I genuinely love the pizza and mostcollis! The nostalgic old-school atmosphere and wonderful bartenders make it a special place for me. I truly love this spot! read more

Been going here for 40+ years and will keep going. Same dependable tasty pizza, time after time. We keep it simple, cheese and sausage. Sometimes green pepper and mushroom. It's crust that we will eat instead of tossing. read more

Sausage and extra sauce pizza was delicious! Fabulous and I ate so much because it was so good!

Best spaghetti marinara I've ever had. Go there often. Friendly service and smiles. Easy parking which I appreciate!

We just moved to the area and searched for most loved local pizza. This popped up and IT MUST BE RIGHT. Such great pizza. The toppings are fresh, crispy thin crust, great prices. read more

Well thought out menu with something for everyone. Pizza is the star, different types such as stuffed and tavern. Customization is the best; sauces, doneness, and crust Ample topping choices and specialty pizzas are great read more

This restaurant has stood the test of time. We really like the extra thin sausage pizza and the sharable size salads. Service and food are consistently excellent. Take out is available. read more

I was on vacation from Arizona in late September and even though I had grown up in the area, I had never heard of this establishment. I happened to find them by accident thanks to an Italian Beef Facebook page called Chicago Style Italian Beef. They don't open until 3pm which was a little inconvenient for lunch, but it was well worth the wait! I was the first person through the door and had the place to myself. Nice seating area with sturdy chairs and solid tables mixed in with some booths. I was lucky enough to be there on a Tuesday which meant $8 beefs and they don't skimp on the beef one bit! The giardiniera was not a name brand, but was very good and my total bill with beef, fries, and Dr. Pepper was $17.13! My server was very nice and even brought me a refill of my drink. The beef is piled high on a hard roll and was very juicy since I requested it dipped. My fries were a very big order, hot and crispy! I would be a regular if I wasn't 1800 miles away! But, I will be back for pizza next time!! read more

Nice little mom and pop place. Good food, friendly service, clean place. We will be back!

They know how to do a well done pizza. Sausage garlic for the win! The little bar inside is the place to eat and enjoy the za!

This place has been our go to for the last 14 yrs since we moved to Naperville. Very fresh ingredients and amazing cheese. Lately, they've been adding ground pepper to their pizza however, and now I have to remember to tell them not to pepper my pie. Also, their price has gone up. So, what used to be a weekly treat is more of a once a month splurge $40 xlarge pepperoni, mushroom, pepper and onion delivered plus I usually tip another $10, so it's a $50 purchase (the delivery charge is $3.50). Still my fav tho. You just can't beat the freshness and their delivery people are awesome. read more

Pizza is fantastic. Some of the best I have ever eaten. Highly recommend this place. It hits the spot every time.

Hubby got the brilliant idea to come back to his old time favorite pizza place in south Naperville. It is just a tiny restaurant with a carry out side just for pizza. On the way out we saw they had a bar tucked in the middle. Not quite sure how you got in there but I'm sure we overlooked it. Every bite my hubby was flashing back to his youth it was pretty funny! Their pizza was very, very good. Thin, crisp crust, great sauce. Great cheese ratio good spices! We had their meatballs appetizer- very yummy! We split a Caesar salad and the shaved Parmesan cheese on-top was fantastic. Next time I want to try one of their pastas. They have a full menu including Arancini balls, lemon chicken pasta, and freshly made cannolis and tiramisu. Very nice surprise definitely a little hidden gem!! read more

Food was excellent service was great. Our server Gavin was on the ball getting me a new beverage even before mine was empty. Had the hot wings and the special spaghetti and meatballs. All was delicious. Highly recommended giving this place a try read more

We absolutely love this place. They have good pizza, the absolute best chicken wings, and great adult beverage specials daily. The atmosphere is cozy and casual. It's incredibly kid-friendly; one of the few places I feel my children can actually be themselves at. But the best part of the place is the service and staff. it begins with a fantastic manager, PJ. He always makes sure every customer is satisfied, and is incredibly dedicated to supporting local schools and the community. Our two favorite servers are Gavin, and Jess. They are incredibly prompt, kind, and accommodating. My favorite thing is how they treat my children. They always make them feel happy and comfortable, which makes our night stress-free. Little Italian is also the best place to go for large parties and group gathering. They are incredibly accommodating, and can almost always offer you the space, even on relatively short notice. Once the bartender was our server, and delivered the same extraordinary customer experience, also paying special attention to my children, making our night fantastic and stress free. read more

