    Classic Ceaser salad! Light crispy and more on the vinegar side of taste , but good!!
    Mark A.

    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.

    Always a great meal. Food is superb. Vibes and setting are great. Service is wonderful. Wish we could come back more if we lived closer .

    So much oil and over cooked, dried out. Look like left over.

    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.

    Halibut con jalapeño

    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.

    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.

    Bone-in veal chop with Giardiniera
    David M.

    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.

The tomato sauce was flavorful, and the shaved Parmesan and arugula complemented the dish beautifully. Unfortunately, the arancini themselves were disappointing, as the coating was much too thick compared to the small amount of rice filling inside. For our entrées, my husband ordered the Chicken Parmigiana. The chicken was unfortunately very dry and overly salted. I chose the pappardelle with short rib ragù. The fresh pasta was excellent--perfectly made with a wonderful texture--but the ragù was also overly salted, which overshadowed what could have been a great dish. One of the highlights of our evening was the service. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service throughout our meal. The hostess, who may have been the owner, also stopped by our table to check on us, which we appreciated. Overall, this certainly wasn't the worst Italian restaurant we've visited, and there were several things we enjoyed. However, the entrées ultimately fell short of our expectations, especially for a special dinner.

After a few minutes, we're brought bread and a nice oil with an olive salad, balsamic and cheese. Excellent start. Except... no waiter or waitress for at least 10 minutes. That's OK. We've got our ice waters. After our drink orders we taken, we were certain after about 15 more minutes that our waitress forgot about us. Not only that... it was extremely hard to get her attention. Finally got our lunch order in and the food was out not too long thereafter. The chicken parm was average. A little too well cooked and burnt on the edges. The cheese, sauce, and pasta were all good. The piccata was also just ok. Perhaps there are other things on the menu that this place does a lot better? I'm hoping so. The restaurant itself was nice with a ton of tables... and not too jam packed. Has a definite Italian feel. The porch/patio is nice with a cover and side walls for when it's cooler or there's weather. For the price point (greater than a $60 lunch for 2 people without alcohol), there are too many other excellent places in the immediate area. Would have to be convinced to come back and try something else.

That filled up quickly, I might add! They have an extensive drink menu, and some great specialty drinks. We started with the Four Cheese Aranchini. Not too bad. The outside was quite hard, and I do wish I knew all four cheeses were in it. The pasta we had was fabulous. My husband ordered the Spaghetti Carbonara. I had a bite, and the cream sauce in that was absolutely delicious. I went out on a limb and ordered something I normally wouldn't, and got the Truffle Fondue Cappellacci. Which is a folded pasta, almost like a ravioli. But I would have to say better. It had a black truffle brown butter sauce on it and I was wondering if it may be a little too sweet, but the aged balsamic was perfect enough to cut through it. And the toasted pistachios on top gave it a slight crunch. The dish was perfect! Just perfect. I ate the whole thing except for one piece of pasta. Who doesn't love fresh pasta, especially when done right & great flavors! Wow. We will be back. We ordered desert to go, so I didn't get any pics but that was probably the best tiramisu I've ever had. I have never had a tiramisu with orange mascarpone in it, but that was something else!!

Q's has had my interest since discovering it sometime ago while in search of "pizza". At the time of my discovery, its 4.6 rating out of (120+) was the assurance I needed that I would have a quality experience, plus an endorsement from my barber. Looking through the menu, I took interest in items like the baked tilapia, eggplant sandwich, eggplant parmigiana, shrimp alfredo, pasta with broccoli sauce, and their pizza of course! Out of all, I ended up ordering their eggplant sandwich, which came with a side of crinkle cut fries. Whether it be Grubhub or Uber Eats, I love ordering online because it is convenient. Most of the time my orders are completed upon my arrival or near complete. By the time I arrived at Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria my order was waiting behind the counter during this ordering experience. Picking up was just confirming my name, ordering platform, and I was well on my way. I am grateful to have had a smooth online ordering experience because the likelihood of me ordering online again at the location is very high. As for my order, the eggplant sandwich smelled so wonderful once I got inside my vehicle and got my first whiff of it. It was then that I realized I had a 12.7-mile drive back to my residence in Chicago. If there was any time I would have loved for someone to take the wheel of my vehicle, it would have been that moment so that I could enjoy my eggplant sandwich. I was pleased to see the generous portions given of the eggplant sandwich and crinkle cut fries once I opened the styrofoam container. Oh my was it delicious! I will say this! Eggplant sandwiches taste better than the name appears if you have not had one before. I am quite positive that I will order it again as time goes by because it sure was satisfying. So satisfying and filling that I did not have any room for the crinkle cut fries, which I barely touched and ended up eating the following day. If you are looking for something to order on the menu at Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria, I recommend the eggplant sandwich because you will not be let down. In closing I had a good experience as I have indicated in this review of Q's Restaurant & Pizzeria. I could surely see myself ordering from again off-and-on when I am in the area likely for a haircut. And as it was introduced to me via Uber Eats, I share my endorsement of it as well with you all on yelp.
