Well, we finally made it back to Skipolini's. There's just so many places to go and things to try in this area that it takes time to get around... this time there wasn't a large group, it was just the family. The pizza and pasta were great! Service was good, and sitting in the general dining area, as opposed to a banquet room, was certainly enjoyable. I'm sure after this experience we won't take as long to make it back again.
Although I'm giving a 3 star, just know....the pizza is amazing and all the employees are super nice. It was a HOT day, so it was nice to walk in because they had the AC on. After sitting at the table for a minute, it was actually getting really cold. We placed our order for a family size half cheese half pepperoni pizza, bacon wrapped jalapeños, garlic bread. I was hoping it would be old fashioned garlic bread, but its a flat bread with cut in triangles with cheese on top. The jalapeños were good, and pizza is amazing. The first time they came to our table, they brought two pizzas and placed them down. I let the guy know it was not our order. He apologized, took one, said he would go find out what happened, and walked away leaving one pizza at our table. He then came back a couple minutes later and picked up the pizza and brought ours. After we ate, it did take a long time to get our bill; but it was getting pretty crowded. Our waitress was really nice, and she was always at a table or at the bar helping someone. Overall, we will be back, because we enjoyed the food and the servers were nice. There are definitely other dishes that we would love to try.
Wife asked me to pick up the labor inducing pizza. It's an expensive pizza, but it is loaded with a lot of quality toppings. This is a special event/fine dining pizza. This isn't an everyday Domino's pizza. While it did not induce labor, it was still a good pizza. When I picked up the order, I entered through the pick up side entrance. The waiter that was helping was very friendly. While I live far from this place, I would go back when I am in the Roseville area. The place has nice decorations and seems family friendly.
Pasta lunch [Rocklin CA] It's been a minute since our last meal here at Skipolini's. Took my second child here for lunch since she likes her pastas. Sunday lunch hour was not too busy and we were seated right away. She ordered her favorite, the PAPPARDELLE BOLOGNESE and I chose their SHRIMP SCAMPI. Food was served at a decent time, in fact, it was amazingly fast. Our server checked on us about twice during the duration of our lunch providing friendly and attentive service. You would think with these ingredients my Shrimp Scampi would be flavorful (sautéed shrimp, lemon, garlic, white wine, and tomatoes tossed with spaghetti pasta and parmesan cheese) for me it was a bit bland. It could be just me because my daughter really enjoyed her Pappardelle Bolognese. Coming back for the Blackened Salmon next time. Review #0071 updated
Stopped in with the family for some pizza. Dough is fresh, the kids got a piece of uncooked dough to play with. When they're not busy the little ones get to build their own pizza, which is nice. We ordered pepperoni and olives for half of a pizza, extra olives. We didn't get receive it but wait staff was nice and apologetic. Overall great atmosphere, clean, and offers a variety of gelato.
Got the "PREGO" and gave birth the following morning at work. LOL. - Pizza is always good. Ingredients were fresh and crust bake to perfection. Yummy.. -First time at this location, usually frequent the Folsom spot. I guess i'm just use to what I'm familiar with and think the regular spot is just a little bit better. - Shrimp Scampi was delicious. Pasta was al dente, and sauce was spot on. The GARLIC BREAD-WOW, nice and toasty. Brought the dish together. -Overall, an excellent spot with pretty good service. Will definitely recommend and revisit when out that way.
Service is excellent and so is the food. We had a company party here and had a table for 24 people. Our items were placed ahead of time. The pizzas are very good and well seasoned. I am usually not a fan of salads, but their house salad was very good. Servers are very friendly and makes sure you have everything you need. It is a very big restaurant with plenty of seatings.
1st time ever visit. Me & spouse Yelp Elite Barbara S. for dinner. Friendly greeting. Immediate seating. Prompt arrival of server. Drinks ordered. Delivered in 4 minutes. A fairly spacious dining room. About 1/2 full. Everybody has pizza on their table. Do they know something? Barb and me decide to be iconoclasts. She orders chicken piccata. I order flank steak. For the opener we share a small Skip's salad. It's plenty big, tasty ans satisfying. Entrees arrive 14 minutes later. Nice plate presentation. But then, uh-ooh, there's a problem. After the first bite of my risotto I taste that there is something sour and not supposed to be there. I eat 4 forkfuls more. Then Barbara tastes the rissotto and says " Stop eating that, it is spoiled!" I have to agree with her. We tell the server and the manager. Much conversation ensues, nothing confrontational. Manager tastes nothing off. Barb and I insist that it's not the aroma of the cheese, but the abborio rice has been out for too many hours at room temperature. Spoiled rice can cause sever sickness. People have actually died from eating 2 day old rice that has been left out on the kitchen counter for 2 days. I know this, I'm Italian, I've eaten risotto since an infant. I'm 74 years old now. So we lend our advice on safe food procedures. The manager is grateful that we are not being assholes. Comped tiramisu dessert. $89 bill with tax and tip. Fine. I like the corporate, but not corporate dining room. The servers were all super nice. I'll return. But it's pizza next time.
This place is in our regular rotation of go-to places for dinner. The pizzas are one of our favorite items to order here. They're even able to make it with non dairy cheeses. Always happy with the food here. My son also begs for gelato before we go. He only wants chocolate so we haven't tried the others but the texture is nice.
So first time there and ordered the scampi that came with some toasted bread. . We also ordered a few different pizzas that were so damn good. Crust was perfect, no toppings was spared. Some serious Pies! We also ordered the jalapeño poppers which were a good snack while we waited. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.
Came out to Skipolinis to support Ruhkala Elementary fundraiser. We ordered the Skip's Dip and Bruxelles Fritti. The Skip's Dip was a classic Italian started oil and vinegar dip. The bread was fresh and warm. The Bruxelles Fritti was delicious. I would def order again. We also ordered a family size Cesar salad--so good. I'm pretty sure they make their dressing in house. For the entree we ordered the legendary Prego Pizza. It has every topping you can imagine. I think it was good but would have been better if it cooked a little bit longer. It was slightly over done. It was a busy restaurant--it's Friday night. Our server was great and stayed on top of refills and other needs (ranch, napkins,drinks). I appreciated they had a small playground outside for kids to play on. It's a great family friendly restaurant.

