We drive to Kenosha from Racine for the pizza here. The first three times to this place were wonderful, the pizza was fabulous and the service was good. The fourth time was unpleasant. We arrived at our usual time (after work, around 10:30 on a Saturday night). The menu says they serve until midnight on Saturdays, and after a wave of tables left around us at about 10:45 pm all of the chairs were put up on the tables and the bar lights were shut off right before we got our food. As we were eating I needed a little more au jus for my bone-dry Italian beef  to which the waiter replied, I'm sorry, the kitchen is closed. I was confused because he hadn't yet asked us how our food was. What if there was a mistake and it needed to be remade? This is at 11:00. I convinced him to bring me cold au jus. All three of us then asked for boxes (not even halfway through our meals) and left in a hurry.  I have 10 years experience in the restaurant and beverage industry and I definitely know that there are "off-days." but usually they are not a on a Saturday night. I believe that if the kitchen is closing early for some reason (it happens sometimes, I get it) tables should be notified in case they need to make any last minute orders of anything. This is how most bars work with a last call, it's a courtesy I usually expect but maybe I should not anymore. This kind of treatment turned me off completely especially since we had great experiences previously. After spending $60 on dinner, a few drinks and a tip I will not be back. In case anyone from the restaurant reads this----a little advice I learned a long time ago, don't put all of your chairs up while your patrons are eating, it makes them feel like they need to leave.
Review Source:Oh my gosh, we LOVE this place! We are from Chicago (Kaiser's is from Northern IL), but not pizza snobs. That said, we KNOW our pizza. I was a restaurant manager for years, and this place has the stones to compete. All styles of the pizza are great. We love the AYCE thin-crust during the week. They have a 20% coupon, so we use that sometimes for the double-decker pizza which is among the best we've ever had.
Sandwiches, nachos, kids meals, and lunch specials are all pretty great. We try to make it here a couple times a month, and bring family when they're in from out of town. So happy they followed us up here!
My friend and I come here for the (AWESOME) fried green beans. The cooks were taking a little longer than expected to cook my fish (I hardly even noticed, I was too busy enjoying our green beans) and the server and manager/owner graciously came over and said they weren't going to charge me for my meal! What great customer service.
Review Source:This place was so-so in my opinion. Â Pizza here seems over hyped but then again calling yourselves "world famous" could work against you. Â The wait staff is nice, ambiance was a little too dim that day, which made me drowsy. Again, I wasn't impressed by the pizza. :( Â I will be sure to try something other than pizza, next time I stop in, to see if my opinion of this restaurant may change.
Review Source:We went in for pizza and beer tonight and they only got one of the three pizzas we ordered in their system and ready to eat-
20 minutes after ordering  They said they had a computer problem and told us the two pizzas would be up in 15 minutes and it ended up being 30 minutes, with no one updating us in the time.  We had a small child with us and they offered to bring us fries for him. When our waitress came by again over 20 minutes later, she was very rude and said she wasn't the one cooking the pizzas, but they should be up pretty soon.  When the bill finally came, they only comped the fries and put auto- gratuity on the bill.  When we asked about it, the manager told us it had only been 15 minutes and that we were wrong. I had set the timer on my phone, but she refused to believe it a did not remove the auto-grat. There pizza is very good, but their service was terrible.  The six of us will never go back.
Kaiser's pizza is great. M-Th is all you can eat for five bucks and change (one topping, plus a drink purchase.) Not a bad deal. Kiersten the bartender is so nice and attentive, she's just so dang peachy! There are food specials every day of the week; just check the blackboard over the bar area. Full menu and full bar. Drink specials change monthly (sometimes weekly too!) Crowd is busy and loud after work, but usually calms down to a quiet around 9pm and you can enjoy any game you want on the four televisions. XM radio is a plus too... just don't play the 80s anymore!
Review Source:I love their pizza!!!! Â You must eat it there, it just doesn't taste the same when you take it home the steam in the box just softens the crust. Â The crust is thin and crispy when eaten there and the atmosphere is wonderful. Â They have nights that it is all you can eat pizza that is definately worth it if you want to try several different toppings or combinations. Â They also have specials where pizza's are half off at times. Â I cant say much about other menu items since I just cant pass up having pizza every time.
Review Source:We had the opportunity to revisit Kaiser's last night for dinner. Â Our group of 8 made reservations the night before. Â About two hours before our dinner reservation for Saturday night, I received a phone call from Kaiser's advising that their pizza oven was on the fritz and no pizza would be available....did we want to cancel our reservations? Â We chose not to cancel as this was a half way point for meeting our friends at. Â I must say that I give Kaiser's a "high five" for the phone call.
