• Pizza Bar • River North (Chicago)

Booked 2 times today

*Please note that all outdoor seating is first-come, first-served* Bar Cargo is a Roman pizza bar concept brought to you by Anthony Stefani, the son of notable Chicago restaurateur Phil Stefani. It was on a family trip to Italy that Anthony Stefani first fell in love with Roman-style pizza and where the concept for Bar Cargo came to life. After months of working with local chefs, pizzaiolos, and even a world pizza champion, the dough recipe and 96-hour rise process was perfected. The result is a thicker crust that is both light and airy. Topped with fresh & fun ingredients and baked in the Castelli ovens imported from Italy, the perfect Roman-style pizza is achieved.Outside of the Roman pizzas, the menu includes a wide variety of bar bites, sandwiches, and salads. The name Bar Cargo is a nod to the shipping containers used throughout the concept’s structure and the many authentic Italian ingredients that are being shipped via cargo containers for their famous Roman-style pizza.

Seafood options were first rate. Our oysters, branzino and scallops were as good as you can find in Chicago. For starters, our favorite is a Bellevue standard -- tuna tartare, spicy for some taste and calorie-ridden, and exceptionally satisfying! Its wine list, even by the glass, has splendid variety. My wife and I with a guest were there on the Saturday night after Thanksgiving. The service was attentive as usual, prompt but not hurried, pleasant and professional. Portions were, ah, ample. Although one dines here for the quality and experience, not to save money, its value justifies the prices!
