The service here is fine. The food is mediocre *at best*. I ordered their "abruzzese" pasta. A relatively simple dish that no legitimate Italian restaurant should be messing up. It's tomato sauce with sliced sausage. It arrived, and I was met with pure disappointment. Dry pasta, with very little red sauce that also seemed dried out, except for the puddle oil at the bottom of the bowl. The sausage was way too salty, also dry with a grainy texture. My dinner was absolutely terrible. The members of our party who ordered the dover sole felt it was simply mediocre. And the calamari appetizer was a bit skimpy on the portion. To top it all off, the markup on wine is insane. We left feeling ripped off. My wife and I will not be returning by choice. read more

I was told about this restaurant from a current long time frequent visitor of Roberto's. When I first heard the name. I thought I'm going to a Mexican restaurant?? I was told in advance that this is authentic Italian food in an authentic Italian neighborhood with authentic Italian people serving in the restaurant !! yes it was!! Chicago style all 100% true !!Now being a native and born in Chicagoland area my whole life never knowing about this restaurant and trying it for the first time with some clients was superb. The ambience was Krystal clean. Service was flipping fantastic and the pizza outstanding thin crust is what they're known for highly recommend keeping it Simple with cheese and sausage !! (as in the picture ) Now the service was top notch ...So Chicagoians..make your drive out to Elmhurst and enjoy. I will be back there again. Cheers. read more

An absolutely awful experience, I gave this place a second chance and I regretted it immediately. 1hr 45 min wait for food and when we asked what was the hold up or when we could expect our food the server said that it wasn't even started. All the tables around has either been served or turned over and yet we didn't get an explanation. The manager refused, pathetically to come out and explain the situation. We didn't cause a fuss and nicely said we'll leave and go somewhere else. They had the audacity to hand us the bill for drinks and salads. No percentage taken off for their greed of over booking, nothing. Pathetic establishment running solely on incompetence. 50 bucks for soggy pizza too the previous time I had visited or got take out. Spent thousands in here entertaining business colleagues and will never go back. read more

Went here to celebrate New Years Eve, and we had a wonderful experience! I'm truly shocked the reviews aren't better, so here I am to set the record straight - Roberto's is a must! Be prepared and wear your walking shoes, this restaurant is massive! It's absolutely beautiful throughout too. There's a walk up, carry out section next door to the restaurant too. Apparently pizza is a big deal here? I'll have to try next time! Our food was incredible - the vodka sauce on the rotolo is phenomenal! I seriously recommend they jar this and sell it. The meatballs on the side are delicious too!! My husband loved his osso bucco as well! And for starters, the house salad - as simple as that is - was soo good! The service was very good, despite it being a very very busy night. I did get the sense that everyone around us was hanging out and in no hurry, whereas we had plans. But still, it was a wonderful time. Can't wait to come back!! read more

I have been ordering the food out for a year you can say I am a fan however, recently the receptionist at pick up have an attitude that they don't want to do more work if I asked even some more sauce. And the fried chicken I order today seems like leftover so dried and very old. So disappointed as I am a fan of the pizza. read more

Delicious food-streaming hot from kitchen and wonderful atmosphere! We will be back!!

Yummy yummy. Risotto is just perfect. Shrimp is cooked perfectly. The sangria is amazing.

Delicious grilled octopus! Linguine with red clam sauce was generous and tasty. Service was great.

The service was great. No issues there. The food was ok. It was expensive and was kind of lacking in taste. I had the halibut con jalapeños for $48. The fish itself was bland and had zero flavor. The flavor was only in the guac that was on top. My kiddo had pasta and meatballs. The pasta sauce had zero flavor other than tomato but she ate it. The meatballs were terrible. They had a weird taste and none of us like them so they were left to go in the garbage. My aunt ordered the veggie lasagna. She said it was good. The restaurant itself was very nice. Nice bar area. Nice vibes. But I wouldn't go back. For 3 of us with no drinks except water and no dessert our bill was over $100. read more

Had a wonderful dining experience! Our server Mario was an absolute pleasure. He knew the menu and had the best recommendations on wine, appetizers and desserts. Make sure you come thirsty, because their wine menu is one of the best I've encountered. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. read more