Pizza was delicious! We got a Prego Pizza which has everything on it! It's the Supreme of supreme pizzas. The only ingredient I didn't care for on the pizza was the hamburger. The Joe they use is Super Fresh and soft. We also got the bacon wrapped jalapenos which were good. It's a nice place to go sit down and relax and eat. They don't rush you and it's a very relaxed atmosphere. Our waitress made sure we were happy the whole time we were there. You will have plenty of leftovers! I could only eat a piece and a half of pizza because it was full of meats and vegetables. The Prego Pizza has salami ham sausage pepperoni and hamburger. It has double onions mushrooms and green bell peppers. Cooked to perfection. read more

My first time tried Skipolini's out, and it was hands down delicious and perfect down to the crust. My husband is gluten, lactose, and garlic intolerant, so when I placed the order with Door Dash, I added in the note "no garlic - has allergy" within seconds after I placed the order, I got a phone a call from the chef letting me know he notice the note and that the sauce has garlic in it and if I wanted to change to a different sauce. That was very thoughtful, and I appreciated that he called. The gluten lactose free pizza was perfect as my husband put it and he have had many gluten free pizzas from other places before. The Hawaiian pizza was a create my own and it was delicious as well. Overall I will order from here again and will spread the words amongst friends. A big thank you to the chef that work on 4/11/20 during this COVID-19. read more

