Ive ate at this Rosatis 10-15 times. I give it a solid four stars. It's very consistent with its product and quality. We order here for my work a lot since it's close and we never have any complaints. As I typically am the one placing the order, I get frustrated with their online ordering system because the coupons I want to use don't always work, and then I have to call in and place the order over the phone and that prevents me from getting the email confirmation that I like to have when ordering for a large group. Sometimes the workers are overly nice and will email me a picture of the receipt which I greatly appreciate! ANYWAY. I highly recommend their rewards program. Seriously. It's one of the better restaurant reward programs I've ever encountered. I got a reward one day for 2 free 14 inch pizzas, free 6pc wing, free garlic cheese bread & a free 2 liter. It was amazing. Their double dough pizza is super filling, I tend to prefer the thin crust. It reminds me of a ma & pop pizza shop in my hometown (in a good way). Their dining area is quaint and small, I didn't have the best service though the one time I dined in over my lunch break, so I've tended to stick to take out. Their delivery service has been prompt and friendly, and they always make sure to give you plenty of Parmesan and pepper flakes, napkins, etc upon request. Overall one of the better pizza chains in the area. read more

Life's too short to eat mediocre pizza. That pretty much sums up my feelings about Rosati's. Stranded on the west side and in need of lunch, the WaunaQueen and I decided to give Rosati's a shot. She ordered a slice of the pepperoni, I opted the Cheef sandwich, Italian Beef with covered with melted mozzarella cheese. Both offerings were exceptionally mediocre. The crust reminded me of what you get with a frozen pizza, dense, overly chewy and flavorless. The sauce had that overcooked, right out of a can flavor. The greasy cheese and pepperoni followed the exceedingly mediocre theme to a T. To make matters worse, my wife's slice came out warm at best, so she had to have the kitchen put it in the oven to warm it up. The Italian Beef sandwich had little going for it in the flavor department, whether it be the spongy bread, the melted slab of chewy mozzarella cheese or the watery ju that accompanied the sandwich. I appreciated the generous serving of beef, but man oh man, I'd trade less beef for more flavor. The crinkle-cut fries came out warm and limp. Service at the front counter was pleasant and efficient. The person at the counter cheerfully greeted us as we entered the restaurant and granted our request for a side of feta cheese to go with my daughter slice of cheese pizza. With a variety of lunch specials, you do not need to spend a fortune on your lunch here. The dining room could serve as a set for Goodfellas, with the Italian music wafting over the speakers, the red and white checked (plastic) tablecloths, elevated private booths and a minimal amount of sunlight filtering in though a small window. The two big screens TVs detracted from the ambiance, but I did appreciate being able check the score of the World Cup match taking place that day. If you are looking for cheap and filling, this is your place. If you are looking for delicious, keep driving past this strip mall outpost. read more

Rosati's is my favorite pizza in the Madison area. There's something magical about the sauce, cheese, and their italian sausage (we roll simple in my household)... Very few pizzas give me that satisfying "hunger quenching" feeling that Rosati's gives me. Unfortunately, that leads to the problem of not knowing when to stop! But that's my problem, not theirs... I've carried out for lunch as well as ate in with the family. I've never been disappointed! The kids love it. I love it. My extended family loves it. It's awesome. The grab-and-go lunch options are nice too (I work nearby). read more

