    That Italian G.

    Great Place! Food is good, delivery takes about an hour and at the end of the day I'm happy I have a solid pizzeria near my home.

    a slice of deep dish pizza

    Best pizza in the entire world. Every time I try another place it absolutely disappoints. I'm always annoyed that I just didn't go here. When friends are having a party and they're not having Palermo's I tactfully bring Palermo's along. I think it's 20 years I've been a fan - not even the other two Palermo's are as good as this one. The sauce, cheese, dough - comes together perfectly here. U only ever order stuffed cheese w mushroom. The small lasts me several days.

    Mix plate of Palermo's wings, fries, fried mushrooms

    I was in the south suburbs in Frankfort for a romantic getaway with my better half and we were not leaving our pool suite for one minute, so obviously we needed to order some good delivery. After some wine, cocktails, swimming and unmentionable activities - we were craving some food to really hit the spot. We called and made an order for one sinfully fat-ass meal! We ordered a small half sausage and half pepperoni deep-dish pizza, an order of fried mushrooms, 1/2 slab of ribs (came w/fries, slaw & garlic cheese bread), and a dozen hot wings with hot sauce and bleu cheese. The phone call order process and credit card payment via phone was seamless - the lady that took our order was very friendly and patient to our detailed order. She even threw in most of the extra sauces we wanted for free, voiding the annoying 50 cent charges. The food arrived promptly in about 45 minutes. The deep dish pizza was decent - the cheese, toppings, and sauce weren't layered in that classic Chicago-style manner. I felt that the "deep-dish" aspect of it was just the thicker crust and bread which was quite unpleasantly hard (that's not "what she said") from being baked in a bigger pan. Either way, it had filling slices, with a moderate amount of gooey cheese, a moderately low amount of pizza sauce, and supple amount of meat. The presentation of the pizza was top notch - it looked very appealing before we took it apart to devour! You can see it in the photos section of this listing. Sadly the presentation ousted its actual quality and taste by a bit. Still, it was definitely 'good enough' as food was the not the focal point of my evening (for once). The fried mushrooms were as good as they get - hot, wet steaming mushroom on the inside - Italian herbed breaded crust on the outside. Yum! We dipped these in hot sauce, ranch, and even a special garlic mayo they included! The wings were seasoned breaded and fried, and though they weren't sauced per se, we were able to toss them in the included hot sauce and when dipped in the bleu cheese, they were yummy in the tummy - I had like 8 of em'! The 1/2 slab of ribs had a moderate amount of meat on them, I've had meatier ribs. They were not too dry but the meat was not exactly falling off the bones either. They put such a supple amount of BBQ sauce over them that we were able to toss half our chicken wings in the sauce to make BBQ chicken wings. The ribs came with some good fries that had gotten a tad soft (understandable with delivery) and some good garlic bread that we added cheese to for 50 cents. The small side of cole slaw included helped have something fresh to bite into in all that greasy yummy mess. Overall the deep-dish was good enough to eat and enjoy, but nothing to brag about. It was nowhere near the best in Chicagoland, and don't even think of comparing it to Gino's, Giordano's or Lou Malnati's! The fried mushrooms were yummy as they usually are, the chicken wings were very good (especially when complemented with hot sauce, BBQ sauce, bleu cheese, etc.), and the ribs were above average. When staying in for the night and craving some nice greasy, indulgent food - this place really can hit the spot. I highly encourage any couples staying at nearby Sybaris or are in the area and want some affordable delivery to check this place out. We ordered a ton of food (it ate like 2 separate dinners for me and my GF, and still we had 1/2 the pizza leftover) and it came out to about a $40 bill + tip, but when you take into account that we ate 2 meals out of it and still had 4 slices of pizza to take home for leftovers - it was a pretty solid value! So really we ordered enough for 3-4 people to eat big dinners with. I would order here again!

    Perfect !

    This is probably the best pizza place with thick crust . Very delicious and fluffy !!!! So perfect guys ... delicious sweet sauce and we ordered at 8:30 and it was ready in at 9:00 pm ! Which is nice because they close at 9 .

This time I had the gnocchi, which had a thick parmesan cream and prosciutto on top. With the peas it created a sweet and bit salty combo that was very rich in flavor. I ended up asking for some bread and finished off the cream with it. For the fried calamari and asparagus salad, the lemon and honey vinaigrette dressing on the salad were great. The breading on the calamari melted in my mouth, but was somehow crunchy (the menu says crispy). For the eggplant parmigiana and linguine frutti, the eggplant was layered between a great tasting mozzarella cheese, garlic and tomato sauce. The blended mix worked well to produce a flavorful dish. For the linguine frutti, the homemade pasta was cooked to just the right amount, for a great tasting pasta. The seafood and sauce also tasted very good. Service is top notch and always very friendly. They are quick to respond and fill cups. Noise level is typically medium.

We got there 5 mins early & we're told they had no ETA on when a table would be available because the venue was booked for party. I asked several times if she knew how long the wait would be, we were okay waiting for a short period of time, not the end of the world. But she doubled down on having no clue and said "I have no where to fit you in until they leave". I then asked why they would be accepting reservations if they knew accommodating them wouldn't be realistic for this evening and the hostess said she didn't know. Given the reservation process requires an email and phone number I asked why someone couldn't have let us know sooner so we didn't get dressed up and come out. Again, she couldn't answer. In disbelief I had to turn to my family and tell them they had no room for us and endlessly apologize for the change in plans. And had to search for somewhere else to go for his birthday. I was just really disappointed & while we drove to the next restaurant, I emailed the restaurants direct website and gave the same feedback. 25 minutes later, while at Francesca's in downtown Frankfort, the restaurant called me for not showing up to our reservation and canceled on me! I am not sure what reality I was living that day, but not hearing back from the restaurant at all after sending them direct feedback on their miscommunication that day, I figure this should be public knowledge for other patrons planning an evening with family for a gathering. Just an all around disappointing encounter. It left a bad taste in my father's mouth & he said he won't be back.
