This place is absolutely nasty. Â My friend ordered from here to serve 8 guests and was embarrassed by the food quality. Â Pizza that you were served in elementary school tastes better than this. Â We jokingly chewed on the cardboard box which actually had a better taste than the crust of the pizza.
Our other dishes included a chicken salad that was supposed to have chicken breast but instead had what looked like canned chicken on some expired lettuce. Â Really not a good choice with so much available in Chicago. Â Save yourself the grief of having to throw away the food and find something else for dinner.
How do I begin? With sadness...Growing up in the suburbs, I had a very favorable memory of Rosati's. Eaten there more times than I can recall. However something went horribly wrong on 1/04/2013 at 7:27 PM on invoice 0011 (at least that's what my CC receipt says).
First it was way late, a good hour and twenty minutes. Second the food was horrible. I mean horrible. Even my drunk friends would not eat the pizza. What does that tell you? The ribs were right out of the freezer or so it seemed. Inedible. The chicken salad was a joke. Small diced chicken on a chicken breast salad which was wilted was not what we expected or envisioned. Six different people tried this food, not one item was what it should have or more importantly could have been. And to top it off, I was the one who persuaded everyone to order from Rosati's. $45.32 was my bill which a few days later went into the garbage. I will never spend again with this place.
Not good, not good,not good. I thought about returning the food, then about sending it UPS because I don't like confrontation, then I thought it would make me a cranky old man  then I just moved on. Like a bad relationship, you get over it but don't want to see the person again.
With soooo many other pizza places asking for your business, I can't believe they can continue to operate this way..Very sad to share this experience.
Get it together guys.
There are a zillion options for pizza in Chicago. If you think this is good, you have no taste buds. The crust tastes like cardboard. I imagine it's a frozen product outsourced from a food service company or at best made long before in a company commissary. Bottom line, it's not good and for crappy crust and mediocre toppings it's expensive. Seriously, if you're not going to get something a cut above, save your money and order Dominoes or Pizza Hut. It tastes better.
Review Source:This place is disgusting. I bought (3) slices of pizza + 3 cokes  and they guy touched them with his bare hands - ugh. There goes $14 down the drain. I didn't even bother to dispuse it because I thought he might cut me.
This place is a dump  - go down 2-3 blocks S. on same side of the street for a better pizza by the slice. Looks like typical uptown but the place is hoppin'. Your  first indication of a good place there are people.
Rosati's on weekend afternoon was a ghost town. Keep drivin' by or don't ring the bell on the 36.
I have been to this Rosatis before and it is fine pizza for your late night needs.  However, last Saturday evening, at 11:30 pm, over 2 hours before closing time, my boyfriend and I stopped into your store for a slice of pizza.  We saw there were no slices sitting out so we asked for a couple slices and were told that would be impossible.  We would have to order a pizza instead.  What kind of pizza place doesn't provide a slice of pizza when there is a huge NEON sign in the window  stating "Slices of Pizza!".  Even worse, we were made to feel like the bad guy because we were asking for something unreasonable. I was shocked at the behavior and lack of customer service in the store.  They did give us a phone number to call and voice our complaints and even told us to ask for "Dean".  I was hung up on twice when I called that number and the third time a woman told me to call back around 1am and maybe Dean would be available, then she hung up on me too. Â
This whole situation has left an awful taste in my mouth and I am truly disappointed in Rosatis and every single one of the employees that I had an interaction with that evening. Â Thankfully, Papa Ray's is a couple blocks over and is always capable of providing amazing slices anytime of day.
My friend and I were starving after a long night of class....went on grub hub..typed in pizza...picked Rosati's. And it twas DELICOUSSS! Arrived in 30 minutes like it said it would so that was awesome especially since my small intestines was practically eating it self. Pizza was a little cold but hey it's delivery...I don't expect it to be steaming hot. I just popped that shit in the microwave for a good 20 seconds and BOOM perfect. Then I practically swallowed the pizza whole....cheesy deliciousness!
I would for sure order from them again!
This place is a JOKE. Â My friend says she orders from here all the time so for her birthday she ordered a lot of food for everyone.
