    Good appetizers and pizza with good variety of toppings and styles to choose from. Customer service was friendly and attentive. Would recommend making a reservation because it can get very busy.

    Lasagne
    Margie T.

    Our waitress, Teresa, with a beautiful smile, greets my husband & I with a glass of extra straws & napkins with 2 glasses of water & lemon... Huge stars!!! Listed on the Specials menu, the ravioli was outstanding!!! Really flavorful! Marinara sauce was delicious!! My husband enjoyed himself so much, he cleaned his dish of lasagne! I usually have the lasagne but I craved something different. Considering they're more famous for their pizza & pasta. I took a chance to try their salmon. Surprisingly, it was phenomenal!!! Exactly how juicy I want it. I hate onions, so there wasn't too many. There was plenty of zucchini, which I love!! Win, win, win!!! We are there pretty often. I can't wait to go back for more salmon!! It is graduation season, so they were pretty packed for a Thursday night. To our surprise, everything came out perfectly!! Wait wasn't too long.

    Came here for a team lunch and enjoyed our time here. We ordered family style and shared a bunch of pies and salads. Our service was attentive and we received our food fairly quickly considering how large our party was. I especially loved the margherita pizza!

    Reasonable prices

    Parking lot makes it easy and the Christmas decorations are over the top fun! Our server was amazing. We had a group of 9 and we were able to make a reservation on the weekend of Black Friday, pretty last minute. The place is massively large. Food came out fast, even the deep dish didn't take as long as some other places. It was good, not my favorite pizza place, but we like the food and the prices are reasonable. Bc of the ambiance, friendly service, parking lot, reasonable prices and clean bathrooms, I give this place 5 stars. I'm sure the pizza is a favorite for some, but as a vegetarian, I thought there should've been more olives on my olive and cheese deep dish pizza. There were very few and it felt like it should've been simple and flavorful, but it felt like it was just lacking that certain je ne sais quoi. It's an order I do a lot for pizzas, so I guess I was expecting what I am used to- Simple and flavorful, but I felt it was just not it. My kids got a margarita type thin crust type pizza, and they liked it, but said it was also not their favorite. We tried it and agreed. The zucchini sticks were great, as was the artichoke dip. Also, I'm fr California, and I do feel like I'm an expert on Asian food, NOTan expert on Chicago deep dish by any means lol- but just for my kids and myself- we prefer a few other other spots in Chicago as far as the taste of the pizza more than this one. It's just personal preference though, nothing against the quality of the pizzas here. I do recommend this place though, it's really fun and the food is good!

    Tavern Pizza (Pepporoni and hot honey)

    What I love about Connie's is how unassuming it is. From the outside, you don't know what you are getting yourself into. The brick facade is reminiscent of Macaroni Grill. Once you walk-in, the restaurant opens up into a lovely, decorated old-school Italian space. It's clear this is not a 5-star Italian restaurant. And it doesn't have to be. The food and service also speaks to the vibe. Service is attentive and the food is surprising great. Don't judge this restaurant by their frozen pizza business. Everything about the food here is quality, fresh, and flavorful. We came here for Thanksgiving and their turkey meal special was fantastic. Recently, we came again and ordered everything bolognese spaghetti, chicken vesuvio, their new tavern style pizza, and kid's meals. The tavern style pizza is among the best in the city and they just started making it last year. Do not sleep on Connie's. It will exceed your expectations.

    Deep dish and pan pizza and stuffed pizza
    Julian G.

    First off, I have to say you know this place is iconic as soon as you walk inside. It's a massive building with lots of old timey decor (feels like an old tire shop or something?). Great place for groups and a good place to stop after a Sox game. While the ambiance is certainly appealing, the pizza isn't quite as special. I enjoyed the stuffed pizza (margherita) as it added a unique dimension to classic deep dish. Otherwise I felt the pizzas weren't as flavorful as other deep dish places in the city. I also may just be partial to caramelized crusts, but their crust style wasn't particularly noteworthy. Still, I'm glad I tried their various pan pizzas to compare. Would order the special chicken salad again. Service was good, even if we came right before closing. Wouldn't go out of my way for the pizzas but definitely worth checking out.

    What is the yelp secret dish? In sure it's good, but I ask because my group doesn't eat pork so usually we get veggie pizzas.

The restaurant is not busy at all. We were seated right away. Our server was nice and attentive. We ordered pizza and pasta.

If you have seen any of my other reviews, I always get a meatball when I'm at a place that has them. They almost never live up to my expectation. But this place has the new gold standard for a meatball. It was everything you want. It is fork tender, full of flavor, no chewy ground up bits. The pizzas were authentic and thin. With fabulous house made red sauce that wasn't too thick and overwhelming. The flavor was A+ The cocktails were so good! All made from scratch with love. The ambiance was cozy and comfortable. Perfect for a group or a date. They have a full bar, and also great seating with perfect lighting. This is a new favorite for me in the city.