Because pizza was off the menu for the night, our 6:30 reservation was not needed as there were plenty of tables open, but they had an area set up for us anyway. Â Our group ordered a variety of sandwiches which were all approved as very good. Â I ordered a Bleu Burger with fries, I asked for medium rare, it came out well done which was very dry and didn't have much taste. Â I should have ordered the Reuben sandwich as the one I saw looked to be a much better choice.
Sitting at our table with friends and talking was what made up for the lack of pizza as conversation was very easy to understand and enjoyable and the beer was cold.
Although Kaiser's was having an off night, we hope to make it back again for a retry on pizza. Â I believe Kaisers staff was on the ball with the phone call as it would have been more disappointing to drive 65 miles and then find out there would be no pizza. Â At least we had a "heads up" before we got there.
This is a great local place for a range of good food. We really like the thin crust pizza there. It is outstanding. They have a selection of really good sandwiches as well. The steak sandwich is especially awesome. The restaurant is clean, though most of the time I get things delivered to my house. I have eaten here and ordered out from here many times and I have never had a bad experience.
Review Source:Being from Kenosha-in the land of what was once called Little Italy back in the day-You know you have alot of Pizza options. I have to be honest-I loved their pizza! The waiter was a bit slow but friendly.
I had a pepsi-and the fried green beans were just ok-I actually felt like they had an odd after taste. wierd.
I would highly reccomend the pizza(and that says a lot-especially since we have Valeos,Tenutas,Luigisand Luisas...Pizza heaven
Believe it or not, if you're from Chicago, there ARE a few reasons to go to Kenosha. First off, you can get on there on the Metra. So if you live in the city, it will only cost you $7 for a weekend pass. Not bad!
Anyway, we spent an entire Saturday up in Kenosha for the day. Our last stop was at Kaiser's. We had seen some of the good Yelp reviews, and we were in the mood for pizza, so we decided to give it a try. We did a half green peppers and half sausage thin crust pie. It was spectacular! If you are a fan of thin crust pizza, you will LOVE Kaisers. Every bite has a hint of crustiness to it (I mean that in a good way!). The atmosphere of the restaurant/bar is really nothing special, but it was definitely crowded so I'd recommend going early on the weekend. I guess there's not a ton else to do out there, so everybody is hitting up Kaiser's on Saturday night.
And perhaps best of all, they have a few New Glarus beers. Since New Glarus isn't sold in Illinois, it was a nice surprise to see it on tap here.
If you're in Kenosha for the day, or even for a few hours, you couldn't do much better than stopping by Kaisers for food, beer, or both. If you are coming in on the Metra, it is a short walk to Kaiser's (maybe 10 minutes), but it's definitely doable.
K.ind of loud atmosphere, and dimly lit at our booth.
A- pizza, soft crispy crust, good toppings, yummy sauce, but pretty greasy.
I loved watching my dad happily devour his Italian beef sandwich.
S.mirky waitress messed up our order, bur fixed it in the end.
E.veryone loves huge plastic drinking glasses filled with bubbly soda.
R.ad selection on the menu, lots to try - not just pizza.
I've taken the family to Kaisers twice, and will continue to go back. Â Nice atmosphere in the bar area, a little less so in the dining room. Â The food is good, we've had a variety of the pizza's (Buf chix, cheese & Sausage, build your own, etc) all good. Â The wife liked the Taco Salad, I would skip the fish fry (too much batter = too greasy). Â Tried the fried green beans, interesting novelty but won't order again. Â Great deals on the pizza Monday-Thursday. Â Hope to see you there.
Review Source:Tonight we spun the restaurant wheel and it landed on Kaiser's which currently holds the prize (in my book) for the best pan pizza in town. Â But we weren't really in the mood for pizza so we opted for the rest of the menu which is not especially expansive. Â We started with the Beer Nuggets, which is pizza dough cut into chunks with olive oil & parmesean cheese and marinara to dip them in. Â They were perfectly done, and I could have made a meal out of them with a salad on the side, but I also ordered the steak sandwich too. Â Two nice pieces of ribeye steak smothered in mushrooms and grilled onions were perfectly cooked and nestled on a large bun with fries on one side and a nice dish of coleslaw on the other. Â My dinner guests had the BLT, very nicely done with homemade potato chips, and the sausage/beef combo was huge and nicely put together. Â All in all it was a pleasant meal with good food at a good price.
Review Source:I would stick with pizza. Â My companion and I couldn't agree on which toppings to get, so we decided to go with sandwiches instead. Â He really liked the coleslaw. Â The fries were very salty. Â Service was so-so. Â They were fairly busy. Â I've been to their Gurnee location twice and enjoyed the pizza. Â Not a bad place but nothing special.
