As a transplant from Chicago, one of the most difficult adjustments to Madison life has been the lack of quality pizza. It boggles my mind that we are in such a vast wasteland when it comes to pizza! And to find a dine in pizza place with decent offering is even more difficult. I grew up on thin crust Chicago style. Rosati ' s has the best I've come across in my search for a taste of home. They use cheese that tastes like cheese., and Chicago style Italian sausage. I do recommend ordering the thin "double crust" as the standard is too thin and cracker - like.
Atmosphere is okay. I wish I didn't have to listen to continuous Frank Sinatra every time for the entire duration of the meal.
Customer service was minimal. I'm not one to expect the server to carry on long conversation. But when they ask how we're enjoying the meal, it would be nice if they, at least, pretended as if they were listening /cared.
Value is about what I expect for a dine in pizza. Sixteen inch double crust sausage and bacon (we always get more than necessary to have leftovers.) Was about $21.
Definitely a favorite when our stomachs are missing home. (I would give 3.5 stars of Yelp allowed.)