Pizza is great . The crust is normal not too doughy not too thin just perfect. They also have great salads. Just a great experience. read more

Left a great review before I'll never go back. I even ask the server if he would eat that pizza he said no a big giant slop after waiting over an hour for what a disappointment. Never going back read more

I love little Italian! Definitely a staple in my house and our regular pizza spot. I'd recommend getting their extra thin pizza! They also offer sandwiches which are a good option as well. If you're looking for something quick, they always have slices of cheese, pepperoni, and sausage available. The bar is divey, the bartenders are always friendly and personable. It's clean and well kept. Pricing is very fair and they have daily specials on drinks! Looking forward to my next visit. read more

Is Little Italian a chain? There was one in Glen Ellyn in the '70s/'80s. It was great, and what prompted me to try out your place.I am so glad I did! Your thin crust is the best of the best. Speaking as a west suburban guy, I'm saying better than Malnati's, Giordano's, Pal Joey's, Beggar's, Rosati's, Aurelios, Maciano's Nancy's, Connie's and even Barones! Thanks for the wonderful pie guys, and remember; keep the crust side down! read more

Little Italian pizza is one of best. Always on my restaurant list when I'm in Naperville.

New ownership - new and not improved recipe. Old recipe/preparation was a 4.5 star. This is generic pizza at a premium price. Crust was chewy/doughy and not fully done. Sauce was curiously neutral. Cheese was somewhat stiff and pulled off the top in an extended piece while eating. I usually don't leave uneaten crust, but there was so much I left half a plate full. This was a make do dinner on a busy night before Thanksgiving. I'd have preferred a decent frozen pizza at a fraction of the cost, and definitely miss the old Little Italian recipe and preparation of not so long ago. One last thing -- the $5 individual salad is about half the size it previously was -- should be labeled as a "side salad." read more

One of my favorites for pizza for literally decades. Too bad it's a bit of a drive to get there. Only complaint is that they occasionally close the dining room in a Friday or Saturday night for a private event; we usually call first to make sure they're open. read more

10/10 the best local pizza spot. The crust is so perfectly crispy but soft and the sauce is delicious. Perfect blend of cheese, whether it's the deep dish or the thin crust you cannot go wrong. We always order the spicy curly fries too, they are so yummy! read more

Always my go to pizza place. Love sitting at the bar. Love getting takeout, the pizza is incredible. Highly recommend.

I ordered a small deep dish pizza and tomato soup for carry out. The food was reasonably priced and generously portioned. My favorite deep dish is Giordano's, so that's my benchmark. Little Italian's deep dish is not quite as good, but not bad. The pizza was nice and cheesy, with plenty of toppings. The sauce was just a tad sparse. The crust was nice and flaky, although my wife said it was slightly undercooked in her slice (mine was perfectly fine). My only complaint is that the pizza was slightly lacking in flavor. I think I'd like the cheese to be more salty. Very good overall. The soup was thick and creamy, but different than any other tomato soup I've had. It was orange in color and tasted cheesy. Not bad, just different. read more

I've been going to this location for almost 30 years and even though I don't live close anymore, I willingly drive 30+ mins out of my way to still have my favorite pizza place. They have more than just pizza too, they also have great pasta and salad options- I highly recommend the chicken parmesan. If you don't want to take it to go, they have a super cute sit down restaurant available as well. The service is always great, usually high school kids, but they do a good job. Pricing is the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5. It is a little more on the pricey side but every now and then it's worth the treat. Don't forget the desserts too! The tiramisu is delicious. read more

Always good food, always good service...been ordering for 20 years now, and really have had no issues..good solid place.