We had such an excellent experience at Skipolini's hosting our baby shower in their Banquet room. The manager Manni did such a fantastic job taking care of our party and all the servers were so helpful and went above and beyond with service. All our guests left very happy and the pizzas were so delicious and fresh. The salads were superb, we received many compliments on choosing Skipolini's restaurant for our Baby Shower. Their Banquet room was the perfect size for our large party of 25 and we even had a dessert table and a gift table. It matched our rustic theme and each table was nicely set before our arrival to decorate for our shower. Perfect location for kids because they have lots of space and even have a jungle gym outside in their seating area. Everyone was very kind and helpful and made this event truly special for us. We will definitely be back for more events. Thank you!!! read more
After spending several hours planting a tree at my parent's house, which consisted of working in the blazing sun, trying to remove thousands of rocks beneath the ground, and redirecting the watering drip system, we finally ended the day thirsty and starving! We began our search for a restaurant that the 3 of us could agree upon. Skipolini's appeared on the horizon among other places. But since we had never tried them before, it looked like a great place to take a load off, cool off, and eat something substantial. I was more thirsty than hungry at first, and the waitress, Suzette, quickly brought us large cups of ice water right after we were seated at a nice, comfortable booth in the lounge area. Joe K also got a giant glass of the restaurant's own home brew IPA, while I got a Diet Pepsi and my dad had root beer. I wasn't in the mood for pizza or pasta dishes, but among their many selections, they had a nice variety of salads listed on the menu. I chose a strawberry & mandarin orange spinach salad that had just the right amount of ingredients including red onions, toasted slivered almonds, goat cheese served with a Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette. Joe K ordered the Skipolini's Cheese Burger which was a half pound Certified Angus Beef Patty grilled and topped with bacon, melted cheddar cheese, and garnished with tomatoes, lettuce, onion, pickles, and their own homemade 1000 island dressing on a sesame seed bun. My dad got the shrimp scampi which consisted of sauteed shrimp with lemon, garlic, and white wine tossed with spaghetti noodles and two slices of garlic bread. Joe and I really enjoyed our food, but unfortunately, my dad wasn't too fond of the shrimp scampi. Apparently, it lacked flavor and he was expecting smaller sized shrimps rather than the prawn sized ones that were served. The restaurant interior was very nice and cozy, as was the bar area. There were 2 flat screen TV's at the bar. Our server Suzette gave us great service and made us feel welcome as patrons. I hope we return here again (if my dad is willing) to try other menu options and maybe a cocktail or two...... They also have Happy Hour! read more

Quite possibly the worst lunch I've had in quite a while. This is a nice place, too much potential. But if the "bread" they use on their pianini sandwiches is any indication of the other dishes, I'll only be disappointed. I did walk by the kitchen on the way to the restroom and saw a very nice looking pizza coming off the pass and the menu looked decent enough. That sandwich was a huge "strike one". The waitress was kind enough to give a discount on the already overpriced sandwich. At this point I'd say it's a coin flip. read more
I had a friend visiting from the Bay Area and we wanted pizza. She said she liked Skipolini's near her house and that there was one up here in this area. So, OK we'll give it a try. The place pretty much looks like a pizza place alright. Service was good . We got seated and drink orders taken just fine. The house special pizza is this Prego Pizza .... Yeah like the spaghetti sauce! I guess it's just the name. The price was a little shocking for pizza , almost $28 for a medium pizza, no small size offered. My friend offers to buy, well, OK then! The pizza arrives and yes, that's one heavy looking pizza. Medium size for sure. I will say, the pizza was very good, though maybe just a little too many toppings added, but better than not enough. I was told to stay away from the rest of the food offerings as they weren't that good and stay with the pizza. I think if this pizza was priced a little lower, like abut $20, then I'd get it again, but for me the Prego isn't worth the price, maybe one of the lower priced pizzas might be better. read more

We come here for lunch, very rarely for dinner. Lunch here is typically pretty dead which we love. I always order the big slice meal deal, which is at the bottom of the lunch page, for 8.75. You get a BIG slice of pizza, some garlic bread, Caesar salad and a cookie. For 8.75!!! It is a good deal!!! But this time I walk in and the sign on top of the hostess podium said $2 pint of IPA, $4 dollar jar and $8 pitcher. SIGN ME UP!!! What a deal. Go get it before it is gone and thank me later. read more

Hubby and I decided to eat out for dinner one evening and resorted to this restaurant. Considering I'm pregnant and ready for this baby to pop out, I decided to try out their Preggo pizza for fun! I love the ambiance of this establishment - it really has a family oriented feel to it; lots of large tables to bring the family together. They also have surrounding tables next to the fireplace which gives it that "home" feel! We ordered of course, the "Preggo Pizza" topped with salami, pepperoni, ham, along with ample veggie toppings and herb spices. This pizza was served hot out of the oven and deeelicious!!! The dough was nice and soft, just how I like it! Love that there is an open view of the kitchen where you can see your pizza handmade by the chefs! Also love the fact that there was a guy constantly cleaning the pizza oven both inside and out. (Glad to know this place is clean!) I read over reviews from other patrons that the service here was poor, but our server that evening was fantastic. She came around often to replenish our beverages and to check up on us making sure we were doing okay. We noticed there was a small little dessert shop on our way out and decided to share a cup of caramel praline gelato to go. The gentlemen serving us was super friendly! I would probably give the dessert bar 3 stars - only because we thought their gelato wasn't anything spectacular, especially the fact that they don't make their own gelatos. :( Now to the question: Did the Preggo pizza put me into labor just hours after eating the pizza? Absolutely not! Lol! But it was definitely worth the kicks and giggle and I definitely will be back for their Preggo pizza even if I'm not pregnant! read more

