About This Place

DeRango's 'The Pizza King' Restaurant & Sports Bar in Kenosha, WI is a beloved destination for those craving authentic Italian flavors and classic American favorites served with a warm, inviting atmosphere. Specializing in a wide array of pizzas, this restaurant has won local hearts not only for its signature Thin Crust Sausage Mushroom and Onion Pizza but also for its hearty Deep Dish Pizza, Stuffed Pizza, and the indulgent 14 Pepperoni Pizza topped with grilled onions. Whether you prefer the crispy thin crust or the satisfying thickness of a deep dish, each bite bursts with rich, savory layers of freshly sliced Italian sausage, melting cheese, and garden-fresh toppings.

The menu goes far beyond pizza, showcasing Italian staples such as Gnocchi with Meatballs, Lasagna full orders, and Spaghetti with Meatballs and Ground Italian Sausage that faithfully capture the soulful essence of Italy. For those seeking something more American-style, the Black Angus Burger served with golden fries and options like hamburgers with Swiss cheese and grilled veggies offer comforting, juicy alternatives. The appetizers and sides—ranging from the comforting Cheesy Potato Soup and crisp Italian Potatoes to fresh Italian salads—round out a well-crafted dining experience.

Beyond the plate, DeRango's offers a lively yet cozy ambiance that reflects its identity as both a restaurant and a sports bar. Patrons frequently mention the friendly and attentive service, such as Autumn, a server who enhances the dining experience with genuine care and efficiency. The bar area, a perfect spot to unwind with friends, complements the meal with well-mixed cocktails like Long Islands and a selection of beverages including root beer, iced tea, and wines. While the space fills up quickly, especially on weekends, this only adds to the buzz, filled with regulars and newcomers alike sharing stories over slices of pizza and wings.

For families and group gatherings, DeRango's value-packed Family Carry Out Specials deliver convenience alongside flavor. These deals, which combine sheet pizzas with wings (offered in hot, BBQ, or Italian styles), soda, and desserts, are perfect for festive nights at home or parties. Customers consistently commend the freshness and quality of the food, with some returning time and again for the grilled hot dogs and cheeseburgers, proving this place has something to satisfy every craving.

Real customer reviews beautifully echo the quality and atmosphere here. Mike “Log house Mike” P relished their traditional fish fry alongside the pizza, noting the friendly, welcoming crowd of regulars. Diane Wilczenski praised the flavorful thin crust sausage, mushroom, and onion pizza as well as the thick, satisfying cream of lemon and chicken soup, highlighting the generous wine pours and attentive service. Duane C’s comment about the high-quality pizza and authentic bar vibe sums up the experience nicely, while Karim Qedan’s enthusiasm for the broader menu beyond pizza confirms DeRango's versatile appeal. Dean Hervat aptly summarizes it as a place with fabulous, hearty Italian food that prioritizes great portions and reasonable prices over formal dining polish.

In sum, DeRango's 'The Pizza King' is a standout spot for anyone in Kenosha seeking genuine Italian-American cuisine served in a friendly, vibrant environment. From the first crust to the last savory bite of meatball gnocchi or a comforting bowl of soup, each dish resonates with care and culinary passion.

    No wait today, on a Friday. The 3 of us got there early at 4:00 pm. There are many regular folks here and I meet once leaving as we enter. He said the fish fry was delicious. The fish fry was delicious and so was the pizza (traditional?) Kinda weird but I asked for a leinenkugel beer , which they didn't have so the bartender gave me an IPA beer which you know is okay, but not my favorite. They could use another server too. If we had our check sooner, they could have had our table sooner. Like I said, the food was great.

    Pizza was good, could’ve been cook for one more minute or so. But still delicious. Good long islands, atmosphere was your typical Kenosha bar. Would definitely go back.

    Went there with a friend and they did not disappoint. I started with the cream of lemon and chicken soup. Good and thick with plenty of chicken!!! My friend ordered a glass of wine which was 3/4 filled!!! We then ordered a thin crust sausage, mushroom and onions pizza. It was very flavorful!!! Will definitely go back there again. We had a great server by the name of Autumn.

    Kenosha has several excellent Italian end of the spectrum restaurants and Darangos is one. Food is fabulous. Not Michelin 5 star fancy, but hearty, generous portions, good service and not crazy expensive. The restaurant's one weak point is square footage. It fills to the brim on busy nights. A bar cuts across one corner of the space so it fits that bill if you just want a beer or fancy drink ... they have a classy drink menu if you want to indulge. It's family friendly and has a bit of a blue collar history and feeling.
