Absolutely fantastic Italian food from a person who has grown up on Italian cooking! The fried calamari was not over cooked and chewy but just perfect, softly giving way to the bite with a crisp delicate exterior. The mussels were fresh and of a plump juicy sweetness reminiscent of the ocean. Although I am generally not a person that favors cheese-based dishes due to their heaviness. I can not give a high enough recommendation for the Eggplant Rollatini antipasti! The lightness of the ricotta and spinach perfumed by a strikingly garden-fresh tomato sauce that is beyond the senses has become one of my favorite dishes!
I visited this restaurant for a lovely Sunday evening date, and we opted to sit outside, which was delightful. The staff was incredibly friendly, and my favorite aspect was the very reasonable prices! We ordered three adult beverages, an appetizer, two main courses, and dessert for just $120. The seafood was fresh, and the pasta was so well-seasoned that I didn’t feel the need to add salt, pepper, or even extra Parmesan. We'll definitely be returning!
We celebrated Christmas Eve with a large group at this restaurant and everything went perfectly. The staff was attentive and friendly throughout our visit. The highlight of the meal was the eggplant, which was absolutely phenomenal. The flavor and texture were spot on, and it's the main reason I'll be returning. It's definitely worth a visit!
This was unquestionably the best dining experience in the city. We celebrated a birthday with a group of six adults and a nine-year-old. Our server was incredibly accommodating, and the food was fascinating, delicious, beautifully presented, and enjoyable. You really can't go wrong at this place!

After two visits, I can confidently say that the food is fresh, perfectly seasoned, and expertly prepared. The cocktails are outstanding. The restaurant is clean, offers plenty of free parking, and is just steps away from the Metra station. We will definitely be back.
Wow, literally the best Italian food I’ve ever had. The decorations are so cute and cozy and you feel like you’re at your Italian Grandmother’s house. The chicken piccata was exquisite and so was the lasagna. Will most definitely be coming back here!
The food is a bit on the expensive side, in my opinion, but the inviting atmosphere, outstanding customer service, and excellent quality of the dishes more than make up for it. They are also very attentive and accommodating to any food allergies.
Definitely a small family restaurant feel. Food was sooo good. Service was amazing! They were so kind to us and our 3 kids. Definitely try the tiramisu! Forgot to take photos it was so good!
