"super delicious! the sundried tomatoes added the perfect bit of acidity and texture to balance out the cheese and cream and the chicken was moist and delicious. from one entree order, I ate one serving and my partner ate two and there's still enough for one of us to have a light lunch! if you're three people, just get one entree and some bread - I promise it's enough!"
"Genuinely amazing. The Fettuccine Shrimp Alfredo was so good and perfectly seasoned. The portion was definitely worth the price and I will be ordering here again. The Garlic Cheese Bread was also deletable with a nice Lipton Brisk Iced Tea (Sweetened, can) on the side. 10/10, I understand the reviews. Fresh and piping hot!"

"Oh my goodness! Eaten Italian everyday in Chicago and this place just killed it. Excellently packaged. Ravioli Al Forno is the best ravioli I've ever tasted. The green chopped salad was flawless. We had not one bad bite and will order again without question."
"Noticed they got rid of the Brussels with bacon side which was already very expensive. Now the Ravioli al Forno recipe has changed. It used to include prosciutto and now doesn't but it's the same price. There was a single piece of spinach i believe as well (there used to be maybe five pieces). These are minor changes but significant change to the flavor and no option to add the prosciutto. The sauce isn't quite as rich as it once was. I also got the Tuscan Cheese Bread which has a noticeable change in the flavor of the cheese. Also the same price. I've been ordering from here for 5 years (it was my very first meal ever in Chicago when i moved here!) but the quality of ingredients have clearly declined. I'd rather prices have increased $1 to remain the high quality flavor it once was. I know everyone is strapped for margins but test pricing before you start stripping away ingredients and quality on classic favorites you are known for!"

Everything was thoughtfully packed, travel-friendly, and the ‘double your portion’ option is a great value for the price. "

I loved the bucatini, it was not as spicy as I anticipated but the flavor was still amazing and the portion was generous. The chicken giardinera was also delicious, and the crispiness of the cutlet was perfect. The best part was that delivery was expeditious so our meals were still steaming when we opened them. Would definitely order again. "
"I ordered the Fried Calamari and Veal Parmigiana for pick up. Portions are heavy and you can easily split between two individuals. Order was quick and ready when I walked over from a nearby hotel.

"The Cacio e Pepe Gnocchi was a 10/10, but I would not get the Truffled Caesar again. It had whole pink peppercorns in it that tasted like soap or something awful. Ruined the salad for me. The chicken was also very overcooked to the point it was almost burned. And the Diet Coke is MINI! You need to order at least 2-3 to get a full bottle. "

"Trivoli's Lobster Mac & Cheese is always fresh, and has a great portion even for take-out. I also got the Smoked Salmon Caesar which is fresh, and they use potato chips instead of croutons. If you want a small salad, I would recommend the half-portion, but if you plan on having the salad for an entree, I'd recommend the full order. In person it seems the portions are a little bigger, but it is great quality nonetheless. I have ordered this many times, and would still order again!"

"I got the TAVERN STYLE pizza with pepperoni after hearing someone on a podcast rave about this as the best pizza they had ever had. That's a high bar! I will say it tasted better than it looked. The flavor on the pepperoni was great, better than any other pepperoni I can think of. If you enjoy Malnati's cornmeal thin crust, this is very similar. Didn't blow me away but I did enjoy it. Got a Side Ranch for dipping and while it seems like it was freshly made, it was a heavy on dill for me. I also think 3 plus bucks for a side of ranch is absurd."

"the cannoli was good, i will say. the tiramisu was also pretty decent, i'm not sure the quality of the coffee was that good, since it tasted a little sour. the alfredo sauce we got on our pasta was really odd, though. we couldn't figure out if it was just really buttery, or if there wasn't any cheese in it, or if the milk was bad, but there was something peculiar about the whole thing. also... the custom pasta portion size was genuinely pathetic--i got a whole 5 tortellini's. the pasta itself tasted fine, but at that price point? ridiculous, really."

"I've never eaten a more delicious turkey sandwich in my life. The addition of the pickled Freshos was brilliant. The turkey in the sofrito aioli was stupendous. Great bread, perfect proportions. My husband ate half of the Sandwich of the Month, and didn't talk once, just relished every bite. Huge chicken cutlet, rich sauce, heavenly bread, just amazing stuff. We will be back, for sure. Five very enthusiastic stars. It's a little pricey, but it's rare when you feel like you got what you paid for these days. I'm absolutely certain that this was worth every penny. Don't hesitate."