Chicago style pizza! Yes! It had to be authentic Chicago style, since I don't believe I had it ever. Only thing I ever that was remotely close was Bostonized, but that ain't Chicago - at least where I live. Used to the normal chains of Dominos, Pizza Hut, and the rest of them, but coming to a Chicago style pie joint is possibility made in heaven, I gotta say. After getting my pint of chocolate ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery relatively nearby, my Fitchburg friends and I stopped here at Rosati's for a delicious pie that could not be beat. Located on Mineral Pointe Road in the heart of Fitchburg, there is no shortage of parking spaces here, unless you have come on prime time and need a space. Rosati's is within the Clock Tower shopping complex on Mineral Pointe road, nearby the Saigon Noodles I had been to the night before on Odana Road. Plenty of food choices out here. With that in mind, my friend and I ordered take out instead of dining in, so this review is just for the counter service and the food items we bought. I had ordered the 14" Rosati Monster with the double stuffed crust, along with a side order of mozzarella sticks. Let me tell you that I had thought about getting the 16", but when that 14" came out, that monster was crazy huge! And I thought I could have tanked a medium Pizza Hut pizza without any problems. I guess they don't call it the Rosati Monster for nothing! The pizza itself was a meaty cheesy monstrosity that could not be tamed in one sitting. I tried my best, but I could just manage half of it while saving myself for Cold Stone, which I took out 1/4 of it along with the mozzarella sticks before calling it a night. Guess ill be having the rest of it for breakfast and lunch sometime. The pizza itself was rather good and heavy, so that was a feast in itself. I really did enjoy myself with this pizza and hope to do it again soon. The mix of meaty and cheesy was so good, I guess that mixture is total bliss. And it was! The counter service was ok at best. Everyone was moving around like it was crazy busy that night, but whatever works to get everyone's orders straight and make everyone happy and satisfied. They take credit cards, so that always awesome. That made me happy. They also have a dining area / restaurant, so that's nifty, if you choose to dine in here one of these days. Glad we phoned our order in, otherwise, we would have been waiting quite a long time for our order. Glad we made a pitstop at Cold Stone first before coming here. Overall, this plus is a serious recommend for sure. If you enjoy Chicago deep dish and Authentic made, this place is the one to go to. Just 3 hour drive northwest of Chicago, its pretty much the closest to the heart of Chicago if you are craving something from the source, but not willing to drive to the source. Rosati's is your best bet ever! Support local B+ read more

Ordered a deep dish and thought it was soggy. The Italian sausage wasn't seasoned well and the toppings were expensive for what we received. They should also be the size of a bite, not a full slice of green pepper. The sauce was too runny. Expected more of a paste sauce on top. read more

Normally hot fresh and awesome sandwich lunches. We havent done their pizza or dinners. I love the Chicken Parm sandwich. My wife usually gets the Meatball sandwich. Both are great and include choice of side: salid or fries. Great coupons when sign up for their rewards plan. read more

Pizza is great here BUT the personnel is awful. I was having trouble with an online order so I called to just check and see if it went through as I planned to pick it up. The person that answered the phone was clearly frustrated that I called and had trouble trying to figure out how to check. He said they have 6 other online order to check through. I gave him my name and what I order and he had such an attitude I finally said should I order from somewhere else? He hung up on me. Of course I called back and asked if he hung up or did we get disconnected - he said well you said you were going to order from somewhere else and then hung up on me again. ROSATTI'S! What is going on. This could have been turned around so easily. This is what I you get when you try and order local to support small business. Wow. 12.18.2020 4:15 pm You've got problems. read more

My boyfriend and I grabbed a double dough, cheese pizza after arriving late to Madison. We didn't know what to expect because some pizza places are really touch and go but we were pleasantly surprised by the quality and deliciousness of it! If we ever come back to the area, we would eat again. read more

Fast delivery, good pizza, great price. I got a small cheese pizza & it was perfect. I have no complaints at all :D read more

I've been here before, and again, it has surpassed my expectations and has always delivered (no pun intended). I usually only get delivery and that generally takes 45 minutes to an hour, but it's worth the wait. This time I ordered a stuffed crust pizza - I was expecting more of a sandwich/calzone stuffed pizza, but they basically have cheese and toppings between two layers of crust and then the sauce on the top. Still pretty delicious, but a lot like Chicago for me, which is not a bad thing. Also, I ordered a small batch of wings (spicy garlic) and they were delicious. It is hard to find good wings from restaurants that don't feature them, but they did a great job! I usually get their italian beef sandwiches, and they have always been seasoned well and you can get a small cup of au jus on the side for pretty cheap (and you don't necessarily need it). All in all, their pizza and side items are delicious. It's also nice to support local rather than do the national chain restaurants. read more

Very tasty pizza with plenty of cheese. Plus the food came earlier than anticipated, and everything was as ordered.

