Chicago hotdog I liked it better than dine dog and no screaming kids
Deborah S.

Took my hubby last night he's never been here and I told him I liked this place..I had meatballs they were like warm, when hot they r delish. He had meatball sub "it was ok" as for wine there were no prices on menu.. his fault I would have asked but 7.5 $ and he said it's normal to be 3 fingers this was two fingers and he wasn't happy about such a small amount for 7.5$. With the 10,50 sub which was fine, server asked fries or chips.. he asked what else can I have she said fries or chips. I said what else if you can't eat that if you have diabetes? She said you wouldn't be eating a meatball sub if you had diabetes. I was thinking little snip! Anyway took the chips to give to homeless. Then we get the check we asked for from another server cute sweet blonde. I told her disappointed nothing else offered with sub he wouldn't eat potato anything. She said you could have had salad and seemed surprised it wasn't offered. Anyway the blonde was lovely the other gal is the reason he said he will never go back as well as bad wine pour. I think lunch was very good for me dinner time not so much

Their version of a "Italian Beef." (Half of sandwich...hardly even a meal, at least for me.)

An absolute disgrace with respect to passing themselves off as a Chicago restaurant. When I first moved here some years ago, the owners were actually from Chicago. I went there a lot, got to know them. Food was authentic, the real deal. It has changed hands several times over the years, and the food has suffered as a result. It's obvious the current owners have likely never even been to the Chicago area. They need to take the word "Chicago" out of their name. What they now offer is not representative of good Chicago food...not even close. Like too much of the food in this area, it's just bland (why I rarely eat out here anymore). Their only connection to Chicago is the decor...remnants from the original owners. I gave up on their pizza years ago; mediocre in contrast to a real Windy City tavern pizza. I recently got a hot dog and what they pass off for an "Italian Beef." Hot dog *not* Vienna (unless you ask for one...not the case in the past), not on a sesame seed bun and served with a lousy jar type pickle instead of relish. For $10 the "Beef" is a disaster. Only a few small pieces of tasteless rawhide (see photo). Worst I've ever had anywhere. Mind you, I stopped by in mid afternoon (in mid Sept), and they only had one other customer...so they were not so busy they didn't have time to do it right. When they *are* busy, service can be lousy, too. They have no business passing themselves off as a Chicago restaurant. They need to change the name and move on.

Best pizza in Stuart area went away for the weekend with my boyfriend and had to try this place.

First time trying Chicago Tavern Style Pizza! Really lovely restaurant that makes you feel at home right away with both indoor and outside seating. I can't say enough about the lovely ladies working there as the customer service was so warm, welcoming and attentive. Really a special place to check out if you're in the area. Will say the sauce is on the sweeter side so be forewarned if that's not your thing but everything was fresh and clearly made with love.

The Chicago dog and what's left of the fries.
Marilyn L.

We love Pusateri's. It has the best Chicago dogs. We prefer the natural casing and there aren't many places that serve it. The fries are great. We don't have to ask to have them crispy because they come that way. We had a small pepperoni pizza after the hot dogs because we were still hungry. Their pizzas are great. I love their tomato sauce because it doesn't have the usual tomato taste. It has a sweetness to it. The antipasto salad has a lot of meat and cheese. When we brought our kids and grandkids there a while ago there was plenty of salad to share along with our meal. The Italian beef sandwich is very good. It's the same as their restaurant in Chicago. Service is fast and the servers are friendly.

The Signature Sausage Pizza

Wow was I shocked. My husband and I are from Fort Lauderdale originally and you could say we are pizza snobs. We have tried it all. This was such a pleasant surprise. Such a unique pizza!!! It was absolutely delicious. The cheese, the sauce, the crust, the sausage. It was like no pizza we've tried before. Definitely recommend. The atmosphere was relaxing and just what we needed. Under a tiki hut with fans blowing & Jimmy Buffet music. What a perfect night. We would travel 30 minutes to get some pizza here again soon. Our waitress was Elise and she was incredible. Knowledgeable, personable, and her timing on everything was exactly what I want. She's always right there when you need her but not hovering. I was just expecting a regular pizza place experience and was very surprised. I'm leaving happy and full

Coming from a Chicago native- I was visiting a friend in the area and she told me about this place. NO place ever outside of Chicago has impressed me that attempts to advertise Chicago pizza. My friends THIS IS IT. literally tastes exactly like Aurelio's from back home- crust, sauce, cheese absolutely perfect. I honestly couldn't believe it, but I had two fantastic days of perfect pizza and can't wait for my friend to visit me to bring me another pie!

Leftovers were awesome too!!!
Kathy S.

