“My two friends and I had a lovely evening at Convito Cafe. All the staff with whom we interacted were very pleasant and professional, and the food was quite good. Almost best of all, they kept the music soft, and we were actually able to converse with each other without having to shout - something that is becoming increasingly difficult in many restaurants. Thank you!“
“Visiting the Bahai Temple nearby, JPs was an easy walk and well worth the stroll. Immaculate and charming inside, with large rectangular checkered covered tables and benches perfect for family or casual reunions. The menu catered to a range of tastes, and designer Pizza selections were extensive. We ordered spinach salad with beets and walnuts, and the North Beach pizza. We watched our gluten free pizza dough being rolled through kitchen doorway. The cheeses were unique and exquisite. Easily the best GF pizza I've tasted. But there's more. Dishes were delivered to our table with personal care, and coffee arrived in a full pot - a dark roast freshly hand filtered. This cafe is full of surprises and a momentary journey to a vacation setting. Please add JPs to your secret get away list.“
“I was born in Brooklyn, New York and came to Chicago 50 years ago. I have been searching for New York pizza throughout the years. What most places call New York pizza does not pass the muster. After all these years I have finally discovered NY pizza at Pizza by Sal in Wilmette. Thank you!!!!!“
“Really can’t think of anything that was missing from our visit to Neapolita! Came here for a quick bite before catching the train and sat at the bar for a glass of wine, the burrata, and a bowl of the kale and bean zuppe. It was outrageous how simple and delicious those things were, so I ended up ordering a pizza to go! The pizza had to be reheated but it was still amazing. I’d love to go back. Thanks for such quality service and food!“
“This is a takeaway location only.We have been coming here for many years, many years. The pizzas are always hot, ready and tasty. The folks are always fast, friendly and effective.For us the best deal are in the holidays when you can buy $100 gift cards and they give you a $20 bonus coupons. What a deal. But the bonus card have to be used with 2-3 months.“
“Excellent food and amazing customer service !Spacca Napoli never disappoints. The ? are amazing! Definitely recommend visiting. Reservations are recommended for an evening visit .They have daily specials and you can order online too for pick up.“
“We went to Mia Francesa for dinner on Saturday, our server Alfonso introduced us to the new antipasto, the agnolloti and the pollo Milanese were delicious! We finished with the carrot cake. Great experience the energy is unique. We were happy to see the place full!!! Alfonso is a fantastic server, very welcoming, friendly, and really knows how to make the customer's evening a fantastic one!!! We will definitely be back for the delicious food and the fantastic service that Alfonso provides at Mia Francesca.“
“Eravamo in 4 a cena e siamo rimasti soddisfatti sia del cibo che del servizio . Il locale era pieno di gente ma la cameriera Maria ci ha serviti velocemente e in maniera simpatica e professionale. Le pizze che abbiamo mangiato sono state ottime. Ristorante consigliato.“
“2nd time coming and was bit disappointed. There was few open tables in other parts of the restaurant for group of 4 and they sat us by the door. Every 2-3 mins the server or someone would come up to see if we wanted to order something and barely gave us time to look at the menu. Even during dinner we felt rushed asking us if we want everything then giving us the check before asking if we wanted something else. Overall the food was good but service was very rushed.“
“From the moment we stepped into Munno Pizzeria and Bistro, we were greeted with a warmth that only foreshadowed the delightful evening ahead. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between elegance and comfort, making it an ideal setting for any occasion.Each dish we ordered was a testament to the chef’s mastery over Italian cuisine, blending traditional flavors with a modern twist that left us savoring every bite. The pizza, with its perfectly charred crust and innovative toppings, was a highlight, while the pasta dishes were reminiscent of a culinary journey through Italy.What truly sets Munno apart, however, is the impeccable service. The staff’s attention to detail and genuine care for the dining experience made us feel truly special.Our dinner at Munno Pizzeria and Bistro wasn’t just a meal; it was a memorable dining experience that we’re already looking forward to repeating. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, missing out on this Michelin-starred gem would be a mistake. Bravo to the Munno team for exceeding our expectations!“
“We've been wanting to try this place since it opened, and we are so happy we did! We came here for a date night last week, and everything was amazing. The food was delicious, the cocktails and wine were really great, the service was attentive and welcoming, and the ambience was inviting and cozy. We had a reservation and were seated right away. Our server, Miguel, was really friendly and took great care of us. We started with the fried meatballs, tuna tartar, and rucola salad to start, all of which were so good. We got the tagliatelle ragu and branzino for our mains, also of which were so good. We got the shortbread cake and chocolate gelato for dessert, which we loved as well. All in all, the food tasted very fresh and flavorful. We'll definitely be back here!“
“The food is unique, tasty, and filling. $8 gets you 1 arancini and a side, and is enough for the average person. I have a bigger appetite, so I tried 2 kinds: the jerkcino and peanutcino. Both were good and more than enough food. I'll be back to try the other “