Review Source:Great for what it is. Â
Basic pizza but nothing to write home to mom about - except for the price!
Got the deep fried green beans for an appetizer - which came with ranch dressing. Â They were good and it was something different to try.
We went on a Thursday night and got the all you can eat meal. How it works is you pay five bucks, plus the price of a drink to eat all the pizza you want. Â You order a pizza in whatever you size you want with one topping and they make it for you fresh. Â You can then add additional toppings for 80 cents each. Â We got the sausage the first time, then a canadian bacon/pineapple for the second one - in 9 inches both. Â It only took about 8 mins or so for the new pizza to come. Â I got a Diet Pepsi, my hubbie got the Iced Tea - quick to refill!
Parent's Note -
They have high chairs, but we choose to sit in a booth and let her hang out in the corner. Â We brought a coloring book for her, although they obviously have crayons and coloring pages for kids too. Â Didn't use the bathroom, so I don't know about the changing table situation.
Kaiser's is one of the places I will order pizza in town, and yes I am a bit picky with my pie. Â The biggest detractor of Kaiser's is that they are less than stellar with getting any deviations from the normal. Â Want extra sauce for your beer nuggets, good luck (though the beer nuggets are fantastic). Â My friends and I order from them somewhat regularly, despite the regularity that our orders are messed up. Â I guess that we continue to order there says something about their food, that it is worth the Kaiser's Roulette.
Review Source:An escape to Kenosha left my BF and I craving some pizza when left befuddled by all the fancy pants eateries in walking distance from where we were staying.
It was a weeknight and the place was jam packed with kids and parties. SO LOUD! The pizza options were okay, the pie itself wasn't anything to write home about. It could be one of those magical places where the food is a lot more satisfying after a few beers.
Go there if you're in a group.
On a rare 50 degree Saturday, a friend and I decided to take a roadtrip to Kenosha for lunch. The Trip did not start out well. Our first choice was completely wheelchair inaccessible and our second choice scared us off right after we walked in the door. Nothing specific, just a weird nasty vibe.
Finally, we decided on Kaiser's Pizza and Pub. As soon as we walked in, I knew we made the right decision.The entrance was very easy to navigate and there was a ramp leading from the bar area to the restaurant area. As soon as we sat down, we could smell the wonderful aroma of Pizza wafting through the air. This is a very casual place so the menus were already on the table, so we just started scanning. I was surprised by the number of choices. They have everything from Pizza to Stuffed Baked Potatoes. Everything sounded good, but maybe I was just starved from the drive and the long delay trying to find a place I could get in!
We decided get an Appetizer Platter and a Specialty Pizza called The Beast. The appetizer was enough to feed a small army! It had Chicken Strips, Breaded Ravioli, Mushrooms, Onion Rings and Mozzarella sticks. When we asked for a box our waitress told us that it was actually a full order of each item. If these weren't homemade, They get some very high quality frozen product, because everything was excellent!
The Beast is essentially an Italian Beef Sandwich on a Pizza. It had Roast Beef, onions, green peppers, and hot jardiniere. I have a new favorite pizza! The crust was cooked perfectly and the flavors of the toppings and sauce really mixed well! I know I will be back to Kenosha soon, but next time I will head straight to Kaiser's!!!
Right now have to say that Kaiser's is the best ultra thin-crust pizza in town.
And yes I know what I'm talking about. I have tons of pizza eating experience ha. Villa D'Carlo is still good but they don't have the same taste as Kaiser's. Casa Capri has fallen off and isn't as good as it used to be.
The first time I went here during the first week or so the thin-crust wasn't that great but now they figured it out and it's been consistently great. It's cooked well-done in order to get a crispy crust with all the toppings. The sausage is outstanding as well as the pepperoni and the sauce is a great twist of spicy and tangy, very tasty.
Heard that the hamburgers are real good too but so far outside of pizza, the only things I've had are some very good appetizers including outstanding onion rings and baked raviolis.
It's a great place to take a family or watch a game on the bar side. It's been real busy so call ahead if you're going with a group.
This is where Stonewall Grill used to be. Â I go to Kaiser's in Mundelein for lunch and I thought I'd try this one as long as I was in good old K-Town.
Come here and get a Kaiser Burger (stuffed with muchrooms, onions, cheese, and peppers) or be laughed at by your peers for the rest of your life. Â Actually, all their burgers are awesome. Â I don't know why their pizza is what they promote and what is advertised. Â I don't think their pizza is all that great, but their burgers are.
They are also very brave with that Cubs sign in Wisconsin.