"Ordered the Margherita Verace TSG pizza. It was very yum. A little skimpy on the basil, probably like 2 small slithers of basil on the whole pie but still very delicious. Left your hands and fingers a bit black probably from the bottom of the crust. A bit small for the price but good pizza for takeout. Note for pickup, you will need to go upstairs and the far back near the restaurant and bread for pickup "
"Overpriced for what you get. Lo Spaghetto al Pomodoro was oddly oily, as if they'd added olive oil to the pasta water. Portion was small for the price. The Polpette was tender, best part of the meal. The Bufalotta was average, nothing special. "

"Wish they had more meat in the meat sauce, and cooked the noodles for about a minute or two longer. Other than that, flavor was delicious, it was hot and yummy. Like I said, sauce could've used more meat in it, but I'll digress. Overall very happy and pleased. Oh I do wish they gave a small piece of bread or breadstick with every order but that's asking too much lol"
"You literally couldn't get a better DoorDash. Italian food handles the transport well. The wrapping made it last even better. And O.M.G. what they put in the box was amazing. Best Baked Lasagna I've ever had. Best pot roast (Mama's Sunday Sauce) I've ever eaten. Don't wait, just get it."

"My order was not ready when I arrived to pick up. The order time was consistent with what was provided in app. I waited another 10min and still it was ready. I ended up coming back 15min later to it ready for pick up and now cold. While I ordered sausage on the pizza the amount provided is so minimal, it's almost nonexistent. Be sure to select how you want it cut or it won't be cut at all. I would not order this again."

"Their Pastrami Sandwich ONLY was so flavorful & delicious. I normally can eat 1/2 & save the other 1/2 for later not in this case I ate it all in one setting. Definitely will be coming back"
"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (If I could give 10 stars, I would.)
AP Deli on East 75th Street is, without exaggeration, the absolute best corned beef in Chicago.
Every single visit delivers perfection — always fresh, always exceptionally well-seasoned, and always crafted with care. The taste, texture, and temperature are consistently flawless. This is corned beef done the right way — tender, juicy, flavorful, and piled high.
The condiments are always fresh, the pickles have the perfect snap, the peppers bring just the right bite, and the rye bread and onion rolls are top-tier — soft, fresh, and the perfect complement to that incredible meat. Nothing is an afterthought here. Every detail matters, and it shows.
And the service?
Top-line. Top-of-the-charts.
Fast, friendly, professional, and welcoming — they treat you like family while delivering elite-level food.
If you love corned beef — truly love corned beef — this is not optional. This is mandatory. AP DELI da BEST

"Awesome food! We settled in at our hotel at 10 pm on a Saturday and our delivery options had dwindled significantly, I'm glad that it gave me the opportunity to find Nancy's! It's a little bit pricey (especially to be delivered), but the portions are very generous! The amount of roasted chicken in the Fettuccine Alfredo was surprisingly plentiful. No Chipotle half scoops to be found here! The Homemade Fried Mozzarella sticks are huge! Twice as big as your average frozen Sysco truck stick. Tavern style 12" Medium Classic Thin Crust Pizza was cooked and cut perfectly. Will definitely order again when we are back in town!"
"Nancy's contines to have the best tasting tavern style pizza in Chicago. Boneless Chicken Wings and Italian Breadsticks are fire. Homemade Fried Mozzarella continues to disappoint. I want to like it, but they zero flavor. Otherwise, super fresh, generous portions, and all around great pizza."

"A masterclass in indulgence. The buttercrust achieves a remarkable balance of delicate flakiness and crisp structure, while the mozzarella offers exceptional richness without overwhelming the palate. The pepperoni lends a refined savoriness, perfectly complemented by a bright, vibrant tomato sauce. An exquisite expression of Chicago deep dish—every element composed with remarkable precision."
"Food came nice and hot! Marinara that came with the Three-Cheese Bread had great flavor. The pasta with meat sauce and cream could feed 2-3, was a little lack luster but not disappointing and the Deep Dish Pepperoni was perfectly crispy. I recommend!"

"The jerk tacos are always fantastic. However, I DO NOT recommend the GUACAMOLE & CHIPS. A $6.00 charge for this sample size, (photo). I placed the little sauce cup next to the guacamole order to provide a size comparison. Tiny. Disappointing. Not worth the price."

The Salmon Florentine and Chopped Avocado Chicken Salad are favorites but the Flourless Chocolate Cake is a new venture which turned out to be much better than expected and I love chocolate.
Rich, moist and fresh. A bit expensive for such a small-ish slice but worth every penny. Will definitely order it again."
"Could have been a bigger quantity. When I come in and sit to eat, the small is way more than given in a order placed online. Be mindful of that. I paid $20 for 1 maybe 1.5 scoop(s) of Alfredo. Tastes great, I recommend it with the garlic bread"
