Alfano's Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant - Oregon, Illinois

Best pizza around and will always be legendary as I’ve ate it since I was a child in Geneva since 78 when I was born. My mom went into labor in 78 was eating Alfanos deep dish. She thought she had indigestion from the pizza. But it was just me wanting out. I really just wanted to get out and eat that pizza myself instead of having my mom feed me. Pete has got the best pizza around. I’ll be back from Arizona for first time to Chicago area in 8 yrs soon. First place I’m going is to see Chief Blackhawk then stop by for an Alfanos pizza. #1 then on to paddle wheel to stay and black hawk steak pit on that Sunday. But few more par baked pizzas to hit the road to go for frozen pizza back down in scottsdale Arizona.

A rare 5 star. The service is amazing, but more so is the food. An unexpected gem in the middle of nomansland, Oregon Illinois. Now... for a quick drive out, this hidden gem is in the heart of downtown Oregon, right on Highway 2. Set off on its own, I never would have come but my kid has been here before. The prices haven't been hit by the current economy. Portions are fresh and huge. Be prepared for leftovers unless you are a big eater. The servers are friendly and really attentive. The food fresh, delicious, and prepared to perfection. Seriously I'm a bit stunned and grateful for this find. Oh, and the Chianti... smooth. Again a shock.

The deep dish pizza is not at all deep dish. Beware before ordering.

I just want to give a shout out to Alfano’s in Oregon. It was just my boys and I tonight and I was trying to make something simple and cute that followed the “pizza of my heart” valentines theme. After attempting to make our own pizzas and my boys voicing that they were not interested in making or eating homemade pizza I turned to our go to favorite. We live out in lost nation and I know it’s a haul sometimes and with tonight’s weather I felt horrible after placing my order and seeing the weather getting progressively worse. All I could do is pray at this point that our driver makes it safely. I was so relieved when I saw him pull into the driveway.

Some people really don’t take for granted the delivery drivers who are usually the ones to make it through any weather. To the delivery driver tonight. I don’t know you but I hope you make it back okay and thank you again for our life saving dinner.

I took my 9 yr old neice who has high anxiety here for an early pizza dinner. The waitress was so helpful and friendly. After we left she said she LOVED it there and when could we go back. Thank you!!

Alfano's, a wonderful family owned restaurant and a staple to the Oregon community. The staff is always super friendly and the pizza is fantastic. The only real issue that I have, would be the wings.. Start serving those Father & Son type wings and boom, 5 stars for sure!

I went here for a late dinner. It wasn't crowded. The pizza was excellent.
The crust was cooked just right. There were just the right amount of toppings.
The sausage had amazing flavor. I also enjoyed the sauce, it had just the right amount of sweetness.
Forgive me I didn't get her name, but she was running the dining room like a champ.
The dining room was that home town feel in a good way. Everything was clean and in good condition. They take care of the restaurant.
I will continue to go here when I'm in the area.
Bicycling: The roads near here would be fine for riding. I didn't notice any area to lock the bicycles up. Also, it would have been nice if they had outdoor seating.

Their thin crust Alfano's special is perfect. Fast & friendly wait staff. It's great that they hire so many teenagers that seem happy to be working there!! So many places don't hire teens these days.
