"" Worst Calzone and Worst Beef Sandwich Ever!!! "" So I grew up with Rosati's Pizza. Seriously! I was born and raised in Chicago, home of the best pizza and best Italian Beefs in the world! After 36 years up north our entire family moved from the far NW Suburbs of Chicago to FL. My favorite pizza is pan style and for those who have tried it, Rosati's doesn't even come close to a true tasting authentic pan style pizza so I always order thin crust from Rosati's. So single star is really because of their service and from our (first time) non-pizza order. So I order a Calzone with Mushrooms and Ricotta Cheese. I've never had their Calzone, pizza yes, but not anything else and wish I didn't because it was awful! Just awful!Not only bad, my Calzone had the wrong ingredients. After I get home I find a pepperoni and mozzarella cheese Calzone in the box. So I made a phone call just to let them know, hey, I brought home a Pepperoni and not my Mushroom and Ricotta so maybe you mixed an order up, so check if there's a Calzone being picked up and they don't get the wrong one too. And, to again let you know I got the wrong one. Now I know who I'm talking to, it's a ride front desk clerk with green dyed hair the same who took my payment who was probably 15 or 16 and just didn't have all her marbles. So she says, "ok". I'm like, ok, can I speak to the manager please. So Nina (the Rosatis Manager) answers and I had to explain again that I got the wrong order. I picked my order up (order #60) about 20 minutes ago and I got the wrong Calzone. Nina's answers with "ok". And that's all she says. I was like omg! Not even an apology for screwing up my dinner or how my taste buds were destroyed as pepperoni is a far cry from my expected delicious mushroom and ricotta, and does Nina have any clue about Management, plus I've way overpaid for this lousy pepperoni! I ask her are you not even going to say we're sorry for messing up your order? She answers, well that'll happen. That was it. Oh, and by the picture you can tell how way undercooked it was. The inside dough was still gooey. I'm willing to bet they last about another 6-12 months. With horrible food and service it won't be too long before they move out!!! read more

My family and I ordered 2 pizzas and 20 wings ($67) over the phone where the rudeness began, my girlfriend was ordering and the employees thought she was speaking too fast and told her to "chill." I showed up intending to split the bill with two cards and the employee at the front had to get the owner (John) from the back since he did not know how to do it. I could see from the whole that faces the kitchen that John was annoyed, then came to the front, with no mask on and put one with his nose still out, and the first thing that came from his mouth was "do you know it is ilegal to pay with 2 credit cards?" With attitude. I replied that it is not true and I had 2 debits cards, then he did not do the transaction right and charged it all in one card, no apology and did not ofer to void it to do it again correctly. Then I asked how many ranch sauces were there since I got 20 wings and the owner replied " we always placed 1 sauce per every 6 wings, we put plenty of sauces there." When I got home there was 1 ranch........ for 20 wings...!!!!????? Rude employees, cheap and terrible owner, and this place does not put it's customers first, do not support them until this changes. We have had bad experiences many times even after many bad experiences hoping that it could change, but I lost hope. Never again. Just read the reviews about the owner. Shambles. read more

Went in yesterday on my lunch break for the first time and got the deep dish pizza with pepperoni and sausage and was on a time crunch but they absolutely knocked it out where I was still able to eat it hot' great customer service and great selection' 100% will be back and will recommend to friends. read more

Good pizza but terrible customer service. I don't know why they put out coupons but never want to accept them. They offer a free pizza for your birthday but cheese ONLY. I wanted to add pepperoni and pay for it but it's CHEESE ONLY!! read more

Called after DoorDash didn't deliver. Person on phone could care less. It's DoorDash's issue not theirs. I love how businesses give up to help resolve issues and just point finger in someone else's direction. I love it so much that I'll never order another pizza from Rozati's or ever recommend them to anyone. read more

Horrible experience. Ordered a "Classic Combo" pizza two weeks ago. No problem. Today i order the exact same thing and they deliver a plain cheese pizza. They tell me they have no such item even though i ordered it two weeks ago. LOL. They refused to refund the pizza or replace it. What kind of customer service is that??? It's on their online menu! read more

