This was, without a doubt, the worst deep dish pizza I have ever eaten. The cheese was flavorless, cheap, and far too packed to where each bite was nothing but cheese with the tiniest hint of crust and sauce (and I ordered extra sauce). The crust was stiff and lacked any sort of taste. The sauce was the only part that I would consider to be average. I'm very confident that there are multiple grocery store frozen deep dish pizzas that are far superior to what I ate at this place. It feels disrespectful to include this on a menu and charge $28 for such a disastrous glob of tasteless garbage. read more

The $6 dollar slice and canned drink has saved me as a college student. Also very lowkey place to study if you want something nice and quiet. read more

$48 for a (counter service) sub par 12" pizza (bland "premium" Italian sausage, flavorless cheese and sauce that tasted like, tomatoes and nothing else) 2 small side salads and two fountain drinks. Forgettable. Far cry from the once delicious Rosatis of years gone by. 1 hour later and my gut is unsettled. Save your money, time and your tummy and go elsewhere. Fortunately far better options for a good pizza still exist in this town. read more

We love a good stuffed pizza and only order one every couple of months. So we were so disappointed when we ordered this weekend and this is what we got. Clearly there was no care in crafting this pizza. The ratios of sauce, cheese, sausage and crust were all off. There was so much oil (from too much cheese?) that it was literally pooling on the cardboard. I don't think they even cut the pizza or if they did the excess of cheese glued it back together. I never thought I would say it but -there is such a thing as TOO MUCH CHEESE. read more

We had delivery from Rosati's tonight, our first experience with them. Since moving to Urbana just over a year ago, we have bought pizza from Manolo's, Po' Boys, and Papa Del's, with Po' Boys being my go-to. (We ate from Papa John's once, but since they are a chain and it was a one-off, nostalgic, poor judgement buy for us, they do not count.) Rosati's pizza style adheres to the Chicago thin-crust (or tavern-style), although they offer a double-dough option that adds a thick ring of crust around the pizza. According to their website's menu, they also make a deep-dish style pizza. Tonight we went with their 18" Hawaiian specialty and a 12" plain cheese, with a double-dough crust on the cheese pie. We ordered over the phone and had them deliver, including a $5 delivery charge (part of which goes towards the driver) and a $2 charge for the double-dough crust. The pizza came is these neat cardboard pizza boxes that did a great job of keeping the box lid in place. The pizza was not in the least bit greasy. Their Hawaiian was unique in that it included Canadian bacon and a mix of their barbecue and tomato pizza sauces. The overall flavors were tasty and a bit subtle, which kept you going back for more. Their plain cheese was delicious as well and included a robust sauce base. The double-dough crust doubled (no pun intended) as breadsticks and were great for dipping. If only Rosati's served a side of sauce to accompany this crust, then things would be perfect. It was quite the fun experience eating the small, cut-up slices that are characteristic of Chicago thin-crust. Despite not being greasy, their pizza was very filling and we have a great deal of leftovers. Special note should be made of their customer service. The woman over the phone was very nice, accommodating, patient, and informative. We never felt rushed in giving our order and she took the extra time to answer all of our questions. Lastly, she under-promised on the delivery time, stating it would be 1 hour or just over, and it took them less than 45 minutes. We love being over-delivered! (That pun was certainly intended.) read more

I walked in on a Friday evening with my friend, hungry and desperate. We entered and looked for the menu, which is a bit elevated, and a kind employee said, "you don't have to strain your neck. I have so many menu copies for you right here. Take as many as you need. In fact, you can rest your legs and sit while reading over the menu." Immediately we were struck with kindness and a smile. We took a seat, and were pleasantly surprised by the great deals on the menu. When we went to order our food, the employee was extremely kind and soft spoken. We sat back down and our food was ready in under 10 minutes. Our food was hot, perfectly cooked, and delicious. And not to mention, the food portions were large. The restaurant was extremely clean, everywhere we turned there was an employee working to ensure the utmost dining experience. In fact, an employee even turned the soda bottles in the fridge to face potential customers. My friend and I cannot say enough good things about our experience. We will be dining here often, rest assured. read more

The pizza was good. Not fantastic. The crust was a bit soggy. Not sure I'll try again.

Staff was amazing!!! Guy at the cashier was really nice and energetic and didn't mind showing us the pizza sizes when we asked. Really good pizza too.

