Hinckley is getting a new spot for pizza night. Rosati's Pizza has announced plans to open a location at 126 E. Lincoln Ave. in the small DeKalb County community, adding another pizzeria to a chain that's been dishing out slices across the Chicago area for decades.

The new Hinckley location was first announced online earlier in September, according to WSPYnews.com. No opening date has been announced yet, so residents eager for their first taste will need to keep watching for updates.

The restaurant's social media page for the new location said hiring will begin as the opening date gets closer, per the same report. That leaves the exact timeline still up in the air, but it does signal the business is moving forward with plans to staff up before doors open.

What's on the Menu

Rosati's built its name on pizza, and the chain's official menu backs that up, describing an “Authentic Pizza, Pastas, Salads, Apps & More” lineup. Beyond the pies, the menu also touts what it calls “a comforting lineup of rich, hearty, and perfectly crafted pastas,” alongside wings for those who want something to share on game day.

Rosati's already has a presence in the region, with locations in Sandwich, Ottawa, and Yorkville. The Hinckley spot would extend that footprint further into DeKalb County, giving locals a closer option than driving to neighboring towns for their fix.

What Comes Next

For now, the biggest open question is timing. Neither an opening date nor a hiring start date has been locked in, and the Hinckley community will likely be watching the location's social media for the next update. Until then, the promise of fresh pizza, pasta, and wings closer to home is enough to have residents paying attention.