Madison is a small city. Madison is a small city. Madison is a small city. You see, I have to keep telling myself that because despite what the news and the people of Madison say, think, and want....MADISON IS A SMALL CITY! Why is that important in a Yelp review? Well, with it being a small city...there are many things we cannot get. A good authentic Philly cheesesteak (not the crappy Wisconsin roast beef version), a decent soup place, good Chinese food, alligator, good seafood, a Taco Bell that serves alcohol, and deep dish Chicago pizza....wait what? I have known about Rosati's for years and also knew they had deep dish Chicago pizza and other Chicago favorites. Why only try them recently? Well, I live in Fitchburg so it is not an easy take-out of delivery location for me and....well I was dumb and did not realize they had a seating area. yes, I thought it was only take-out and delivery. Anyway, after a picture on Yelp cleared that up it was time to treat the family on a night I was craving it. So....lets go one item at a time as I have been back a few times in the last few months. DEEP DISH PIZZA: Is the the best? No. Many places in Chicago have that on lock but for Madison.....yes. Ok, they are the only player in town but it was a good cheesy and yummy Chicago deep dish pizza. THIN CRUST PIZZA: Well I have kids and a wife. None of them eat deep dish with me so I always have to get a think crust as well. Eh....it is good but I have had better in Madison. ITALIAN BEEF: What? Where did this come from? Yes you cannot get a good Italian beef in Madison either. Same opinion as the Philly cheesesteak. Well, look no longer because the Italian beef at Rosati's awesome. Dipped, great beef, add some cheese, and giardiniera....hmmm.....yum! Oh....dont get the dough nuggets. They are not very good. So....I like Rosati's a lot and the vast Chicago menu is great for a person like me who loves food in Chicago. My advice to Wisconsin...Stop calling your roast beef sandwiches an Italian beef of Philly Cheesesteak....you just disappoint people! read more

We typically love Rosati's pizza, but tonight's order was definitely not something to love. The Chicago style pizza we ordered was far from the usual. The crust was so hard it was inedible. We ate the topping which were also very lacking. Typically, it would have a very thick layer of cheese, and this one was just one VERY thin layer. Nothing different than a normal pan-style pizza really. Very disappointing. The reason I gave 2 stars was because at least the wings were good. read more

They're liars, they overcharge. I bought two gyros, was overcharged and was given FOUR PACKETS OF SAUCE, which I did not ask for. Manager said that he was going to refund me and never did. Never again read more

Never been here before but have wanted to try it for years. The deep dish pizza did not disappoint. I will be back for sure.

Service: dude was friendly, waitress was helpful. Pizza: got the Chicago deep dish. Ratio of crust to sauce to cheese was on point, leaning a little heavy on the cheese side. Definitely recommend. Wings: the true stars of the show. These bad boys were the best I've ever had. Got the mild buffalo with the ranch dip. Yum! The texture was amazing and the flavor was perfect! read more

I cant stand when a pizza place advertises that they are an original italian familly and put a picture of some old dudes from italy. And when you walk in the place not one italian in site. (Not a racial thing) but if you advertise original italian pizza i expect Original. The pizza is blaa.... not good not bad. Nothing special. The staff is very friendly but that doesnt make the pizza any better. It a clean place and its welcoming but again..... it doesnt make the pizza better. Its like if all there ingredients are shipped in a plastic bag and their dough is shipped wrapped in a plastic and pack into a box. And their cheese is shredded in a factory and shipped also, wich btw amazes me because they are in WI the home of all things dairy. And they cant find local cheese????? Wow only gave it two strars because the staff was friendly. read more

BLEH! Do not ... NOT ... order anything but pizza for delivery, and have tons of napkins or paper towels available to sop up the grease on that. We ordered baked lasagna dinner and ribs with fries dinner tonight. Fries were sloppy floppy sticky starch sticks I wouldn't give my pups (and they love their fries!). I had about 3 bites of the overly bbq'd undercooked ribs before I stopped because I didn't want to become ill. Cooked ribs should not be gray. Apparently the lasagna was ok, he ate that. Last time for this place. read more

Rosati's Pizza - Ribs?? - Pizza Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

Last time we ate there we waited 45 mins for food. That was not a problem, a little anoining but they were very busy so understandable. Apon receiving our food I find my chicken Alfredo was very dry. I opted to keep it and ask for more sause and telling the waitress what was wrong. Wrong thing to do! I got charged for the 1/4 cup of extra sauce. I believe it was $3 or $4 When I nicely ask about it I was told that was the way they did it and she couldn't do anything about it. Haven't been back sence. read more

Greasy pizza with a bitter and grainy blend of cheese on a flavorless crust. I have tried this place multiple times, each time regretting paying for what I got. read more

Their lasagna is great. Available in both meat and no meat versions. Large portions. Yummy!

