    Opening its doors in 1952, Club Lago has anchored the corner of Superior and Orleans since before the neighborhood River North grew up around it. Serving classic Northern Italian specialties from the Garfagnana Valley in Tuscany to steaks, chops and signature sandwiches too, the Lago's staff will recommend the perfect entree for whatever mood you're in.
    Third generation owners GianCarlo and Guido are pouring the wine or serving the veal--it's a family affair. Time warp back to the fifties with a glass of chianti in a plush booth in the bar or hold court at one of the tables in the back; Club Lago's ideal for the first date, a meal before the theater or a game, or whenever you're looking to relax to great food and be a regular in a family joint.
    Some call it "retro," we call it home. Benvenuti, come on in!

Discover Chicago

Despite what some believe, Chicago's nickname of the Windy City is attributed to noisy politicians rather than the lake breeze. No matter where the wind is coming from, visitors should be ready to enjoy some amazing local food. From vegan to carnivore, if you eat, Chicago will thrill. A visit to the Second City will call for a second slice, so be sure you show up for famous Chicago deep-dish pizza with a large appetite. This world-class city is a whirlwind of things to see and do and features foods from all over the globe. Fans of spicy Thai food will revel in the many choices available, and fans of coffee will be delighted with the many shops that serve fresh-roasted cups of joe.
