    Oh my God the Tortellini Pasticciati was outstanding, and so was the Chicken Limone, the Old Fashioned was delicious as well.

I wanted to try them in the summer, but hadn't realized it was takeout only. I got the chance to try them today & wow...food is amazing!! We got double dough florentine pizza, wings, rolls and a veggie combo. It was all fresh and the wings were nice and meaty. It was my birthday and they wrote happy birthday on the bag and gave me a piece of cake no charge! The staff was also friendly when I went to pick up. I truly appreciate the birthday wishes and the cake!! I will be back and have informed my family how terrific the food is!! Everyone should eat there! Thanks Giuseppe's!!!

Fast forward: He spent 10+ minutes on the phone explaining the menu to someone as he IGNORED me standing there waiting for my pickup. A family ahead of me needed to order off the menu at the counter, like a wait-staffed restaurant. One employee up front for counter and phones? The Mgr and a driver sitting there were pretty condescending and the manager was outright curt. My pickup was 805 and I got home at 830 with a cold pizza. He convinced me my business isn't appreciated or needed - he said as much WITH A SMILE AND A SMIRK - so I'll go to Little Villa or Fellini's. Call me when you fire the jerk.

    If you're looking for a taste of Italy, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'm glad I finally…read morestopped by to try their food, and it did not disappoint. For an appetizer, I ordered the oven roasted octopus, and I highly recommend it. The marinade really brought out the flavor of the octopus, and I was impressed by how tender it was. Octopus can easily become rubbery if not prepared properly, but the texture here was soft and perfectly cooked. For my main course, I had the lobster ravioli. While the sauce was rich, creamy, and delicious, I was a bit disappointed that there weren't any noticeable chunks of lobster in the filling. We also ordered the Schaumburg pizza. I loved that all of their pizzas are cooked in a stone oven. I'm usually not a big fan of crust, but this was an exception. The flavors were well balanced, not overly sweet from the barbecue sauce, with just the right amount of savory flavor from the bacon. Everything worked together beautifully. Overall, the entire dining experience was excellent. From the food to the atmosphere, it was a very enjoyable meal. I can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu.

    I want to give 3 stars but can't. I may be in the wrong here but it's my preference I guess…read more Heard about this pizza spot thru family. I got basically a buffalo chicken and a pepperoni pizza. Now they give what seems to be authentic Italian ingredients. I ordered thru Uber. Wish I could come and sit but I work nights. So I got this to enjoy through my work day. The toppings on the pizzas were everything you would expect. Delicious. Which is why I cannot negate this down to 3 stars. I would recommend this place to everyone. The part that may be my preference or maybe I am right. The crust.... From what I expected it was supposed to be bubbly airy soft crust. Maybe a lil char on the outside. This is not what I had gotten. Now looking thru the photos here I believe I am right. My pizzas felt like a flat breadstick on the rims. And just blatantly flopped over when picking up a slice. There was 0 crisp or crunch in the outter rims. Now again I could be wrong and if this is how it is.... It still gets 4 stars. Ingredients are really good. I will be back. Tip is I would not suggest a lot of toppings as you will just make a big mess picking up a slice.. or eat it with a fork I guess.
