“I can not gush about this restaurant enough. I just had my son's rehearsal in their outdoor space off the back of the restaurant. We had 76 guests, and when I say the staff rolled out the red carpet...it's an understatement. All my guests were raving about the food. They accommodated ALL ALLERGIES. It was literally the perfect night in every way. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SPACE FOR EVENTS.”

“Great food and experience. Just a little louder inside than I prefer.”
“Great local Italian restaurant in Elmhurst on Spring rd. From the time our host seated us to the time we left the hospitality was great. We dine outside very often & I must say the customer service at Roberto’s was above & beyond… We have dietary restrictions & the manager was kind enough to make good suggestions & made sure the chef swapped certain sauces with another based on our request. The Days special (Ravioli) was a great option for us to get started while we were waiting on our steaks.. The prime fillet and the New York ribeye were just perfect with delicious sides. The overall restaurant setting was great however a bit too loud for us on a Friday night… Overall delicious food, great customer service if You ever wanna try some great Italian in Elmhurst… Grazie Mille…”
“I love their pizza. To me it’s one of the best New York style pizzas in all of Chicago! And if the owner can please read my thoughts I would appreciate it. I’m originally a native New Yorker and always crazier style Pizza and New Jersey everywhere and I will never buy that Pizza in any other state because it’s no good. But Roberto’s comes super close. The dough is perfect and chewy just like New York style… to see the deal, I would love for there to be more cheese throughout the pie because about one and a half inches before the crust all around there is no cheese and there is very little sauce. There are many nice pizza toppings and you can enjoy choosing one w toppings already planned on it vs your own. It’s in the basement and both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating has beautiful water views. It’s very hard to get this New York. NEw Jersey chewy dough so enjoy it. Plus it’s so nice that the AMC theater is only 2 blocks away. And it’s our favorite one where it shows all US and international films. Great location.”
“Excellent ambiance with outstanding bar and mouth watering Italian dishes. This is place to impress your first date, a birthday surprise party, or any special occasion to celebrate. Easy parking lot across the street.”
“Roberto's thin crust is my absolute favorite! Thier crust is perfection!”
