    The "St Christopher"...next level.
    Jason Y.

    Always perfect. A Christmas Eve tradition for years. St Christopher pizza is required.

    Half sausage & half pepperoni (ordered well done)
    Matt R.

    This place is a go-to spot to pick up pizza whenever I am visiting my dad in the area. Some of the best thin crust pizza I've had. I also ordered their beef sandwich and that was good too. Beef had nice flavor and was sliced super thin.

    Great pizza. Very small, but it wasn't very crowded. Broccoli cheese puffs were a great start. Highly recommend the creamy garlic salad dressing. Two of us could only eat half of the pizza, so plenty of leftovers. Pepsi products to drink.

    St. Christopher - Italian beef, pepperoni, mozzarella, ricotta, and giardiniera peppers.
    Chris C.

    Definitely good pizza. Nice menu with a wide variety of choices among pizza, sandwiches, burgers, and Italian plates. I almost got the baked lasagna, which sounded amazing, but really wanted to try the pizza. I ordered the St. Christopher, which has Italian beef, pepperoni, mozzarella and ricotta. It was very good, and I got about 3/4 of a 12" pie down by myself with little problem. The only issue is the pizza also has giardiniera peppers on it, and they really make the pizza pop. If you don't like spicy stuff, you had best order the pizza minus the peppers. They offer thin crust, pan and stuffed. The one I got was thin crust. Not your typical Chicagoland choice, and if you're expecting Giordano's or Lou Malnati's, I don't know that this place does pizza like that. Who knows, they might. As for atmosphere, this is a typical family owned, small shop. Plenty of seating later in the evening. They seem to do a lot of carryout business. I sat down and pretty quickly got the feeling the place doesn't really do a lot of table service, although a server did eventually come out. But I think this is more of an order-at-the-counter kind of joint, which is fine. I hope the place thrives and continues to be around a long while. I enjoyed it and would like to come back and try other menu items.

    This is one of our go to pizza spots. We always get the 18 inch sausage pizza. The crust, sauce, and sausage on their pizza is absolutely delicious! They have a nice dining room with booths and tables. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The food quality is great and prices are fair. We would definitely Michael Anthony's!

The tomato sauce was flavorful, and the shaved Parmesan and arugula complemented the dish beautifully. Unfortunately, the arancini themselves were disappointing, as the coating was much too thick compared to the small amount of rice filling inside. For our entrées, my husband ordered the Chicken Parmigiana. The chicken was unfortunately very dry and overly salted. I chose the pappardelle with short rib ragù. The fresh pasta was excellent--perfectly made with a wonderful texture--but the ragù was also overly salted, which overshadowed what could have been a great dish. One of the highlights of our evening was the service. Our waiter was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service throughout our meal. The hostess, who may have been the owner, also stopped by our table to check on us, which we appreciated. Overall, this certainly wasn't the worst Italian restaurant we've visited, and there were several things we enjoyed. However, the entrées ultimately fell short of our expectations, especially for a special dinner.

Love the ambiance, Kathy was great as our server it was that the pizza just wasn't on par with what I've had in the past. I ordered the pistachio pizza, my friend ordered the Margarita. I wanted her to try the pistachio as it always had the ability to roll my eyes with every bite. I was shocked when she said it was just ok. She was right! The pistachio cream didn't have the same taste, actually it had no taste. The cheese wasn't melted, but formed hard ribbons on top, and there was so much sausage the taste was just sausage and salt. Even had my husband taste it when I brought some home and he agreed. No eye roll. My friends margarita was equally as disappointing. The cheese wasn't melted, the middle was soft and sat in a puddle of tomato water when you opened it up. We were planning on meeting back again for dinner with our partners, but both agreed we're going to find someplace else.

What a great idea for $23 to get a singular portion of an antipasta, salad, and smaller entree. I got the meatball, baby gem caesar, and spicy rigatoni pasta. I came hungry and left with leftovers. The caesar salad and pasta were amazing! The meatball was good but ricotta was served room temp where meatball was served hot. My friend and I agreed the temp difference was off. She got the meatball, roasted beet salad, and chicken parm sandwich. The beet salad wasn't her favorite as the arugula kept getting stuck in her teeth. The chicken parm sandwich had great flavor and was a large portion! I love this idea of a prefix menu for a fun lunch out. Highly recommend dinner OR lunch at Lucia Rose as you won't be disappointed.

One thing that has stuck with me since my very first visit was something one of the owners told me: "use the menu as a template to get an idea of what's in the kitchen. If you don't see exactly what you want, just ask. If we have the ingredients, we will make it for you." Over the years, I've ordered many of the specials as well as numerous dishes that weren't on the menu, and I have never been disappointed!

For the price point (greater than a $60 lunch for 2 people without alcohol), there are too many other excellent places in the immediate area.