Rosatis Urbana - Pizza Near Me - Urbana, Illinois

Best Pizza in town - by far. Other places used to be good, but their quality has deteriorated over time. There is a new king in town! Highly recommended! read more

My absolute favorite pizza since childhood. This franchise does not disappoint. The only problem I have had with them is having to wait for over an hour for my Pizza to be delivered, and then it was cold. I called and they said they would credit me for the inconvenience and cold pizza which cost over $30. The manager was supposed to call me but he never did..so, call in for pick up and save yourself the headache...or order somewhere cheaper and faster... read more

Very tasty and reasonably priced pizza! Always get the thin crust with extra banana peppers, so good! Bonus: they have good ranch. The inside of the restaurant is bigger than expected, they have a second room off to the side. Also, they do a student discount with ID! read more

Really confused. Last two times I ordered pizza was cut the standard normal way. Recently it was cut into squares. Totally not how it usually is. Wish they would ask you how to cut it instead of changing it without notice. Not happy at all! read more

Ordered this for delivery and it was so good! The Italian beef is so much food for your buck and the thin crust pizza is wonderful!

Pizza is usually excellent. Yesterday ordered delivery to grandsons house: double crust, 1/2 cheese, 1/2 sausage and mushrooms. Delivered cold, thin crust sausage. Really poor. read more

Was craving pasta so I ordered from them and put in an order for cheese ravioli and fettuccine Alfredo. They called about 5 minutes after I ordered to tell me they were out of cheese ravioli so I went with the meat one instead. Both entrees come with a breadstick and side salad. The side salad came with one slice of cucumber and 1 mini tomato. The meat ravioli was actually very good. However, the Alfredo was really grainy and tasted like unmelted cheese. If I didn't get it delivered I would have sent it back for sure. Upon finishing it I currently feel like a brick of crap is sitting in my stomach and I wish I finished the meal with a bite of ravioli rather than the Alfredo. Probably won't order again. read more

Cheap but tasty pizza by the slice. Great post bar food, the slices of pizza are huge!

Great Chgo. style pizza! The fried mushrooms and cauliflower are good. Always get my order correct. Usually stick to the pizza but tried the Italian beef it was a disappointment. Skimpy on the beef! Portillio's and Niro's have better Italian beef sandwiches. read more

Rosatis is hands down my fav pizza joint! Time and time again, never lets me down! The employees and management are always so nice, and the food is fire!! 10/10 read more

Tasty pizza. Great selection on their menu with a ton of diversity ranging from wings to pasta to salads and pizza. Their best pizza is their thin crust. If you want deep dish go with Papa Dels. Boneless wings are quite tasty. They're high quality chicken and you get a lot for your $. Delivery is prompt (even tho they will say it takes 1 hour) usually around 30 minutes. Nice place to eat-in at and good for groups. Try this out if you are looking for a solid food spot with tasty grub! read more

Saturday night pizza craving + my calorie-based diet cheat day + a little drinking = ordering way too much delivery food than I should have. I didn't feel like getting a Papa John's or Pizza Hut-esque pie despite how cheap they are, so I checked out Rosati's website for coupons and what kind of 'za I could get for myself. I settled on a 12'' half cheese and half pepperoni/sausage with the "double dough" crust, plus a half pound of boneless wings, and a coupon for free delivery. Yes, this was way too much grub for 1 sane person, but I was hungry and had leftovers for the next day. Delivery took a very long and hunger-stricken hour and 15 minutes from the time of order, which even for a Saturday seemed a bit long, especially considering the place is less than a mile from my place. I probably should have just walked there and picked it up..... The pizza wasn't bad! It is really thick though and I was wishing I would have gotten the classic thin crust (oops!). Thick cheese on the other hand, is always good in my book! But I felt that there could have been more sauce, too. As you can tell from the picture, Rosati's puts the toppings underneath the cheese, which is honestly kind of a pet peeve of mine because you can't really tell how much meat is on there, or where it is on the pizza in some cases! Either way, not bad compared to Domino's/Papa John's whose "meats" are of questionable substance and taste. Overall not a bad pie but probably not the best or my favorite on campus, either. Strangely enough, I actually really enjoyed the boneless wings! Who would have thought that a decent place to get wings on campus was Rosati's? Not me! They come by the weight and I ordered 1/2 pound which was about 5 giant boneless wings. I got them with the chipotle sauce which was flavorful and adequately spicy. A lot of pizza place wings can be really dry on the inside and be the size of Ping-Pong balls, but these were pretty moist, had a nice breading on them and were nearly the size of billiard balls! I would order these again! What really made this only a 3/5 experience was the price. Rosati's is comparably expensive to some of the local pizza spots, my whole order was ~$21 including free delivery but excluding tip. Most of the coupons on the website don't give you more than $1 or $2 off, so this was without question a pricey pie and wings night. read more