I like the pizza, but it's not worth the wait time I experienced tonight. Placed an order online, and the website said delivery time would be 60 min. It took 1 hr 45 min for my pizza to arrive. I called a few times to check on it, and I was told each time that the driver was out and would be there soon. 45 min past expected time for delivery is not reasonable. If the issue is with the website and how it is updating expected delivery times, then that needs to be fixed. read more

Ordered for pick up. Waited for 10 minutes past pick up time and asked for order status with very poor response when they found pizza. Front service person stated they've been calling names and it was my fault for not picking up since name was called several time when I was sitting in front of order desk all that time. To make matters worse. Pizza had barely any pepperoni for the pepperoni and cheese pizza order. Disappointing is an understatement for pizza and dough nuggets for how much they charge. read more

This pizza place has a lot of good things going for it! My work recently catered in lunch and I was able to sample some of their thin crust pizza offerings. My initial thought was "this is not thin crust" - but when I think thin, I think cracker thin. That being said a cracker crust would never hold-up to the glorious amount of stretchy cheese and toppings that are present in every bite - so gooey! The establishment remains true to its claim of authentic "Chicago" style with hand-crafted Italian sausage present on many items. I tried the Godfather and I really like the addition of giardiniera and this was far and away my favorite specialty pizza. The sauce was good - not too sweet - and portioned out mildly enough not to over power the bite. Overall it's good pizza and worth the extra couple of dollars for something far more substantial then your average chain! read more

Rosati's was open when other pizza places were not. We needed food and we got it. I have to say that we were all pleasantly surprised with how good everything tasted in our carryout order. We got a couple thin crust pizzas and a salad and my dad an Italian beef sandwich. Three of the four of us are Chicagoans, and it all lived up to Chicago style expectations. This location is pretty small and seems to have a back bar area but mainly I think it's good for take out, especially after 9pm on a weekday (why does everything close at 9 in Madison??) read more

We eat here quite often. I would recommend the deep dish pizza, they also have a place to sit and eat.

I ordered from Rosati's for the first time in a couple years and the pizza is still just fine (this time I went for The Veggie) but what I really wanted were good breadsticks. I'd never tried theirs, but figured since they had decent crust, a decent breadstick would follow. Unfortunately, logic failed me in this department. The price of the breadsticks on the menu were cheap ($2.99), and the quality followed suit. I'm convinced that they are not made in-house, as they were extremely bland and had that spongy, white-bread quality you'd find in a plastic-wrapped package you'd pick up in the grocery store. Another menu item, Nuggets, are billed as pieces of crispy pizza dough tossed in garlic butter sauce. Those go for $6.49, and should have tipped me off that the breadsticks were probably not the best choice. The upside in the long run is that I'll have consumed less bread, but giving me SyscoStix (my own name that I wouldn't be at all surprised to find is a real product) instead of just cutting up some pizza dough was a star-dropping move. What else can't they be bothered to make? read more

If I could give this restaurant 0 stars I would. I ordered a large pepperoni and a medium vegetarian pizza and two small salads and it cost me over $50. The pizza were to be delivered within 45 minutes to an hour and it took an hour and 30 minutes. I opened the boxes to find the thinnest crust I have ever seen on a pizza and they were supposed to be Chicago style. I am not kidding if they were 1/4 inch deep that would be stretching it. There were no identifiable toppings on the pizza except for two pepperoni. Nothing on the vegetarian pizza. I called to speak with the manager and he was quite rude. I've told me that he was not the one that ordered the pizzas and I could probably get a better pizza in the grocery store. He also asked me to not post a negative review because it would hurt his four children. I would not recommend this pizza place. read more

Rosati's Pizza - This is how bad their Chicago style pizza is! They obviously do not know what Chicago style is! Horrible! - Pizza Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

Rosati's gets two stars this time but it could get three or four. The potential is there and if you're going to have pizza in this strip mall, I'd choose the dark, dingy Rosati's over the more wide open, brighter Dahmen's every single time. On our last visit, it was a Saturday around lunchtime and the place was surprisingly busy. The waitress had her hands full, but she held her own. My son and I each ordered a slice of pizza. Mine was served at room temperature. There goes one star. Make it two. The crust on their Chicago-style pizza is chewier, in an overcooked or not-very-fresh sort of way, and less flavorful than others in Chicago, and Madison for that matter. There goes another star. Make a wish. Mine is for a fresher slice of pizza. In past visits, we've had the thin crust. I think Rosati's does this much better. My daughter had mostaccioli with sauce and butter on the side. Anyone can do that, so I'm not going to rate the entree, but I will say the marinara is fresh, thick and well-seasoned. The cheesy garlic bread is a guilty pleasure and a must-order every time, especially when dipped in that marinara. We've had the Friday fish fry. Skip it, but that's on us for ordering a fish fry at a pizza joint. We go to Rosati's fairly frequently and will be back. I think the solution to making this place awesome might be a just a little more attention to quality control. read more

