We started with the meatball appitizer. The meatball had a softer texture than I expected. The sauce, bread slices, and meatball were delicious.

We all agreed the pizza here was amazing! All pizza were hand stretched 12" pizzas.

The crust was airy and had a great flavor.

The combo pizzas pepperoni was slightly crispy and a great flavor. The chunk sausage had a good size and great flavor. Tony Varella says the pizza paired well with a PBR!

The steakhouse pizza was good. Alex Varella says that pizza was slightly better than the combo. The steak was slightly tough because it was a skirt steak. (I believe) The flavor of the steak was neutral to me. We asked for medium but it was more well done than medium. Overall it was really good.

The artichoke and gorganzola was a punch in the mouth! We didn't know what gorganzola was so I'm not gonna bash the pizza for our ignorance. I was the only one who liked it. The strength of the cheese was VERY strong. Think blue cheese crumble and lemon juice with minced garlic. The artichoke pieces were great. Its not a pizza you can eat a lot of. It's powerful Taste was a lot to handle.

Dessert was burbon bread pudding, Crem Brule, and zeppole (itialan donut holes)

Alex and I each split a Brule and Bread pudding. They were both fantastic. I wish the bread pudding had a touch more burbon sauce and flavor but it was still great.

Brule was great. Sugar was crisp and not over cooked. Cream was slightly firm and great taste.

Tony had the bread pudding and liked it.

Amy Warne my had the donuts drizzled with cream and chocolate sauce.. They were good. Some were soft and some had quite a crunch. She dipped them in whipped cream.

I forgot our servers name but she didn't miss a thing. Never without a drink or item. She was great!

Over all the bill was $104 not counting tip. With all the appetizers, pizzas, and desserts, and tip...

During a road trip to Chicago, my stomach growled its protest, demanding sustenance. Spotting Woodfire Rockford, a small pizzeria in Rockford, Illinois, I decided to heed its call. The exterior of the building was unassuming, but upon stepping inside, I was greeted by a surprisingly cool ambiance.

The wood-fired pizza served at Woodfire Rockford was a delightful surprise. Each bite was a burst of flavor, with perfectly crispy crust and toppings that danced harmoniously on my taste buds. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall pleasant experience.

The atmosphere inside the restaurant was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect pit stop for a snack or meal. Little did I know, however, that my visit would take an unexpected turn.

As I made my way to the restroom, I stumbled upon a scene straight out of a movie. A woman was furiously punching the mirror, her screams echoing off the walls. My heart raced as I watched, unsure of what to do. Miraculously, the mirror remained intact, but the woman's erratic behavior left me shaken.

Rushing to inform an employee, I was relieved when they promptly intervened and diffused the situation. It turned out that the woman was struggling with mental health issues, and the staff handled the situation with professionalism and compassion.

Despite this unsettling encounter, I was impressed by the cleanliness of the restaurant and the quality of the wood-fired pizza. Woodfire Rockford may have its share of surprises, but it remains a hidden gem in Rockford, Illinois, offering delicious food and a welcoming atmosphere to...

My family enjoyed a delicious meal at Woodfire including a Margherita Pizza, Cavatelli Pasta, Fettucini and a Sausage w/ Rapini and Ricotta Pizza on recent family outing. First of all, the dining room was clean and efficient, clear views across the entire room including a view of the bar as well as an awesome view of the brick oven. Second, our server, Michael, was very intuitive and answered unasked questions to help us make portion decisions prior to ordering. He also was extremely descriptive with menu queries that I had, helping me decide on the perfect pizza. Next, as I mentioned, I had a 'Perfect' pizza with fresh ingredients and a superb crust. My wife's pizza was just as delicious and, as for the pasta, it was obvious that it was freshly made and served with a creamy white sauce that melted in the mouth. Finally, my family shared a creme brulee that could not have been any better. The portion size was perfect for everyone to have a nice taste without feeling any regret. (Desserts can do that). I would recommend Woodfire Brick Oven Pizza to anyone that enjoys pizza, especially of the gourmet variety. I...