Not the greatest pizza that you can get in Champaign by far. However, during weekdays a slice of pizza and a soda is like 3.75 which is a really solid deal if you're stuck on campus. read more

This is a great place to eat. Their pizza is good but their Chief Italian beef topped with mozzarella is even better. They also have calzones that are HUGE! The staff is always very friendly and bring you your food. We go here a couple of times a month and love it. read more

Ordered a half mushrooms and half pepperoni and sausage pizza from here and they gave us this. We caked asking for a new pizza or a refund and they were extremely rude. Last time we'll be ordering from here. The picture really doesn't do justice to the pizza we received. It looked like they took a freshly made cheese pizza and attached a week old third of a pepperoni and sausage pizza to one side while attaching a week old stale mushroom pizza third to the other side. How this place expects to stay in business with the new pizza places opening (or newly opened) is beyond me. Buyer beware. read more

Rosatis Urbana - Pizza Near Me - Urbana, Illinois

Dren Service was told 15 minutes for breadsticks Waited 20 before approching the counter and they seemed to have lost my order. Too busy joking around about a delivery drivers customer whom had cussed in front of her kids, thus the entire establishment had to hear the entire event paraphrased including the curse words, as well as employees threatening to dump tubs of sauce on each other. Perhaps less fiddle farting around and make sure orders are not being lost. Have employees stand and watch things cook without talking to anyone else or diddling their devices so they can learn the true time it takes to make items. And not quote lies to customers. read more

I ordered a large thin crust Fab Four (sausage, mushroom, green pepper and onion) and a cannoli. The pizza is good (loaded with cheese), however, I do not recommend their cannoli. This is their description (from their website): Cannoli $3.95 Crisp Sicilian pastry shells filled with sweetened ricotta & chocolate chips, dipped into mixed nuts & covered with powdered sugar There were no chocolate chips in the filling. As I picked it up, it flopped over and fell apart-far from crisp, the shell was rubbery. Ick! Next time, I'll order dessert from someplace else that knows how to make dessert pastries. Overall, okay. Nothing to rave about, but I've had far worse. read more

I have had Rosati's pizza many times here in Urbana and in Bloomington where I used to work... It's usually pretty good - sometimes even really good. Especially in Bloomington. Yesterday (Sunday 8/28/22) I ordered a small (10") thin crust with mushrooms and onions as a carry out order. I waited 30 mins for my pizza. Got home and was VERY DISAPPOINTED. For the $19 price tag I got a pretty lousy pizza. Not much cheese and very unevenly spread on the pizza (many pieces on the edge of the pizza had NO CHEESE at all) The toppings were pretty sparse and very unevenly spread on the pizza. The sauce was OK... had some flavor but not worth the $19 I paid. I could have gone to Little Ceasar's and grabbed a ready to go za for $ 6 - gotten a much better pizza and saved $13 in the process. POOR QUALITY and VERY OVER PRICED... No more Rosati's for me read more

Their pizza is okay but there are definitely better options on campus to go to. Their other entrees are decent as well, such as their burgers and ravioli, but a bit pricy for the average college student. read more

Don't expand your chain if there is no quality control in place to ensure an equal experience at all of your outlets. I grew up on Rosati's and our experience here was a complete disaster. Send the kids making the pies back to Rosati's pizza making school. This was a complete train wreck on multiple levels. Ordered online. When I saw that delivery was to be 70 -80 minutes I panicked. We had been on the road for more than 8 hours, we were tired and hungry. So I called the local restaurant to see if that estimate was accurate. First dial, immediately put on hold. After 5 minutes hung up and dialed again. On hold for 7 minutes and just left it on speaker. Finally a human. Assured me that the pizza would be there within the hour but already wasted almost 15 minutes just trying to call and cancel. So we waited and waited and what did we get? The antithesis of a Rosati's pie - barely lukewarm (if you are going to offer a delivery service, make the effort to ensure that your product arrives at its optimal level). The pizza was soooo skimpy on the sausage you had to steal from other pieces just to have enough topping. (True Chicago pies never suffer from a lack of pork chunks), The thin crust was neither flaky or crisp. It was just dull and tasteless with an overload of tomato sauce, that wasn't even fresh. Building a flavorful pizza is not just about the quality of the individual ingredients but also about finding the right balance to create a final product. Rosati's here must be trying to capitalize on being in a college town, thinking that the student body can't taste a bad pie when they eat one. I'm pretty sure you can't fool them. Didn't fool us. read more

