We ordered a kid's cheese pizza, fried calamari, spinach and artichoke dip, coconut onion rings, and crispy Brussels sprouts. We also ended up getting a deep dish. Every dish was excellent -- great flavor, fresh ingredients, and cooked perfectly. I'm officially a fan of this place. Plus, you can sit outside, and on Thursday nights they have live concerts. It's a great atmosphere all around.

We had a party of 10. We made reservations and the table was ready. Our server was very nice and helpful. My wife was feeling hot and out of no where, the server came with a mini handheld fan and plopped it on the table which was awesome. We ordered Pepperoni Thin, 1/2 cheese, 1/2 cheese thin, Gfree Pepperoni, Gfree Penne with meat sauce, Brussels, and Onion Rings. The pizza was crisp and the cheese was nicely cooked. I really love the sauce as it has a nice little sweetness to it. The Brussels were good and roasted perfectly and had a nice drizzle of sauce. The onion rings were large and had crunchy. The server was very attentive and funny. We really appreciated the fan! They also had live music. I def will be back here.

Two levels of seating, a gaming area and nice little bar make Pizza Pavia a solid all around hang for any night out. Trivia night is fantastic because you get to meet people and have something fun to do while enjoying your meal. Speaking of, I would like to get in to the food. I have gotten to try the garlic bread. and it bodes well as an appetizer. Not too over done on the garlic and the right amount of crisp to the bread. The mozzarella sticks were also a really tasty addition to the meal. The marinara sidepiece was nice , but nothing too special if we're being truthful. As the center piece, the pizza always has some big shoes to fill. The pies, I must say, did exactly that. The flavors stayed true to that classic tavern style we all know and love. The crust was well executed and left me satisfied after every bite. Most definitely one of the best pizzas one can get in the area, and for a decent price as well. Most certainly a top spot to grab a bite at, and great location for trivia too! Can't wait to come back again!

I've heard rumblings through Yelp and other outlets that these tavern style, thin crust pizza's are…read morestarting to challenge the current deep dish belt holder for the official pie of Chicago, and they were right! The main highlights to me for this style of pizza would be the lack of a substantive crust, the liberal application of cheese, and their rich and meaty pizza sauce which really knocked it out of the park. Please note that since I was feeding kids, had to order a half pepperoni cheese pizza and it was this good with basically no toppings. Smaller, old school pizza shop with a handful of tables and a couple taps. Everyone was super nice to me as I had all these questions about their pie and talking about their rich history in the neighborhood.

Tried Nino's for the first time based on the recommendation from others. Food was okay, their Penne…read moreVodka sauce was TOO cheesy to eat. Their Chicken Vesuvio was decent along with the price of their food. The waitress we had was attentive and very apologetic for the "unwanted guest" we had at our table and at other tables as well. The unwanted guest.....were all the bees flying around the tables and food. We had at least 4 bees constantly flying around our table and there were many more at other tables. It got to a point that my wife and I didn't even finish our dinner and had it packed up so we could get out of there to avoid the bees. A table next to us did the same. Like I said, Nino's is an "okay" place for the food they serve and the prices they charge, but definitely not a place to go to, to eat outside, which is the only option they have as there is no indoor seating. Nino's, please spend a little time and money to do something about these "unwanted guest". Thanks.

We were able to snag a back table so not loud and we can hear the whole table. We started with the Hearts of Palm salad to share. It was perfect to share with three people as a starter and we all loved the lemon vinaigrette. For entrees - I got the thin crust Garden Pizza special - artichokes, pesto, pine nuts, other veggies. I thought it was delicious and it reheated very nicely the next day. Others at the table - got the salmon, sausage pizza and spicy vodka pasta. Everyone enjoyed. Our server (AJ) was fabulous and joked with the table - he made the experience enjoyable as well as the atmosphere of the restaurant. While we're not in Arlington Heights often, it is a place I would recommend.

The evening began with the sort of optimism that has historically led men into bankruptcy, war, and…read moresecond marriages. The hostess appeared wearing a blue-and-white striped sweater hanging off one shoulder like she'd stepped out of an Italian perfume commercial. Around her neck was one of those little cornicello pepper necklaces, dangling just enough to suggest fate had finally decided to throw me a bone. Blue eyes. Not "blue." The kind of blue sailors used to abandon families over. She laughed at one of my jokes. That was all the encouragement my diseased brain required. I immediately conducted a full tactical assessment of the restaurant. The P.O.A. Index... ...was approaching DEFCON 1. Every direction I looked was another devastatingly attractive waitress carrying Aperol Spritzes with effortless confidence. It was like wandering into a government-funded supermodel relocation program. Then... A shadow fell across the table. A man. Our waiter was a man. Christ Almighty. The emotional whiplash nearly snapped my neck. It's like going to the zoo hoping to see lions and discovering the enclosure has been replaced with an accountant named Kevin. There are beautiful women everywhere, and somehow I'm discussing pasta recommendations with a guy who probably knows three different olive oils by taste. Cruel. Absolutely cruel. To his credit, the b@5tard was outstanding. Friendly. Fast. Knew the menu inside and out. Kept the drinks full. Never interrupted. The s.o.b. gave me absolutely nothing to complain about, which only deepened my resentment. The food, meanwhile, was infuriatingly good. The pizzas arrived looking like they'd been blessed by an Italian grandmother carrying unresolved anger from 1947. Thin crust. Fresh mozzarella. Just enough char to remind you that ovens are supposed to flirt with fire, not electricity. The pasta had that unmistakable handmade texture that makes Olive Garden feel like a felony. The cocktails disappeared with alarming speed. By my third Negroni, I was convinced I could hear Dean Martin narrating my life. Walking out, I glanced back toward the hostess one last time. She smiled. For approximately three seconds I considered abandoning my entire life to become a part-time sommelier with absolutely no qualifications. Then reality returned. The male waiter handed me the check. Four stars. The food was phenomenal. The cocktails were dangerous. The hostess should be classified as an Italian national treasure. And our waiter deserves a raise... despite committing the unforgivable crime of existing between me and the waitresses.
