What can I say my brother-in-law is a good guy w/a lot of good qualities, however his choice of restaurants hasn't been exactly stellar tonight 02/02/18 was no exception. We went to Shakey's Pizza (I mean pizza in the Philippines?) (we're from Chicago Home of the deep dish pizza) with my wife, brother in law, his niece & 3 grandkids.
He ordered a special that came with 7 pieces of fried chicken, fried potato discs, garlic bread, pasta carbonara & pizza (of course). While the food was plentiful the quality was average. There wasn't anything that stood out. The thin crust pizza was pretty good, and the rest of the pizza was edible. Overall the food was just ok
The manager Mark was also very nice, but our server was kind of non existent after placing the order. He brought out the entire order minus the pizza (@ least we had something to start on. We were done with our entire order minus the pizza and it was another 15 mins before it finally came to our table. They finally brought the pizza out shaped like a heart ( Valentine's Day) awwww.
Just about the only time the server came back was when it was time to deliver the check. I'm not sure why I tipped him, but I did. Average food, average to poor service garners an average review. read more
