  Had Stolfa's several times now.  First for the positives - I don't mind the no dine-in option.  It even has a drive-thru window.  Order ahead and pick it up.  Really awesome deep dish.  Try it with sausage and spinach combo.  Buttery crust, lots of cheese, and generous toppings.  Delish.  I've had the walleye and chicken dinners - portion sizes are very generous.  You may consider sharing, especially at lunch. Chicken and walleye are good, a little on the salty side, but good. Staff - super friendly and knowledgeable and prepared with suggestions.  This has been consistent.  Kudos to them in this department!
  
  Now for the some things I think could improve.  The overall price point is pretty high, even for B/N.  Get a pizza and add salad and cake and it gets expensive fast.  Hint - use social media, you'll find deals there.  Next, the chocolate cake that is a knock-off of popular Chicago-land chain's iconic cake.  Holy canned frosting!  Yes, the cake is good, but whoa!  Half the frosting would do and at $4 per slice, look up a mayonnaise cake recipe and buy your own canned chocolate frosting and save yourself some money.  Mac-N-Cheese - now I love some good mac and this is far from it.  The parmesan totally takes over and it is entirely too sharp.  It is definitely a "grown-up" mac - not kid friendly.  Taste and texture were off-putting.
  
  All in all, I'll go back for the pizza for sure, and occasionally another meal.  Maybe I'll try a sandwich next time.  If you don't mind paying a premium for good service and good pizza, this place is for you.

  Stolfa's I am holding back one star because there is no dining in, if there was seating you would have four stars.  
  
  Upon entering the restaurant my dinner guest and I were greeted by the owner.  He asked if we had been there before, neither of us had been.  Right away he told us we should try the chicken, that was my plan even before the recommendation and my companion ordered the walleye.  
  
  As our order was being prepared the owner came back over to us holding a cup, he asked us if we liked chocolate, who doesn't?  He handed over the cup and told us it was their chocolate cake shake, WTF?  It was one of the most decadent and delicious things ever done with chocolate.  You must order one and enjoy.
  
  Salty, this is what cost them a second star.  The walleye and mac n cheese were too salty for my taste.  The chicken was less salty.  I'm not a fan of walleye but I tried my friends and besides being salty it had a good flavor and I would recommend it.
  
  The food was prepared quickly and the price was great for the amount you get.  I will order from here again, next time I will try the pizza and of course I will order another shake.

  My family ordered from Stolfas Pizza tonight for the first time. We ordered a thin crust pizza with sausage, mushroom, and onions. We also split up a piece of the chocolate cake I keep hearing so much about.
  
  The pizza was very very good! The chocolate cake was also very good! The staff was attentive and polite.
  
  The location was packed! There is just no other way to put it! It was extremely busy there! There were tons of people coming in to pick up their orders.
  
  There is no dine in. It is important to know it is carry out and delivery ONLY!

  Tried a bit of everything.  Fried chicken, Walleye, Pizza, Salad.
  
  Overall nothing exceptional, but not bad.  The chicken and walleye were pretty good.  Pizza crust was rather bland, with not much flavor.  Sauce was pretty good.  I had the italian beef pizza.  Beef had good flavor.  Decent amount of cheese.
  
  Walleye was a bit on the spicy side.  Lots of black pepper in the batter.  My son commented on how spicy it was.  I thought it was pretty good.  
  
  Chicken was very juicy and not greasy at all.  
  
  I will eat here again, and most likely stick to the Fish and Chicken, which is rather odd for an Italian place.
  
  My wife did not like the salad at all. This is what is holding this review back from four stars.  She commented that the lettuce was slimy and the rach dressing was prepackaged.
