We ordered margarita pizza and picked up. We had gone here for 10 years. I am editing my Google Review.

“Oak Park where this restaurant is located is one of my favorite areas in the city”
I really want to love this restaurant but the food is so uneven. It can be good, but mostly misses the mark.
We started with the fried calamari which was a bit chewy. The beet salad was more like an all arugala salad.
“As a vegan, this place is so fantastic (actually, it is so for vegans and omnivores alike).”
As a vegan, this place is so fantastic (actually, it is so for vegans and omnivores alike). I customized my pizza with vegan cheese and cremini mushrooms. (the picture shows my liberal amount of sprinkling of red pepper flakes and oregano for my to go container lol). And the vegan sorbet option - blueberry - had blueberries mixed into it, which made it feel more special than my omnivore dinner companions’ nonvegan sorbet lol My vegetarian son was able to customize his penne pasta from fennel sausage to shrimp yay.

We booked Trattoria 225 for a private event and they were amazing. Their food is delicious! We had the Roasted Beet Salad, Chicken Visuvio, Salmon Spinachi, Pasta Primavera, Risotto, apple crostada with gelato and tiramisu. Nancy and Savannah are spectacular! They were attentive and friendly. They are two of the best servers I’ve ever encountered! It was a memorable day! Thank you, Bill and Trattoria 225 staff.

The pizza here is amazingly delicious! I got takeout on their 2/$22 Tuesday for the first time and I will most definitely be back. What a great deal, I’m so glad to have found this place! I got the BLT pizza and the Goat.

Met some new friends here for dinner tonight and it went amazing. A truly magnificent and welcoming atmosphere. Savannah, our server is the absolute best. I'm definitely returning to dine here. Some very delicious options including the Penne Pasta. It came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Compliments to the chef.

Went for dinner and Jack gave us absolutely wonderful service. We have a toddler and he was very accommodating, we even got to see the pizza oven. Pizza was tasty and the crust was nice and wheaty.

“Had an amazing time.”
Had an amazing time. Exceeded expectations. Service was excellent, food perfect. They were so sensitive to the fact we had to ask about ingredients of all the gluten free offerings, due to other foods we had to avoid. They even caught something I forgot to specify to be gluten free. The chocolate brownie gelato cake, drinks, mussels, portobello mushroom and pizza were delicious. Thank you for a great night out!

“Pizza night at Tratoooria 225.”
Pizza night at Tratoooria 225. Choose any of their rustic pizzas 2 for $20. Add a salad and wine and have yourself a well deserved break. Al fresco dining at it's finest. Great food, friendly attentive service and location in Oak Park's Arts District. Ordered the Pizza Margherita with fresh basil, mozzarella and tomatoes. 2nd pizza was the FunGuy! Mushrooms and smoked Gouda. Try the Grilled ceasar, a quite pleasing and delicious Romain lettuce. House wines are a heavy pour and stored well at the right temps. Definitely will return.

“We had a great experience.”
We had a great experience. This is a great local gem. This place has a lot of room to spread out and keep your social distance. We had the fresh homemade personal pizzas. We recommend The Goat and the BLT Pizza. The Strawberry Walnut salad is a delight for your senses! It is also big enough to share. Service was attentive but not hovering.
