    My hand, and 16" pizza with sausage and green pepper!
    Noah K.

    Wife and I love this Monicals. Always good service, clean, and good food. We get the pleaser for 2 with 16" pizza. Fills us up and take some leftovers home. Pizza is always perfectly cooked, good amount of toppings. Will be back! Monical's is a must try central Illinois staple!

    Stopped here with a group after our grandson's hockey tournament. Food was excellent. Pizza was hot and delicious. Salads are huge, dressings are fresh made. I had the tortellini with Alfredo sauce it was very good, served with two bread sticks. Sandwiches are huge with lots of meats and cheeses. A must try when in Springfield.

    The clientele in this establishment is amazing always so nice always greeting me as I'm walking and treating me with lots of respect no matter what.

    Mighty Meat - Specialty Pizza

    Monical's for me is that memory refresher from college where I first tried a Monical's pizza and famous "red" sauce over 15 years ago. Fast forward and it remains to this day one of my favorite food spots to hit for pizza in the Midwest. My fiancé had never been before so a few weeks ago I finally took her for dinner and she loved the pizza as well; although my spirit was crushed when she admitted to not really liking the red sauce. The special sauce isn't for everyone but it is at least a must try with your pizza/breadsticks. We also ordered an appetizer of meatballs which ironically enough I have never tried; we both loved them and at first she said she didn't even want meatballs! Any Monical's in Illinois to me is a tradition worth passing along to others and passing along that tradition is easy when the food is delicious!!

    It's a chain, expect restaurant chain service but the best go to pizza for the money.

    Some of the best thin crust pizza I have had in a long time. Very crispy... Reasonably priced and good staff.

    Anyone else put the French dressing on their pizza at Monicals? I grew up eating this way...

    Incredible. Simply incredible. Super friendly and attentive staff. Very relaxed and cozy…read moreatmosphere. And the food? So, freaking, good. Our party enjoyed the spaghetti with meatballs and pizza. Everything tasted amazing and fresh. The desserts were incredible, especially the tiramisu. While parking can be a hassle depending on when you go, it is well worth it. Cannot stop thinking about the food since we left and am very excited to come back soon.

    Ok so, it's hard to know where to start with this place! We were greeted by a nicer middle aged man…read morethat was so helpful. He explained the menu and made some awesome suggestions. The ambiance was welcoming and made you feel like you were definitely in an Italian restaurant. It was a little loud but not to a point where it was unbearable. We started with some Itialian lemon tea and peach tea that were unbelievably tasteful. We also had to try the black cherry cane soda that was so flavorful. NEW YEARS SALAD was so good and everything in the salad seemed to be of high quality. I wish there was a little more dressing but overall the amount of dressing would prob be great for the normal person. I ordered the FUSILLI AL PESTO and it was so good. I added shrimp to it and it went well with the flavor. The bread they bring out was so soft and delicious. We could have eaten another loaf. We also ordered the pizza and it was so good. The kids ate the whole pizza and said we have to come back here again. I have to say the pizza was not like any other pizza in town. The parking can be a bit tough but absolutely worth trying to find a spot.

    Let me just start with Kimberly! She is an amazing bartender, and server who was very attentive…read more She was also very, very polite! Always a plus. The place isn't much inside, but it isn't bad either. Plenty of room for partys, and you won't feel crowded at all. OK, the food. I had a side Caesar salad which was delicious! Then came the pizza. I ordered a small chicago deep dish with meatball, and green peppers. I only got through two pieces, but it was pretty good. My only issue is that there was not nearly enough meat in my pizza, but plenty of green peppers. I would suggest meat choices only to go with the tons of cheese, and sauce. I'll still be going back when I'm in the mood, because even though it isn't Lou's, or Giordano's, it's pretty scrumptious.

    The service was good and the stuffed pizza was delicious. We also ordered wings which I thought…read morewere pretty good as well. They have a small parking lot. We went on a Sunday evening and we were the only people in the establishment. Which was nice. The service was good. Our waitress was very friendly. They have a pretty cool bar area if you wanted to watch the game. The price of pizza was a little high. But it was definitely worth it and I would definitely go back again. I suggest if you're going to get the stuffed pizza that you eat it at the restaurant. I hear a lot of people who have had issues with the pizza when transporting it.

    Located inside Anvil and Forge!…read more This is a locals haunt. They use old world farm type of textiles to fuse old with new world. They have art on the wall for sale. It's colorful, loud and tough with spirits! Now the kitchen inside the distillery is the Foundry Kitchen. It's a local haunt that sells pizza, salads, burgers, and various other food items. Get your grooves on and enjoy the eats of authentic food in all its glory. The service is great. When you order a soda from the bar they have free refills. They have complementary water in the lobby area that's self serve. They bring the food to the table based on the number assigned. Love the rich and spicy sauces they use. However you go make sure and have fries along with your burger or sandwich they are truly delicious. The best of evening fun, food, and brews here. I

    We stopped in Springfield on our road trip and found this place for a burger and it was very yummy…read more The only downside is they only offer HUGE burgers but we were able to share so it worked out for us. I also had one of their beers but can't remember which one, maybe it was blueberry?? It was good but a little sweet so wish I had gotten a smaller one. The fries were also great, obviously home made. I will say we sat outside because it was a gorgeous day but you can't walk back in the side door so you have to walk around to the front every time which was odd and inconvenient.