Our circle of friends is on a kick to try all the Elmhurst restaurants (albeit we don't live in that city) and it's been fun. Roberto's is another find that we all enjoyed the other weekend. Our group of 8 had the best server. I wish I knew his name, but he got all of our dishes correct - was so attentive and just a joy! We started with the fried calamari and burrata. Both dishes were enjoyed by all. I had the veal vesuvio and my husband had the chicken vesuvio. The vesuvio was delicious - veal or chicken. Wonderful mix of herbs and great on the potatoes. Beautiful restaurant - with an outside covered patio and a large back room for larger parties. I felt the noise level was really good and we can hear everyone in our group. Great place for larger groups where you can actually hear each other! read more

Last night I hosted my direct reports for a holiday party in my home. We had Robertos deliver our Antipasto salad, Vodka rigatoni and chicken piccata. We could not have been happier... it was delivered on time, piping hot and delicious. Also the amount of food was perfect for our gathering of 13, just as was shared with us by Robertos. We have enjoyed the restaurant for years and their good service. Now we have the a great experience in our home! Thank you to the Roberto's team. read more

Tried this place for the first time after friends highly suggested it. The restaurant ver a nice atmosphere with an amazing outdoor section. The service was very friendly and professional. Our server was very helpful in choosing a glass of wine. We started off with the fried Calamari, which was nicely battered and fresh for dinner. we had the chicken parmesan, which was a nice size, but the presentation was sloppy. The vodka sauce was amazing. I personally had the special of the day. Breaded bone-in veal chop with Giardiniera. It was spicy but delicious and so happy I ordered it. My reason for giving 3 stars instead of 4 is because the wine list is out of control. That was the only drink list provided. The prices of wine don't match the restaurant and are way too high. I wish the wine prices were better. I had draft beer and provided more than just a wine list. read more

Great neighborhood place. Old school Italian. It's the people that work there that make the place the good restaurant it is

Robertos is a true gem of Elmhurst. We had a waiter name, Dario who was charismatic, honest, and patient which are all great qualities for a waiter, who is waiting on a table of chatty women. He gave us great recommendations and told some jokes we were definitely a fan of him. We ordered the thin crust, pizza, pepperoni, and sausage, and the Caesar salad, and the rigatoni alla vodka with peas and sausage everything was very tasty, and we believe that we ordered the best things on the menu. We ordered it family style and had a blast. Next time we're in Elmhurst, we will definitely stop by again thank you Roberto's for a lovely night out. read more

The absolute best food, a warm and cozy atmosphere, very professional and friendly servers and staff.

This rating would have been higher if service had been even adequate. We've been here before, but not for lunch but their reservations app implied we needed a reservation. So, we reserved a table for 4, but the place was nearly empty when we got there. Told the hostess (who turned out to also be our waitress) that we had a reservation, but she evidently did not cross our name off the list but grabbed menus and led us to a table. One of our party has mobility issues and walks a bit slowly and apparently we weren't moving fast enough because she turned around and said impatiently, "OVER HERE!" When our friend asked a question about the menu, she gave her a brusque answer, as if it was a silly question. I ordered soup and a salad and instead of bringing my meal out with the others, she brought it out first while the rest of our party waited at least 20 minutes to be served. We basically never saw her again until the busboy removed our plates and she came by to ask if we wanted dessert. This was one of those rare times when I was tempted to leave zero tip. Suffice it to say, it'll be a long time before we return to Roberto's. (PS The reservations app contacted me the next day to ask if I had skipped out on my reservation. I'm sure it was because they have a policy about that and have consequences for people who book and then don't show up.) read more

Food was delicious, love the atmosphere, and the service was great! We both graduated from Elmhurst University and always have fond memories of Roberto's pizza! I can't wait to return when we are back in the area! read more

DO NOT GO TO Roberto's Pizza! The servers try to scam on all food and up charge everything. The servers flat out lied to our table and once we called the manager over, they basically did nothing. They overcharged their terrible food. $25 for a kids meal, give me a break. Will never go back. read more

The food is served in bountiful portions. Our group ordered apps: fried calamari, cantaloupe slices wrapped with thinly sliced prosciutto (from the Specials menu), fior di latte, gnocchi with marinara. Main dishes: chicken parmigiana, pesce Bianca con asparagi, zuppa di pesce, to name a few. Red wine, cafe, cappuccino, and a variety of desserts- everything was so fresh, flavorful, al dente, and scrumptious! read more