When my family and I moved to this neighborhood 4 years ago, we immediately began looking for a good local place to support our pizza addiction. We got beyond lucky to have found one of the finest pizza places in Chicagoland. Perfect crust, excellent sauce, great toppings and quality from top to bottom. Little Italian knows exactly what they're doing, and they do it well. read more

Every thing was excellent good Chicago style pizza they offer thin ,med,extra crust amazing prices for great food

Tried to order for Restaurant Week where the advertisement offers $20.20 for XL 2 topping pizza. I wanted 2 toppings on 1/2 and just cheese on the other half. They said I couldn't do that because it had to be 2 full toppings. I explained that I'd be paying for 2 full toppings with the $20.20 deal, but only receiving 1 full topping. Manager said it's a % off coupon for the regular price of 2 toppings (even though that's not what the ad says) and wouldn't do the deal- instead offered that we could pay $23 for 1 full topping....how does that make sense?!? Also ordered online a few weeks ago, went to pick up the pizza 30 minutes later as the online order said, but they hadn't even started making it when we got there because they "don't ever check the online order" according to the employee. We've been going there for years but after the last few orders not being very good and all the hassle, it looks like we will be finding a new favorite pizza place to order from! read more

Little Italian Pizza - The 2020 deal doesn't indicate it's a % off, but they wouldn't let us order it with just 1 topping! - Pizza Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

Paid this establishment a visit the other day and ordered their sausage and mushroom pizza on the X thin pizza crust with the cheese being cooked to a golden brown. Each piece was like a slice of heaven, OMG, was this exceptionally good. I dont want to forget to mention the ingredients on the pizza, no skimping what so ever. I just wish they would deliver a little further west in Naperville. I may have to see if they would meet somewhere within their delivery zone. Oh one last note, I joined their rewards program, figuring I'd be back. read more

A great place to dine . The best pie anywhere, 3 different crust choices. Nice bar very friendly Staff ,well priced food alcohol is very inexpensive for the quality. This establishment is customer, friendly and caring, the owners and the customers go beyond.They need to give us another 50 years read more

Sorely disappointed. We had high hopes based on reviews. So we visited this place for the first time today. The wait for food is long. We ordered wings, salad, a burger and a medium pizza. The wings were fatty and a bit undercooked but the sauce not them (buffalo and bbq) was good. The burger was flavorless and the bun was stale. The salad, well its salad. The pizza, oh man, it had no taste, literally no flavor. No seasoning no salt nothing. We might as well have been eating paper. The star of the show was just a fall on your face let down. Staff was polite though and that's about all. Won't be returning again. read more

Hosted an event for Mark Carroll for Congress here! It was quaint with good service and tasty pizza!

Ordered a large thin crust half cheese half sausage. The crust is about 3/4 inch thick...not so thin. Sauce and sausage are boring. The cheese was the only good thing going on. Tried this place based on reviews and obviously Naperville has a serious pizza problem....nothing is good. This pizza tastes frozen with fresh cheese on top. If you're new to Naperville and looking for good pizza, cross this place off your list and keep looking. read more

Price is great ORDERD super thin half cheese half sausage pepperoni Tasty but sauce needs improving! Have not been inside. Looking forward to the summer months. For now it's order in. I can't wait for summer at little Italian Pizza . I hope they have a patio. Great idea to sit outside right now with a cold Beer and a big slice of Well by for now. See you this summer read more

Great pizza and wings..... service is good .... But check your order before you leave... have gotten home a couple times without everything we ordered. read more

Haven't had a pizza from here in more than 10 years. It was in my top 5. A large cheese pizza that cost $22 should be exceptional, the crust was like card board, zero crisp, grease dripping and the cheese was not melted. It was heartbreaking because I was so excited. My guess is new ownership‍ read more

The restaurant is under some remodeling. We waited in the front foyer until I walked back to let them know we were there. I ordered the 1/2 slab of ribs. They were covered with very sweet bbq sauce. The 5-bones were over cooked, and one of them was charred black. They served Chicken Marsala to my wife and my friend's wife, who said it wasn't as good as before. The interior was very grey and stark. The best of the place was the lasagna my friend ordered, as well as the young waitress who was very attentive. She asked us if everything was okay. It was just okay. read more

Best pizza ever. 7 years ago we moved to SoCal. No good pizza there anywhere! We miss this place SO much!!!