Italian food is difficult to find in northern California and you do happen to find a place, it is usually overpriced or not good at all. This is not the case for Skipilini's pizza in Rocklin, CA. Everything, from the service to the atmosphere (and most importantly, the food) is top-grade. I have been eating here for years and not once have I had a bad experience. The managers there are constantly around to either make sure your experience is perfect as well or they are helping out with their servers if it is too busy (shout out to Manny and Austin for always making me feel super welcomed, you guys really know how to run a restaurant!). Also, their staff are a delight to be served by; everyone's always in a great mood and make my day when I visit them. So if you are in the mood for some tasty Italian food, Skips is an A+ choice for any occasion. Besides that, they also offer burgers, steaks, and a variety of other entrees that can satisfy most cravings you might have. Theres also a bar with beers on tap and a gelato station that is to die for! Dont miss out on the gem in the Rocklin/ Roseville area! P.S. In my last visit, I ordered flank steak with garlic asiago fries as my appetizer, featured in my posted photos. It is as delicious as it looks! read more

This place is always busy and for good reason. I love pizza and this is a good place to get it. $20 gets u a medium speciality pizza thats good for 2 and you'll still have leftovers. The crust has that crispiness that i like but a lil thicker than say a Straw Hat pizza crust. Plus its not as salty as say a Roundtable Pizza. But if you like toppings this is the place to go. I never seen a pizza with such a generous serving of toppings. Their pizza is just drowning in veggies and meats. Go with the "prego" pizza - a mega combo of toppings overflowing in veggies, ham, sausage, ground beef, etc. Skip the creme brulee. its gross. too thick and too chunky! yikes. For the spring n summertime, they have an outdoor eating area with sofas, tables, tvs, and even a fireplace! a playground for the kids too. They also have a dessert bar called Dolce Bene that serves gelato, hawaiian shaved ice and yogurt. Perfect after you finish your pizza. Its right by the movie theaters too. Great for your date nites. holler! read more

Long awaited to come here to try out their famous "Prego Pizza" because my friends who were pregnant ordered it and I wanted to try it myself, and no you don't have to be pregnant to order this pizza, there is a story behind it on their website you can read. Location: The location is in a rocklin shopping area with plenty of parking. The building is easy to spot and very spacious and perfectly decorated giving a very family-style setting. I love how the tables are not uniform and there are various seating arrangements. Prego Pizza: OMG this pizza was really good! The seasonings were just the perfect mixture and the toppings were endless but it all was good, just even making this review my mouth is watering. Medium was more than enough for me and my friends to have at least 2 slices each, there was a total of 4 of us. I came for the pizza but the other three were crazy to get something else, of course i had bites out of all of them and they were delicious. Service was a bit slow, but that was because were put in a booth that was secluded from everyone else which was okay we had two babies with us too, :) I would go here again if i was just craving the pizza because i can't stop thinking of it :) read more
Where to start.. the spinach and artichoke dip (that's pictured) was delicious. My bartender Kara was awesome! Very friendly and attentive even the customers who said they were regulars are very friendly too. The menu was big enough for anybofy to pick from so would be a great place to bring friends and or family to! I will definitely be back! Can't wait to try more of the food and the drinks were awesome read more

My wife and I haven't been to Skipolini's in a while so we decided to go. We're from the East Bay so we both grew up going to the Skipolini's in Antioch. The restaurant wasn't very full so we were sat right away. Our server was nice and I have always enjoyed the big booth Skipolini's offers. I also appreciated the Healthy menu that is offered as well. My wife ordered a custom pizza and I ordered the Seafood Risotto. The risotto was delicious and my wife really enjoyed her pizza - who am I kidding? So did I! We had a wonderful experience and we will return again. read more

Cruisin through Roseville/ Rocklin we stumbled upon this Italian restaurant. Parking lot was full so we decided to give it a try and luckily we did! Tonight we decided on some pizza because it only seemed right. Started off with some calamari fritti and I loved the lemon aioli sauce that came with it! We did a half & half pizza - All Meat sub ground beef with pineapple & the Martinelli sub bell peppers for artichoke. The pizza was LOADED with toppings, crust was cooked perfectly with a slight crunch and easy to chew. Drinks we ordered our server Nicole/Nikki favorite Lavender mojito & mystic margarita. The mojito was delicious and I would totally recommend! Size, alcohol portion and color! The margarita was ok, I would recommend less ice to be more enjoyable than just two sips. The service from other members was nice, polite and quick service upon asking for items. Other than the ruckus of children running around, throwing dough, and yelling during the experience. It's understood that it's a family restaurant but, parents please do your part and control your children. It's not a chucky cheese! Other than that, I recommend this spot for a tasty pizza craving and drinks! read more