I used to think I want to go to Roberto's for a special occasion, but truthfully you don't need special reason, It is fantastic anytime. Lunch or dinner. My family was here from Germany and they absolutely loved it! Mario was our waiter ( he is awesome) and Josephine (our waitress on other occasions) is equally fantastic! The food obviously was superb. It was busy but we took our time and enjoyed our drinks and company. I should say there was no leftovers because everything was that damn good! I went home full and bubbly thanks to the wonderful Moscato on the menu. The owner Pasquale stopped by and we enjoyed the personal service. It felt like we were in his home. What a great welcoming feeling I get EVER TIME I visit this place. I try to go a few times a month, and why not? Life is too short to go to bad restaurants and eat bad food. Come here and enjoy life....Love Laura & Dominick read more

Thank you to Robert's Pizza for addressing what was an unpleasant visit. Management was professional and sympathetic. We will most certainly be back for the outstanding pizza. read more

We have now given up going to a restaurant we used to enjoy. Yesterday gave the restaurant a another chance after an experience where we had a reservation for 4 for dinner and was told wait was going to be at least an hour in a crowded area with no bar seats or other space available to wait. Went to another downtown Elmhurst Italian/Seafood restaurant and had a great experience. Yesterday the restaurant was modestly full mid day but only one server. While he worked hard the manager or other help were no where to be seen. Lunch service took over 2 hours and had to wait for our check to the point we were ready to walk out. Food was average and overpriced. Won't be worth the aggravation to go back with so many other options. Shame since we used to look forward to dining at Roberto's. read more

Love this spot - food is always good and the staff friendly. Love the old school white linen table cloths - adds to the warm vibe.

Great pizza, good hard fried breaded wings AND reasonably priced tanqueray martinis! I usually always get carry out and wait for my food with a drinkie drink. read more

This is the best Italian restaurant around, broad menu, quality food! Good wine selection also! Get a pizza to go for later!

I've worked at this gem of a restaurant several times in the past promoting Grey Goose but this was my first time dining here. Nicholas our server was excellent. He was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and on point! I ordered the Abruzzese based on his recommendation and it was phenomenal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting as well as the ambience. Hana the bartender was amazing! I would definitely recommend Roberto's and will definitely be dining here again. read more

The absolute best pizza ever! And wow has it stood the test of time! From when I worked there during high school in the 80's to present it has always had such a commitment to making a quality pizza that puts Lou Malnatis and Gino's (downtown) to shame! It's grown from a small pizza place to this beautiful restaurant that is like a landmark on Spring Rd. Can't wait to get back in town to explore more of their delicious food! read more

After 35 years of patronage we are no longer going to support this family owned restaurant. Why? They refused a $10 coupon that they sent us for our wedding anniversary on Sept 3rd. They said it was expired since it was sent to us August 27. It's only valid for 7 days. Today is the 6th day from our anniversary. NO where on the email does it state that it is valid from the date that it was sent. However, they chose to use the day the sent it to use as the beginning date. Oh...by the way the coupon also states that it's also VALID ON MY ANNVERSARY MONTH. Which is ALL of September. OH BY THE WAY YOUR APP IS HORRIBLE! read more

Have been to Roberto's three times and have had a great experience every time. Food is outstanding, service is top notch and the ambiance is wonderful. We just had my mother's celebration of life luncheon there and the staff did an amazing job!! We had so many compliments on how good the food and service were. Thank you Francisco and team for a phenomenal experience on an otherwise sad day. read more

Among the most delicious Osso Bucco west of the Arno, this unassuming Italian storefront's menu covers the gamut of fresh pasta, carne, pollo and and a selection of appetizers that will knock your calzones -- er, calzini -- off. Service is friendly and professional. The local "Lettuce" restaurants are Olive-Gardenesque in comparison. Boun appetito! read more

GET THE MISTO GRIGLIA! Randomly stopped by after a day of drinking and needed to get dinner before heading home. Shockingly one of the best experiences I've had. The service was phenomenal even though we literally sat maybe an hour before close. The oysters were SO fresh, the bread was delicious and the misto griglia??? Star of the show. The flavor was insane. Don't let the pictures or not enough reviews steer you away cus this is definitely a hidden gem! The amount of seafood in our pasta too? Not stingy at all! Would highly recommend if you're in the area read more