Every time I'm on that side of town, I try to make it a point to stop in. The customer service is always top-tier, but one of my favorite things about Il Porcellino is the ambiance. It has such a warm, inviting atmosphere that works perfectly for a date night, dinner with friends, or even a family get-together. It just has that classic Chicago feel that makes the entire dining experience even better. And the drinks? So good! I highly recommend the Old Fashioned -- definitely one of my favorites. I always order the fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp. The first time I had it, the sauce was a little thicker, creamier, and richer, which I personally preferred. This visit, it was still very good, just a little lighter than I remembered. Either way, I enjoyed my meal and would absolutely order it again. Overall, another great experience. Great service, beautiful ambiance, delicious drinks, and good food. I'll definitely be back because Il Porcellino has become one of those places I look forward to visiting whenever I'm in the area. 10/10 -- highly recommend!

The reservation we got was for the patio, but when we arrived, they didn't have a table for us. We waited probably an extra 15 mins and then the lady was able to arrange an inside table for us. She had been getting a bit of lip from folks coming in just before us, and so she definitely seemed to be dishing out some lip herself. I think that should have been a better experience. I will acknowledge that we did appreciate a table inside eventually when the one just outside wasn't there. Our server once seated was like, amazing. To me she made up for the passive aggressive comments from before. She was so patient and well-spoken and all. Seemed like she was from a Michelin-star place. So to start, the Caesar salad was ok. What was nice in there, it had these crispy chips of some kind in the salad. Overall, the dressing could've been a bit more caesar-y. Then we also had these truffle oil mozzarella sticks and those were pretty amazing. Served with marinara sauce, which was pretty good. But the sticks themselves were like so cheesy and gooey and freshly made, it was great. Then for the mains, we had a vodka pasta and one other one. Both were vegetarian pasta options, which is great. Both had really nice flavored sauces and the pastas were also done right. I forgot to ask for crushed red pepper as some spice boost would've made things even better. Also, one of the pastas was a gluten free - and it was really good - in the sense that I never would've guessed that it was gf. It's a corn-based pasta, in case anyone wants to know. I really wish they had an eggplant parm, but unfortunately they had only chicken and veal parms, only. Lastly, and to top everything else off, we had a soft-serve almond-caramel (not the exact name) gelato. Wow, that was SO good. Nutty flavor and creamy rich. Probably the best course of the night. Just outstanding. I chose it based on ChatGPT recommendation and it was just spot ON. Definitely a place I'll come back to.

The restaurant is intimate, warm and moody in the best way - exactly the kind of place you want to settle into for a late dinner. We started with the truffle mozzarella sticks and burrata, followed by the rigatoni vodka and chicken parmesan. That chicken parm was easily one of the standout dishes of my entire Chicago trip. For dessert we had the citrus olive oil cake, and then they surprised us by gifting the table their soft serve. We absolutely did not need another bite of food at that point... and yet somehow that soft serve disappeared. It was amazing. And the service? Top notch. From beginning to end, the hospitality matched the food and atmosphere. Seven stops, a ridiculous amount of food, and Ciccio Mio managed to be the perfect finale.

Nothing special but not bad (which is good coming from me since I'm not usually big on kale). Of course all of the pastas were yummy. The fusilloni was definitely my favorite from the noodle shape to the sausage and cheese. The ricotta dumplings were suuuuuper cheesy which I really liked (though I could see why others wouldn't) and had a melt in your mouth softness. The rigatoni was tasty, but kinda just tasted like a normal red sauce so would probably try something more interesting next time. We really enjoyed the chicken parm, too. Not as good as the pastas, but definitely tasty and the basil was a good touch. We finished with the guava cheesecake sundae.

The fritto misto was ok, the breading tasted like it was old or had been sitting out. Not as crispy as we'd hope. To be honest felt like frozen calamari quality. The Alla Vita chopped was pretty standard, kinda reminded me of Olive Garden salad lol. The stars of the meal were the tagliatelle and cappelletti pasta. Both were super flavorful and pasta cooked well. The bone-in ribeye was a little on the sweeter side, definitely lacked a crust and salt. I'd pass on the steak IMO. Our biggest qualm was the timing of the dishes coming out. The pasta came out 30-35 minutes after the appetizer and salad which is fine, but the steak coming out 15 minutes after the pasta kinda ruined it. We'd love to eat the entrees (steak and pasta) together, and not finish our pasta first or let it go cold then eat steak alone.. ya know? We had ordered crispy potatoes but cancelled due to the wait. Ended the night with mango passion fruit sorbet with a prosecco float. Big mistake on the prosecco float haha it was so tarte and bitter, would def recommend trying the sorbet alone! Overall, glad we finally got to try this place. Focus more on the pastas and skip the steak. Very beautiful inside.
