We had the carbonara, lasagna, and Trentino pizza. Everything was delicious but the carbonara was definitely my favorite. It took me back to my trip to Rome! This is what real Italian food tastes like Absolutely delicious! The owner is really nice. It's clear he wants to serve only the best food! We drove from CU and it was absolutely worth it! We will be back soon! You should definitely try it!

The bad: The wait staff was not very engaged. I wanted this review to be about the food but that just wasn't meant to be. The Ugly: I am very well travelled on 3 continents. I've dined elegantly as well as from street vendors and I have NEVER had service that was this off putting to the point of being overtly rude, and I am an American who has eaten in France and doesn't speak much French. When we wouldn't sit at the bar, even though the main area was only 1/4 occupied They moved our party of 2 into the side room with chairs up on tables. It went downhill from there. Due to this, it wasn't possible to really enjoy what should have been a fine meal. I will say it is a wise policy to ask for payment and tip ahead of this type of service before it is provided.

For some reason, we get menus and even look at them, and then we order the exact same thing every time. BUT!!! I will say this: tonight there was a wait! So we sat at the bar waiting for a table, and got a glass of wine!!! THAT'S DIFFERENT for us! Our order: Wifey - Stuffed shells, garden salad, hot honey pizza Me - Meatball/spaghetti, anti-pasta salad, hot honey pizza (This was actually a new main dish for Honey. He decided he wanted a tried and true Italian standby. So I guess we didn't get the exact same thing! ) Just FYI, we take the pizza home after grabbing a slice as an appetizer! And, per usual, everything was just SO tasty. They have never failed us. Anyway, always just great food, nice people, and a great time! They can get busy, especially during key times! But we all know what that means! What are you waiting for! Go eat at Joes! A short review, but, just an update on a place that is always five-stars.

While passing through Effingham, Illinois, I had the pleasure of dining at a local favorite--Pizza…read moreMan--and I'm glad I did. This cozy, unpretentious spot delivers exactly what you hope for in a small-town Italian-American restaurant: hearty portions, comforting flavors, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I ordered the meatballs, and they did not disappoint--tender, well-seasoned, and served in a rich marinara sauce that tasted homemade. My dinner companion went with the cheese ravioli, which came piping hot and generously smothered in sauce. Both dishes were satisfying and full of flavor. One of the highlights of the meal was the salad bar-- while a small salad bar, it was fresh, well-stocked, and a perfect way to start the meal. The bread sticks were another pleasant surprise: warm, soft, and just the right touch of comfort on the side. Whether you're a local or just passing through Effingham, Pizza Man is a great stop for a relaxed, hearty meal that leaves you full and content. Definitely worth a visit!

I was having a mid-life crisis trying to choose a pizza, but the owner stepped in like a culinary guardian angel and steered me toward the Pickle Paradise. It was prepared perfectly and had that "just the right amount of weird" I was looking for. Who knew pickles belonged on pizza? My husband went for the Sausagefest (insert joke here), and it was a total hit. They absolutely nail that authentic Chicago tavern-style thin crust--thin, crispy, and cut into those beautiful little party squares so you can pretend you're eating less than you actually are. The seating area is super cozy and the service was top-notch. If you haven't been here yet, what are you even doing with your life? A must-visit!

They were welcoming, knowledgeable about every wine on the menu, and made the tasting feel relaxed and fun. They took the time to walk us through the different flights, recommended great pairings, and genuinely cared about making sure everyone was enjoying themselves. You can tell they take pride in their work and in the winery. The atmosphere here is calm and comfortable, perfect for hanging out with friends or just unwinding. The wine itself was excellent, but the service from Chase and Carter is what truly made the experience memorable. Highly recommend stopping by Tucson Hills Winery, and definitely ask for Chase and Carter if you want a great visit.
