Wanted to try this restaurant because it's new in the neighborhood. Felt like a good value for date night. They have done a nice job with the remodel. Food was very good. There was a live singer and it was nice - good music and not so loud we couldn't talk/hear.

We had such an amazing dinner for our anniversary last night. We made a reservation and were seated very quickly. We had the pleasure of having Crysta as our amazing waitress, she was very polite and attentive to our table. We ordered the lobster mac and the lamb shank, both were phenomenal, the lamb fell off the bone and the lobster mac had big chunks of lobster! Near the end we were surprised with a complimentary anniversary strawberry shortcake<3 We were given Excellent service!!!We will definitely be coming back in the near future.

Really lovely. Impressive service from Allen! Beautiful room. Wish you could avoid entry through nasty smoky casino. Use side entrance- it helps! Food was great. My daughter had prime rib steak, loaded baker and salad. Huge! I had braised shortrib mashed potatoes and creamy potato soup. Again, huge and tasty. Could do without addition of brandy etc in soup and sauces. Unnecessary and not to my taste. All their ingredients are so fresh that those additions just don’t improve flavor. Bread was warm and fresh, Himalayan salted. Really wonderful sourdough and brown bread. Crème brûle was beautiful and tasty, but again, quit with touch of brandy. Took away from an almost perfect dessert. Loved the little rolled cookie. My daughter loved her lemon drop martini, shaken and poured tableside. My iced tea was refilled repeatedly. Very nice dinner and very fair value for what you get.

I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel so welcome and taken care of. The service was absolutely top-notch—friendly, attentive, and fast without feeling rushed. And the food—wow! Hands down the best Italian cuisine I’ve ever had. Every dish was cooked to perfection, packed with flavor, and beautifully presented. You can tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the attention to detail really shows. I highly recommend this place for date nights, family dinners, or even just treating yourself to a fantastic meal. I’ll definitely be coming back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

About the restaurant
Mangia Tutto features both Chicago “Deep Dish,” the perceived Chicago-style pizza; as well as, thin crust square cut “Tavern Style” pizza. As native Chicagoans we will tell you while we relished the occasional “Deep Dish” pizza, they were often only enjoyed on special occasions. The thin crust pie is the true “Chicago Pizza” readily available in any Chicago neighborhood.

David’s grill is the best! Many of us go there frequently for breakfast meetings, lunch meetings, dinners or spontaneous occasions. The staff and servers are always great and the food is good, too. It’s a great local sitdown restaurant with great atmosphere and people.
