The menu was extensive filled with interesting choices. The food lived up to it. The real deal for an Italian restaurant and a good location in the heart of Andersonville. Prices very reasonable for effort put into it. Cool contemporary interesting looking crowd and the service was friendly and professional. Busy and noisy on a Saturday night

The host was very friendly and communicative. It was restaurant week so it was pretty busy, but she was smiling and explaining when the table was going to be ready. Waiters were excellent. Very attentive and present at the table. The food was perfect. Fresh and light pasta, perfectly prepared salmon and the tiramisu was one of the best ones I’ve ever had.

Been coming here for past 10years+. This is my favorite upscale Italian restaurant in Chicago. Tonight we had the mussels, beet salad and NY strip steak. All delicious and perfectly prepared.

As usual, delicious. Wonderful choices. Reasonably priced. Excellent service. Wish Anteprima were closer to my home. The trumpet mushroom starter was absolutely as good as our server claimed.

Came here for our 2nd wedding anniversary. The food was delicious. Loved the portion sizes, perfect for a 3 course meal! They even put a candle in our dessert. Would recommend to a friend.

Our favorite date night spot! Our server always makes us feel special, and whatever we order is always fantastic. I tend to get a fish entree because they do fish better than anywhere else I've been, but you can't go wrong with a pasta dish or the lamb entree. I got the bucatini this time and it was entirely too delicious. I think I finished it in 15 minutes, which is a feat for me as it was a full serving of pasta. We always end by splitting the chocolate hazelnut tart dessert - it never disappoints. The edge of the covered patio gets pretty cold when it's snowing, but the internal patio is heated well.
