, too. The options are endless. They have so many appetizers and pasta dishes! I opted in for their chopped salad, one of the Italian Pizza Kitchen's recommended favorites. It was super filling and the chicken was so crispy and nicely seasoned. We also had mimosas which are $5 on Sundays (a steal!) My sister liked her tortellini but said the tortellini were hard. After I tried one I agreed with her, but we both enjoyed the sauce. Everything was reasonable priced. I would return for drinks and try other pastas and apps that they have! read more

10/10 food was delicious and tasted more authentic than most Italian restaurants. The service was amazing, shout out Katie for helping us picking our entrees. The gnocchi and tortellini were delicious and the tiramisu was on point. The ambience made me feel like I was home with my Italian family enjoying a homemade meal. Highly recommend!! read more

Stopped in for lunch and I cannot praise IPK enough. Had the bacon bleu burger and my wife had the salmon salad . Both entrees were fantastic . Service was excellent . Lunch came out hot . Good beer and wine selection with martinis on special. Great value for the money . read more

I just moved here a couple years ago, but my health has gotten better. (MS) I've now been here three times and plan to return some more. The pizza was fantastic and worth the price. It's not too much at all, especially for the quality. My last visit I forget the name but it was meat with noodles. I took a picture after I mixed it all I'll show below. You won't go wrong visiting. PS there's a back way out so you don't have to get on 19 again. read more

Me and my sister were looking for a dinner place. We met a friend in Itasca but the bar had to many people so we decided to get dinner somewhere else. We saw this place open late. It waa actually a good decision. The place, the service and most of all the food was great. Appetizers was half priced except for a few. Our Appetizers: CALAMARI - It was really good. Seasoned perfectly, you dont even need the sauce. PAZZO FRIES - Loaded with beef au jus, melted mozzarella, cheddar, and crispy smoked bacon. It was actually ok. If you like a loaded fries this would be good. I forgot the name of the MEATBALL appetizer we had but i do like it and it has 2 kinds of sauce. ENTREES CHICKEN MARSALAPlump boneless chicken breast sautéed with butter and mushrooms in a marsala wine sauce. Served over a bed of spaghetti. I didnt like it as much just because the chicken part was a breast part. If it was cooked with a thigh part it would have been perfect. GAMBO DI MIALE white marble farms pork shank, onions, mushrooms, garlic, and marsala demi This was actually my sister's order but it waa seriously so good and tender. I would go back and get this. read more

The service was good but the food wasn't at all. I don't understand how they are near a couple of good Italian restaurants in the same price range and serve so much trash ketup food. I was told to order was popular and it was just terrible. The staff was nice as most places. But the food isn't good. It's Olive Garden bad and maybe even that's better. People like the drinks and bar. It's Chicago how bad can you fuck up a pizza to not be edible? Idk even frozen pizza is good. But there pasta is not good at all. read more

Italian Pizza kitchen was a really nice place to take a quiet lunch together. The ambience was pleasant and happy. The dining room and Bar were very clean. Customer service was very nice although not totally on top of their game. The grilled calamari was definitely previously frozen, you can just taste a teeny bit of fishiness, but it was cooked perfectly. We were happy with it. The chicken on top of the salad, I forgot what the name of the salad was, was perfect. Parking is plentiful. The prices were definitely higher than they should have been for a lunch time menu. read more

My sister and I had a great dining experience at Italian Pizza Kitchen (IPK)! Parking is a little tight ie: hard to find a spot, but we saw someone leaving and were able to scoop up their space. A freight train started to come by and blew its whistle right as I opened the car door to go in and it made me jump and then laugh at myself! We were seated right away and they were fairly busy for a Saturday evening. Immediately you could tell there was a great atmosphere and patrons were enjoying themselves. As I walked by a booth I spotted a family eating a pizza and I commented how good it looked and asked the dad if it tasted as good as it looked and with a big smile said Yes! I knew what I was having - Pizza! We ordered some beer on tap and it was so fresh tasting, it hit the spot! They bring complimentary fresh bread and olive oil and it was awesome! We ordered stuffed mushrooms (so good!!) as an appetizer and then we each ordered our own small 10" pizza and customized each with 3 toppings of our choice, so we could have leftovers for another day! The crust was perfect, just the right amount of tomato sauce and lots of cheesey goodness on top of our toppings. The cheese was slightly browned and just the way I like it! Our server, Kelly was awesome! She answered all of our questions and was a pleasure to talk to. We told her we grew up in Roselle and really missed the old Pizza Cottage that used to be down the street and found out that the son from PC owns IPK! It's a no-brainer- the pizza here is going to be amazing! And it was! read more

I've been going to Italian Pizza Kitchen for almost as long as I've lived in Roselle, which is over 10 years. I even had them stored in my phone. That's how much I loved them. Years ago, the pizza had too much grease (when they were at the old location), and I waited awhile before ordering from them again. Since trying them again, I have really enjoyed their thin crust. They have been a staple for me. We also enjoy their pastas and their calamari. I tried ordering from them today for dinner and it turns out the gift certificate I wanted to use had apparently expired. It isn't a gift certificate from years ago but from this past Christmas. It was from their promotion where if you bought a 100 dollar gift certificate, you would get a 25 dollar gift certificate for free. It's a popular promotion restaurants try especially around the holidays. I tried redeeming my 25 gift certificate and was told it had expired at the end of March 2024. I don't remember the last gift certificate I had where it would expire just 3 months later let alone ever. It's a gift certificate, not a coupon. ‍‍‍ Needless to say, they are no longer stored in my phone. I would have previously given them 4-5 stars, but now I can't give them anything above a 3. read more

