Great pizza every time, the sides and sandwiches are also worth trying. I'd highly recommend the cheese curds. They've also managed to make indoor/outdoor seating work pretty well during COVID. I've never had any issues with my order or long waits when ordering take-out either.

A delivery staple for us since we can always find something on the menu to satisfy the whole family. Huge patio, big beer list and great to go packaging for delivery and leftovers. Like the braided crust on the pizza, lots of wraps and salad choices.

Excellent beer selection with a wonderful outdoor patio for summer dining on a relatively quiet street. Pizza is great as well as their burgers. They also have a great craft beer selection available.

Went there to watch a football game. Atmosphere was cool and the patio was gigantic and looked awesome. Got the pepperoni pizza which was awesome and the wings were good too. Kudos for a legit blue cheese sauce! Beer selection was ok not great for craft beer, but no big deal. Service was not very good. I went there on today and the blonde bartender was completely dismissive and very obviously didnt want to be there. I sat there several times after my drink was cleared with no offer for another. She wasnt busy and seemed annoyed by having to do anything. I've been in the industry for many years and I noticed that she was annoyed to have to work that day.
We kept having to flag her down for almost anything and had to ask for the check twice while she was standing around. There was a guy that was behind the bar about 20% of the time we were there and he did a lot more for us than she did. I'd love to go back, but if I saw her behind the bar again, I'd rather get a table.

New to the area and wanted to try a local place. I understand the pizzas are made fresh so they take awhile. So you would think staff would check on you regularly to see if you need anything during your 45 minute wait. The seating was great, outside on a very pleasant day in a beautiful neighborhood.

Ready to settle in for a leisurely lunch with one of my grown children, her boyfriend and my girlfriend. Had to track down the waitress for everything we needed. Not very impressed with her. When the food came it was wrong. The manager was quick to right the wrong but because of scheduling conflicts we had to order something different. Food was delicious! Drinks where great as well. Manger handled everything with a great personality. Waitress not impressed.

Ordered two huge pizzas for take out. Pizzas were pretty decent. Prosciutto and arugula is my favourite. Unfortunately the other pizza we received was not what we ordered. But we still ate it and it was tasty!

My friends & I were doing some impromptu day drinking when we stumbled upon this spot. It was a Sunday afternoon but pretty packed & lit. Menu had good standard offerings - we opted for garlic knots, tator tots, and the Mega Mule. Food was tasty - will have to come back to try the pizza! Mega mule came pre-mixed so it was meh taste-wise, but great for a good buzz lol.

It s a solid alumni bar

The patio hasn t opened yet but I imagine that would also be super fun once it warms up a bit more.

This place was great. We had a party of 7, sat on the patio and had a really nice time. Food is priced well and there are options for everyone (burgers, pizza, wraps, salads, pasta). Drinks were pretty good too. I got a whole order of spaghetti, was mega hungry and couldn't come close to finishing it. 1/2 order might be better if you're not sharing!

They saved my weekend. Every other place was messed up because of the marathon but they were open and ready. As a Wisconsin native they helped us get food before the long drive home. Also. GO BADGERS!

I'd give it zero stars if it was possible. I have lived in Chicago for over 20 years and this was the first time I tried their pizza. I ordered a stuffed cheese for pick up and the crust was truly like chewy cardboard. The sauce reminded me of cheap tomato soup. With so many great alternatives in the neighborhoood, you would have to be desperate to eat here.

Went a few years ago, food was great, had a good time. Hours say they close at 2am Fridays, showed up at 12:30, doors locked, 1 table finishing up, barman and waitress avoid eye contact.
I'm fine that you closed early, but not popping to the door and telling me was uncool.

I see your response below. If your kitchen closes at 11pm, oh wow, your hours posted still say 2AM and I was there at a locked door at 12:30, so what's that about.
I won't be back, rest assured.

Second time going here and my fiance and I love the place. It is a sports bar that doesn't feel to sporty, but there pizza is definitely worth stopping in for. Their crust is somewhere between a thin crust and hand tossed. Slightly burnt and delicious.

Great location in Lincoln Park. The outside seating was very nice, wait staff attentive and friendly. The food was pretty good. I tried the Korean tacos; on the expensive side thought, two tacos were $12... Ouch $6 per taco... And they're pretty little tacos.