Order:
Pepperoni Pizza
Cheese Pizza
French Fries
Chicken Tenders
Italian Salad
Mozzarella Sticks
She ordered on grub hub and they quote delivery time to the minute... not to be rude but they were a few minutes late. Â This wouldn't have been an issue if they had delivered everything she ordered and if the food was hot. Â Sorry, not true. Â They forgot the mozzarella sticks and the food (pizza and steam order was cold). Â I know it's hard to deliver French fries in the tasty, crispy fashion everyone loves. Â But it's bad when even pizza is cold. Â
I called the place up immediately to mention the missing mozz sticks. Â The guy gives me attitude and says I am calling the wrong Rosati's - wrong, I am calling the number on the receipt I just was delivered. Â Then he pulls up the order and says "oh he forgot your mozz sticks, well we can just credit your acct for the next time you order". Â I say "no, we ordered them and we would like to have them." Â More attitude about having to delivery only mozz sticks and well this is going to take 45 minutes now. Â "Really, sir? Â 45 minutes for an appetizer your driver forgot to delivery and we ordered and waited for and paid for?" Â His response (my favorite) "it's a Friday night, it's how it goes...". Â I mumble something about how fantastic this customer service is and we hang the phone. Â
After such a rude conversation my friend decides to call back to complain about the cold food and mainly the inedible, soggy fries and chicken. Â A woman answered and passed the phone on to my best friend who I originally talked to. Â Now cranky pants is even more mad that we, the paying customer, are not satisfied with the crappy food we just got delivered. Â So now, he starts going off about replacing everything from the kitchen. Â Fine, that sounds good to me... I mean, I'd rather eat good food then soggy crappy food oh and can you remember those mozz sticks this time? Â Dude goes off the handle and says he is going to double the order of mozz sticks. Â Fine, I guess I am the big winner! More fried food. Â The food shows up, in a soggy bag. Â This time edible but still soggy and still not good. Â I guess moral of the story is don't order fried food delivered? Or wait... don't order from Rosatis. Â This place sucks and their phone dude - manager - whatever he is has his pantiess in a bunch and seriously needs to reconsider the line of work he is. Â If you hate your job, hate your life... not my problem. Â Because you're not even good at it anyways.
Rosatis on Broadway, you are dead to me.
The first bite of one of their pies reminded of the generic garbage you get from Dominick's or Jewel's. Haven't had one in a while? Try Rosati's. The place where you can get a pizza on par with "Tombstone" for twice the price. Sorry, but why was my pie so damn watery? The crust was so soggy and we just picked our pie up. Couldn't have been more than five minutes sitting. I'll tell you why. Because the goofs in the kitchen don't know how long a pie should cook. I honestly would have been more pleased with a frozen Gino's East pizza for nearly three times less the cost at the supermarket. Never again Rosati's. Check Google reviews for a more accurate description of this hell hole.
Review Source:Just moved to Chicago and wanted to see what this whole Chicago pizza ordeal was about. Someone suggested Rosati's since they delivered to my house. Ordered a thin crust mushroom pizza and side salad. Price was meh; not used to paying $30 for pizza in my hometown. Received the food in due time, nice delivery person. The salad had green peppers in it, which was a weird first for me. The pizza was what I believe is a thick/deep dish pizza, not the thin I ordered. I tried it anyway and loved it. Will order again.
Review Source:Do you know what it's like, when you've had a hard week, and you get home and maybe pour a glass of wine, and you think to yourself, pizza would be really good right now? That feeling you get when you realize, you gotta have it? All the cheese, all the fat, all the pepperoni, and the calories don't matter, the price doesn't matter, you just have to have some pizza? When I know I need to dive into a slice, or maybe more than a slice, I call Rosati's.
I cant tell you about Rosati's whole menu, wide selection, or any of that stuff. When I gotta have it, I want a Pepperoni Pleaser pizza. So tonight, I called. I ordered. They said 45-60 minutes. They delivered early. The pizza was hot, fresh, spicy, and the cheese was just the right consistency. This is the life, I said to myself. When I absolutely have to have it, Rosati's delivers. Literally. They did. I ate. It was F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!!!! Fabulous! I'm in hog heaven.
Just what I needed, when I needed. I love living in Chicago.
This place is pretty good. It's only a block away from my apartment so I've gotten the pleasure of enjoying some great pizza. I forget that pizza is a big deal in Chicago and that stuffed crust can mean deep dish. I ordered what I expected to be a stuffed crust pizza, but got a giant deep dish and I love deep dish so it was a welcome surprise. It was a 14 inch peperoni pizza for $25. Huge, yummy, and at a good price. They also have tons of other stuff on their menu like burgers, sandwiches, and ribs. Enjoy!
Review Source:I order from here all the time using grub hub and usually get it delivered, but tonight I decided to do pick up because I'm so close and my friend and I didn't feel like waiting an hour. When we got there the guy working remembered that I usually get delivery and whatnot and said he gave me the next size up! The pizza is awesome and the staff is obviously great. I love this place.