Cute little pizza place in Stewart. I went with my south chicago friend and she claims it is closest to chicago pizza she's had. Plenty of sausage and cheese!!!Service was very good and fast. Next time we go I gotta try the chicago hot dog that looked pretty good!!!

This restaurant is consistently great!! We have eaten here…read moreat least a dozen times and it's always a good meal! You can't go wrong with any of the dishes so delicious!!

Located in the out-of-the-way lost river area, La Forchetta is a cute little family-owned Italian…read morerestaurant serving made-from-scratch dishes. They state that for the past 16 years they have used fresh ingredients in all their dishes and you'll notice that fact in every dish. The Ambiance: This lovely little restaurant reminds me of the bistro's I enjoyed in Venice. Get there early as it's always packed and there's not that many tables. They also offer several tables for outside dining. The Service: La Forchetta lost a star here as the service was slow and perfunctory at best. Our server couldn't seem to get her act together and seemed to be flustered by anything out of the norm. If I was to guess, having owned a few restaurants myself, I'd guess she was new and overworked having more tables than she could handle. The Food: A good sign of the quality of your meal is the quality of the salad and bread. Although this time we skipped the salad, the bread, or more precisely the garlic rolls featured the perfect balance of garlic butter and were good enough to be a meal unto themselves. After gorging on the rolls, we decided to share the calamari which turned out to be oh so crispy, and unlike so many other overly chewy offerings, was mouth watering tender. For our entrees, we chose the Penne pasta which was made al dente and featured a wonderfully robust bolognese sauce. Our second entree was the lobster filled raviolis which featured an amply filled fresh lobster covered in a creamy pink sauce. For desert we shared the house specialty tiramisu which was good but not necessarily memorable. The Bottom Line: As with all my reviews my "customer so what" would I come back... the answer is yes, because the food was so good, we'd try it again and hopefully the service would be up to the food.

Having a favorite Italian restaurant in this area, we hesitated trying Uncle Giuseppe's even though…read moreit came highly recommended. The last four or five 'highly recommended" Italian restaurants in the Jensen Beach/Stuart area we tried were OK to even pretty good but not at all memorable or begging another visit so we always went back to our favorite. Felt a little guilty coming here but WOW-we were blown away. We ate here twice before writing this review because I wanted to make sure our first visit wasn't a fluke. On the first visit my wife ordered Shrimp Linguine Fradiavolo which was a generous portion of shrimp over linguine with a wonderfully spicy marinara sauce. (She let me try it). I ordered Gnocchi Sorrentina which I customized to my preferences. Substituted marinara for meat sauce and added some charred Italian sausage. Probably the best gnocchi I've ever had. Portions of both dishes were large enough to take back to enjoy for lunch the next day. On our second visit, my wife had Spaghetti Al Pomodoro and I tried Veal Marsala. Both were north of wonderful! During both visits we also enjoyed fresh garlic bread. Uncle Guiseppe's is busy and noisy. Service is so good you don't notice the "busy" once you're seated. This was our best restaurant find this trip.

Let me start by saying, I have had hundreds of cauliflower pizzas, from many different restaurants. I can't seem to find anywhere that makes them right. I ordered the cauliflower Quatro fomaggi pizza... My husband picked the order up a few minutes past it's prime so we got it a bit cold. Despite the pizza literally being cold by the time it got to my house, it was NO JOKE the best cauliflower pizza I have had in my life. The flavors were spectacular, cheeses were savory and sweet, sauce was ridiculously flavorful and enjoyable. My husband got some lasagna and he enjoyed it thoroughly. We also got the gluten free chocolate mousse cake and it was decadent and sweet. We split it and it was so full of flavor, one slice was enough for us to share. My husband recounted that he's been struggling to eat meals recently and this meal literally brought back his enjoyment for food. We enjoyed the food a lot. I will most definitely be coming in for a sit down experience for the best cauliflower pizza I've ever had in my life. If it's that good cold, I can't imagine how good it is hot. It was so nice to enjoy some high quality food and to be able to stay gluten free

All of the entrees were good sized to huge. I started out with Stracciatella soup which was among the best I've ever had. I followed that with the Veal Piccata.

He still managed to eat every bite because it was so good. They have a decent wine list and an ok beer selection. There was a live band playing in the bar area. It made it fun but a little difficult to talk. I can't wait to come back to the area and try some other things on the menu. I'm confident that you'll enjoy your meal here.

My husband was asked to dance by an older lady and he had a great time. Then my daughter was walking by the band and the guitar player community asked her if she wanted to sing and she just sang away with the band. It was a great experience. Definitely on our list of fav restaurants! Met Josephine; she is a lovely lady.
