Athena (sun dried tomato garlic pesto, roasted mushrooms, smoked prosciutto, mozzarella cheese)
Alvin B.

My wife and I decided to give this place a shot after hearing people talk about how great this place is! We went for dinner on the Sunday after Thanksgiving and it was relatively empty (as expected after the holiday weekend). Even with it being empty, we were still greeted with a smile and were seated right away. Our server was very nice, too! We ordered the chicken wings to start and wow, it was pretty spicy! Nowhere in the menu did it say it was spicy but my wife and I still liked it a lot. Packed a good punch but it wasn't unbearable. It was nice and crispy as well and they were fairly big. You also get 6 in an order. I ordered the Athena and it was very tasty! The crust was really thin and the dough was cooked just right. Not so soft but also not very firm! Every bite had a great amount of topping so you weren't just biting into one topping or not at all. As for the cheese pizza, it was decent. Not a ton of flavor happening and was honestly surprised their house red sauce was pretty mild in flavor. My wife might try the Bianca next time but isn't sure how she would feel about the ricotta cheese. Overall, it was a great experience! The place was well lit and very clean. The staff was very attentive and friendly. The food was still very delicious despite the cheese pizza being just ok. We'll definitely come back again!

We dropped in for dinner - this was a place we had tried in the past under different names, and we wanted to see what Zana's had to offer. Wood Fire Pizza - that has a specific meaning, and it was fully met here. I ordered their Supreme Calzone and my wife had their 12" DeKalb Pizza. Both were served hot and fresh off the wood fire, and were very tasty. Before we ordered those, we ordered an appetizer of onion rings. They were served with ranch dip and came out very hot. For drinks we just had soft drinks, but they stayed full. I decided to have a piece of their Tuxedo Truffle Cake, which was pretty good. Service was solid - we were greeted and seated promptly and as I indicated, our drinks stayed full. The bathrooms were clean and smelled like they should. In terms of the restaurant, lots of eye candy around the place, several TVs playing, and just a nice general "pizza place" atmosphere. We'll be back.

This was the closest to cafeteria pizza and pasta it could get. Went with my boyfriend who eats anything, and even he couldn't stomach more than a few bites. Very bland, no seasoning. Service was slow even when restaurant was empty on a Friday evening.

Solid choice. Fast service, friendly staff. Consistently good every time we've been. Would recommend it!

For sure it's not a nice looking place but this isn't where to go to impress anyone. The cheap prices and cheap tastes are the main things. A lot of bars around here are nothing special looking, and this is no exception. It's pretty much a worn out looking place. The inside is bigger than it looks, with room enough for quite a crowd to watch games and stuff. Lots of good deals going on. These are daily and weekly. It's about $4 for a cocktail. The basics like whiskey and Coke or whatever. A lot of classic appetizers. It's about $4 for the World Famous Willies. Highly suspect these are that famous. These are fried pizza dough balls served with red sauce. Also you can get these with garlic and Parmesan cheese. The pizzas are pretty greasy but still are popular. Classic small town college bar. It's open in the afternoon to late at night, so lots of time to come in and have good times. There's plenty of the locals, not just the college students who like to hang out or whatever.

Best place to go in Sycamore for drinks along with some pizza of course. If your idea of a party is…read morepigging out on pizza, while combining it with suds and cocktails, then this is the place for it. Pizza Beer Whiskey explains the entire menu it seems. Has a pretty large amount of basic and gourmet toppings to choose from. The prices are higher than the crap chains but it's much better tasting. Always busy. It's a pretty good sign that people like to come here. This is located pretty close to NIU so obviously the name is pretty easy to understand for even the thickest skulled of frat boys and other college students. A few words to get their attention. Have to speak the language of the locals. A crap ton of local beers. It's about $8 a pint. Splurge a bit more for some finely aged whiskey. It's about $18 for a medium pizza. That's kind of a lot but this isn't mass produced chain pizza though. Also you can get it with vegan cheese. This melts like the real stuff. We got one of the Sergeant Pepper pizzas New York style. Filling. This comes with arugula, black olives, cherry tomatoes, green peppers, mozzarella but we got the vegan substitute, mushrooms, and onions. Big enough for a couple. They have even bigger ones that are expensive but are good for parties. Crazy place for tons of good drinking and eating. It's located on West State Street. There's good options for meat eaters as well as vegans and vegetarians.

We recently held our son's rehearsal dinner here, and unfortunately, I was very disappointed with…read morehow our event was handled. I want to start with the positives: the food was excellent, and our server, Sam, and the bartender (I believe her name was Brooke) worked incredibly hard. They were pleasant, helpful, and truly did the best they could. My frustration is not with them at all--they were simply given far too much to handle. Neither was dedicated to our event. Sam was serving our party AND other customers in the restaurant, and the bartender was also responsible for our group and the rest of the restaurant. It took approximately 45 minutes for everyone at our rehearsal dinner to receive their first drink. The staff was stretched so thin that I found myself putting food out and bussing tables during my son's rehearsal dinner. When we arrived, there weren't even enough tables and chairs set up for our guests, so our family helped set those up as well. What was especially frustrating is that we paid an additional fee for an event coordinator, as well as a fee to use the space. I'm still unclear about what those fees actually provided. I would have expected an event coordinator to make sure the space was ready, adequate staff was scheduled, and the event ran smoothly. That was not our experience. I initially chose not to leave a public review because I wanted to give management the opportunity to address my concerns directly. I emailed them after the event explaining our experience and received no response. I resent the email twice and still received no acknowledgment or response. That lack of communication is ultimately what prompted me to share our experience publicly. Again, the food was excellent and Sam and Brooke deserve recognition for working so hard. But for a special event that included additional charges for the space and event coordination, I expected a much higher level of planning, staffing, service, and follow-up.
