    This is a chicken Alfredo pizza $24's I think not. 10 more dollars and could of just went to Giordano's.

    Not worth the money. Frozen pizza would of been better can't speak on the rest of the phone

    I wanted to believe the reviews were true, I wanted this to be something more than your standard lowbrow stale ingredient pizzas you find around colleges and well, Oswego. Sadly, it was a disappointment. The pizza was just meh, Now I'm not saying it was awful, you could eat it, but there was no flavor, the sauce was too acidic and way too much making it overpower all the ingredients, the cheese tasted processed, and the toppings, first barely there, and secondly did not taste fresh. The dough, thin crust but wasn't cooked at a high enough temperature so it got chewy and bland. The wings on the other hand... pretty good actually. Very crispy and great spice. If they took more time with flavoring their pizza the way they do the wings, they might be able to salvage something. It just, doesn't seem that they care about the pizza craft and are just there to be there and the results mediocre at best. I really don't think I'll be back, at least if it is my decision.

    11 inch pizza perfect for 2

    Tucked away in a strip mall set back off of Route 59 is this new to me restaurant and bar. But I…read morethink they've been there for about nine years. Parking was easy. Getting a couple spots to sit was also easy. Getting and keeping anyone's attention was not as easy. It was a busy-ish Trivia Tuesday and they seemed to be well staffed but both people behind the bar that we tried to make contact with breezed past us a lot. Despite that, we did eventually try the $5 margaritas which packed a nice punch. We also went with a pepperoni wrapped and deep fried cheese stick. Clearly not a premade product from somewhere else...the sauce was great while the cheese stick lacked pepperoni flavor even though we clearly saw some in there. It was more boring flavor wise than expected but a really great concept! Our Foo pizza was ordered without the cilantro but also arrived without the jalapeños. Again, another great concept but this one lacked on the execution side of things. Not enough BBQ sauce at all (I'm not a huge sauce girl, but this was way too light), soooo many fried onion strings clumped together (and I love fried onions...soooo), missing the spicy component in error.... But the crust was great and cooked nicely, the pulled pork was delicious when you found a bite, the bacon cooked perfectly and the pineapple portion was good. Why four stars instead of three? Clearly they're using quality ingredients. This is huge to me! Restaurant felt, looked and smelled clean. Conceptually they've got some awesome menu items that make me want to come back and we already mentioned to friends of ours. And the drinks were solid. We will take a different approach next time and hopefully add this one to the rotation.

    Just ordered delivery for 2 pizzas. Both tavern style and one being gluten free. One pizza is…read morecompletely burnt, and is inedible. The gluten free pizza is completely undercooked, dough is almost raw. So, after 68.00 spent, both pizzas are going in the garbage. Very upset and frustrated to spend that much money on terrible pizza. I can't believe they would allow these pizzas to go out the door like this. I am calling management now. UPDATE******* The GM Billy responded to my issue promptly and refunded me my money. He was very apologetic and embarrassed our pizzas were delivered in that fashion. I am pleased he responded so quickly and resolved the issue appropriately.

    First, this Maciano's has a lot of VEGAN options if you ask for you for no cheese (like Pasta,…read moreLoaded Veggie Pizza with no cheese or bring vegan mozzarella) Obviously plenty for meat-eaters BUT so many options for seafood lovers!! (I see food and I eat it!!) Lol Start off with the most delicious hot loaf of bread, truly exceptional! The very kindest and friendly servers who are quick to move with your bread and meals Lovely, intimate cozy restaurant with booth seating available Please see my photographs below P..S. We wonder why all of the Maciano's do not serve the same things? Why does the Vernon Hills location serve the Angel Hair Pomodoro with Fresh tomato and the Aurora location serve canned tomato sauce?

    My family has ordered delivery from here several times and we love it! The food always comes fresh…read moreand we are suckers whenever we receive a coupon in the mail. Our favorite pizza is "the works" pizza without olives. I think we've ordered this twice now, and I say "I think" because it could've been more - my husband is the one who usually requests pizza like it's daily bread and naturally would do the ordering :) If you order "the works" without any modifications, it contains sausage, pepperoni, ground beef, bacon, mushroom, onion, green olives, black olives, and green peppers. We've only tried the pizza made with traditional thin crust, but they have different types of dough you can choose from for a slight upcharge: double dough, pan, stuffed, etc. This pizza is perfect because it checks the box for meats (him) and checks the box for veggies (me). We also order a side of marinara which comes in a little tub like a "cup" of soup; it is worth the $5 to dunk your crust in. That's how I will always order pizza, with extra marinara on the side. We've had their wings and a few other apps too. if you're ever in the mood for really good thin crust that holds up against the toppings and is still tastes right out of the oven when if you order delivery, maciano's is the place. They are perfect for game days, or really any occasion when you're craving really good 'za.
