If you’re looking for a unique and flavorful pizza experience, this place absolutely delivers. Every bite is bursting with rich, well-balanced flavors — you can truly taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients. What makes it even better is that everything here is 100% Halal, so you can enjoy guilt-free indulgence without compromising on taste or values.

Their crust is the perfect mix of crispy and chewy, the toppings are generous, and the sauces are unlike anything you’ll find at a regular pizza spot Whether you go for a classic or one of their signature fusion flavors, you’ll find something memorable.

I went to this place under the original owner as a kid. I figured I would give it a visit 20 something years later. The food quality is microwave food quality for the price of good restaurant food. 7 dollars for gyros pizza bread, ended up being gyro pieces on a slice of Italian/french bread with cold mozzarella microwaved on top (something a kid would make at home when desperate). 7 dollars for some mozzarella sticks with cold cheese inside also likely microwaved with a side of what looks to be tostitos salsa (years ago these were freshly fried and with a side of some good marinara sauce). Even the gyro it self not seasoned. Overall just lower than even run of the mill McDonald’s or burger king quality and asking for restaurant level money, not what it use to be for the cost 20 yrs ago. Also I ordered in to eat in and the one guy at the front stares at me to come get the food tray at the front desk??? Why did is their app asking for tip for service when there is no service. I wonder. I forsee a change in owner again likely for the 3rd time if they don’t clean up the mediocre food and service. Also the owners better not reply to this negative review with some automated response and excuse, no one cares. These over priced restaurants run with mediocrity in the name of being “halal” and try to swindle good Muslims are they not afraid of judgement?

Honest Impressions
Italian Express has been part of the Glendale Heights food scene for years, and a lot of locals will tell you it’s old school in the best way possible — solid, comforting Italian-American fare with generous portions and familiar flavors. Their pizzas, gyros, sandwiches, and classics like chicken parm or pasta are reliably good, and that’s exactly why so many people keep ordering from them year after year.

The food really is the star here — when you order in, it hits the spot more often than not, and many regulars swear by favorites like the gyro cheeseburger and pizza.

That said, there’s a major sticking point that keeps this from being a great overall experience: the interior. Even though the dining area is fairly spacious, the atmosphere feels dated and uninviting — it’s one of those places that most people simply do takeout from because the vibe inside doesn’t make you want to linger. If you’re gonna have size on your side, a refresh in décor, lighting, or seating would make it so much more of a place to actually enjoy a meal in-house.

If Italian Express updated the interior to match how good the food can be, this would easily be not just a neighborhood classic but a place you’d choose to dine in again and again.

Overall: Great food that keeps people coming back — but PLEASE, update that dining space so people don’t feel like they must grab takeout every time.

I’m traveling from outside of state and just wanted comfort food during this pouring rain . Alhamdulillah, food tastes so fresh and clean and I love knowing it’s all zabiha without me needing to ask. Portiond are good and owners are kind to throw a full 1 L Pepsi and a massive tzatziki sauce with it . Since starting this review, I’m already halfway through this appetizer, masha’Allah.

PS: after the zabiha, I love knowing nasheeds are in the background. May Allah SWT bless this business and all those trying to sustain zabiha offerings.

Old but gold, honestly better than many of the new halal joints out there. The pizza was fresh, with generous meat toppings, and full of flavor. Really hoping the same quality is maintained across your other branches too. Definitely order again.

Their pizza was great. The crust had a good crunch, the sauce tasted fresh, and the cheese melted nicely without being too heavy. The toppings were generous and cooked well. Overall, it was satisfying and worth ordering again.

Gyros are really good, whether on pita or pizza you can’t go wrong. Wings are great too. The new little bakery they opened is really solid too, everything is homemade! I haven’t had a bad experience with any of their baked goods. Highly recommend

“Hands down, the best pizza joint in town! I stumbled upon this hidden gem while driving and I’ve been hooked ever since. The crust is crispy, the sauce is tangy, and the cheese is meltdown perfection. I got the works, and it was a flavor explosion! Service was top-notch, too. If you’re a pizza lover, Raza’s stamp of approval means it’s worth the drive. Five stars, no question!”

I’m not really one to write reviews, but the service, food, and overall restaurant is outstanding here! I had my graduation party there with about 80 guests and the food accommodations were phenomenal and they catered dessert from their bakery that is coming soon, Ghosted Penguin. They made the prettiest and most delicious cakes! They even set up decor for us and had the sound system playing with our playlist for us. Our guests enjoyed an all you can eat Mexican themed menu with fresh guacamole and a hot nacho cheese dispenser! It was truly an amazing experience!
