    Pizzas are fantastic but side salads are just plain. Nice wattresses. Nice atmosphere too.

    Our family of 10 throughly enjoyed our visit to Mr. Gilberti’s Speciality Pizza. The food was so delicious & flavorful. The service was super we would definitely visit again. This was our family Christmas vacation & the variety of cuisines in the Branson area is just great!

    Awesome Chicage pizza! Notice I did not say "style" it's not. He was from Chicago and being from there myself, he's authentic!

    Excellent food and service. They were prepared for our group. Only complaint was the waitress did not wear a mask but we certainly did.

    We have eaten here many times and the food was superb. It's not the greatest convience for us as we live an hour+ away. But the food was worth the drive until now. Ownership has changed hands between the time before and the visit I am about to describe. The toasted ravioli was burnt but still edible. Tho the menu states 25 minute wait for their specialty it took over an hour and other tables were served first and left, that came in after us. One of the tables had the same pizza we ordered. After receiving our much awaited chicago style pizza, we were greatly disappointed in the new quality. The crust was so hard that it was nearly impossible to chew. When you attempted to cut it, the crust would pop apart from the force required, and a silverware against plate ring would fill the place. My mother was unable to eat the pizza due to to it being painful for her to try and bite thru the crust. When using a knife she lacked the strength to cut the crust. My mother is in her early 50s and by no means feeble. After much debate we decided to express the issues with respect to them. The waitress Shasta with great attitude looked my mother in the eye and said thats why we give you a knife. Before just walking away saying that's how it is. What used to be a gem is no longer worth the effort to drive there. We don't like food to go to waist so we took what was left and paid our bill. But we will not be returning. Were just good country folk that treat others with respect and it was not returned. Service 1* food 1*.

    The food the service and the atmosphere is awesome! You will not leave disappointed or hungry!

  • 5/5 Jason T. 3 years ago on Google
    Loved the food! The whole family enjoyed the food and atmosphere. The staff did a great job making us feel welcome, almost like they were part of the family cleaning plates and bringing dishes while engaging in a little conversation along the way. The only downfall was the ugly bears lamp😉 unfortunate as that is, take a trip here for a good meal. (I had the thin crust hawaiian style pizza and it was primo)

    Amazing food and the service was excellent. This was our second visit and both times we were well pleased.

  • 5/5 Jen R. 3 years ago on Google
    Very flavorful pizza with lots of toppings you won't be disappointed!

  • 5/5 Coxpartyoffive 3 years ago on Google
    Definitely recommend! We ordered two “Chicago style” pizzas to go while staying in Branson. It was good, not exactly the “Chicago style” we know from Chicago, but still tasty. The Italian burger topping is from their meatballs & was amazing! Will definitely go back next time we’re in town & hope to dine in if COVID has calmed down. Want to try the pizza with their homemade Italian sausage next time!

  • 3/5 Frankz J. 3 years ago on Google
    Great environment but the food was blah.... not Chicago pizza 🍕

  • 5/5 Vickie B. 3 years ago on Google
    Very good food. Service was excellent as well. Will go back when in Branson area.

    Great pizza, great atmosphere

  • 5/5 Katrina A. 8 months ago on Google
    Oh my gosh.. this place is amazing, top notch service! The food is mouthwatering and so flavorful! We will be back for sure! Get the portobello fries- fried to perfection taste good in both ranch and marinara. Our waitress Karen was this best, fun personality, fulfilled all our needs!

  • 5/5 ken p. 7 months ago on Google
    Seriously, the best Chicago pizza I have ever eaten (including Chicago). We shared the half-and-half 10” pizza (4 deep dish slices), which was enough for two moderately hungry adults. I love how the bottom of the pizza is light and crispy, like a thin crust, and then you sink your teeth into the perfectly baked deep dish dough paradise. Sauce like this does not come from cans, and is remarkable in both quantity (just right) and flavor (neither tomato paste, nor spaghetti sauce). And the toppings, oh the toppings. My half was meat: big bite sized pieces of Italian sausage, ham, bacon - just perfection. Service was outstanding - the servers don black suits with red ties, completing the classy, hometown Chi-talian atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Nathalia G. 7 months ago on Google
    We had the Mr Gilberti’s Specialty pizza and it surpassed our expectations! So much flavor yet none of them were overpowering. Love the atmosphere! We enjoyed the family owned and ran service; it’s real, original and excellent!

  • 5/5 LoriLeigh M. 5 months ago on Google
    This is our favorite local restaurant! We have been coming here for 2 years, and Mr Gilberti's never disappoints! The owners are incredibly hands-on, and it shows in a staff that is virtually unchanged in 2 years. Therefore everything about the restaurant is consistent, homie, welcoming and enjoyable. Not to mention how great their chicago-style pizza is! (And I am originally from Chicago). Love you guys! And don't ever change!

