Cafe L'Appetito,

5500 South Cicero Avenue Chicago Midway International Airport, Chicago, IL 60638

"Horrible place. The only reason any of the restaurants in Chi MDW stay open is the whole airport sucks and hasnt changed or offered any legitimate food options in 20 years. So when you are here, you have no choice then to eat at one of these disgusting establishments and pay a fortune at the same time. There is literally no good places in this entire airport for food options - not sure why any of the big food chains arent available here? And no, DD’s is not a food restaurant. All the restaurants are bizarre places Ive never seen anywhere else (like - not outside of this airport, forget about other flying locations…..)"

"The sausage pizza (Home Run Pizza) was very good, it was fresh, well cooked and delicious. I appreciated that it had a generous amount of cheese on it. It was expensive for a personal sized pizza but I guess that's to be expected inside of an airport. It's thin crust pizza so don't be expecting Chicago Deep Dish or pan pizza! They ran out of Coors Light so I got a Bud Light instead, also expensive. $12.99 for the pizza, $10.29 for the beer. If you have a long evening layover don't wait to get food. They were running out of things at 7:00 pm, and the bar next door already had a "no food" sign posted."

"So slow. The food is already prepared, what takes so long? I think we've been in line 15 minutes, and there's only been 4 families helped in front of us. The pizza is cheese on cardboard. Ugh."

"For an airport food location, Cafe L’Appetito has oddly strict food hours. I came at 10:55 and asked for a meatball sub, and they said sorry you’ll have to come back in 5 minutes to order it. When I did come back, I was thoroughly disappointed with my order. Instead of putting marinara sauce onto my sub, it felt like they just dunked each meatball into the sauce and dropped in onto my sub. Instead of a meatball sub, it was meatballs dragged off of somebody’s spaghetti and put on bread."

"This wasn't too bad for a airport sandwich place especially since they replaced Potbelly's with a Home Run Inn Pizza. I had a breakfast sandwich which was of course overpriced, but you don't have much of a choice when at an airport. The sandwich was freshly made with a good bagel. The staff was friendly and the place looked well organized."
