As always, Thomas and his crew always delivers the food was great atmosphere was great. I don’t see how you can go wrong. Five star service all the time above and beyond.

Thanksgiving dinner. My wife and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously. First of all, it's a beautiful space; comfortable tables, tasteful color scheme and excellent lighting. Larger room than we envisioned. We opted for the Pasta Fagioli as our appetizer; "sidebar"....we had dinner several weeks ago at Volare in downtown Chicago and thought the Pasta Fagioli was the best we had ever had. It was remarkable at The Italiano and is the new standard bearer. For dinner we had the NY Strip Steak Parmigiano and the Fleet and Sausage Cacciatore. Both outstanding and cooked perfectly. Surprisingly, they don't offer a simple pasta as a side dish (which my wife likes) but the chef accommodated. Also delicious. If we have a small complaint it would be with the attentiveness of the server. Nice man and very helpful, when requested. Otherwise, we waited too long to have our table cleared and leftovers boxed. Small issue but there is little room for error at these price points. Great wine list. We enjoyed the 2023 Balade Pinot Noir ($85). Before tip, all in, $240. We look forward to dining at the Italiano again. I should mention the beautiful lounge area and piano player. Perfect.

It was our first time dining there, and I have to say that it was a fabulous experience. The place is gorgeous inside. The food was exquisite, but the best was the service. Shane was one of the best servers we have ever had. Absolutely outstanding!

WE had the best experience at Dominick's for a team business dinner. I had requested a quiet area and they were able to make this work for us, which I extremely appreciated. Nick, our waiter for the evening was INCREDIBLE! His recommendations were fantastic and accurate. Love how they are a good team and they work together to give out an excellent customer service. Definitely will be returning in the future. Thank you for the amazing service and experience.

Salmon Caesar Salad is the best, always a great experience when dinning at Olive & Ivy. Service (Charlie/female) is such a treat, very attentive. Thanks again!