Rosati's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Oldsmar, Florida

"Pizza is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy" - Benjamin Franklin Ok...so perhaps I've taken some liberty with that quote. (No pun was intended...but that was pretty good nonetheless!) I love pizza. Chicago style deep dish, Chicago style thing crust, New York style, St. Louis style...you get the picture. Being from Chicago, I was somewhat familiar with Rosatis pizza. Up there, it was what I'd consider to be average fair. Not upper echelon, but not low guy on the totem pole either. When compared to options in Florida, I'd rank it higher, so when I learned they were opening here, I was excited! Before I start with my review, understand this: I like sausage on my pizza. However, there is a difference in how it's used depending upon the region. New York style for instance cooks at a quicker rate, so raw sausage cannot be used as it wouldn't cook through. The result is a dry, often tasteless glob on top of the pizza. Chicago thin crust (and deep dish of course) cook longer meaning raw sausage can be used. There is no comparison in taste...raw sausage cooked in the pizza wins every. single. time! This is one of the reasons I was excited about Rosatis arrival. I've ordered pizzas from this location several times, getting mostly the thin crust and once the deep dish. The thin crust was as I remembered it, with good flavor but a crust that was a bit soggy. By comparison, a true Chicago style thin crust has a crispy crust. So while it wasn't all I would want in the perfect pizza, it was tasty and true to the Rosatis formula. The deep dish left me disappointed though. An authentic Chicago style deep dish does not have a bready/doughy crust and the cheese is liberally used. Rosatis reminded me of the many "imposter" deep dishes I've sampled with a thick, doughy crust. There was not a lot of cheese, though the ingredients (sausage and pepperoni) were plentiful. The sauce was the highlight of the pizza, thick and chunky with a great flavor. All in all, I didn't dislike the pizza, but I didn't love it either. I would have no objection to eating a thin crust from there, but I would avoid the pan. They also offer a stuffed pizza, which I may or may not try down the line. I'd give it 3.5 stars, but in Yelp'land, I bumped it to four since they do utilize my preferred way of cooking the sausage and half stars are not an option. read more

One again I am disapapointwdcin the service I received at Rosatis this weekend. I ordered a large pizza and when I showed up noticed it was an extra large pizza and I asked the girl behind the counter and this was her explanation. Most people don't know we have extra large so when the cone in the are heppy because they did not know we had an extra large. My answer was this was ridiculous and she says next time I order, order a 16 inch pizza, which happens to be a large, kind of confused. Over the last 6 months I have had challenges with them. Got breadsticks that were put in aluminum foil and some sauce added to them, threw them out. Got a ceaser salad with tomatoes and cucumbers. Ordered one time and was told my pizza was going to be ready in 35 minutes, showed up in 40. Was told my pizza was almost done and it will be just a minute. Well 40 minutes later I got my pizza. It was not even in the oven when I got there. Would have been nice to know so I could have made decision on if I wanted to wait or not. I think I have had my last experience with them, good luck with their service read more

Was good but not as good as people are saying. Good pizza but the bread is still diff here in Florida. Sauce is good won't deny that.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM!! They have no idea what they are doing!! I ordered 2 pizzas at 5:20 today and was told it would be here between 6:25-6:35.....then I use "track my order" and it says at 6:25 "delivered"!!! Long story short I had to call 4 times and was given one excuse after another!! Then told me they would give 10% off next time--not going to be a next time! Told me the driver had my order....then they said he didn't have my order then he did and they were going to refund me 50%-on food I have YET to receive!!! Then they told me they would give me all of my money back and my pizza should be here soon!! That was 20 minutes ago!!! I am sure we will not be having pizza tonight-especially from Rosati's!!! Insane!! read more

The other night I enjoyed a fantastic Monster pie and wings. The pie was baked to absolutely perfection, the toppings were al'dente and plentiful. As for the Wings...The best in Oldsmar!!! Watch out Wing Wars there's a new contender in town. The owner is highly professional and friendly. A breath of fresh air in this busy world. Old school manners, If you're looking for the Best Chicago pizza and wings this place knocks it out of the park!!! Great job guy's read more

Picked up pizza and it was no par baked like I requested. Gentleman at the register said he was the owner and said they don't do par baked on the Chicago pan style. Of course I had it par baked many times before. I brought in 12 coupons that I had collected for half off the pizza. He said my phone number did not show up and he would not honor them, saying they did not come from his restaurant. They did however. We had just had a pizza from them 2 weeks ago. I find it hard to believe he is the owner, let alone manager since he came across so ignorant with total lack of business sense. I will NEVER go back and do yourself a favor and don't go there either. There are other better Chicago pizza restaurants in the Tampa Bay area. read more