Review Source:BRING ME SOME 'ZA, I NEED MY FIX.
Rosati's has become our go-to for pizza delivery. We are partial to the
DOUBLE DOUGH
It's regular pizza, but the crust is handrolled over itself, making a thicker, chewier crust. It's super delicious. They lay the cheese and toppins' on thick, as well. The mozzarella cheese sticks are also pretty awesome. Perfectly seasoned.
We've only ever ordered delivery and it always gets to us within an hour.
Ordered their Chicago style pizza this weekend, a bit blah. It had the double-dough hand-rolled edges, but was a bit on the thin side. I think I was expecting more deep-dish, so I'll give that a try next time. Still quality sauce / ingredients, it just wasn't my cup of tea with the Chicago style.
My wife had a hamburger as she was skipping pizza, and it was a tad overcooked and rubbery. Stick with the pizza!
Rosati's is literally right next door to my work, so I've been there occasionally. Â It's nothing special. Â The pizza is decent, and cheap enough. Â I'd never go out of my way to go there, but for less than 5 bucks (maybe even less than 4), you can get a slice and soda and that is something that I appreciate in a food establishment near my workplace. Â But like I said, this isn't a place to go to get great pizza. Â Come here if you're really hungry and want to fill up on average pizza for cheap. Â I've done it before. Â I'll probably do it again.
Review Source:The first time I ordered from them was when I had fam in town. They were excited to try their deep dish and thin crust. However, they had twisted up the items and placed the wrong items on the wrong pizza. BUT we called and they made it right by giving us a credit.
I just called to get the credit and they had it under my phone # so no issue! Plus the guy that answered was really nice and wanted to know what they had done wrong before. No attitude about receiving the credit, which has happened in the past w/ other places.
I'd order again just because they were so nice!
Ps-the pizza is good, too:)
I would really rate this 2.5 stars but I could only rate full stars. Now let's get to the review. It's an ok pizza place, nothing special but not bad. It kind of reminded of a good frozen pizza, I know your thinking that's an oxymoron but that's why I rated it ok. The pizza has a good crust with bland cheese and a plain sauce. The service is good and the place is small. It does have a very small sitting area and is mainly a take out restaurant. As for the prices, it's about average. Note:They may have a bathroom but they are reluctant to let customers use it.
Review Source:I think some pizza places, especially Chicago ones, get caught up in making, well, Chicago style pizzas ... that being stuffed, and really lose the art of making quick, thin crust pizzas, which I'm more of a fan anyhow. Â Rosatti's has it nailed, and delivers pretty quick. Â We ordered 3 last night, and there had them there within 25 minutes.
Review Source:Disgusting. Â My friend wanted Bosco sticks, so we grub hubbed places that had them, and Rosati's was one of them. Â Their pizza isn't edible and they deep fry their bosco sticks? Â They take a concept as wonderful as cheese and bread and somehow make it gross, I don't even know how that's possible.
One medium pizza between five girls and we only managed to eat one slice each.
Rosati's was my favorite pizza growing up as a kid. Â So I was thrilled when I found out there was a Rosati's that delivered to my house! Â
It was tricky trying to figure out what to order as their online menu was hard to read. Â Once I did get to it, I realized there weren't many choices.
So we ordered salad and pizza. Â The salad was gross. Â The lettuce was not so fresh, cheap and had very few ingredients beyond lettuce.
The pizza was pretty good. Â Not exactly how I remembered it as a kid but good sauce, quarter-inch crust, and good cheese. Â They cooked it perfectly which always helps!
My husband didn't like the pizza so we'll probably stick with D'Ags.
i try this place  #1 the service not friendly  no spanish no english heloo!!  #2 the cook have a pony tail no hair net  and smokin out  side ,the pale,for pizza and trays in the floor, no plastic gloves?  #3 i order the sausague and italian beff combo and a can of soda ..................tini small sausague not flavor,not spicy bla bla bla,beef not cook  the cashier forget my soda wtf!!city inspectors have to check out this place im working and the restaurant bussines and this place have a lott os violacions.  one star tooo much......................
Review Source:Not a big fan of their sauce, and their toppings/cheese are sorta bland. Service is great, but unfortunately it's about the only redeeming quality. Plus they seem to have a very rough time cutting pizzas for some reason. My last pizza was a thin crust, and was not cut in squares nor triangles. No my friends, I received diamonds. Quite possibly the strangest thing I've ever seen a pizza cut as. Some pizzas were literally smaller than a cracker, while one piece made up a quarter of the 18" pizza. Bizarre.