“My guest and I thoroughly enjoyed our time this evening. Our food was wonderful, the ambiance was fun and lively. Our server "AMY" was a total professional .... Many thanks and look forward to seeing you soon.Parking: Hey, It's Chicago....“
“We were very pleased we chose this place right down the street from our hotel. The food was excellent, and the service was fast. I especially recommend the octopus and cannellini small plate - absolutely divine.The prices were also great. I would have expected to pay at least 50% more for a meal of this quality in the Chicago area.“
“Very good breakfast food that has a bit of an Italian twist. I have the croque madame and the Benedict pizza. We also got the all you can drink mimosas. There is a 2 hour limit to eat and drink. But you should not have any issues with the limit. Great interior with yummy drinks. I definitely recommend!!!!“
“A wonderful Italian style deli. Deli contains authentic Italian meats. Prepared foods are Wonderful and staff is willing to accommodate to special requests. Hands down one of the most authentic grocery’s in the area, right down to the fresh hand made cannoli! Enjoy.“
“I'd been wanting to try Bonci ever since I heard about it years ago, but never got a chance to visit their West Loop or Wicker Park spots.But this location is much closer to where I live, so I finally stopped in and tried small slices of the Fried Onion, the Margherita, and a Blueberry one.Really enjoyed all three (Margherita being my least favorite), and very much look forward to going back and trying more of their constantly changing offerings.“
“Came in for the first time looking for an authentic pasta experience and I GOT IT. Rick was super friendly and helpful, and arranged for us to eat in the shop after hearing we didn’t live nearby. Rigatoni ala vodka and pancetta spinach ravioli were fantastic. The chew to those noodles is out of this world. Focaccia with their house garlic olive oil was a great compliment to our pasta. We will absolutely return another day.“
“We went on a busy Friday night and our table was ready right when we got there. They do pack you in there but it didn’t feel overwhelming.The mussels and burrata appetizer were some of the best I’ve had in the city. The rigatoni and bucatini entrees are great also. We finished the meal off with the house-made limoncello which wasn’t too sweet or overly strong.“
“Exceptional Dining Experience Thanks to Outstanding ServiceI recently had the pleasure of dining here and was blown away by the exceptional service provided by the staff, particularly by Kim M.From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted warmly by Kim M. and made to feel welcomed. Kim M. went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of perfect. Her attentiveness and genuine care for our needs were truly remarkable.Moreover, the food was absolutely outstanding. Every dish was prepared with precision and bursting with flavor. The presentation was impeccable, showcasing the chef's skill and attention to detail.Not only did Kim M. ensure that our orders were taken promptly, but she also checked in regularly to ensure that everything was to our liking. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she was knowledgeable about the menu, accommodating our dietary preferences flawlessly.Overall, my dining experience at here was exceptional, thanks in large part to Kim M.'s exemplary service. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for not only delicious food but also top-notch service. I can't wait to return!“
“I have been going to Angelina's for years and it is one of my favorite places for Sunday brunch. The food and mimosas are always tasty and the staff is so attentive. I had not been in awhile and our server remembered me and asked how I was doing. It doesn't get better than that!“
“We hosted my son’s communion party at Porretta’s last May and we were very satisfied with everything, so we decided to cater for my mother’s birthday party. We ordered a few days prior and John was able to accommodate us in spite of the short notice.We had it delivered on time and with care. All the food was delicious but our guests especially raved about the Rigatoni Vodka and the mini meatballs.I am already planning our next celebration and will be using Porrettas catering once again!“
“Great place to celebrate ! Went to celebrate my husband's birthday. The serve(Antonio) was great , very friendly, accommodating and overall good service. The prices were good , flavor is there , the restaurant atmosphere gave me modern vibes with good upbeat lounge music. The menu has your standard options.i picked the lemon chicken which was delicious. The server came out with tiramisu and lemoncello ;without us asking for it I guess he overheard our conversation that we were there to celebrate a birthday, this was an excellent observation made by him,which I thanked very much. Kuddos to my paisano Antonio.“
“It was our first time, and I loved the classic atmosphere. I was intown for just a few hours and wanted pizza. I found Pat's from the 1 bite reviews. The thin crust did not disappoint. The draft beer list was nice, though they could have filled the glass a little. We also got a tiramisu it was delicious!“
“We visited for the first time yesterday and it was AMAZING! Great ambience, friendly staff, good music but the food was the star of the show. Absolutely delicious! Everything from the bread, salads, soups and entrees. We will definitely be back!!!“
“Best vpn pizza in the aria.. staff is on top of everything and service is great , fast quick and fresh then going there for years love it I just wish they would change up their money once in a while introduce new pizzas introduce new dishes but it’s 100% “