We are long time Rosati's customers at this Oldsmar location. We have been patrons through several managerial and staff turnovers. With that being said, the current staff and management lacks customer service skills beyond compare. Anyone who knows Chicago pizza, can verify the product sells itself, it's delicious! But, with the continued unpleasant experiences, competitors are worth the extra couple miles drive. Tonight's visit was extra disturbing as not only one, but a second staff member questioned our use of the "box-top" promotion. As advertised: "50% off one pizza of your choice when you save 12 coupons". With a crowded pick up station, employees stated "we don't see in our system you've ordered 12 times". To my surprise, I asked "where would I possibly get these, if I hadn't ordered with you"? The older, obviously overworked back order cook came out to verify "our name wasn't the system often enough" to possibly use this offer. I couldn't even believe this absurd rationale. This disrespectful older woman employee proceeded to ARGUE with me in front of several customers waiting to pick up their orders. This literally went on for over ten minutes. I actually felt like I was doing something wrong, asking them to honor their advertised promotion. Fortunately, the pizza was excellent but this type of service isn't worth a return visit or a cent more of our money! Disappointed doesn't even cover the experience. read more

Rosati's Pizza - Need to include the following on the offer: *Subject to extensive investigation and interrogation upon use - Pizza Near Me - Oldsmar, Florida

The pizza is awesome. Great location. Very friendly. Wings are yummy. Very clean. They were super busy today due to the holidays and did an excellent job. Thank you. read more

Awesome pizza always lots of toppings and cheese. The sauce is amazing as well. Can never go wrong with a Chicago style thin crust.

Sadly I have not tried one of their pizzas but I gotta say their Italian Beefs are on point. I've been out to Portillos in Tampa and Chicago and I think I've got to say Rosatis is better. The au jus is flavored just right. I do wish they had a sit down area though instead of basically take out. read more

If you want sloppy and totally burnt pizza... GET IT HERE at Oldsmar Rosati's. YUCK! Also, Management and Assistant Management do not bother to remedy complaints. Save your time and get a good pizza ANY PLACE else. read more

Sad to leave a two star review but I truly haven't had this bad of food from a restaurant in a while. We ordered fettuccini alfredo with CHICKEN ON THE SIDE and asked for it to be in a separate box as I'm vegetarian and don't want it mixed in. When we got there after waiting 30 minutes to pick up the food the had put the chicken in the pasta and said they had to remake a new chicken breast. We waiting another 15 minutes for the food. We then also ordered a double dough pizza... I've never had a thinner pizza in my life. I'm not sure if they messed up the order or ran out of pizza dough for the night but it was so thin I wish I took a picture. It tasted like cardboard and the cheese was 2 inches thick. read more

Delicious thin crust pizza ordered the pizza well done. Added fresh basil. Nice surprise cut in little squares. Will be back

Just in town for the weekend and wanted a pizza for a late evening dinner after a long day of kids sports tournament. This place was near our hotel so we decided to try it. I ordered a 16 inch double crust with pepperoni, 2xtra sauce and extra cheese. We ordered online and picked it up ourselves. We chose their as soon as possible option which was about 30-40 minute wait (it's also an NFL playoff night if that matters). The pizza was done at 30 minute mark. It was super hot like just out of the oven which is a big plus for me right there. It's rare a request for extra sauce is actually executed well but boy did they do it right. Extra cheese was thick in a good way. The crust was cooked well despite the thickness. The pepperoni was plentiful but not overly greasy. It was tucked under the cheese and solidly covered the pie. If we were in the area again we'd happily stop in again. A few other reviews have reported clashes with staff but we had no problems in our visit. We ate way more of the pie than we'd planned just because it was good and we're jockeying for who gets a cold piece of leftovers for breakfast lol. read more

Rosati's Pizza - 16 inch Double crust 2x sauce, extra cheese, and pepperoni tucked under the cheese. Bubbling hot and delicious. - Pizza Near Me - Oldsmar, Florida

Tastes like home! #RealChicagopizza #notNYstyle Drove 45 minutes, did not disappoint. read more

I couldn't add toppings to the pan pizza online so I called in my order for pickup. Nicole took my order and when I asked her to confirm her address at the restaurant she didn't know the address! Really? I asked. She said "really , I dont know, I'm just a teenager" as if that explained it. The pizza was good no doubt, but is this what you want to represent your company? Wow .... just wow! read more

Pizza in this area is actually horrible. Rosati's is probably the best in the area. I'm not sure where the average reviews come from but the pizza is good. I wouldn't order from anywhere else in the Oldsmar area. read more

