What People Are Saying About Rocky's Pizza & Restaurant

In Short – Red- and white-checked tables and floors, framed pictures of grapes and the delicious aroma of baking pizzas make for a come-as-you-are vibe at this casual Westchester hangout. Most people get takeout or delivery, but at dinner, Rocky's nine tables do fill with folks slurping spaghetti in white clam sauce, snacking on ricotta-stuffed manicotti and diving into cheese-topped Italian beef sandwiches. The real draw is bargain-priced pizza (thin-crust or double-dough), with toppings like hamburger, spinach and garlic. Standard beer and wine selections are on hand to wash it all…

Good local pizza
by Chuck from LaGrange Park at Citysearch
It's nice to find a local pizza joint to sink your teeth into! Good calzones too! Family owned. Real sausage, not mystery bits.
- Pros: Good pizza! Great sauce and crust!
- Cons: Not a fancy dine in experience, but it adds to the charm.

They don't take debit card or credit. They do take cash or check.
This establishment is very "little Italy" like with its old fashioned Pizza oven and seating. The atmosphere is very italian--even the guy who answers the phone is named "Tony". Because they are in every sense "old fashioned", you can expect good personalities from Rocky's staff.
The Pizza is good. Good in the sense that there's enough cheese and sauce but not so much that you're soaking up grease with a napkin. The crust is well put together and in my opinion makes for a tasty slice of heaven. Now, you can get better---or worse throughout Chicago. You can pay more too. But for my convenience (based on location) coupled with good wholesome service capped with a product worth writing about makes for a very happy customer. You won't lose your pocket book either. An extra large cheese cost me with tax and delivery roughly 15 bucks.
- Pros: Location (in and around Lagrange Park and Westchester)
- Cons: no debit cards

Worth one visit

The pizza is indeed distinctive, and sausage tastes good on it, but still too much cheese, cheap ingredients, and boring crust make it just a notch above average.
- Pros: something slightly different
- Cons: you can get much better pizza someplace else