Feels like a mom and pop restaurant with plenty of options on the menu for everyone, good service, good quality food, nice outdoor seating with a play area for the kids. Met up with some family for lunch here. My bro and sis-in-law have 2 little ones; a 3 year old and a 1 year old. I think one of the best features of this restaurant is their outdoor seating and play area for the kids. It's not a common thing for a nice restaurant to have such features. I hadn't had pizza in forever, and had to take advantage of such an appropriately named pizza... PREGO pizza for the preggers lady! It was bomb! I love combo pizza. The PREGO was excellent with lots of meat and veggies. Highly recommend! Hubs had the chicken parmesan. That on the other hand was not so good. Another person ordered a spinach and steak salad. The skirt steak looked great! I wouldn't mind dining here again. The only trouble is Roseville has so many awesome and different food places to try. So some day.... read more
I haven't been back here in years. We ate there just a hour and a half ago or so. Our server was Max. Tonight, family movie night and dinner. The movie was great! Dinner- the actual food, very tasty! The actual service, mediocre at best. Like I said the food that ranged from a couple appetizers, salad, beer, and pizza was good. We got waters all around. What we didn't get was offered much of anything: water refills, Parmesan Cheese, Peppers, or Dipping sauce at all. Not by anyone. When we ordered I wasn't quiet ready to order a drink. Yes, I know I could have grabbed his attention to order my drink or anything else listed above for that matter. However, I felt like I shouldn't have to. He was absolutely obviously. One other waitress cleared two appetizer plates. Nothing else was removed at any point. It was just a sad experience with zero personality or courtesy. read more
This is our very first visit to this establishment and the chain itself. The atmosphere is lively and the noise level inside is average based on Yelp! Definition. We opted to sit outside this evening as it was it was much more comfortable than the fully blasted AC which sent shivers to my family. Plus I have all the time in the world to write this up as we wait for our order. Sitting outside has to take guts. I say this as it is very loud with all the cars going into the shopping area and cars going past it on a very busy street. Especially if a single or several Harley's go by it can get deafening with their exhaust pipes not to mention other modified car exhaust as well. There is an outdoor TV and seating (UCLA vs. STANFORD is tonight's Pac12 game) and a kids gym tube play area while you wait for your entree or as in our case utensils and the appetizer (garlic bread) which all showed up 20 min late and the bread was just warm like sitting under a heating lamp. When we asked for our utensils we got them loose rather than the table who was seated just after us all wrapped and presented to each guest by their server and not the host! Our hostess just sat us down and walked away. Service towards the outside seating lacks and has no attention whatsoever. We witness the table guests that was seated after us receive 2 Caesars salad and two clam chowders albeit 10 minutes apart. While we have finished our appetizer but yet to receive our entree order, which consisted of 2 kids Mac and Cheese, Eggplant Parmigiana, Shrimp Scampi, Cajun Pasta and a small Combo Pizza. The sun has set and the temp has gotten cooler since I first started this right after our Garlic Bread showed up. I will end this review (7:40PM PST) now as I need to make a complaint. I can't even criticize the food we ordered as it still hasn't showed up!!! **Update same night** Soon as I made a complaint our meal was delivered within 5 minutes. Dewey(sp.) (Shift Manager/Supervisor/Store Manager) came to our table and explained why there is a delay and that this Restaurant is never like this and that he deeply apologizes for the delay and hope that they can make another 'first impression'. We spoke briefly and gave him advice that if this 'scenario' ever happens again to inform the Host/Hostess as well as all the servers to briefly explain to customers waiting and seated about the delay. I told him that most would be understanding but since most of us had no clue we all had sour faces and wish the evening was already over or gone to another restaurant! I do plan on coming back to experience all what Rocklin/Roseville/Sac Region residents has experienced and YELP!'d so much about this place. Let's hope that on our next visit their 'scenario' has been resolved and their level of service is back to where it once was. Great Service and Great Food. Again Thanks Dewey (sp) for your kindness and understanding. My four girls really loved the food and they hope to try Dolce Bene and its offerings as well. read more