The food is good but I've gotta say, the service is horrible and that itself is reason to not order from here. Our order was placed at 5:30 and we had a scheduled delivery for no later than 6:30. We waited, and waited, and waited, and waited for our pizza to be delivered and it never showed. By 6:45, i was over it. I had to call 3 different times to check on why it was so late and was assured each time that it was on the way and the driver was only a couple minutes away. Each time, I waited at least another 12-15 minutes before calling again and being told the same thing. Finally, it was delivered and was so cold and the cheese was hard. Clearly it had been sitting there for forever, now more than 2 hours after my promised and paid for delivery time. I drove over to the store to get a fresh pizza, which I had already paid for delivery and the convenience and all of it, and was met with confusion about why I was upset? Probably because I paid $50+ for disappointment and frustration. I wasn't even offered a free soda for the inconvenience. NOTHING, except a reminder to collect the cardboard coupons that are on the pizza box. No apology, nothing. Worst customer service ever. read more

I've now been here twice since the opening of Rosati's and both times have left me more than satisfied. I'll start by saying that I don't care for deep dish pizza at all and I like the pizza here very much. For both of my visits I have taken advantage of their lunch special that they run that includes one jumbo slice of pizza and a bottled beverage for $5. Your total is actually $4.67 and with tax it brings it to an even $5. I love how they do that and it makes things easy for the customer and the cashier. Walk in, hand them your five-dollar bill, leave, eat and be happy. The reason why I say leave is because there isn't anywhere to sit beside a table for two outside. There's no chance of that happening, especially in the summer time. The pizza is extremely filling, good and not overdone by any means. My one complaint is that both times the temperature of my pizza has been slightly above room temperature. I even watched the girl behind the counter pull it out of the pizza case that clearly displays 137 degrees. It didn't feel that hot to me and I wish it was a little warmer. Most places display their pies and then throw the slice in the oven for a minute or two to crisp and warm them up. I wish they did the same here. The crushed red pepper that they serve on the side is fantastic and provides an extra flavor of heat. The location of Rosati's is tough to find, so make sure you're looking for it. I would expect that they will benefit from the overflow of Chick Fil A lunch hour and hopefully gain some cliental that way. I would also like to nominate Rosati's for arguably the worst promotion of all time. On the outside of their pizza boxes it says: Save 12 Coupons and get 50% off of your next pizza. C'mon, you can do better than that! That sure is a lot of work for a half off coupon. I'll definitely be back here for their wonderful lunch special and as someone in their mid-twenties, hopefully I don't fall off the face of the Earth before I collect my 12 coupons. read more

First time trying Rosati's Pizza stuffed pizza. I'm from Chicago and this is a bit different than traditional stuffed (not as thick) BUT it's AMAZING!!! We got cheese and sausage and I loved the sauce on this pizza. Reminded me of my favorite pizza back home. The cheese was really good as well. The crust could have been a bit crispier but still good. I normally get the thin crust and really love that as well! Finally a lil piece of home!! read more

Rosati's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Oldsmar, Florida

Excellent Chicago style pizza! Was finishing a fast and craving this when it was completed! What a reward!!

I am from NY so spoiled as far as pizza and wings go. I ordered plain wings and a deep dish pizza with sausage, mushrooms and onions. I ordered it online so I received 20% off because it was my first order so that was a plus!! I picked it up at the time they said it would be ready and it was ready! I was welcomed by a very friendly girl ( did not get her name but I went in on 6/7/17 at 4:50 pm). Anyway, the wings were meaty and cooked perfect!!! The pizza!!! Delicious!!!! Tasted just like pizza up north!!! So glad this place opened, its right around the corner from me and will now be my pizza go to place!!!! Good job and don't change your recipe at all!! It's perfect!!!!:) read more

Rosati's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Oldsmar, Florida

Just had our first pizza from here. We are both from Chicago and I guess you can say we're spoiled. We both are very satisfied after having their pizza. Great crust cooked perfectly, ample amount of sausage and onions just as we ordered. Delivery was very fast taking only 25 minutes from our call. This is a new restaurant here in Oldsmar and they are off to a good start. Will be ordering pizza from here exclusively from here on. read more

Three orders from DoorDash and Uber. The rest of the order gets here but not the pizza. Worst service ever!!!! Their deep dish is great but don't try to get a delivery. Beyond frustrated with this place!!!! I called (first time door dash, second and third Uber eats) all said they were not given the pizza. The restaurant says they didn't pick it up. So they all 3, from 2 delivery services (and I know sometimes same drivers) all didn't pick up a whole pizza??? I called the store and the manager yelled at me and told me to stop using Uber he can't control them and he doesn't own them. Funny we don't have problems with other venues. Shame. (Saw the comment from the restaurant below. They do not control the services but they 100% control what is handed to the driver. This has happened 3 times using two different services. You also control your rudeness!) read more