“Flew from Reno to Chicago to see my son play lacrosse in the Milwaukee area. Had to stay in Chicago over night due to problems with our rental car. Happen to stay right next to Frannie"s Beef. So glad we stopped for a Italian beef and sausage combo sandwich. I have been craving a good italian beef sandwich since my last trip to Chicago. This place is an icon. Definitely will be stopping here again.“
“Pasta D’Arte is a gem. Everything on the menu is fresh, scrumptious, and flavorsome. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about each of the food items. They have a large space, outdoor seating, and an area for private parties, but you can also find an intimate nook if you’re looking for something more romantic. I highly recommend going there for a celebration or a date night.“
“One of the most underrated pizza spots in the city! You can always get a table, excellent service and amazing pizza! Tons of gluten free options in addition to pizza including cheesy garlic bread! The house wine is always inexpensive and delicious!“
“Our first visit to Disotto. Seamus was our server, and was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. We split an Italian chopped salad, tried some Bruschetta with roasted apples and one with whipped ricotta and peppers-really great- and then moved on to some pasta. The Pappardelle Bognese and Cavatelli con Burrata were delicious. Everything we ate was outstanding. Seamus seemed to anticipate our needs-we felt cared for without ever feeling rushed. We will make Disotto a regular destination.“
“The food is authentic Italian and is delicious, especially the Rigatoni Con Sugo Di Carne!You can dine in to enjoy pleasant atmosphere and friendly, attentive service.It's in the center of a strip building between other restaurants that look alike so it's kind of hard to notice. In fact, I was told about the place and I live six blocks from it and drive by it almost every day.I have not tried the pizza since the Rigatoni is so good. If you like genuine Italian food, try it. You will return!Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchairs look like they can roll right in. It's all ground level.“
“If you want an amazing steak, this is the place! Steak at an Italian restaurant you ask? Yes. They have a dry aged tomahawk steak this is to die for. Mind you it is expensive, but so worth it. It’s huge and when we go as a couple we get it plus a few sides. It is also great for a larger group because then you have room to enjoy their pastas and desert. People usually think you go to a steakhouse to get a great steak. But I have found that many Italian and French restaurants offer these larger prime cuts and they are usually outstanding.“
“We were in the area overnight and looking for something authentic and quiet. We found both!! We didn’t realize it was byob but it didn’t matter. This is absolutely some of the best Italian food in the City/Suburbs. We live way south but will absolutely be back for the food. Great food, great service, wonderful atmosphere!!“
“I have been shopping at Nottoli for 25+ years. Their Italian sausage is the best. Yesterday, I called in an order for a party tray of 40 mini sub sandwiches at 2:15 pm. They were ready at 3:15 for pick up. The sandwiches were “award winning”. My wife brought them to a rehearsal for her church choir. Their staff is top notch. If you have not visited the store please do, you will not be disappointed.“
“Everything about our experience was five stars. First off the ambiance was so nice, stylish but comfortable and cozy. My four year old spilled milk all over him, the booth and the floor. The staff, Claudia (server), Andres and Kristine (host) were so unbelievably kind, attentive and responsive I don't think I have ever experienced that before. Kristine was so helpful and concerned she even offered me a clean towel to help dry him off in the restroom. I haven't even mentioned the food! Everything we ordered was delicious. We had an assortment of small plates (focaccia, Brussel sprouts, calamari, farro) as well as pasta and the burger was enjoyed by all. We would definitely be regulars if we were local.“
“Carmen, our server was fabulous. Table was quiet, which was very nice and we felt our conversation wasn’t listened in on.I selected the skirt steak with the chimichurri. My fiancé had the sea bass on special. Antipasto to share as an appetizer. Bread was warm, butter whipped.Cocktails were good. Would absolutely come back again.The only weird thing, the chairs are leather. The seat I had was clearly stained, not sure what with, but it wasn’t wet or sticky. But the brown stain was a little off putting, but I totally forgot about it once I sat.“
“Would I visit this place again: YesWas this place clean: YesOutdoor seating: YesWas this place hard to find: NoWhat would I change about this place: NothingWhat was my favorite thing about this place: Real homemade espresso and delicious food. The atmosphere is authentic and I felt at home again.“
“A fantastic place to have deep dish pizza in Chicago! A friend recommended this as we are from out of country. Would definitely come back again for their deep dish pizza stuffed crust. Their pizza crust is the best thing another the pizza (I personally don’t eat crusts on pizza, but here, it’s my favourite part). We also had a side of parmesan garlic fries and a Caesar salad which were a fantastic addition. Thanks Dimitri for the fantastic service!“
“Our Veal Marsala was great. We both had the same thing. The portions were so large that we had a lot to take home, and we have enough for another dinner. We were celebrating my wife's Birthday and they provided a delicious Italian Lemon cake, ice cream with chocolate sauce. Most of all our server, Maria, was excellent. Her Birthday is today, the day after my wife's birthday. We will be back very soon!“