I am shocked by all the mediocre reviews for Rosati's so I had to chime in. I love pizza, I've eaten at every pizza place in Champaign, Chicago, the suburbs, you name it- as far as the C-U goes, this is best you can get. I am only speaking to the thin crust though, I've never had the deep dish. I have had it delvered and picked up and it is always a pleasure to deal with the people there. The last time they had a mix up and I had to wait an extra five minutes for my pizza. The manager came out and apologized profusely, offered to have it delivered to me and gave me a coupon for a free pizza. On top of that, the guy who messed up the order came out and personally apologized. You can't beat the service in my mind. The pizza is true Chicago thin crust, cracker crust, good sweet sauce, and tons of cheese. Some of the other reviews didn't like the amount of cheese, but I think its perfect. Definitely give the place a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

We ordered online on a Sunday night about 715..finally got our food delivered around 840. Didn't think they'd be so busy on a Sunday night. My husband's calzone was soggy and falling apart. My fried mushrooms and husbands hot wings were soggy. Garlic bread was tough. None of the food was hot...I wouldn't even really call it warm either. We don't have many delivery options where we live, so now our options are even more limited. And on top of the less than sub par food, when I called to see when our food would come, the employee argued with me about what time I actually placed the order. We won't be ordering Rosatis again. read more

Don't pick this place for the middle-o-road decent cheap pizza. Was craving lasagna and gave Rosati's a shot. OM Gobz super yum. Takes them up another star just for that alone! The bread stick and box of iceberg with one slice of cuke were kinda lame sauce. But enough lasagna for 2 meals at my appetite level. Their delivery has been always quick and reliable. read more

After a year long hiatus because of some pizza that I had catered that tasted bland, I decided to try Rosati's again. This should go without saying but I've started using EatCU lately and they've got some pretty good deals for the food here. I got The EatCU daily steal with ten bucks of food for $5.. I was planning on getting something delivered but the gift card had to be used in-store so I decided to get lunch there with a friend today and I'm so glad I did. The ambience is great! I ordered a lasagna which, as the others commenters all agree, is more than good enough for one serving. The salad sucked and the breadsticks were ok but the lasagna made up for more than the flaws. My friend got a vegan pizza and they were more than accommodating with the preparation and it looked great. I would warn you that it seems like the workers like to leave right on time though because I came here at 10:59 last night and they said they were closed. Fortunately Merry Ann's on the corner is open 24/7! read more

I tried Rosati's for the first time yesterday. They have a 1/2 OFF ON TUESDAYS deal so I thought why not? I was not expecting much, after all this is Champaign-Urbana! I must say though that I was pleasantly surprised. I am a lover of thin crust and their Pepperoni Classic was very tasty. Mushrooms, gooey cheese, great crust,yummy sauce...what more do you need? Not bad at all for Champaign-Urbana! They are located on campus but it's summer now so it's completely void of college brats. Lovely!! read more

I'm not familiar with Chicago-styled pizza.. but whatever the case, I love the warm carby and cheesy feel of Rosati's pizza in my mouth. They give an unusually amount of cheese that I can feel my arteries clogging, but I'm not complaining! I think overall it deserves more credit than it's gotten! They seem to have a decent pasta entree menu too! read more

definitely mediocre.. This is the place I turn to around this area to replace my cravings for pizza, more specifically the Lou Malnati's deep dish. I only order on Mondays for the 50% off pizzas which makes it pretty legit. If you're not looking for high end taste but just a generally good pizza experience, it's the place to go. SO my story is that I go on Mondays, get a large pizza for 50% off, and just eat it for all my meals which last me til Wednesday. ~12-18$ for 3 days of meals isn't so bad. . . especially if I get sick of it by the last slice. Promptness is average. sometimes it runs longer though. I'd give it an extra 10-15 min after the estimated time. read more

Pizza below average, service and management bad. Ordered a thin crust sausage pizza and the flavor was lackluster to say the least. The dough did not seem as if it was cooked all the way. The sausage was alright, but the chewy dough didn't help the overall flavor. Also, when I bit down into my pizza, I bit into a piece of plastic. I informed the girl at the register about this plastic, and her response was just "i'm sorry". Not getting the manager and no show of concern. The overall lack of concern regarding that fact that I just bit into a large (about 2 square inch) piece of plastic perplexed me. I am usually a Rosati's fan, but not of this location. read more