Review Source:Friday night after Lolla, my husband wanted pizza, closest pizza place to home = Rosati's. Â I ordered a large double dough with pepperoni from when he got to the Belmont station, was ready when he got off at Lawrence.
It was heavenly. Â Perfect tang on the sauce, no skimping on the pepperoni, and delicious crust.
Although we order deep dish 99% of the time in our house, this will be our new alternative.
I'm pretty picky, being born and raised in New York, and very few pizza places live up to my expectations.
Rosati's did. Â The pizza was good and cut into triangles without me even having to ask (squares are for just that, squares). Â The delivery took way less than Grub Hub said it would and the food was super hot when it got there.
The pepperoni was a little overcooked though, but over all this place hits the spot. I mean, it's pizza and it's good. 'Nuff said.
Pizza is my crack, and Rosati's is my latest pusher.
I've lived near this Rosati's for years, yet never ordered from them. Perhaps due to my fear of strip malls. Lately I've been trying some new pizza joints, 'cause you can't order from CW Napkin all the time (despite their carrot cake), and Brandon H's review caught my eye. I did not get the double dough he suggested, but I did get the pan pizza.
Come to papa.
This is not the finest pizza in Chicago, but it's some damn fine pie. Most pizza places, something stands out -- the crust, the sauce, the toppings. None of those were exceptional, but all of them were above average, with the result that this was a really nicely balanced pizza. What did stand out, oddly enough, was the cheese. I don't know if their cheese is special, or if it just wasn't overpowered by the sauce, but that was some damn good cheese mix on that pie. And it held up beautifully to next day eating, both cold and reheated.
Rosati's menu trumpets "Under New Management." I don't know when this change happened, but the new managers are putting out a fine product. Note: Monday nights, all pizzas are 15% off. How do you lose?
I use to live right in the neighborhood and walk over from time to time to get a slice of pizza. This place always sell the best pizza and I never regretted buying from them! I never ordered from them so, I can't tell you how their delivery services are!
One thing I do recommend that they should consider doing is always have a pan of Sausage, Pepperoni and all chesse ready at all times. It always sucks to have to wait for pizza when it isn't done. But believe me... It is always worth the wait!
One last thing, if you do get a slice to go and you order two slices make sure not to place both pizza (in the pizza box) on top of each other. It is a GREAT chance the cardboard from the box can melt onto the pizza! My husband had that happen to him and he was very dissapointed because he ate more cardboard than cheese LOL!! Just FYI!
Delivery time on a Wednesday night at 9pm - 20 MINUTES!! It could not have been faster if I went there to pick it up myself.
Also, I tried their buffalo wings this time in the "dinner for two" special and they were hot, spicy, and delicious! The dinner for two option really is perfect for 18.99, no delivery charge!
My boyfriend and I stopped into Rosati's just wanting a veggie sub. The very difficult to read menu didn't have any veggie subs (the only vegetarian option was pizza), so C asked if he could just get an Italian sub without any meat. He was informed that they didn't have any meat to put on the sub anyway. Not that we care if they don't have any meat, but that struck us as very odd. So the woman disappeared to the back for a few minutes. About five minutes later, she asked my boyfriend what kind of vegetables he would like on the sub, clearly indicating she hadn't even started it yet. Eventually, she returned with his veggie sub, about 15 minutes after we had initially walked in. Â Overall, my boyfriend thought sub was pretty good, but the service and options leave a lot to be desired. We will not be going back to this pizzeria, for any reason.
Review Source:Yum!
The Big Cheef sandwich is always tasty-- lots of yummy cheese and good beef-- and their thin crust pizza is good. Â I usually steer away from the pepperoni because theirs tends to be a bit greasy, but overall, a great place to order from. Â I will say that whoever is on their phones is the devil and will make you feel like punching babies...but it's worth it.
I love you, Rosati's. Will you marry me? I've been ordering from them for years...I ordered from them when I lived in the burbs and I love that I can still order from them in the city. I always get the thin crust and it's always just the way I like it. Good ingredients, great crust, fresh and quickly delivered.The inside is a joint so just do delivery. I had one bad experience....completely my fault...I ordered anchovies on my pizza cuz I didn't want to take anyone's advice that it was just plain nasty....well it was...just plain nasty. They also have awesome cheesy beef sandwiches.
Review Source:my friend and i ordered a deep dish vegetarian specialty pizza from rosati's and were both pretty disappointed. Â the toppings were sparse, the sauce mediocre, and it was priced the same as the finer pizzerias in chicago. Â there are way too many fabulous places for pizza in chicago and this one had nothing unique and therefore my business will continue to be taken elsewhere. Â sorry rosati's.