  • 5/5 The Boss B. 8 months ago on Google
    This authentic Italian restaurant in Branson is a true gem. Their deep-dish pizza with a crispy crust is a must-try, and the garlic bread, chicken fettuccine Alfredo, and eggplant Parmesan are equally delicious. It's a perfect spot for a special occasion like an anniversary. I highly recommend a visit to this iconic Branson eatery.

  • 5/5 Anna G. 7 months ago on Google
    I'm from Chicago and all I can say is wow, wow, wow! Who needs to drive eight hours home for a pie when I can drive an hour to Mr. Gilberti's for an amazing pie. Service was amazing! The food was authentic and delicious. And I mean, who doesn't want to hang in out in that Authentic Chicago "Mobster" style atmosphere. Additionally, Mr. Gilberti's has amazing food that isn't priced at Chicago prices!!! Now, that's what I call winning Mr. Gilberti has truly outdone himself.

  • 5/5 Lena S. 1 year ago on Google
    OH MY WORD!!! This was the best Chicago-style pizza I think I have ever had. We had the Italian meat-lovers. We purchased a large so we had leftovers for lunch the following day (there were 2 adults and one child in our party). Dessert was amazing. We had the chocolate dessert, and it was absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend, especially for a date night, etc.

  • 5/5 Johnn H. 3 years ago on Google
    The best Italian food anywhere. Great owners and waitresses too.

  • 5/5 Mike S. 3 years ago on Google
    Very good Pizza! The Deep Dish doesn't match Chicago style deep dish. Definitely a good substitute for the Original that can help with the deep dish craving but you're still going to want to go to Chicago if you're looking for that signature Gino's East flavor. The Thin Crust was pretty good as well.

  • 3/5 Kris H. 3 years ago on Google
    They are so nice. I just wish the Chicago style pizza was as good. It was a disapointment. Mr G's is more authentic flavor and style wise. I lived in Chicago for a long time and had Geno's East or Giordano's weekly. Crust and sauce are a miss. But people are so nice and atmosphere is cool. I will give this another try.

  • 5/5 thomas e. 3 years ago on Google
    This is the restaurant to go for great Italian food. The pizza is awesome. Great home made food

  • 5/5 Lisa R. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing food and service. There was a little bit of a wait, but we were told upfront. Parking is minimal and the drive there made us think we took a wrong turn, but this place is in a residential area. Andy Williams Salad is HUGE! Regulars there encouraged us to get the Authentic Chicago Style Pan and it was deeply delicious. Don't want pizza? There are many other Italian choices to be had for your picky eaters!

  • 4/5 Natalie F. 3 years ago on Google
    Now I have to tell you I'm from the lou and I'm Italian. We have ordered pretty much everything on the menu because well...they are the only Italian restaurant close to us in Ridgedale. I would say everything is on point...but i tend to like a sweeter sauce on my pasta and pizza. The place is small and charming but we don't eat in..just a bit too small for our liking. Overall a good experience!

  • 5/5 keylee b. 3 years ago on Google
    it was such an amazing place! the food was fantastic and the waitresses were so kind. they even helped with boxing our food! if we lived closer, this would be my go-to spot!!

  • 5/5 Craig S. 3 years ago on Google
    Staff was very nice and polite. The cheese bread was amazing! The pizza.... better than the pizza I had in one of the "best" pizzerias in Chicago! It was so delicious! Will definitely be repeat diners!

  • 5/5 Holly L. 3 years ago on Google
    Food was delicious and everyone cleaned their plates. The quality and service made the price worthwhile.

  • 5/5 krista b. 3 years ago on Google
    First time going here and we were pleasantly surprised! I got the chicken alfredo, super creamy and rich. He got a custom pizza, says the ingredients taste fresh and delicious, totally worth the price!! Will definitely visit again!!

    First time there but won't be my last. Great atmosphere ,friendly staff excellent food.

  • 2/5 John V. 3 years ago on Google
    Didn't give 1 star because the staff was really nice when we picked up our pizza and bread. Bread was soggy and not baked, sauce was sub-par, pizza was not good at all for the price point.

  • 5/5 Fred s. 3 years ago on Google
    I have never been disappointed with the food and service great place to eat very good.

  • 5/5 Lacie H. 3 years ago on Google
    This was FANTASTIC! Everything was made from scratch! The service was fantastic! We had the specialty and it was enough for my husband and I to share a small. My son had a mini pepperoni and my daughter had the kids shrimp alfredo. The alfredo has homemade noodles and sauce! Parking is tricky, but it is WORTH searching for a spot!

  • 5/5 Trina C. 3 years ago on Google
