Landmark pizzeria located in beautiful & luxurious downtown Lake Forest is a real gem for the locals and is truly some of THE BEST pizza I've ever had in my life. When it comes to pizza, it really is what you like. Whether it's a popular franchise in the heart of Chicago or the Big Apple, or a hole-in-the-wall in some podunk town in Indiana or New Hampshire or Louisiana or maybe even a frozen pizza brand; to each his/her own. I've only been to this location a couple of times being I did a few take-out orders from the west location which sadly closed down a few years ago. This pizza reigns supreme and for me is #1 tied with another local pizza joint which has locations in Mundelein & Third Lake. Ferrentino's rocks and the venue kept clean/sanitized with an awesome menu with still reasonable prices and excellent customer service. Hope this place stays open for decades to come and I will continue striving to support local.

Ferentinos Pizza should be shut down immediately. I once witnessed a truly disgusting act of negligence. The pizza maker, who won't be named,without a care in the world, sliced off a large, moldy chunk of cheese and tossed it aside. But here’s the kicker: the remaining, mold-infested cheese was then used to top pizzas that were served to unsuspecting customers. This is an absolute violation of food safety and health standards. If you value your well-being, stay far, far away from this place. To top it all off, the pizza is overpriced for the subpar quality. You're better off spending your money elsewhere. Not even employees get discounts on the overpriced food.

We went to Ferentino's as a part of our John Hughes Chicago tour (it was listed as one of his favorite pizza places) and it did not disappoint!!! Excellent food (Best Chicago style pizza I've had), the staff was really friendly and excited to hear about our meeting "The Breakfast Club" cast the day before at C2E2. The owner even came out and told us a few stories about filming locations and was very kind to us about our obsession :) Thank you to everyone at Ferentino's , we made all 18 tour stops and your place was one of our favorites!!!

I have been going there about twice a month for the last six months because it's close to work. Pizza is good burgers are over priced. Tonight I went in and as usual I showed my Military ID while I was ordering. The young lady told me she didn't think they gave a military discount. I explained that it wasn't a big deal, but I had received one every time before. A young man said he would go check with the mngr. I could hear from at least 30 feet away through the kitchen the manager yelling and swearing at the kid for "asking such a stupid question." I could see the whole exchange. I was told by the kid that he just got yelled at and he couldn't give a discount. I thought people would like to know how their kids are being treated there. I will not be going back. The food is over priced and the mngr is rude and obnoxious to his employees. I felt bad that the kid got in trouble for asking a...

Oh man. First time ordering take out the other day for lunch - amazing. This is up there with Barnaby's and Silo in my opinion. We got two pizzas - the Roma Mediterranean and the Chicago Thin. Both were fantastic but my favorite was the Med. the texture of the pizza was super fluffy and the garlic flavor was forward which I was a big fan of. Chicago thin was really delicious too, my only gripe would be that the giardinara kind of over powered the beef which I really wish I could taste more of as I think it should be the main ingredient of the 'za. I do prefer Barbary's cornmeal crust over Ferentino's, but Ferentino's is a nice change of pace from the usual suspects. We'll definitely be back to try the other pizzas,...