I am a Chicago girl-born n raised in LaGrange Park, a western burb. I have not had Rosati's pizza since I transplanted to Tampa in 2000, so my excitement for a thin crust pizza coming to Tampa, well, it was over the top. Mind you, I am not a pizza lover, like some,but was very excited and skeptical. I am very happy to type....... IT WAS DELICIOUS AND JUST LIKE I REMEMBER!!!! I ordered a 12" thin crust x-cheese, sausage, mushroom, & green pepper. (There was enough cheese that next time I will skip the x-cheese) I opened the box in the car, as the smell was killing me, and smiled. There it was, a fantastic looking, great smelling pizza cut into squares, a Chicago thing. (It's not pie, its pizza!) I took the tiny "taster corner" on the upper right and was in heaven. Next red light, the lower right taster corner was eaten. Needless to say, my pizza made it home cornerless.(lots of red lights) I can not stress enough how good it was, it was for sure a taste of home. The crust, the sauce, everything was just on point! Best pizza I have had in Tampa since I transplanted. This will be the only pizza I ever eat in the future! With Rosati's now open, Portillo's open, all that I am missing is El Famous Burritos and I will never have to go back to Illinois! read more

Being from Chicago and growing up on Rosattis pizza this was just like home!!! Delicious pizza! Thanks for bringing Chicago to Tampa!!!

Just like home.. pizza was perfect. Taste the same from Chicago down to the cheese, sauce, toppings and crust.. the cheef's were amazing haven't had a real beef since being back home.. Portillos is good and good for other things but not as good as this beef from Rosatis. Cinna sticks were good as well. I never had these before today. Everything was on point will be back for sure! I can now stop looking for pizza places, they for sure brought my favorite thin crust pizza chain to Florida. (I came down from port Richey for this pizza ) read more

I couldn't contain my excitement when I found out that a brand new Rosati's opened up a couple miles down the road! I was hoping it was a dine in restaurant, as I had been to one in Arizona that was a fantastic restaurant/sports bar. Nonetheless, my excitement remains. We felt we wouldn't do Rosati's justice without ordering some deep dish pizza on our first visit. A simple sausage & pepperoni deep dish was cheesy with a buttery crust. Simply delicious. We wanted to try a couple of appetizers as well so we got the onion rings and pizza bread. The onion rings came with a great side of ranch. The pizza bread was delicious but not something that I would order again if I was getting pizza. However, that doesn't take away from the fact that it tasted yummy! Another perk was that while looking at their website, I noticed that they have online ordering and if you register you receive 20% off your first order! As if there weren't enough reasons already to order from here. My food was ready when I arrived and I received some great coupons on the pizza box that I will definitely be using in the near future! read more

From Chicago and was so pleased with the pizza!! Tastes just like home. (Cut into squares and all) the sauce is tomato goodness. Will drive the 40 mins again just to have it. Bought a frozen thin crust and deep dish to take home. read more

Rosati's Pizza - Cheese Thin Crust Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Oldsmar, Florida

Wish I could leave no stars on this one. Just called to order a pizza and was told the price on my 20.99 pizza was going to cost me 31.00 because I asked them not to put on green olives or green peppers but add a little more garlic. They will not get any more of my business! read more

Nothing is perfect, but this was damn close! The ONLY negative I could find was that they said it would be 60 minutes for a 14" deep dish (not the negative) .... The negative is that we arrived 50 minutes later and it was already starting to cool... Having said that, by the time we dove into the amazing pie, it was at the perfect eating temp. This is better than ANY other deep dish chicago pizza I have ever had. A+++ -Dave read more

We have been waiting for Rosati's to open. Great menu with lots of selection. We tried the Chicago Stuffed Pizza - delicious. Lots of cheese in the middle, sauce on the top and buttery golden crust. Even our picky three year old who doesn't like to eat anything ate a whole piece by himself and said it gets 6 stars (although his rating system is arbitrary). Delivery took awhile, but the pizza itself takes 40 minutes to cook. The driver forgot our cannoli, but she returned shortly with the cannoli and a smile. Great customer service. We will order from here again, and again. read more

I love pizza, I am normally a thin crust person but I think I'm switching to deep dish after eating here. The ingredients are so fresh and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. The pizzas are mostly big so you can share, which is nice. Plus the owners are actually Italians so they care about the food. Highly recommend! read more