Vastly improved bar and menu w Four Corners buying out the old owners. The staff is much friendlier, the prices very reasonable and the food is great. The upgrade puts Ranalli's well ahead of meathead Lincoln Park bar scene.

I go to Ranallis every Thursday after intramurals. Their food is some of my favorite bar food in the city. I love the neighborhood vibe. If you like the Bachelor, you should definitely check out the viewing parties.

Ranalli's is so great! I went for dinner and drinks on a Saturday evening. The place is huge! Its size allows it to be essentially two different establishments in one. Walking in the front door, you're met by a fun, energetic, upscale sports bar atmosphere, but the long building layout appeared to allow for a quieter experience in the back section located closer to the lake. Running the entire length of the building, they have one of the biggest outdoor patios I've seen in the city. I can wait until the weather warms, so I can go back and relax on their patio. The menu was very diverse with a ton of options. Sometimes I feel the term "bar food" reads as less than a compliment, but I will run the risk of saying that their "bar food" offerings were hands-down the best I've had in the city. Our party of four ordered 5 different items from the appetizer section of the menu and everything we had was top-notch! The Buffalo Chicken Egg-rolls make my mouth water just thinking about them and the chicken wings were absolutely perfect. The server even offered the option of having the wings done "naked" with the sauces on the side, allowing everyone in our party to enjoy them. The have a great cocktail menu and more than 10 craft beers on draft. Lastly, It was packed when we went and the service was above and beyond! Our server was so attentive, in an almost standing room only crowd, that there was never a moment where we were in need of anything. I am so impressed with Ranalli's! I will be back many times!

If you're looking for a place to watch a game or just meet up with friends, this is the place! There's so much room and lots of bar space! Don't let the outside fool you, this place is a lot bigger than it looks from the front.

In a world of countless pizza and beer joints, Ranalli s stands head and shoulders above the rest, because of exactly that, it s thin crust ranalli s special and generous beer selection. Yes it s pricey but four corners has a good environment here.

Okay. I have to be honest. I didn't know what to make of this eatery when I walked in with my wife a couple days ago. We chose a very busy night, as there were not a lot of seats and when we told the staff we were new, they told us exactly what to do: pretty much, find a seat.
Now, did we find a table? No. We had to chill at the bar, which wasn't so bad. Was it quiet and cozy? Not during the sports games. But man oh man, you guys gotta try their burgers. Like, I got used to being spoiled on Twisted Burger out by me, but Ranalli's has some of the best burgers I've had in my life. Even better than Twisted, in my opinion.
Needless to say, we very much enjoyed our meals (we were famished when we got there from where I live). We would certainly go alot more, but I live 48 miles out lol. Not worth it for a burger, but worth every penny if you happen to live closer :) Plus, we ate for under $75. Hard to do when you're out in the city.

Love this place. It is exactly what I expected. A bustling, energetic, pizza bar. The menu is limited but everything is executed well. The garlic knots, wings, chicken fingers, and BBQ pizza are my favorites. I'm impressed with how the kitchen and staff handle the large crowd.

Didn't know about this place until my soccer co-coach told me about it as he works there. Next time you stop by, say high to John L at the bar! Good food and a ton of variety. A very large patio and friendly staff.

Arrived a little after 10 pm on a Saturday and they weren't accepting anymore folks for outdoor seating. So we were sat inside right next to the open window/door thing which was fine. Waitress was great. As were the meatballs!

The only reason this place has such a high review is because it caters to what has to be a local enclave of Wisconsin expats who are really into college football. The pizza is incredibly generic and typical, service is lacking, and drinks are overpriced. But hey I guess if you're the sort of person who has weaved in the fact that you're from Wisconsin and want strangers to care about it, boy howdy these folks will certainly gouge you!

The friendliest service we have had. Bryan was fantastic. The food...the pretzel, cheese curds, chicken tenders, and the chicken parmesan sandwich were beyond amazing. This place is truly a gem.

Rinallis is a very good spot for sports and overall entertainment. They have awesome staff and the food, even though general pizza/sandwiches found in most Chicago bars (hence the 4 stars), is pretty solid. It get very busy all the time so if you re looking for a place to watch a game, make sure you re early. The patio is great as well when the weather is nice.
