      Really cool spot with a rooftop! It was fun to come here on a week night to see some live music and eat some pizza! The atmosphere was so lax and the staff was friendly!

      Went here because my daughter had an event there for school, so I went in without any expectations. It's a small old school place. Nothing fancy, but my review is based on this experience which is probably not the same as a regular dining experience. There were a lot crammed in the area we had reserved, way too many for the space. We didn't have a place to eat and many did not. It was set up as a buffet, so we ate what was a part of that l. The food that I got was pretty good, the thin crust pizza was tasty and the salad and cheese sticks were standard, but most time I went t up things were cold or empty. Now again I get that this is different than normal, but it does make my experience what it was. I would be willing to try it in a different circumstance, but honestly probably won't. Too many other good spots around.

      Hello interested people looking at this restaurant. There is something not right about an establishment that has all 1 and 5 star reviews! Please take note...paid reviews are here boosting the score.
      I was skeptical, but took the chance. I will never be back. Here is why - the food is terrible. Point blank period. The pizza tasted like stale matzah with tomato paste. I think that is their family recipe.
      Two stars because I liked the ambience. The food gets a zero.

      The kind of place that gives "Chicago style thin" a bad name. The crust was a complete cracker and it was dusted with so much flour on the near 2 inch wide sauce-less edges. It was almost completely flavorless except for the Sausage which was decent. Unfortunately this is not your pizza spot in Lincoln Square, search elsewhere.

      We love eating at Borellis Pizza because their secret ingredient is love. We also like to observe the tall, young, and limber chef in the demon apron masterfully craft delicious love-filled pizza pies.

      We went here for a Major Keys Music Studio event and stayed after for dinner. The staff was very courteous in the midst of switching from an event to usual dining. The pizza, spaghetti, Mac and cheese and cannolis were all delicious! They even had the seating to accommodate our large group of 10.5 people no problem. I would definitely recommend checking them out if you're in the area.

      Fun, casual restaurant with live music. I really enjoyed the cracker thin, crispy pizza crust . We ordered the 3 ingredient medium sized pizza which was much larger than expected. Easy street parking for a Friday night. Will return!

      When I was a child my dad would buy me a John's frozen pizza. It was tasteless but as a kid I ate it. John's
      Pizza is alive and well at Borelli. Shame on you for serving such garbage in a town known for great pizza!