We wanted pizza and this was recommended. We got a couple of thin crust sausage pizzas. It was ok and did the trick, nothing special. The middle pieces on both pizzas lacked sauce, which was confusing. read more

Amazing place. I'm often too hungry to be patient here, but am never disappointed. Knowing how good the food is, it's VERY hard to be patient... And some days we've had to wait about 20 minutes for our food. But it was well worth it, I think. Have never been able to finish an order from here (portions are VERY generous)... Great leftovers! Their pasta is amazing and their pizza is one of the best in town. I've only dined in, never carried out. The dining room isn't huge, but you won't feel like you're suffocating. The lighting is a little dim, and they often have Dean Martin playing in the background. Flat screens at every corner, I believe-- you'll never miss a game or breaking news! Ha! The service is almost always good. The servers are always very nice. First time writing a review for this place (and in general), but I will be sure to add any more info if necessary. Definitely a place to go, any time of the week! You won't regret it! read more

This is our go to pizza place when we want food delivered right to our door or my husband wants to do a quick carryout. We live a few miles down the road and we normally wait between 45 minutes to an hour for deliveries, but only around 20 minutes for carryout. I would say 90% of the time we get this, our food is great for a chain pizza joint. We prefer it much more over Dominos or Pizza Hut. The few times our food is sub par is usually when we order food that isn't pizza. The last couple of times, for example, we ordered jalapeño poppers as a side and when they showed up, all of the breading had fallen off inside the box. There have been other times, however, where they come perfectly fine. I think it depends on the day. The staff have always been very friendly, but we have never actually sat down to eat inside the restaurant so I cannot comment as to the environment. It always seems clean when we are waiting in line for our carryout orders. The delivery staff is always extremely friendly. They even delivered to our specific hotel room a couple of times when my apartment had flooded and I had to move out for repairs. Overall, if you are looking for some decent pizza at a fairly cheap price (for the Madison area), this is a good place! read more

Agh! This is the only place you can get baked ziti in Madison like I could get on Long Island. I love it! Of course it isn't called baked ziti, but it's the same darned thing. I've been there twice in a row, and it's absolutely delicious. Their marinara is really fresh and good, too. The pizza however isn't so hot. read more

The best pizza in town is what they told us when we walked in and they didn't disappoint. I had a calzone that sat in the fridge two days and was still the best I've had. Lasagna was good despite being packed sideways in the take out bag. read more

This is the only pizza place I will order from. They use real ingredients and make a great pie the way I like it, nice and greasy but with solid crust that doesn't turn to mush. We have ordered non-pizza items and been happy with those as well. The chicken ala vodka is great and the meatball parmigiana sandwich rocks! We have never had any problems ordering from here or with deliveries. In fact they always under promise and over deliver on delivery times. And they keep track of my rewards points and apply my discounts without having to ask. Love this place! read more

Sadly I'm downgrading Rosati's. The more I have it the worse and worse it gets. The crust is too much like cardboard for me. And the ingredients are really, really cheap. Rosati's its me, not you...well, its kind of you. read more

I'll judge Rosati's by what they claim to be: an "Authentic Chicago" restaurant featuring pizza, italian beef, and hot dogs. I think they did a very mediocre impression of Chicago's classic food. The thin crust pizza was my favorite: pretty crunchy crust with flavorful sauce and enough cheese (nothing too much but it was at least more than a national chain like Papa Johns. The toppings weren't as plentiful as I'd like. Each slice had two or three pepperoni pieces with a couple sausage bits. I thought the taste reminded me of a Chicago thin crust pizza but was not up to its level. For the Italian beef, it was not comparable at all. Very below-average. Flavorless without copious amounts of either Au jus or giardiniera. The french roll was too soft and had no exterior crisp to it. The prices are a tad high, but for a place that calls itself a specialty restaurant they are what you'd expect. Service is pretty fast and friendly. Overall three stars sums it up: Mediocre. read more

Rosati's always delivers a good tasty meal for your money. Now durning this pandemic when serving food to the public has to be so much extra effort Rosati's has not missed a step. Same great food, same generous servings, same quick service, same efficient and nice people. They feature a different deal everyday and all are even greater value . Of course, I'll go back, I always do but if you have not tried them you are missing out on a fantastic gastronomical delight. read more
