We found this little spot on our GPS as we were heading into Illinois, and it didn’t disappoint!! They make their crust, which was a perfect combine of soft and crunchy. The flavors were spot on! The staff has been there for years and are very friendly. The owner was there and we chatted with him for a bit. By the time we left, we almost felt like family! Note: We were traveling in a motorhome, pulling a toad. There’s a huge parking lot next door they said it was ok to park in (there were no parking signs posted) so pulling into it, we were able to pull straight out to the road behind to get back on the freeway. There’s also enough room to turn around if you’re this big! Will def stop when we head back south!! Thanks for the hospitality!

Best pizza spot in the area. We drive from over hour and a half away to go here, that is how great it is. Family own and operated with local work as well, amazing pizza/salads/cheesebread.. Have yet to eat something from here that I wasnt impressed with. I often bring friends from out of state here, and they all agree it is the best. Have been going here for over 10 years, at least once a few times a year when near the area. LOVE IT!

You order at the window inside rather than at your booth. Prices are good, cheesesticks are kind of plain-just toasted French bread with mozzarella on top. Pizza was tasty and more on the thin crust side rather than hand tossed. Could order a deep dish as well if you like your crust thicker. Drink selection could be better-no diet options.

Years of getting pizza here growing up and as an adult! I haven’t had Gillio’s in 8 years and as always they didn’t disappoint! Unfortunately I forgot to get pics of our food

I hadn’t been to Gillios in over 20 years…last time I was there it was still the old building. I was a regular customer back in the day! Stopped there on the way back from Smokin Joes Fireworks, and its STILL the BEST pizza in Southern Illinois! The new place is really nice! The service is great. The food is great. The price is cheaper than any place around! Katie and her parents are such nice people and have a wonderful establishment. After having some Gillio’s Pizza for the first time in a long time, we will be going there from here on out! It’s SO GOOD!

I called to place an order without the benefit of a menu in hand as I was driving. The lady who answered the phone was so nice & patient with me, telling me about their items and made it so easy to decide what sounded good. I placed my order and was told it would be approximately 25 minutes.
My food was ready on time and was delicious.
They typically cut their pizza in squares, but I asked for a pepperoni pizza to be sliced like a pie. Great pizza, cut the way I requested (by her, personally), and the crust has a great taste, too.
I ordered a large salad with their house-made balsamic vinaigrette. It was fresh and delicious.
Ordered a hamburger with everything and it was great! “Run it through the garden,” like my dad used to say. The burger was nicely seasoned and meaty. Tasted great!
Highly recommend!

We ordered 2 pizzas and they were decent they came out about 10 minutes apart. Mine was almost cold when his came out. The gluten free pizza had a bit to much sauce on it then Italian beef had a bit to much ranch

A group of 12 was visiting the area. This appears to be the only place around open to get lunch. Surprised how excellent the food was & How fast the service was. Everyone ordered different items and commented on how good everything was from the pizzas hamburgers, calzones, the italian roast beef sandwich was huge.
I noticed a sign saying they were established in 1988. I am guessing this is a new building because EVERYTHING was so nice looking inside and out. Thanks Gillio.
