The Patio Italian Restaurant

Like one of the reviewers said if you want great Italian food go to an Italian neighborhood. The food here is OK, the bread sticks and tomato sauce are always good and hot and delicious as a free appetizer while waiting for your meal.  The pizza is average to above average and the other dishes seem to appears and taste kind of average, nothing that knocks your sock off and makes you start moaning over the taste. BUT they have WONDERFUL cakes that have slices so large two people can eat one slice. 5 stars on the cake! I go to this restaurant almost monthly due to the pizza and cake.

If you like flavorless, americanized Italian food in portions no human could ever consume...then this is the place for you!!

If you like bad service...come on in!

My table was decently happy...but only because they are a bunch of old ladies from the south. Most southerners wouldn't know real good food if it slapped them in the face.

I live in an old old old Italian neighborhood in Chicago. I have had REAL Italian food. I work in a REAL Italian bakery.

The Patio was disgusting. My shrimp alfredo tasted like butter. No seasoning. Very few shrimp.

Our server checked on us once...and that was before we got our food. We were a table of 10 and never got soda or water refills.
