Anthony's Pizzeria — Restaurant in Orland Township

My 87 year old mother is a very picky eater these days and pretty much criticizes most of the food she eats. Recently she wanted to try a pizza & beef from Anthony’s but requested the pizza be “light” & not dark as she absolutely hates anything over cooked or dark. I personally like a darker pizza but I am not picky. I relayed this request to the owner who took my order over the phone. Super nice man. When I got there for pickup he showed me a photo of the pizza and it was exactly how my mother likes it. My mother was super pleased with the pizza and as far as the beef sandwich goes, it was among the best I’ve ever had! We requested sweet peppers on it. The beef is Halal and top quality. No cutting corners. What I was really impressed with was the bun was packed with beef. No “bread sandwich” as my mother would say to a sandwich missing meat or as Clara Peller used to say, “where’s the beef?” Well you can’t say that about Anthony’s. The beef sandwich was packed, juicy, didn’t fall apart and there was a generous amount of sweet peppers on it. It was absolutely delicious! So many places today skimp on quality or quantity and because prices are so high everywhere, one strike and you’re out in my book. My mother & I were impressed with the beef & pizza and that’s especially high praise coming from her. The owner is a super nice guy who caters to the customer, he absolutely knows his business. As Arnold Schwarzenegger said,...

I just checked into a hotel about 4 minutes from your location. The menu you printed and sent to businesses in your area states,

EVERYDAY SPECIAL: LASAGNA $8.99 Garlic bread, small salad.

Yet when I arrived and placed my order, the guy behind the counter, who seemed to not even know where he currently was, said oh, that's only on Sunday. Yet your own menu states EVERYDAY SPECIAL.

The ignorance that was shown by your employee and the outright refusal to accept your own menu and specials that YOU sent out it appalling.

First and last time I'll ever attempt to get food from here. Ignorant employees and clearly unintelligent managers who can't own up to their own mistakes. Find anywhere else to eat in Orland Park but here.

If you send out a menu with specials on it you have to honor it otherwise you shouldn't even be in business.

Came in at 4pm on Thursday, June 13th. Whoever your employee was running the cash register in your lobby should find anywhere else to work besides having interaction with human beings. He was clearly either high or had some other issue to where it seemed like he wasn't even aware of...

So I’m giving this place a 2 because I called and placed an order ahead of time for dine-in so the wait would be a little less. Well she said that was fine and great but then I get there and realize it’s not really a place suited for dine in. I wasn’t able to look at photos ahead of time since I was driving and just asked Siri to find me a pizza place nearby so that’s why I called. Well I order breadsticks thinking they’ll be out before the pizza since there’s was still a wait of roughly 20-25 minutes. We get the pizza and these really cheap plastic plates. That was all. No napkins, utensils, nothing. So I asked for utensils or just something to serve the pizza since it was fresh, the cheese was just slipping off. She said they didn’t have any. She searches again and finds just 1 prepackaged eating utensils set. Me and brother then cut and serve ourselves with the 1 set. The food wasn’t bad, but I wish I could of gone somewhere else with proper plates and serving for dine in. I just think you should be more clear next time that you don’t do dine in just pickup...
