Friendly service, great food! I’m stuffed. The Italian beef was juicy and the au jus had the perfect flavor to blend with the beef. My husband had the chicken said it was tender and the perfect crisp breading. The side of fries was shareable for three. Granddaughter had ravioli looked delicious but she had already been full from my beef and fries..lol

We were just travelling through town and wanted some pizza by the slice from a pizza place near Chicago, since we have never been. We decided to stop here along our route, and are so glad we did! We each got a massive slice of pizza, a salad, and a couple drinks. Service was quick, and the food was delicious! The sauce was divine, the crust perfectly crispy without me having to ask for it Well done, which never happens anywhere else I go. Everyone was super friendly, and we really enjoyed the atmosphere! Next time we come through town, we will definitely be stopping here again!

Not sure if this location just doesn’t know how to make paper thin crust or they just choose not to. This is probably the 3rd time I’ve given them the chance to make a paper thin crust easy sauce pizza. This is the third time I’ve received a not thin crust pizza with a enough sauce to make another pizza. As you can see I took the cheese off a piece to show the ridiculous amount of sauce Guess I’ll have to make that drive to the original.

Was hesitant to go just because it’s Sunday, but they weren’t busy! I’m glad we went despite my misgivings. I ordered a small salad as an appetizer….it was a good size and quality. I had a gluten free veggie special pizza and my husband had Italian beef and fries. Both of our meals were huge! The pizza has ruined me for any other pizza…it was fantastic… especially the sauce. My husband’s sandwich was so packed he couldn’t eat his fries (and they gave him so many fries the take out container was packed). It’s nice to see a restaurant give people their money’s worth. The food really is good. We will be back…the menu has plentiful choices from which to choose! Wait staff was very nice!

I love the original Palermo’s on 63rd and I was very hopeful that it was the same sauce and food. I went for lunch, and I was seated right away. I ordered the baked mostaccioli with marinara sauce. My first impression was that it was a big order of food. It looked good covered in cheese. The pasta was overcooked, and the marinara sauce was very sweet. It tasted like sugar. This is not what the original Palermo’s tastes like at all. My meal came with garlic bread and that was good.

Sat down on a Saturday afternoon with a couple of rambunctious kids and my parents. We had a coupon and they never gave us a hassle when we asked to modify our pizza for a stuffed pizza. Our server was Melissa and she was fantastic! She was polite, accommodating, helpful, and made my kids feel like special guests. We will be returning for two reasons: one, for the service we received, and two, for the amazing and delicious, freshest pizza, breaded mushrooms, and toasted raviolis we’ve ever had! Thank you!