“When in Chicago, you can't skip on this place. The pizza was amazing. This was my first time trying Deep Dish (Chicago Style) pizza, and I'm glad I went with the best for my first time. We also had the fried mozzarella and the bruschetta. The Bruschetta is nicknamed "The Best" and after having it, I now know why. Our waitress was super nice. She was an older lady with a Boston accent but she was so funny and took really good care of us.“
“Sapori is one of the best restaurants in Chicago! From the comfy and intimate atmosphere to the authentic Italian comfort food, it is one of the best places to visit when you are craving delicious Italian food and great drinks. Highly recommend!“
“All I will say is this. It’s what I said to the man running the bar. “It took a while to get a reservation here. Thank you for having us.” We will be returning there again. Amazing everything. Definitely checks the big 3 with 5 stars each.“
“Incredible food with very handsome cash register workers. 10/10 would go again! Growing up in Italy I can say they have the best Italian food I've had since moving to the Americas. Hopefully their business continues to thrive and become more and more recognized.“
“I loved it all. We were sat right away. We ordered fried calamari and the burrata with tomato and pesto. Very yummy.My main was the ravioli vitello in brandy, tomato and cream sauce, very delicious. My husband had the capellini with chicken and he was positively ooohing and aaaahing and that almost never happens with him!. My daughter had the clams with linguini and it too was delicious! We finished with the profiteroles which were nice but it is very hard to chew gelato so they would have been much nicer with a custard filling. The server was fantasticWe were very happy and ordered the eggplant entree to go,Definitely a great place to eat!!“
“I hadn't been here in about 15+ years. Finally came back. Ordered a sweet beef, hot beef, chicken tenders, & fries for $30. Everything was great! Prices are pretty low given the crazy inflation going on right now. Quick service. Will definitely be back“
“We saw that Chicago's Pizza offered a Mickey Mouse for children that they could build themselves and decided to take our children so they could have the experience. For our ourselves, we got a deep dish pizza, thin crust pizza, and fried cauliflower. We were all pleasantly surprised by the quality of our food, which was very tasty (and we had gone only for the kids' pizza).They're focaccia was superb. Unfortunately, the restaurant sent us Mickey Mouse pizzas that were already made (not made by our kids). Other parents will understand how your dinner experience is affected when you've promised a 5-year-old something all day and then that thing doesn't come to fruition-it ruins your dinner. The staff were nice and accommodating, and they did what they could to help, including bringing out dough balls to make it seem to our kids like they were making the actual pizza. In the end, it worked. However, the dinner was a lot more tense than it should have been feel (and contentious amongst the parents). This is a situation that should've been handled by management. If the place is going to cater to children, there are the sort of things that it must stay on top off. Most parents can overlook a flawed pizza, but not a child crying over dinner.“
“Friendly phone person to start out . Thank you, Katy . ( Some restaurants have lost sight of the importance of the first person to represent their business . No one wants to deal with a cocky and rude high school girl who can't get their order right. ) Excellent Pizza! Nice CRUNCH on their thin crust dough . Only very slightly thicker crust than most. And not burnt or charred . ( Not that I mind a good char taste ) The cheese is perfectly caramelized, so I wouldn't risk losing that by ordering a well done pizza . The crunchy dough stands up well to the slightly generous amount of sauce that is perfectly balanced . Extra thin sliced fresh veggies are also much appreciated .“
“Great food and safe. My friend and I went to PR Italian Bistro for my birthday. I had a Seafood stuffed lasagna and it was the best lasagna I have ever had. I am Italian so growing up I have had my share of Italian food including lasagna, spaghetti and every sort of pizza imaginable. It was just incredible tasting and better than any other lasagna I have ever had. The owner, Stephano was there ensuring things were getting cooked perfectly. Our ham & cheese appetizer was great, wine (very kind lady bartender) and dessert were fantastic. The owner even prepared a special Birthday dessert for me specifically. The atmosphere was great as well as the whole experience. This place is definitely a 5 Star Place and a 5 Star Review. ? My friend had lamb chops and linguine and it was cooked perfectly and tasted awesome as well. Highly recommend !!!“
“I've been coming to this bakery for at least 20+ years and it's always a treat. Whether getting a slice of their real Italian pizza or a cannoli or some bread/rolls or ordering a cake - you won't go wrong. Huge selection of Italian cookies and pastries as well as most other things that are baked. The biggest issue is once you get something here, no other place will ever be as good.“
“Excellent food and atmosphere!! I went here with my family and we had a great time. I had the langostino lobster stuffed ravioli in cream sauce and it was delicious I cannot wait to go back. My girlfriend had the penne farcita which was equally delicious!! I’d recommend the tiramisu and the peach cobbler for desert as well!!“
