    Flat calzone
    Lisa E.

    I posted a good review over a year ago and I don't know what changed but a month ago I ordered our regular ( steak and cheese sub and a calzone) and it was just okay, we tried it last night and it was inedible.. the steak and cheese hardly had any onions and peppers se basically it was just steak and way too much cheese, I got chess fries and they were so salty that I took 2 bites and I threw them away, my husband's calzone was flat like the dough didn't rise and it had very little meat and it was tasteless . We don't get to eat out often and I won't be going back. What a shame, it seems like the kitchen staff just doesn't care anymore. Eat at your own risk!! I might as well flushed our hard earned cash down the toilet. The main reason I posted this review is because I woke up at 5 am nauseous and with a bad taste in my mouth.

    Chicago style MEDIUM DEEP DISH PIZZA
    Brandon L.

    We stopped here for dinner! The Chicago style pizza is fantastic! The marinara is fresh and full of flavor! We had 3 gigantic garlic knots to start and couldn't stop talking about how good they were. If you like pizza, you will love this place. Our server Jordan was very attentive, friendly, had good menu recommendations for us, overall she took great care of us.

    Usually really good, seemed a bit dry today, maybe it was the delay today, ass they forgot the fries, so took extra time to receive them and get home

    I won't man-splain this pic to you - you get it.

    Nokomis couldn't hold us, so we ended up in Venice. You know, the OTHER side of Donna Bay. I won't say I understand all the decorum, but we know this- they make a mean deep dish. And do yourself a favor and get a canoli. That's all you get from us, rookies. Simple math.

    I am glad to repot that I have gone back to see and smell twice recently and could not notice any spraying going on. Thank you Joey D's! I can now recommend your restaurant once again. Thank you.!

    We had a fabulous meal here tonight with some neighbor friends! It was highly recommended to all of us and I can see why! We've never had pizza like this before and it won't be the last! Wowwwy, that's all I can say! Yum! The service was great too! Couldn't have asked for better! See you next time Joey D 's!

    A true Chicago style deep dish pizza can be found here! We visit a state park in the area a couple times a year and always pick up a pizza and salads to have back at the camp site. Our order is always ready on time and presented with a smile. We've never gone inside to eat, having discovered them during the pandemic, but we're planning to eat in the dining room on our next visit! Obviously a great community "destination" restaurant, and good for groups. Come with an appetite... these pizzas are hefty!

    Not much pizza  left because it's GOOD!!!

    Casual and fun Chicago vibes with excellent thin crust pizza. THIS is the place to go for true authentic Chicago food. We would know - we used to live there!

    Deep dish build your own pizza!

    Wonderful service. Thin pepperino pizza wasn't good. Uneatable heated up the same evening. When Hungry howie's is better. That's just sad.

    Had their veal gorginzola on a take out. I won't say it was good but my wife though I was nuts when…read moreI licked the dish clean. Lol Absolutely one of the best dishes I have had in a long time. Will order again for sure but next time I will ask for more bread to sop up the extra sauce.

    We have been loyal customers of Asaro's for seven years. My parents are regulars who visit…read morefrequently, and whenever family comes to town from up north, this is where we bring them. It has always been our go-to. This past Sunday, our experience was deeply disappointing and frankly unlike anything we have encountered here before. We ordered two pizzas and salads. The margherita pizza -- which my parents had ordered just one week prior without any issues -- arrived completely different. It had an additional cheese layered beneath the fresh mozzarella that was overcooked and almost burnt. The crust on both pizzas was so hard it could not be folded (anyone from the East Coast knows you fold your pizza), and my son was unable to cut through it with a knife and fork. It was inedible. We sent both pizzas back. The server returned and offered to remake only one, insisting the second was fine. It was not. When we pointed out that the margherita is traditionally just fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, and basil -- and that this was not what was served -- we were told "this is how we do it." We have been ordering this pizza for seven years. It was not how they do it. The one pizza that was remade came back only marginally better. We did not ask again. From that point, our table was completely abandoned. Every glass at our table was empty. Not the server, not a busser, not a single person passing by stopped to offer water or check on us. My father eventually had to go inside to find someone. My son had to walk to our car in the parking lot to retrieve his water bottle, and I went to my car to get a sparkling water I happened to have in the cup holder. That is how thirsty we were and how little attention our table received. The indifference started even before the food arrived. When we declined cocktails and handed back the drink list, letting the server know we would all just be having water, the reaction was visibly dismissive and unwelcoming -- not the kind of response anyone expects when simply choosing not to order alcohol. The hostess, as has been the case on prior visits, was visibly disgruntled and unwelcoming. We understand that Sunday service is busy. We were patient and did not make a scene. We simply wanted food that was edible and basic attentiveness as paying customers. Neither was provided. My mother, who has been one of their most consistent regulars, left saying she did not want to return. That says everything. For a restaurant that benefits enormously from a captive local audience and steady tourist traffic, this level of disregard for loyal, long-term customers is disappointing. We hope management takes this feedback seriously.
