Friendly, efficient, and personable. Very happy this is where we decided to have my father's 70th birthday lunch stop. I like a deeper Chicago-style pizza, but I'm not hating on this place at all. Very well seasoned, fresh ingredients, and a tasty crust. If you're in the area, give this place a go. Kind of a dive/hipster type feel while still being clean and inviting.

The pizza was tasty but not what I would call a Chicago Deep Dish. The crust was fairly thin and…read morecrispy and the toppings were laid on more like a New York style, not the ample toppings like a real deep dish. The person making the pizza obviously has never been to Chicago. If you just want a tasty pizza, this is worth a try but if you know a real deep dish pizza you may be disappointed.

There was an old guy singing old karaoke country songs which added to the fun/weird atmosphere. Upstairs they have a small arcade that while cool, had about half the machines were broken. The service was really poor. Our waitress didn't just seem like it was her first job it seemed like it was the first time out of her house. We had been sitting for 10 minutes while she walked by 5 times before she even acknowledged us to say she'd be with us soon. She was confused when my wife ordered a Malbec, couldn't provide a single bit of information about the drink special, and didn't understand when I asked for a Peroni. You know, the standard Italian pilsner. One of the 8 beers ON THE MENU. The food is just ok. It was fine. It's close to Olive Garden. You're not gonna find granma's 100 year recipe here, standard spaghetti and meatballs which did their job well. We got the triperfecta the eggplant parm and the chicken parm and while they did not come out hot, everything tasted fine. The big draw here is the ambiance. The owner has a gold mine if they took some time to train wait staff and added some passion in the kitchen. I will also add that at some point in our meal someone started tossing warm rolls to patrons and that was a lot of fun.

I found it to be bland and lacking the variety of pasta options that I've come to expect from Italian restaurants. Compared to other local Italian restaurants we enjoy, the menu felt limited and the flavors were not particularly memorable. As a first-time visitor, I also found the restaurant a bit confusing when we arrived. We were immediately asked whether we wanted to attend a show rather than being directed to seating or given an explanation of how the restaurant operates. It seemed like there was an assumption that guests already understood the concept. A brief welcome and explanation for newcomers would have been helpful. While others may enjoy the experience, the food simply wasn't for me, and I would likely choose a different restaurant next time.

We have been to wine tastings all over the U.S., including Napa, California....and Charlie is one of the MOST knowledgeable about her companies wine selection, grape types, foods to eat with the various wines and overall wine industry insight. Her service is friendly, yet impeccable. We were there during the week and it was a slow day....but, she and her co-worker treated us with great attention and helpfulness. St. James Winery needs to make sure they keep ahold of this employee....because, she is a HUGE asset to their business. St. James wines are varied and delicious!!! I wonder if they ship to Texas??????? Definitely, one of our highlights while visiting Branson.

It took 25 minutes to get some water. After getting passed by the people who kept coming in. Our desire to have a drink or food was gone and we were ready to leave. We got placed on hold again just to check out but the other guests walked in and got serviced right away. It's sad we stood at the register for very long time and she never came to tend to us. We had to leave the money at the register and walk out, my family was NOT a priority! It is very sad that we were treated the way we were. Max- was great. Very knowledgeable of all his wines and very interactive. Max took his time getting to know us and what we like and what we didn't like. We appreciate his help and insight for the wine tasting but the service from the waitress was awful and disrespectful!

What a surprise this place turned out to be. We were staying at the Cliffs at Long Creek and wanted…read moreto find a restaurant instead of going to Big Cedar. Unless you want to drive to Branson there's not too many other choices closer. So we decided to give Mr. Gilbert's place a try. It was about 7:30 PM when we arrived. Parking was a nightmare because the lot was entirely filled and they actually had a man in the parking lot helping people to find a place to park. We eventually did find a place to park and entered the restaurant. It was packed. We were greeted warmly and asked if we had a reservation. We did not have a reservation but we're seated immediately in the back dining area. Our drink orders were taken immediately and we were warned that if we were ordering a deep dish pizza that it would take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour. We were good with that. We ordered the MR. GILBERTI'S SPECIALTY which was a deep dish pizza with Italian Sausage, Pepperoni, Canadian Bacon, Black Olives, Mushrooms, Marinated Green Peppers & Red Onions. SMALL 28.50 * MEDIUM 34.25 * LARGE 40.95. This is not your typical thick bread Chicago style pizza that you're accustomed to. Instead this was a crust which is more dense and approaching a cracker like consistency around the edges. It seems that the cheese is laid down first with the rest of the toppings layered on top and the sauce is the last thing that goes on. It's like an upside down pizza. However if you think about it, it's brilliant because the sauce doesn't make the crust get soggy on the bottom since it is on the top. My wife and I both agreed that it was one of the best tasting pizzas that we'd ever had. And a small was plenty for the two of us. For dessert we ordered the strawberry cream cake which was made in the house by a culinary school graduate who just also happened to be the owner. The strawberry cake layers were separated by a cheesecake filling. It was to-the-moon delicious. This is one of those rare restaurant finds. It's the kind of place you just might drive by without giving it a second thought. But I'll tell you, we are so glad that we took a chance because the pizza was fantastic. It is a very casual ambience but the staff was extremely friendly we felt like we were amongst friends. This will definitely be on our repeat visit list next time we come into this area.

This visit, the…read morefood was back to being good - BUT, this place is pricing their stuff to the moon for what you get. A large meat pizza: $43.25. And let me tell you, the pizza is only a 14"....not that deep. I don't mind paying...but this is so out of line compared to what you get. Even a straight pepperoni or sausage pizza..you're paying plenty for what you get. Good taste...but dang have they continued to raise the prices. Salad for 2: $20.75 and the salad is smaller than it ever used to be. Toppings aren't as plentiful as they used to be. And the dressing...the salad didn't have squat. And I paid 2.50 more to get a couple of sides of more dressing....and they're coming in the small plastic ramekin. Gee, give me a break with the nickel and dime junk...when you're already charging $21 for the salad. I have always loved this place. And I can pay whatever....but out of principle...I won't for this place anymore. Sad...as I'm from Chicago and love what this place offered in the past. But now...I suggest Pizza by the Chef in Hollister. Want a meat pizza...Hercules at that place is awesome.
