Just went there and got the chicken parm. Please be aware it's not the traditional chicken parm that you're expecting cause my "chicken parm" was a 1/4 of a chicken breast pounded extremely thin with no breaded coating. Mostly pasta which I understand cause pasta costs what...? Like $3 a box???? What should've been a decent meal turned out to be just pasta with chunky tomato sauce with what I was told was "Italian chunks of sausage" and a paper thin chicken breast. I ordered 2 of them and paid $30 and both entrees came with a garlic bread that was similar to a frozen bosco stick but way thinner and without the cheese filling. Rosati's has a similar option that was my regular go to and will now be my only option when in the mood for chicken parm. I was willing to try something new but wasn't worth the experience. Do with that information what you will. read more

I recently moved to Crystal Lake and was looking for great delivery options. I have tried several other places that were recommended by friends, but I really love Papa Saverio's. I love their pizza, the breaded mushrooms and especially the wings. The garlic Parmesan wings are beyond compare. Delivery is reliable! The food is warm when I get it. Sorry, I forgot to take pics. read more

Super disappointed for the first time. Pizza always comes piping hot, not this time and we've been ordered for years. New owners or new management? read more

The best double dough pizza you can find in the area. The menu is extensive and I'd suggest something fried like the fried mushrooms. Thin crust is very good too. Google for coupons or look at their website. read more

We had a delicious meal tonight delivered. We had a Baked Mostaccioli with Meatballs added on and a Lasagna. I loved that there were sauce and meat options for our dishes. The food came so hot that it burned my mouth, portions are very generous and affordably priced. The tomato sauce is a little sweeter which I really enjoy. The meatballs were super flavorful. The Tiramisu is delicious. The food was delivered super fast too! Overall, our first experience was great and will definitely order again. read more

Great food great pizzas. Never had a problem with an order. Highly recommend. If you have a taste for Italian you've come to the right place. read more

Decent pizza, but really poor communication and service. We've been customers for over a decade, but reevaluating whether or not we'll return. It appears to me that they take phone orders off site and there is no communication between the order taker and the counter workers. They offer coupons and rewards but don't honor them correctly. read more

Great Italian beefs, pizzas and salads Taste great. Fast delivery, nice delivery people. The lady who has taken several of my orders is always friendly and efficient. Great place to order from The owner is a very kind gentleman& really cares about his customers read more

Great pizza and excellent service with takeout! Lady taking my order was very patient as I kept changing parts of my order. Ingredients were generous. read more

Who even made this? Who ever did please stop making pizza. I was disappointed when I took a bite. Disgusting pizza! I had order their thin crust pizza for $15.99 . With Green pepper, extra cheese and ground beef. Total of $26.48 . The cheese seems very thick and chewy. It seems like cheap cheese to me and this is the most disgusting pizza I ever bit into or even put in my mouth. They didn't even cut the pizzas topping and it was hard to even get a piece. Also, the cheese looks disgusting too. I recommend to Order from Georgios. read more

Pizza was good. Not bad if you like a little sweetness to your sauce. We ordered a thin crust and it was a cracker like crust. For some reason I kept smelling burnt grease in the dough. Cheese was not bad either. We picked it up and it was still hot and melty.. it was a first for us and excited to try more pizza places in the area. read more

I got my free pizza based on my points earned. It was FANTASTC! plenty of spinach, cheese, sauce, hot on arrival. Jeff does not skimp on anything! It was top quality! read more

My wife had a taste for pasta and wanted to go out to an Italian restaurant and I was comfortable at home and didn't want to go out. I said why don't we order from Papa Saverio's. She didn't think that was a good idea saying it's a pizza place and their pasta probably isn't going to be that good. I ordered some wings in case the past wasn't that good. When my wife was done eating I asked her how she liked the Moataccioli in meat sauce and she said probably the best she ever had. Now, this isn't just anybody paying a compliment, this is probably the most critical restaurant person around. She's a great cook and expects everything we eat out to be the same way. The wings were really good too. read more

Always my go to for Italian pasta dishes. Great lasagna is one of my favorites. Always great service over the phone and at the door.

