Tuna tartare was very fresh as well as their specialty dish Ossobucco veal shank. Blood orange margaritas were definitely the hit of the evening. Christian & Lupe definitely made us feel part of their own familyMore infoIL GIRASOLE TRATTORIAPrice: Moderate• Italian• Logan Square•4.5
- VValerieChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoI went with a group of friends for my birthday, and it was the best decision I could’ve made! Although we were all late due to downtown traffic, the restaurant was willing to wait for my entire party to arrive while we waited at the bar. The food portions were outstanding! Everyone said that their food was delicious! The restaurant is beautiful, and it was an energetic vibe, but not too noisy. Our waiter was excellent. He went above and beyond even taking a picture of us outside. Although it is pricey, I would definitely go again. More infoSTK – ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• River North (Chicago)•4.1