Food is good. Ordered quite a bit. Love the chicken but they got cheap and instead of by the piece you have to order a 4 piece meal. I don't need 3 orders of fries and 3 pieces of bread for $18 a meal. You lost a long time customer. Sad! read more

Just got through eating here. Pizza is really good. Vodka pasta chicken Parmesan. Excellent service is good ambience excellent price well

Excellent dinner tonight. It was everything I needed after a long week. Wine was refreshing and served promptly. Polenta was crisp with a soft inside. The best was my dinner filets, grilled shrimp with rigatoni in vodka sauce. Everything I was looking for tonight in one plate. Although it was busy the server was attentive. We were too full for dessert. But they had a tempting Gelato flight. Maybe next time. read more

I live in the area and came here to try 1/2 price pizza on a Tuesday night. I like tge ambiance of this place and had high hopes. It seems like they are a bit short staffed because I waited to be seated aboyt 5 minutes and nobody was around. I finally went over to the bartender and asked for someone to seat me. I had a thin crust pizza cheese only and it was just ok. I added salt to it because it was kind of bland. The crust was fine. It was just so ordinary. They require 1 drink purchase to get the 1/2 off deal. Since wine is pricy at $9 a glass I had a beer for $7. Staff and service was ok too. read more

One of the best--if not the best--places for pizza! Every bite delivers an incredible, unmatched flavor that's simply unforgettable. From the moment you walk in, there's a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The service is consistently great, and the staff always go above and beyond. I'd 100% recommend this spot to anyone in the area looking for a quality bite to eat! read more

Our host said this was really good pizza. I beg to differ. We had homemade sausage on one pizza and cheese on the other. The pizza for me was just basic red sauce, no flavor and really bland. I guess I'm used to awesome Red Savoy pizza in metro Minneapolis where the sauce is spicy and flavorful. Our host will have a lot of leftovers to munch on. read more

Our first visit to IPK was a memorable one, but not all for the right reasons. The only reason it wasn't a 5 experience for me was our main order for pizza somehow got missed and arrived much later than anticipated. We were on a short timeframe due to another commitment and the manager was really nice and tried to offer free dessert, but we were just out of time. Our server Pat was really nice and apologetic, but we hated to rush through such a delicious meal. To start, for me it's a plus having local Lynfred wines on the menu. The 1/2 price apps on Thursday were really tasty. We ordered the burrata, stuffed mushrooms and a chopped salad. The burrata and salad were great for the vegetarians in our group. We only ordered two pizzas, a margherita pizza and the IPK special (sausage, green pepper, mushroom and onion) but asked to hold the onion. Unfortunately, it came with onions so a little disappointed it wasn't exactly how we ordered it and was late on top of that. But the once the pizza arrived, it was hot and delicious with a lot of cheese. There was no doubt at our table, this was fantastic pizza! Despite our little snag with the ordering, I would likely return and ask for our same server because he was funny and very nice. read more

I asked to sit at the bar and was full the host sat me at a table by the bar. Cool, whatever. The host actually waited on me and put my order in I guess she notice the bar tender was acting super busy. Or maybe she was just color struck to see the only black person in the building.she wasn't too busy to ask the table next to me if everything was ok. I asked a random worker to take my entree order. He told the bartender that she had to get my order ad she said she will get to me as soon as she could. Anywho, food was good environment cool but that particular bartender, was weird, some ppl would even say racist. read more

Sabrina was our server. Wow very impressed with her service. Food was very good. Always enjoy IPK.

About three weeks ago, we ordered delivery. The young lady that answered the phone and took our order was rude and kept rushing me along. I ordered a chicken parm sandwich and noticed that only one side of the chicken was visible. When I opened up the sandwich, one end was cut off! You can clearly see a serrated knife cut across the chicken; and they had the nerve to charge me $16. Never has this happened to me before. So, we thought they had an off night and decided to call for delivery again. The same young lady answered the phone, in the same manner as before and before I knew it, I was sitting on hold. After sitting on hold for over 5 minutes, I hung up. I'm done! Shame too, because the food tasted good, but the customer service (at least for delivery) is just BAD. read more

As a foodie I am confused by some of the negative reviews. If you're concerned about the quality of FOOD and not all the other noise...this place has GREAT FOOD! We moved from Chicago and have visited twice at the bar for food and drinks and not only has it been delicious (apps, sandwiches and pizza) but also the bartender and drinks have been great. We will definitely be regulars here and we are extremely picky. Nothing but great experiences and food! read more

It seems this place doesn't like "individual" patrons. After being seated in the bar area....I was completely ignored by TWO bartenders who I understand were also "suppose" to wait on the table in that area. There were only 3 people at the far end of the bar and two near me who had already been served their drinks. I waited and waited, and the hostess even reminded the bar tender that I was there, but I was completely ignored. One bar tender was holding a conversation with the three at the far end, and the other was "shaking" a drink, over and over with her back to me! I know they also make drinks for the rest of the restaurant......BUT! SO I WALKED OUT! A warning to anyone who is an "individual" patron. I've had the same treatment at other restaurants but some DO welcome individuals. read more
