WOWSA!! I just picked a place when we were loading up the rental car at O’hare and boy did I pick right. Some of the best Italian food in the US. I’ve lived in Italy and I can honestly say it’s spot on! Even my kids and husband said they would make a special trip here again

Excellent food and wine, great service... it was a very enjoyable experience. The staff were all extremely personable. We inquired and learned about the origins of how the chef and ownership group came together. Ask for their different "cellos"... they make/offer more than Limoncello... the homemade Pistachiocello was outstanding. They also have a private room in the back of the restaurant for overflow and parties. Can accommodate around 40 ppl. Will definitely be going back.