Plesently surprised by this place! Their thin crust was great and the storefront is small but looked cute. Huge fan of the garlic butter sauce and if their crust was slightly more crispy I'd throw another star on this review. Hi Joe! read more

My family absolutely loves the pizza here. For me it's just okay but we come here often because my kids and husband really like it. Why three stars then? It's the people who work here who really ruin it for me. We have come here probably once a week and I would say 3/4 times they get something wrong! And it's not the same thing each time it's something different every time. They make the pizza wrong, they cut it when asked not to, make it on the wrong crust. It's across the board terrible service. After them constantly messing up for the last several years I finally have my husband convinced to stop coming here. They have great food but the service leaves a lot to be desired. They are other places with equally delicious food who will get your order right. I won't be back. read more

Average food but the middle aged man there that seems to be the manager was the most rude and incompetent person I have ever encountered eating out to a restaurant. Highly recommend you go somewhere else besides this restaurant. read more

Bad thin-crust pizza. Just bad. It used to be a deal when they gave you coupons on-line for the pizza. Now that it's full price for the same bad pizza, I think not. Nothing to see here, move along.. read more

We drive from North Barrington to have pizza with our children. The Italian sausage on the pizza is always so fresh and generous. We always order extra to take home. Our children like to see Mr Pat he always welcomes us when he is around. Great food and staff. Thank you for keeping good pizza in the burbs, wish you were a bit closer but worth the drive. Wish we could give more stars. read more

There is a small little dinning area which is nice and clean. They also sell by the slice. The pizza is okay, but certainly not the best. I personally found the curst to be a bit on the chewy side. Although I must say the price was nice. read more

My company orders catering from Papa Saverio's in Crystal Lake once or twice every year. While I cannot comment on their pizza, we order the Italian beef, the chicken and the mostaccioli and all are great! Customer service is always excellent; I spoke with Don, who was extremely helpful. My favorite is definitely the beef, which is always perfectly seasoned. The pasta sauce for the modtaccioli could use some additonal seasoning, but otherwise I have no complaints. Delivery has always been on-time. We'll be back. read more

Pushing money away! So I entered the restaurant around 7:45 pm and they don't close until 10. I normally go in there for two slices of pizza. They told me they have no slices left and all the chairs are up on the tables. Really? It's only 7:45. How do you except to make money when you have all that up and no made pizza slices? Very Poor Management! read more

Absolutely horrible customer service, just purchased a new home in the area and was excited for a new pizza place. Typically we order pizza every friday but today we were switching it up and doing a pizza monday. Went to call in my order and was treated like more of a disturbance then a paying customer, asked to speak with a manager and then was promptly informed I was speaking with a manager which was shocking with the rudeness and attitude. Will never attempt to place another order at this establishment because clearly they do not have time and do not need your money. Luckily nicks pizza was more then pleased to help us. So thank you papa saverios for showing myself and my family/friends your time is not worth taking a minute to place my order and then continuing to inform myself how annoying your job is, never again. read more

Mess up orders all the time, lonnnnng delivery wait times (just hit the two hour mark). Food isn't good enough for the service to be this horrible. read more

Poor management. Do not eat here. Owners are weak and small minded, not willing to admit to their mistakes. Never ordering here again.

Probably the worst place in all of Crystal Lake to get a pie, if you want good Pizza try Georgios, That's Amore, or Pinemoor. This place truly Sucks!! read more

I am a big fan of their thin crust pizza, which is the best pizza they offer. The sausage and pepperoni and veggies are of good quality; they use real cheese; and the pizza is not greasy or too salty (ala Rosatis.....) Note that the pizza they sell by the slice is their double crust, which is not my favorite. I do wish that this location ran more specials or offered more coupons similar to the Lake in the Hills location, but the thin crust at this location is thinner and better compared to the LITH location. Try to support this family run local business. read more

My son pulled a staple out of his mouth while eating a deep dish pizza. I called the store, and because we ordered the pizza on Thursday, and he ate the leftovers today, the manager suggested that possibly we were responsible for the foreign object. Result...she offered me a store credit. Like I would be stupid enough to order from them again in the future. I think I'll notify the health department instead. read more

The only pizza place that delivers where their other menu items are actually great! Best delivery grilled chicken caesar salad or chicken sandwich around in my opinion. Crowd pleaser. read more

Not sure who ate what or when, but last Saturday we had a sausage, mushroom and green pepper pizza delivered. It was hot, crispy (as we like it) and delicious! My wife is a former New Yorker (the City) and I grew up in Chicago. All we can say is that it ranks among the very best we've had. We're going to order again tonight. read more
